One player is 24, the other two are in their thirties, so they can handle it.Violence? You betcha. Generally I am pretty descriptive of what happens, because I like cinematics. A monk rolls a perfect reflex save vs. multiple traps, I'm going to describe him dodging. Just like I'm going to say what happens when that Magic Missile hits for 25 damage and splatters the guy, as well as that arrow.However, the only times that I seriously click the Gore button is when it's going to leave a bad taste in their mouth. The party was battling a sect of worshipers to the Goddess of Pain, Poison, Disease and Suffering, who were trying to take over a city, by prophecy of their god. Two situations that come to mind: They needed a final sacrifice, to complete the Seven Sided Star, and thus the Talonites broke into their enemy clergy's Cathedral. The PCs come in, and find some acolytes brutalized; one's hanging from the ceiling, another's been nailed to the wall, after shallowly stabbed, and bled out. Another situation being, they were fighting the Talonites who had poisoned the water supply under the city. Well, the priestess dived under the water, and excaped. The Pyschic warrior that was on the water then lowered his sword, was giving up (because he was looking for healing), and the party agreed to his surrender. And about that time, the fiendish sharks she summoned from beneath the water got to him.  The description I gave to that really set the tone.As for Sex, well, yeah. The party cleric is in a romantic relationship with the party's tank, my NPC. We don't describe sex, but we do do the 'fade to black' after leading up to it. And, there's enough innuendo flying around (especially from the cleric's player), and another character is a female Half-dragon elf, who plays the flirt. She has been into some situations (posing as a prostitute to get into a ganglander's hideout, and accidently mistaking an actual client for the ganglord; she went home with him). As said, we don't describe it, but it's certainly there.Language: Yep. We play online, so no youngin's. Now, no gratitust spouting of profanity, but when they've delt with thugs, street thieves, and the like, it comes much more then normal. And I'm going to drop a foul-mouthed undead doorman to a wizard's tomb (Ala skeleton from The Last Unicorn).Other: Religion? Yep. I give the party cleric a lot of stuff to do, because he's a Cleric, and thus, should have some RP stuff attached to him. Like a wizard who wants to do arcane stuff, he should get to stroke his Divine fancy. I've had him perform a secret marriage for two nobles (Ala Romeo and Juliet), and last session, he concecrated a 'haunted' inn and the graves of three unfortunate victims to a fire; the party had happened upon an Inn that had a fire, long ago, and the 'memories' were still around.</blockquote>
