[QUOTE="kalani, post: 6841714, member: 88085"] I don't use any tables myself but sometimes decide that a character is X or Y. Unless it comes up in conversation however, I don't draw attention to this fact any more than you would draw attention to a Herero characters orientation. It just is. I see no need to draw attention to it and force it into the limelight out of context. Sometimes it happens spontaneously as well. For example: the party was fighting bugbears. One of the female characters tried to shove a female bugbear. Her response; "oi. Watchit. I'm not into girls but he's into men". And that was how Ferdinand the gay bugbear was born. It wouldn't have gone any further than an offhand comment were it not for one of the PCs accidentally flirting with him. Ferdinand screamed "I'm going to eat you!" (In the literal sense". The PC retorted "I'm going to eat you too!" which gave it a whole new context. At that point Ferdinand started calling him sweety, mentioned that he likes it rough and his men unconscious and bloody, and took personal interest in KOing the female rogue in the party. She kept hitting him with her attacks and so he responded with: " we will snuggle later after I deal with your jealous girlfriend" (implying that Ferdinand thought he was poly). Based on the responses from both bugbears - it was determined that bugbear sexuality is rough (kind of like a Klingons). The female thought she was being hit on when violently shoved, and the gay bugbear wanted to bloody his potential mate as part of the flirting [/QUOTE]
