One thing I have begun noticing after being on about day 30 on Oblivian is a complete lack of kids. Their are lots of grown-ups walking around but no kids whatsoever that I have seen.

With it having a bit of a middle ages setting when couples would commonly have 10+ kids together (even though probably half of them wouldn't live very long) I would think putting kids in from time to time would be a good thing to do.
