desperate mother event
i think this is a good idea but in adding this event you have made it nearly imposible to fail. the game needs some negitive events to balance this i think i cant wait to see how this unfolds

It does make it a lot easier with the free labor. I've been playing around with it a little and I had an interesting thing happen. One of the mothers that I sent away came back and asked to spend the night and she left the next morning and left the baby. I can't wait to see what else Blorf comes up with.

I have another situation with the outcast mother. I started my clan with a single woman and a baby boy which the game considers my brother.My son married an outcast (with a child) and my brother had a child which was the same age as the outcast's child.Technically they are not related so they should be able to marry but I get no prompt. Is the outcast's child now considered my son's child as far as the game is concerned?

Hi, the Outcast Mother is a test case right now to get the Story Generator systems in place. That Story chain currently has a variety of outcomes depending on if you let her stay or send her away at various stages, but I do tend to continue to expand on this chain in the new year as well as add many more types.

In most cases, any choice made will likely have positive and negative consequences. Right now, if the outcast mother is accepted, that does lead to another encounter, and that encounter will also be expanded upon.

Adding to the story generator is going to be my main focus for Update 14, which I will be starting early January. (right now having some holiday time with family, but I am excited to get right back to the story elements!)

@Grace1957 ahh, you found one of the less common Outcast Mother outcomes. I am hoping to expand on that one as well :)

Adoption wise, once an outcast baby is brought into the family tree, they are considered adopted so further cross partnering is prevented at that point. This generally keeps things cleaner from a book keeping perspective with the family tree and is intentional.

Update, the baby that the outcast mother left just grew up and married into the clan.

So my clan accepted her and she stayed I married her to the only man I had and she gave birth to twin boys and then her husband showed up and wanted her and only one of the twins back the only option was to send him away and he was angry and said that this is not the end but with twins if I would let her go one of them would stay since the husband only asked for one maybe that is just the game

The debuff for refusing to give up mother and child is very low. Maybe close trade with the clan for a year, for example. Or all interactions (workers, travelers, trade) with the clan give 50% less reputation. Or traders, workers and travelers from the clan are 50% less. At the same time, interactions with other clans have a reputation bonus, for example.

She was rejected from her Clan. Meaning she doesn't have a Clan right now -> thats why If you marry her and send your Male away with her they both belong to Clan outcast.
However i am pretty Sure some Bad sideeffects Like 50% less Traders/workers/guest from a Clan might be added in a new Event down the road...

Mr. Wiggles, I'm sorry if I confused you. I checked the family page and the game does consider the outcast my son's child now so, problem solved. You can relax now.Also, not sure where you're from but Grace is generally a female name. Happy Holidays!
