Anyway, it had a special ability of finding out every dirty secret in a city that just got better and better with levels. In the end it basically made me feel like I would have to let the player read all the DM material so he would know what is going on all the time. A social PrC that allowed the player to find out all the nice details by simply being inside the city walls. Or that's what the description said, so it's open to interpretation. And the best part was that you could switch cities and get all the nifty details in a few weeks all over again. Of course this required quite a few levels of the PrC, but I just feel that it destroyes the need for conventional spies and such...Actually there is a prestige class in Secrets & Societies (a Scarred Lands book) that is similar: Courtesan of Idra.  Trouble is it's restricted to a highly secretive organisation that accepts (almost) exclusively female members. And I have already cast that organisation into a role, within the campaign, which would make any member an enemy for the PC's. Of course should a PC be converted into this secret society then he might be able to take levels in the PrC. The main difference between the Courtesan and the Lover is that the first one actually requires roleplaying to gain any information, while the latter doesn't. That's why I don't like the Lover and have banned it from my games.</blockquote>
