I just had a thought regarding the Unequaled Obesity heroic ability.  Under my proposal: 
2.  If a female character ends up with it, a fertility cult springs up in whatever province she goes through.  Scales slapped to Growth 3 while there, dropping back to local at one scale/turn after she leaves.  Local Dominion is reduced by the number of Growth scale tips (Ex. from Death 2 scale local Dom drops 5 points or to 0 if it was less than 5 to start with) recovering normally.  (This mechanic may only make sense in Early Era.) 
Discuss.

 (1)Ewww!  Female gets it, fertility / pop growth should _decrease_!  It'd be different if she got "Awe/Seduction/etc" with it, _maybe_, but .... 
 
(2)Though there are some pretenders that'd make sense for, or if the Sacred Dancer commanders could get "exotic dancer" for a heroic ability

 Responding to (1):  Back in prehistory/ dawn of civilization, that was (excuse the pun) a big thing.  Meant she'd survive a bad season.  Priorities have changed since, but 
at the point in history that matches up with the events in hand  extra weight was actually a positive.  Think Venus of Willendorf (sp?)
(2):  Pretenders don't get heroic abilities for being Hall of Famers.
