G-Thisis the level that mostfantasy roleplaying gamestake place at, with sexual activity entirely absent.
At most, there will only be vagueor oblique sexual references. Nudity is completely absent. Characters who

Love and Sex Between Player Characters


Sometimesplayers allow love to blossom betweentheir characters. This is understandable, as the characters
are not only companions, but also spendall their time together, fight unspeakable danger, and otherwise
stick together throughthick and thin, However,this sort of behavior can have some serious consequencesin
your game. Characters may get married and have children, or they could fall prey to jealousy, envy, and
other dark emotions.
Ontheplusside, allowing love between player characters provides a wealth of adventure hooks and moti-
vations. In an ideal situation, the characters look out for each other anddo their best to keep each othersafe.
The lovers can become a true team, complementing each other's strengths and weaknesses more so than
mere comrades.
However, just as with any relationship, love has its problems. Players may spend moretime having their
characters bicker over issues of the relationship or spend more time worrying about their love than the
adventure.In extremecases, play can get bogged down or sidetracked by the character's problems.
