Message: <blockquote data-quote="Lanefan" data-source="post: 5288313" data-attributes="member: 29398">While I'm all for romance in the game and have been involved in all sorts of 'em, I really can't directly answer the original question here (what sort of NPC) for a few reasons:1. The answer would be different for almost every character I've ever played; which is quite a few.2. Even using an individual character as an example, I still don't necessarily bother defining a specific "type" of NPC (or other PC) he or she might go for; with the exception of at some point determining what gender(s) and-or race(s) {and in some cases, culture(s)} this particular character would usually find acceptable.3. I don't limit my in-character romance-chasing to NPCs.  Other PCs are fair game as well. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />That said, taking the 70-or-so characters I've played as a sample: some are almost completely asexual.  Some are simply repressed.  Some are normal enough.  Some are shameless flirts.  Some have what might best be described as variant tastes.  Some are as horny as satyrs.  And far too many of 'em die before I ever get a chance to either figure this aspect out or do anything with it. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />But if put to it such that I absolutely *had* to define an aspect of any given NPC that might help produce a romance it would be this: the NPC has run in the same party with me for long enough that we've faced danger together and come through it.Lan-"I met my (in-game) wife this way"-efan</blockquote>
