We know the mahjarrat undergo some sort of process, where each parent shares a part of their own power, to form the mahjarrat baby, perhaps we could use divination to effectively mimic this process? If DNA is required, then technically, couldn't we just yoink out some random mahjarrat's hair (or skin or something) and mix it in?

I say this because Enahkra clearly doesn't have any plans to start dating and if the divination thing is possible, it can save Enahkra enough of her own so that she won't die.

If that is a possibility, then I'm guessing the hard part comes into play, when we figure out how to get Enahkra to agree to it.

Of course, this plan will only be fruitful if the child is also female, but I suspect we can also fix that by getting even more sciency and somehow manipulate the chromosomes to be XX.

I'm gonna go hide away in my cave now, before an angry mob start throwing stones at me for being a mad scientist.

We know from Kharshai's dialogue in Mahjarrat memories that while Divination energy is somewhat similar to Mahjarrat energy, we would probably need an insane amount of it to do anything meaningful with. Far more than is feasible, which is why Kharshai dismisses the idea of using it to rejuvenate himself. So yeah, definitely not making babies with it.

While we're on this topic, I have a headcanon/theory that Enakhra's "feelings for Zamorak" basically amount to "he's the only one I can trust enough to reproduce with, take care of me during pregnancy, and get me through the next ritual alive. Also he has amazing abs" . It probably helps that the only other current candidates are a creepy loser (Zemouregal), a kid she's met like 3 times (Khazard), and a lunatic (Bilrach).

My other headcanon/theory is that Zaros doesn't give a fuck about the survival of the Mahjarrat as a whole, he only cares about keeping the ones useful to him alive. On the other hand, I think Zamorak is probably more interested in the long-term future of his species, which is why he probably fathered Khazarrd and essentially adopted Moia.

Also, I can't help but wonder if Female/Female Mahjarrat reproduction would be possible. We have no idea what Mahjarrat genitalia is like, we only know that females have breasts + probably a womb and the males don't.
You never were our brightest star, Khazard. 'Vermin slaughtered like lambs'? What does that even mean?

Ouch, I do kinda of have to agree with you on your last paragraph.

But I realize that your last paragraph is gonna piss off a lot of Zarosian fan boys. Get ready for the Zarosian crusade holy speech from the fan boys.

Plan B, is to go to Freneskae and hope some of the native Mahjarrat still survive.

...Or we get Enahkra and Zemouregal set up on a date?

We can play smooth jazz and grab a bottle of wine.
Scented candles and the skulls of your foes.
Romantic right? It's totally a viable plan C.

Let's just keep out of the risqué side of things shall we? The theory is sound and as I said the physical may not matter anywhere near as much as people think, and for this thread is off topic. If it was physical to any significant degree then Moia could not exist. Mahjarrat are just too different. My theory does away with those problems and explains the energy drain in a way consistent with what we know of life and anima. The purpose of adventure is to shine light into dark places,

I don't think zaros is overly interested in keeping the mahjarrat race alive. A bit, probably, because aside from seren, they're the closest relatives he has
but not 'overly'. I imagine he thinks they can deal with it themselves anyway and he has bigger fish to fry

if the mahserrat are still alive on freneskae, the whole crisis is over Carn

I don't think either of them particularly care about the survival of the Mahjarrat race. They both function around the fundamental philosophy of dealing with one's issues and rising higher because of that. As such, I suspect that both of them really only care about the perpetuation of the race insofar as the Mahjarrats' ability or lack there of to deal with the issue.

I see Zamorak's 'adoption' of Moia as his way of acknowledging her basically having been a mini version of him (subservient to a greater power, stumbled across a way to strengthen herself, and ultimately used that new power to take her freedom). I mean Zammy's first reaction to the Mahjarrat not showing up to the BoL was to blame them for the loss, and he doesn't seem particularly interested in returning Enahkhra's advances.

On the Khazard point, I personally believe he was accidentally conceived when Palkeera exposed herself (likely unintentionally to one of Zaros's attempts to cure the Illujanka's infertility. I mean, Vindicta's existence seems to indicate he may have unknowingly succeeded (although that'd make Khazard Vindicta's half (third?) brother). I personally see this is more interesting than him being Zammy's son as it gives him a conflict between blood and belief that the other Mahjarrat and Khazard himself can judge him for having (think: paladin with a necromancer for a father or vice versa).

With Zamorak as the father, you just get an awkward conversation as to how nobody knew who his father was before this.
