Ah, good old Book of Erotic Fantasy. It’s so gloriously stupid that everyone should own a copy. That table is by far not the silliest part of the book.
It’s only bested by the official sex rulebook for The Dark Eye, which is an April Fools joke that spiraled out of control and has actual rules for intercourse – deliberately bureaucratic and unsexy ones included purely as a “you asked for it” joke at the reader’s expense.
So basically your mitochondria decides your species?
Personally I like keeping it a little more complicated. It’s the same race as the mother, unless the mother is a ditto, in which case it’s the same race as the father.
At first I read this as “these species can fuck each other”. Then I realized that this is only concerning conception, all these species could fuck each other as they please.
I see that nymphs bang everything, makes sense. Sprites are only slowing down (with M for Maybe) at very large sized humanoids like Giants and Ogres, that’s pretty hardcore/disturbing.
If it applies to DnD’s cosmology, than it has to mean with viable offspring, because half-dwarves canonically exist in the Darksun setting and they’re called Muls.
I was gonna say something about ligers and tigons, but then I did some research (looked it up on Wikipedia) and I learned some stuff. It has no relevance to my life, but it did clear up my misconception that hybrids are always sterile! So, in addition to making $125 donating plasma, making a new friend at the bus stop, and almost immediately getting drunk, I learned that some hybrids can be viable!
I hate that this exists

Honestly, Elder Scrolls has it right: the offspring of two different races will always be the race of the mother, but with some traits of the father.
None of that funny crossbreeding stuff, just keep it simple.

Y or M means you can fuck that species. N means you can fuck that species without protection.
No way would I fuck a bugbear without some sort of protection…

Half dwarves exist in the default rules, they’re just indistinguishable from dwarves. Supposedly they’re actually pretty common.
There’s a small text at the bottom explaining the chart.
Go on…
Dragons and Nymphs
don’tfuck around. Got it.And fiends of course
How do you fuck a dragon?
With a car
I’m so glad this meme transcends platforms
Have you watched Shrek?
Cum all over its trea$ur
Adult dragons can shapeshift, so the same way you’d fuck anyone else.
By this I’m assuming lizard-folk lay eggs.
It never occurred me until now that half dwarves are not a thing
Muls from the Dark Sun setting are half dwarves. They’re sterile so I guess maybe they don’t count?

Be sure to continue your research with an image search, because they are cute as fuck.
