Weird random event table, homosexual encounters/events.

Deadguy can I play in your games? :) I'd be all over those. Especially #3 - I can easily see my paladin/bard bullying the rest of our party into a religious war, er, upheaval, over that situation :D
:o Why thank you!

Well, I like to include a lot of influences in my games. I have used stories which use homosexuality as an important element, and people's reactions to it (indeed it formed a central thread to a 10 year Vampire game).

I guess #3 is about tradition and heterosexism. Of course, in a magical universe there might be more consequences when love runs into divine mandate. Then again, the gods of love have a voice too! :)

#69: The players are to investigate the fact that many necromancers seem to take male halfling lovers or love slaves.

#88: The elected ruler of a city outs himself as gay. He's a very competent man, having steered the city out of a recession, but now the city (especially the council of elders) want him to step down from his office. This would have bad consequences from the city, since noone else would be capable of getting it out of the hole the former ruler mismanaged it into.
 


I have a few of my own.

A gay wizard and author has recently opened a book store in town, selling books of all types. To men who he strikes a fancy with, however, he gives them a romance novel free of charge. Those who even open these books are trapped inside the book, their image being burned into the pages as part of the various illustrations, their name inscribed into the pages as the main characters love intrest, who happens to be an idealized version of the wizard. Since these books immeadtly vanish to appear at the wizard enclave some distance away and the magic only works when the male reader is alone, no one knows what is causing the disapearances.

A male PC starts having somewhat erotic dreams involving a shapeless form, who looks familiar despite the lack of features. Whatever the PC thinks is going on in the dream, a voyeristic diviner has devolped a crystal ball and is implanting these dreams in the PC head, and he is watching them as the character sleeps. The sleep is otherwise restful, and the player recalls almost nothing about the dreams at first, but start to get more and more intense as the diviner gets more bold using the ball, to the point it plagues the character even when he's normall awake, slipping off into daydreams. The diviner is known to the party as the person they bought scrolls from in the town they were last in.

A known gay bard is set to be executed for the rape of a nobleman, despite evidence the bard was neither in the town at the time or that he had even met the man. The nobleman is making false claims so that another bard, a friend of his, will lose her biggest form of competition in the city. The wrongly imprisoned bard manages to slip out a message of help to a sympathetic guard, who appeals to the players to help free him or flatly prove the bards innocence.

A cleric of a god of valor and honor is kicked out his church when it is discovered he's gay. The clerics who forced him out suddenly loose their spells and divine powers, and pleed with the PCs to hunt down and kill the cleric, because they feel he has turned evil and cursed them. However, when found, the outsed cleric apparently still has his powers from the god of valor, and claims that they are being punished for their shortsightedness.

Two nights ago, a man was hanged for a crime, having relations with another man. The second partner fleed, and asks the party to retrieve the body of his lover so that a sympathetic cleric can cast Raise Dead on him. The man was a member of a wealthy trade guild, and his body is now buried in the families magically defended maze-like crypt.

In a place where the party is exploring, they wake a man who has been held in magical stasis. Preplexed why his lover, who was also in stasis, seems to have vanished, he asks the party for help in locating his partner, offering to reveal the location of a lost treasure hoard if they aggree and manage to locate him.

An alchemist who is nearly killed by a mob when it is discovered he is gay has started poisoning the men of the town he lived in. The poison is not deadly, but renders the people who drink it sterile after many doses. He threatens to taint the whole regions drinking supply with it in retaliation unless he gets an applogy from every person who attacked him. The fact that 2 of the people who ran him out of town have since died in the last week doesn't seem to faze him, he still wants their applogy.

One of the male party members henchmen or followers seems to devolp a crush on his master. He refuses to leave the party unless threatened, even to the point of paying back all of his fees to the party if he is allowed to stay. He will take up arms, even if they have no training for combat, in order to protect their master.

?Encounter?

A PC's new inamorata (or wife) wakens in his arms after their first night of erotic junctions to discover that she has changed into a youth.

Investigations will subsequently reveal that she will always change sex after sex, and that any children she begets will be born female and share her peculiarity, while resembling the man she lay with before lying with their mothers.

(I have pulled this one twice. The first time was when a dashing PC member of the military entourage of a powerful noble disported himself with the boss's daughter. The second time was when a PC scheduled to dance the male lead in an important ceremony got a bit carried away with his leading lady the night before the performance. These gender-bending 'monsters' are called 'gathins' in my world: once two players asked to play a pair of gathin identical twins.)

Encounter

The dashing but despotic ruler of a small city, who is normally very well guarded, falls heavily for one of the PCs. With a bit of encouragement, he might let the PC into his bedchamber, even give him the run of his citadel. This could be an unique opportunity for assassination, burglar, the liberation of captives, or a coup d'etat.

Encounter

A wealthy count, famous as a troubador, starts publishing epics in which the PCs figure as heroes. And rather later, lyrics in which one of the more charismatic PCs figure as the singer's beloved.

Encounter

An actress, appearing illicitly in plays, has been denounced to the Master of the Queen's Revels. On Saturday week she must prove that she is a man, or face a week in the stocks for lewdness. Which would be a disaster, since her company is commanded to perform for the Queen that night. Can the PCs arrange a magical sex change in time? Or can they make use of the fact that the actress is just the Queens type to effect a political solution?

Encounter

For reasons good and sufficient in themselves, the PCs must speak with King Rigid the Tiger-livered in private, and without going through the normal apparatus of the Court. They discover (it is Bardic Knowledge) that the key to the king's back door (so to speak) is his jongleur, Blondel.

G'day

As a result of a previous encounter, the PCs find themselves in desperate need of an item that will change a character's sex. Persistent rumour holds (it is Bardic knowledge) that one of the most prominent magnates of the city own a girdle that will do just that, and uses it every weekend. But rumour doesn't seem to be sure which of the four or five most pompous and strait-laced prominenti is the owner.

G'day

Encounter

After years struggling to qualify, a PC discovers that the secret initiation for a powerful prestige class or other privilieged group involves a year as a probationary member, performing ritual sexual services for a more senior member, who will ever after remain the character's sponsor, protector, and mentor within the group.

Encounter

There is a certain order of very valiant but utterly secretive paladins, who hold great wealth through the donations that people have made to them over the centuries, the property their members have left to the Order, banking profits and so forth. A person appears claiming to be an ex-member, who offers to testify that their initiation procedrues involve homosexual acts, if the king prosecuting the casse makes it worth his while to do so.

Encounter

A PC's newest cohort is a nice-looking, intelligent, well-made lad, diligent, resourceful, articulate, and streetwise. He quickly makes himself indispensible. But it gradually emerges that he holds to some queer magical beliefs that have to do with acquiring certain characteristics by eating or swallowing parts or exudations of animals that possess those qualities. He eats beef to make himself strong, cats' flesh to improve his dexterity, avoids milk not to become effeminate, and so forth. Anyway, he turns out to admire the PC for his courage and other manly virtues....

Regards,


Agback
