I play in several different games and the ones that I love the best are the one that have an emotional impact. I have actually cried in those's games. There is nothing wrong with introducing madness into a game. There is a spell that even cures madness. Different people want differant things from gaming some don't want any real life issues in it all. That's fine it is why you should talk about what you want out of the game a head of time. Even if the players say they want real life issues there is always a chance you might add something that hits to close to home. In real life I have lost two babies and have been raped. One of my PCs was raped in game. The DM was horrified when he found out that I had been raped in real life. He did not go graphic detail nor was it gratuitous she was a captive. One of the other players who knew told him the after game. The thing is because the way it was handled I was ok with it. I don't freak out anymore over the subject. Nor was I offended rape can be a part of being a prisoner it is a form of tortue. It can be a plot development like an NPC who was raped by a dragon and gave birth to half dragon who later became a major problem for the party. I enjoy this kind of mature role playing others may not. DMs should ask female players a head of time if this is going to be a problem and if it is used maturity and sensitivity.</blockquote>
