Message: <blockquote data-quote="Remathilis" data-source="post: 870584" data-attributes="member: 7635">NUDITY IN MY GAMES: Character in my game have been nude, but not usually for reasons of sexuality. (You wake up nake in dungeon...) I've used nude or nearly-nude evil cult sacrifices as flavor text also. NUDITY IN MY BOOKS: After the 13 breasts in the Book of Vile Darkness (yes, thirteen), I'm not as concerned about nudity in a rulebook. AS LONG AS ITS RELEVANT or TASTEFULLY DONE. SEX IN MY GAMES: Sex has been heavily implied in my game, but not mentioned. PC's have implied it, as have NPC's. People go to other people's inn rooms, or meet another out for a rendevous, but nothing beyond implication.SEX IN MY BOOKS: I see no problem with implied sexual encounters between characters. I don't need details however.NECROPHILIA: A heavy theme of necrophilia came out in a polymorphed lich and a young maiden storyline. By the same token, I once allowed a half-vampire race (like Vampire Hunter D), which had some implications as well. BESTIALITY: Never touched the subject. It was hinted weakly at about the shadow druids in my game once, but never followed through beyond speculation and rumour. INTER-SPECIES SEX: What? No half-dragons? tieflings? aasimar? genasi? vampyre (see above), half-gods? drageloths? need I go on? PREGNANCY: No pregnant PC's, and only a couple of on stage NPCs. Most pregnancies are handled off stage, as is all births.HOMOSEXUALITY: Pc's in my campaign have been gay, even falling in love with an NPC in return. I've seen lesbian adventuring partners too, but they were NPC's in another's campaign. INCEST: Never touched the topic.POLYGAMY: Never touched the subject, but hinted at it for an empire outside of normal campaign bounderies...VIOLENCE: Only to emphasize a point. Graphic destriptions of blood, gore, and violence are used to describe the inhumanity of a scene, and a little goes a long way. I guess it depends on your definition of violence. Random fluids and organs aren't a part of combat however. (and I hate critical hit tables that make them that way...)TORTURE: Nothing brutal... Its describe in a frank, just so matter. Evil PC's have used torture in game before to extract information... but its not elaborated upon.MUTILATION: See torture. An evil PC lopped off a hobgoblin's ear as a form of torture (while the good PC's weren't available to stop) and our thief almost lost his hand.CHILD MOLESTATION/ABUSE: Very vaguely hinted at. Children have been slaves to evil governments, or found famished and beaten, but nothing sexual or graphic. MENTAL ILLNESS: I've had a mentally ill NPC before, and my god of maddness could be described as such, but I've rarely dealt with the issue.*** To be fair, these elements are not commonplace in my games, nor are they all elements I've personally used. Over 10 years of gaming, I've seen or used some of these techniques to heighten emotional responses from PCs and to give them moments off pause. In dramatically appropriate areas, they add a lot, abusing them makes them lose this affect. If you're worried about abuse because of BoVD/BoEF/BoED (people forget the WotC is releasing Exalted Deeds as mature) I don't think you have alot to worry about, most good DMs could come up with rules to cover this anyway, and most groups that can handle it already have.</blockquote>
