In the Empire the largest portion of the inheritance goes to the spouse or oldest daughter, and the rest is divided among the other children. Unless there's a will stating otherwise. Bastard children does have a claim, tho a small one. ->

#DecemberWorldbuilders, tell me about inheritance in your world. How does it work? When a person passes away, who gets their stuff? Do bastard children have a claim? Do they even have a concept of bastard children? For those of you writing monarchies, who inherits the throne?

Zaki trains every morning when he's able; strength, balance, dexterity. He trains dance when the opportunity arise and if he could he'd add swimming too. He's very athletic.
Serara doesn't train. She's active enough in her daily life; walking, gardening etc.

Or is that sort of thing not something they can/wish to do?

Not all my antagonists are evil. Some are, and knowingly so. Some do evil things out of naivete, or faith, or love. Very few antagonists see themselves as the villains. They have more of a "can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs" kind of mindset.

Good mornevening, #DecemberWorldbuilders! Tell me about your villain's relationship with their family. If you don't have a villain, pick another character who is either antagonistic or maybe just a foil for the MC. Does their villainy get in the way of having a family?

Good day, #DecemberWorldbuilders! How are reproductive rights and laws handled in your world? Remember, the ancient Romans had silphium which would prevent pregnancy. This is not too high-tech of a concept for 'low-tech' worlds (though perhaps not something that comes up).

Generational homes are very common in the Empire, in all social classes.
Usually it's the husband that moves in with his wife's family, unless otherwise discussed. The most unusual is a pair moving in together in a 'new' home, but it happens.
