Have the PCs in your party seen each other naked?

[RangerWickett]

My memory before 3rd edition is fuzzy, but I recall one PC thinking he was being seduced by another PC, only to discover she was a succubus who had been trapped in human form and who would be freed if she had sex. Completely naked, our heroic PC, um . . . thwarted her plan.

More recently, not so much nudity. I tend to run in cycles of serious games, then humorous games, then back to serious. In one humorous game, there was the half-Minotaur warrior-woman who slept in a pink nighty, a bard who was proficient in bolas and who we decided didn't actually wear clothes, just a huge number of bolas on his body. Like, fifty. I always kept track of how many he threw in combat, and it never went past thirty, so I guess he was safe.

There's been no large-scale seeing of each other naked. Even when imprisoned, man, the villains don't want to see naked heroes. They just frisk them, leave them in underclothes and ratty shirts and pants, and toss them in a dungeon. The party did once get to enjoy a sauna as a gift from someone who later turned out to be a villain, but I think they wore towels.

Um.. well, after being a sewer we needed to clean off. We made it to a temple, but they only had one big bathing place. Due to time restrictions we all ended up bathing while the priests took our clothing and burned them....
Thank the big green half-orc who seeing the water stripped and did a cannon ball into the water first.

Almost. At the beginning of the current adventure, they were captured and thrown into jail with nothing more than a filthy loincloth.

I have one char in my newbie group, now a half-genasi with high fire resistance... it happened more than once to him that he rolled a 1 for the Refl save and essentially his whole equipment got damaged by fire... once even the adamantine sword while he didn't take too much damage.

Therefore the group is used to see him naked and slightly burned now and then

In the current game, sure; the culture our PC's are in has public baths. In other campaigns, it depended; usually nudity might be required as a purification measure for some ceremonies or magical rites, so the spellcasters were sometimes seen in the nude, or the recipient of the rite. Otherwise it was usually at ponds or rivers where we'd stop to bathe or simply cool off with some swimming-hole relaxation.

Sure- as a matter of fact, we play the GAME naked. My DM said something about it being in the DM's guide, but I wasn't allowed to look...

I had one character (Schlugg, Half-Orc Bar/Sor) stroll into the common room of an inn naked after a bath. Nobody seemed to mind (18 str...). I've had another character (12th-level wizard) attempt to urinate on the leg of an Ogre. He missed, but so did the Ogre. The party bore witness to these events.

You're joking, right?

In my last campaign, there was nekkidity, but it was either offscreen or gender-separated. The campaign world had public baths which, in keeping with the source culture (medieval Byzantium) had separate days for men and women. (Once a male character, investigating a murder, sneaked into the baths wearing a dress, and nearly got arrested for his misdeeds). Another time, the characters in the wilderness found a hot springs, and the men and women took turns using it. During the men's turn, an NPC let drop a clue showing him to be a servant of an evil insane demon, but the only male PC in the group wasn't paying attention, so they didn't manage to stop him until he'd wreaked quite a swath of carnage.

In the campaign previous to the one we just ended (so about 1 1/2 year ago) I played a bard who was very, shall we say, free with his thoughts on nudity. Slept in the nude, walked out for breakfast in the nude on occasion (and usually got a lot of flak from the other party members for it). He never really understood what the fuss was about, it's not like he had anything to be ashamed of. He was actually quite proud...

Well, I will tell you that I've read every version of the DMG yet printed from cover to cover, and have yet to find that rule. But what my DM doesn't know can't hurt her...
