Yes. I meant cramps. And yes it is a poisoning of course. Many women died in the old days because of using the wrong dosage.

I think one thing is not listed here and was a common practice in the medieval days and still is to those who know what they are doing. It is a herbal tea used for abortion. It causes heavy craps and bleeding in the uterus of the woman and aborts the pregnancy. People who know herbs (modern witches/pagans) still use this way if necessary. Downside on this version is that you have to know exactly what you are doing because if you use the wrong dose it can lead to death. Yep that's a good point ! There are rules from the book of erotic fantasy detailing how birth shield can be used to cause abortions (page 123 book of erotic fantasy "birth shield" description) ... didn't list it here because I wasn't sure the topic would come up but if someone wants me to reprint the rules for it here on this thread let me know

I ended up reprinting part of a description for elves and intimacy in the book of erotic fantasy d20 book in another forum thread in someone's private forum so figured since I already typed it I might as well post it here.. please note that this 1) applies to surface not dark elves for the most part and 2) describes the view of a TYPICAL surface elf... any particular elf PC or NPC can decide how closely they follow the "typical" attitudes of an elf regarding this sort of thing... Gilthanas for example hasn't grown into his "bisexual" phase yet whereupon Laurana has (see important NPC's part of the forum) ... As far as Serinda it's completely up to her if the description below matches her in the slightest. Here's a somewhat edited copy of what I posted in the other forum thread I mentioned: (DM's note - I rely on the Book of Erotic Fantasy - yes it's actually a d20 book though not an official WOTC book - to obtain information on how the different races regard intimacy... here's an except from pages 23-24 of that book regarding elves though I've left out the parts regarding how elves regard marriage as amusing and "true love" as an illusion given their long lifespans - the elves of Krynn aren't as cynical as the Book of Erotic Fantasy maintains :
" Elf
" love is like summer "
Elves enjoy life and love. They tend to share themselves sexually and emotionally with elves, half-elves and humans of either gender. Their sexual relationships tend to be extensions of deep friendships. Sex is a form of sharing between two people. The sexual aspect of the relationship tends to be transitory, lasting from a single encounter to an ongoing affiliation of a few decades, both relatively short periods in an elf's long life. The friendship from which the sex developed tends to last much longer.
Possessing remarkably long life spans, elves often become sexual connoisseurs , with centuries to master techniques in the same way they would master a sword. Most elves go through phases of sexuality (which can also last for decades or centuries) in which they have sex with one or the other gender, sampling the pleasures provided by both males and females. By definition almost all elves are bisexual, although most find it curious to be labeled in this manner. Elves reach sexual maturity between 100 and 120 years.
Most elves find violent sex or sadomasochism to be distasteful and crude, although there are individuals who have mastered the finer arts of domination , honed by centuries of practice. "
