OK, DM I know got an Epic Level campaign started (16 levels of any one class gestalting another one, 5 of your choice to bump him up), and I decided to do a Paladin/Cleric of Aphrodite! Glimmerskin Halfling, CG alignment, 16 Pally/Cleric, 5 Annointed Knight, with an intelligent longsword, and only a few other magic items. However, I proposed, as a joke, originally, a unique ability for him, and the DM made some modifications to it and allowed it! Once per day, he can make a touch attack against one opponent, and they have to make a will save. If they succeed, nothing happens, and the use is wasted. If they fail, however, they are immediately compelled to go out and copulate, by whatever method their race uses. This only affects creatures with a gender, and only races who are not overtly blunt about sexuality anyway (eg, nymphs, succubi and the like are not affected). The DC for the will save is 20+my character level (currently 21)+ Aphrodite's Cha modifier, which makes it a save of something in the 60s.

There is no basis for the save to be that high in any case. Usually saves are 10+1/2level character level, or class level, using 1/2 Class level for levels above 20 (10 for PrCs) + CHA (or other relevant ability) modifier.

He should give up something, but the DC should be reduced by 20 from what you have. And it should be noted as a mind-affecting compulsion, which makes undead and golems, gods, and anyone with Mind Blank immune.

Well, he okayed it as it's presented above. Of course, that is a drastic change from what it was originally. My original idea (as I said, a joke I thought up) was that my character would jam the end of his sword into the ground, and a shockwave would go out. Everything within a 100-foot, heart-shaped radius of me would have had to make that save, or go out and try to concieve a child with one creature. He told me "Once per day, and only one creature"
