Be completely honest: how often do you visit brothels and bathhouses during your campaigns?

Depends on the character.

Dragged kicking and screaming from the last one. Played a gritty Not -got with a homebrew setting.

My PC was a virgin soldier who just got blooded the day before and now has a stolen Knights purse to spend, gave the whole lot to the Madam for a tendays worth and then got dragged out screaming by the Man-at-arms.

Was meant to suit and boot with instead, got contacts and info, maybe a bastard too

...

Never. I tend to either play Paladins or Wizards.

Well, almost never. Technically the feast hall of the barbarian king my paladin befriended doubled as a brothel, although he did not partake, to the disappointment of the workers. He did, however, give the king the closest fight in a drinking contest he's had since he became the king (which was through a mix of drinking contests and brutal bar fights that serve as his culture's electoral process.)

My wizards are just nerds that stay in the inn studying all night or spill his magic spaghetti when talking to women.

Owned a brothel once, bathhouses were visited quite frequently, though they weren't usually places of prostitution.

Only in between sessions

Not at all, really.

Well, there was a time my dwarven siege engineer tunneled into the basement of one.

Never. I don't play with five year olds.

>oriental harem
>that one ginger chick
So, how much do you think she gets bullied by the other harem girls?

>asian whispering intensifies

Visited a bathhouse once, though that was an excuse to set up an encounter where the party were ambushed in the nude.

Brothels just haven't come up.

Current game not possible since it's a modern US setting.

Otherwise, not either since it would be weird with this group.

>Current game not possible since it's a modern US setting.

It's legal in nevada.

Sometimes. Kinda rarely, to be honest, since our parties are mainly composed by people who get off by hurting living beings.

In a particular campaign where I played a devilish merchant with a gnome friend of the same trade, we happened to buy some brothels, then we started putting our hands on the black market to get monopoly on drugs, in extremely unorthodox ways, and eventually transformed a pretty little town into a cesspool of degeneration. We got loads of golden pieces. And that's the most interaction I ever had with a brothel in my campaigns.

Ok well it's set in the Outer Banks so it's not really possible.

i played a dhampyr at one point and hit the redlight dustrict to eat me a whore but thats about it.

Pretty much never. We visited a strip club once but that was to talk to the Mr. Johnson who owned the club about our new job, not as a customer.

>they don't spend all their money on booze and whores for "roleplaying" XP
plebeians, all of you
>pic
a man after my own taste

Sorry senpai, I usually play monster races and weird stuff which wouldn't find a nice and confy place in the redlight districts. And I know what you want to say about my Illithid Cleric, but no. He's not going to. Expecially if it's an Oriental Adventures game.

comfy*

Typo.

Never. I like to fight with numbers

With modern tech it's easy to travel. Not convenient for sure however. There's also still illegal brothels out there.

Never.

Ok well my character is also poor. Although that said now that I think about it, I probably wouldn't put it past him to maybe get an escort every once in awhile.

Just saying, if I ever get the chance, I want to create a Dwarf/Halfling who attempts to seduce the barmaid of every tavern we stay at, and dive into brothels on a regular. Like, I want "chronic womaniser" to be one of the dude's biggest flaws. I'm not sure if I can make a particularly deep statement with the character's flaw, but I'll certainly try.

>Skinwalker Druid doesn't do so well with this whole "people" thing

I rolled a Skinwalker Hunter once, user. He also was fucking confused about everything. Used to stare blankly at humans and expended most of his time talking to his giant mantis. His party just kinda kept him there and called when they wanted someone shanked.
I usually play the party face so it was really refreshing.

There was this one time as part of an investigation into possible cult activity. They were investigated thoroughly. Turns they were all Slaaneshi cultists, but we never figured that out.

Depends. I had one character who was basically patron saint of whores. He was a bit rough around the edges but he did not like to hear that whores were being mistreated. It got to the point that his reputation preceded him. Honestly, personality wise he was basically Carrot Ironfounderson with a thing for prostitutes. Dude used brothels as inns since every madam for miles around knew that if a customer started shit while he was staying there he'd be the one to finish it.

Ended up meeting a whore who was sorta the helpful big-sister type during a siege in which the party saved a whole town's worth of people and would have probably married her if things went on long enough.

This right here is why the inquisition never gets anything done, and then blows shit up to cover their own asses.

Never. I am not a degenerate.

Well my Goblin Bounty hunter used to take 10% (Exactly 10%) of their money and put it in a fund labelled 'Wine & Whores' then spend it on alcohol and fucked up, evil sex with semi-consenting Orcish rape bait.

Most entertaining female character I ever played. Pic related.

A question for the bards:

How often do you indulge in groupies during your campaigns?

Now that you mention it, it did end in exterminatus.

Not that it mattered, they were all heretics anyway. I only feel bad that we didn't manage to save the still emperor worshipping NOTinjun tribals. (It was a wild west planet.)

I could have been their Joshua Graham.

Bathhouses were recently banned as basically brothels by two of the major religions.

The non-human races, otoh, still consider them major institutions to varying degrees. At this point my players have met two dwarven aristocrats and most of the court of an elven principality in different bathhouses.
