You don't

But why?

Have your NPCs react appropriately.

If you're running a medieval setting they will be disgusted and horrified at a promiscuous girl doing things like unbuttoning her shirt and asking for sex in the middle of a tavern.

If they don't end up burning her, they'll chase her out of town as an agent of the devil and probably the other PCs too.

Could you take this purple ho seriously as an infiltration specialist?

Talk to them before the game

Honestly, PCs who are sluts are great. Puts a lot more narrative potential for getting into fun situations in the game.
>PC sleeps with the bad guy's lieutenant
>PC met an NPC once at an orgy
>PC gets really fucked up on drugs the night before the big dungeon crawl

That's a rooftop

I'd infiltrate that specialist, if you know what I mean.

>PC gets really fucked up on drugs the night before the big dungeon crawl

Listen, faggot, you want to waste your gold during downtime, fine, but if you EVER endanger the party's lives by going on a crawl high I will not only refuse to heal you but I will personally finish you off with my mace the moment you go down because you dropped a fireball on your toes. You feel me? This is a job, not a pasttime, and the party isn't obligated to put up with your randumb bullshit.

"I'll have you know it takes incredible skill to be stealthy in an outfit like this one."

No one would ever expect a spy to dress like that, which makes it the perfect disguise.

But that's an excellent outfit for infiltration. Anyone who sees you dies from half of their blood flow suddenly being dedicated to their dick getting hard.

We need more examples of adventuring thots to decide. Anyone got some?

I would need to see how she works first.
What kind of retard rejects someone from you average fantasy setting just because they look silly?

Even then it was treated as a necessary evil.

I guess you could go with a priest or something seeing it and whipping the other NPCs into a hateful frenzy at the sight of the thotPC.

Nice memeing but fundamentally untrue. She draws too much attention, she's obviously armed and dangerous, and her outfit isn't even good for camouflage. It reminds me of, in L5R, how apprentice shinobi have to wear fancy black pajamas and masks and leap around a castle with shitty smoke bombs distracting the guards and trying not to die while the actual assassin infiltrated the castle in the guise of a gardener months ago and is quietly garotteing the target while the guards are chasing the pajama boys.

Don't play with women. Then again, there's no reason to play with women in the first place.

Honestly, what would a "proper" infiltration outfit even look like? The most worrying part here is her hair to be frank.

The kind who wants to survive this dungeon crawl and doesn't want an attention-seeking slut getting the party wiped so she can live out her fantasy of being gangraped by orcs?

>captcha: third unsuitable

Thanks, Google's AI, but I'd say it's way more than a third!

Something that looks like what a peasant would wear. Hair should be short and dirty as fuck.

I fucking hate nigger terms.

This. I had a reply that involved Egyption gods and had to delete it since I misread the post.

But you don't even know if she is actually skilled. You could be rejecting a top-tier infiltrator just because you don't like her clothes.
At least see have her prove her skills by doing some minor shit before you pass judgement on her.
I mean, she does look like a stupid slut but in the fantasyland you never know.

You can't stop the rock

fpbp

Well, I'd say you'd want to change it up for the job at hand, nobody looks twice at a peasant or serving girl unless she's really pretty (which is why being beautiful is a disadvantage unless you're going for the whole concubine assassin thing, which has its own problems long-term), but if you need more of a default outfit I have a few suggestions.

First, an oversized robe of some sort. Not like a mage's robe, but something ragged and multicolored to break up your outline, the kind of thing a traveler or vagabond might wear. It has the upside of being easy to hide weapons in and obscure your form. Underneath, get a brigandine ("studded leather" in D&D) to keep your vitals from being shanked. A sturdy belt for holding your tools and sensible shoes are vital, but I also recommend a large hat to keep the sun out of your eyes and hide your face somewhat. Not for when you're actively being searched for, but so people who see you en route to a target don't clearly remember your face. An ornate sword and meme throwing weapons are also overkill, you can easily hide a hand crossbow inside your clothes if you have to, or go the "cripple" route and have a rapier hidden inside a walking stick.

You can talk to them. You can create in-game circumstances nonconducive to this behavior. You can kick them. But if they're absolutely determined to be a thot, you can't stop them.

>rogue waifu uses short, raggedy hair, a makeup kit, and nondescript clothes to masquerade as a filthy, ugly, middle-aged peasant woman
>get her out of the outfit and she's a qt shorthair tomboy

All of my dick.

Infiltration is a science, not just "she's good at moving quietly". There's nothing top-tier about being visibly bad at your job, and even "ah-HA she TRICKED you into thinking she's a novice with this obvious outfit" is inefficient compared to making me never suspect she's an assassin in the first place.

That's like if I post this roastie here and you claim that she must be a master swordswoman because her slut armor proves she's too good at dodging to need to worry about being cleft in the cleavage by a halberd.

It really depends if we are talking about a "realistic" setting.
When magic and weird skills come into play, then you can't really tell if the purple ho is actually a top-tier infiltrator who just dresses like a retard for some reasons or if that roastie if a master swordwoman who dresses with slut armor because indeed she doesn't have to worry about being hurt.
Obviously, if you have an equally skilled but less stupidly dressed person available you should pick him/her, but otherwise you can't just go around rejecting people because they dress like idiots.
And I never claimed that her stupid clothes must mean that she is extremely skilled, I was just telling you not to judge someone by their appearance when you haven't even seen what they can do.

>not making thots

To this day i still don't know what a thot is

There is this thing called Google

Thot = THat Hoe Over There

yeah, but I'm a lazy fuck.
But having just now googled it, I'm unsure as to why this is a new word. Its just another way of saying slut or hussy or hoochie

yeah this acronym is kinda dumb desu

>It really depends if we are talking about a "realistic" setting.

It really doesn't unless you're a caster. If you wear armor there's no reason not to wear good armor. If you're a sneak there's no reason not to dress for the role you want people to assume.

Let's take the purple ho again. If she's so magical that she can just turn invisible and inaudible and therefore there's no reason for her to not wear her favorite slutty clothes...then why does she need a mask and why is she on a rooftop when she can just boogie past the guards on the front door and boogie back out with the daimyo's head tucked under her arm? The fact that she has her weapons drawn, and that they're clean, adds to this. There's no reason to run with a naked, gleaming, attention-grabbing blade unless you have to, so it implies that she's either been caught or is expecting the guards at any moment, and since her weapons are clean it's safe to assume (although unprovable) that she just failed her mission. It's not internally consistent.

The acronym is fine; it indicates a woman so forgettable personality-wise that you don't even remember her name.

How black men use their minority status to troll feminists, casually appropriated by Veeky Forums's finest shitlords.

what does "that hoe over there" imply

If you show up to an office job interview dressed like you're going to an antifa rally, you're not going to get the job. Your appearance does matter, especially in matters relating to profession, and that's something your parents should have explained to you years ago.

>U DONT NO ME

Is the dumbest response to any argument.

...

That she's absolutely forgettable and the only thing interesting about her is sex appeal and proximity.

Acronym for "That Ho Over There." A slut, basically.
