I enjoy my groups. We have a female player, but we’re all pretty comfortable with any sexual stuff we think about doing. Not to mention we play on skype so the whole “you’re right there” thing isn’t an issue.
Groups that try to do sexual stuff in D&D are usually better if everyone’s already friendly with everyone, as a word of caution.
I remember a girl player once who used this very line ” Hell I’m out of spells…let’s see…I know! I have a high charisma! I remove my clothing and attempt to catch the orcs off guard by flashing my t*ts! That’s like a charisma based stun check or something right?” I think the guy next to her nearly died…not sure if it was of horniness or laughter though….Ahem…I think the DM allowed it because it was soo off the wall it just had to happen…
Oh, the memories! It wasn’t a D&D campaign I was running; it was my old pan-Classic World of Darkness campaign. I was the Storyteller, of course (and I happen to be a male), and Tori — the party’s Daughter of Ether — happened to be played by a young woman (Cat, one of my friends from work); Tori had good Social Attributes (especially Appearance) and a high Seduction skill; her Appearance was a perfect 5 and her Seduction was either 3 or 4 at the time. Despite being female herself, Cat used Tori’s sexual wiles a LOT…which got her into a bind the one time when the party split up inside some Black Spiral Dancer warrens out in the Mojave Desert and Tori found herself cornered by two BSDs and a bunch of their depraved, thoroughly inbred Kinfolk…
Cat (as Tori): “Damn, this is bad. Okay, I act all cute and innocent and sexy, I loosen my blouse and say ‘Come, come, boys…and girls…I’m sure we can work something out’…I’m going to try seducing them out of killing me.”
Me (the Storyteller): “Seducing them? Are you sure?”
Cat: “I’m pretty good with Seduction, so yeah.”
Me: “All right. Manipulation and…no, wait…on second thought, Appearance and Seduction, Diff 6. Roll ’em.”
Cat: *rolls a fistful of d10s and aces the check* “Sweet! Four successes!”
Me: “Good news! The Black Spiral Dancers no longer want to kill Tori!”
Cat: “YEAH!!!”
Me: “Bad news! Now they want to chain her up and use her for breeding stock!”
Cat: “OH GOD NO!!!”
So Cat would probably like to remind us to use our characters’ Social Attributes judiciously. Fortunately, the party’s Wendigo, their Corax and their Verbena all caught up, killed the BSDs, routed the Kinfolk and dragged Tori out of that mess (minus most of her clothing and a few Health Levels; BSDs are *not* gentle lovers).
So you see, it’s not just the men who objectify female characters, and it’s not just the women who call them on it. >;)
Ouch! That cloak is pinned to that girl’s collarbone.
Nooooo… of course not. We call that a “Maaaaaaagic Cloak”
(That and I just wanted to draw a shortie cloak on her)
HA!
Is “flashing her knockers” a Standard, Minor or Move Action?
Just as well… WotC will errata it soon enough.
@ David: It depends on if her knockers are a small, medium or large weapon.
Wait…would those be duel-wielding or rather a 2H weapon?
Whoot!! That’s a VERY large weapon.
is it sexist if a female player uses her female character to seduce a guard? XD
