Message: <blockquote data-quote="Illrein" data-source="post: 405500" data-attributes="member: 3937">Violence: In my games, I use different types of violence for different moods. Usually, if I want a 'heartless' view towards the thought of violence, I'd have it happen "off-camera", so to speak. When I describe violence, it usually means that the players are in big trouble, and they've caught onto this tactic. I go as far as I need to, which isn't too far as it seems to draw a lot of out of game discussion.Sex: The only time I've dealt with this was in a mercenary game. One of the players pursued a female stage performer. I let him make a couple of checks and I told him, "That's it. You scored." In my personal theory, everything revolves around sex. Therefore, I try to avoid sex in my campaigns as much as possible. One of my fellow role-players tends to bring sex into every game, usually in the form of rape. This brings out a revenge motive for adventure hooks, much like Charles Bronson movies.Language: Out of game, we cuss quite a bit, maybe about as much as South Park. In game, however, there is little profanity. Language in my games is about the same amount of language used in Final Fantasy VII.Religion: My role-playing group is primarily atheist, with me being the only agnostic one there. We don't run into religious conflicts. We often share the same point of view of religions: anything organized is bound to fail.Politics: A hot topic in our group is political theory. In our group, we have a republican, a democrat, and various libertarians. Mainly, though, discussion arise about political actions against euthanasia, communicable diseases, totalitarianism, and the development of technology. Leave it to D&D players to debate matters like that. Nerds: You can't live with them, you can't live without them.</blockquote>
