Reason: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_birth#Terminology

we already have lore tags for twins, triplets and quadruplets

the world record IRL is nonuplets, so it should be reasonable to see in fiction, plus we usually have "multi" implications for up to 10 things, like 10 tails

Aren't these slightly excessive? Only 3 of those tags have even a singular post. Granted they're not canonised with aliases and implications and a category change yet, which might make it see a rise in use, and it would be nice to have them in the case a post needs it.

We might also need to tackle the question initially posed by triplets_(lore) about how many characters in a *lets would be required for it to be tagged. All of them? Or at least two?
