[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 7804458, member: 7006"] Just to make it explicitly clear... CapnZapp wants an [I]actual module[/I] that has a charmer NPC in it. Preferably where the adventure is ABOUT the charmer / seductor NPC. He doesn't need "ideas", he wants actual adventures he can open up and use at the table. Capn, to answer your question... the only one I can think of off the top of my head that has what you might call a "charmer-adjacent" type of NPC is 'Curtain Call', a 1st level Eberron adventure (I only remember it because I'm running Eberron currently). It involves a charlatan named Max Murlock who is posing as a private investigator and hired to find a kidnapped nobleman. Since he has no idea what he's really doing, he convinces the party to help him. The adventure, however, isn't really about him... he sort of falls by the wayside once the investigation gets underway. And while he's charming in a fraudster kind of way, he's not written as a seducer of any type. Nothing else is coming to mind. I know 'The Last Breaths of Ashenport' involves an entire community that is under the sway of Dagon and many are trying to get sacrifices for the demon (and thus one of the NPCs in it could be repurposed as a seducer-type character.) It's not a perfect fit, but at least the entire adventure is built around trying to get visitors into the town to be sacrificed... and thus an NPC who is a charmer and working to win over the party makes a lot of sense for the plot. Sorry I can't be more help. I'll keep thinking on it. I also don't know if there are any keywords one could use on adventurelookup.com to perhaps find some other ideas? [/QUOTE]
