Good point. Breaking up the "+1 level of existing class" for the spellcasting to 1, 3, & 5 seems like it would solve that problem. -------------------- "We know not what we do."

Y'know, I like what you're doing here. If the Houri is any indication, the 3E BoUCK could easily become an instant classic. However, I'm worried that players won't be able to take all the necessary sex skills without sacrificing their more useful adventuring skills. I mean, the idea that a druid should have to sacrifice knowledge: nature to be a great lover doesn't sound good to me. Perhaps you could suggest an expanded skill system in which all characters would get extra skill points to spend on roleplaying/background skills that aren't likely to be useful while out adventuring. I.E. craft, profession, knowledge, languages, and of course SEX! I've contemplated such a system before and I believe it could go a long way towards making characters who are effective and competent heroes but aren't just the sum of their adventuring abilities.I don't have a clear system in my head, however. How many extra points should characters get? Should different classes get more or fewer points? Will this be unbalancing? -------------------- DON'T PANIC

Just to keep thinks looking good: 12 spells to go in the first round. I will have to go through all of them a second time, to apply some rules better.I got a new Spell, I would like to share here: Ilruna's Roulette Enchantment (Mind-Affecting) Level: Brd 4, Src/ Wiz 4 Components: V, S, M Casting Time: 1 hour Range: the same plane Target: 1 person Duration: 10 minutes per level Saving Throw: Negates Spell Resistance: Yes
Ilruna's Roulette will cause the subject of the spell to experience different phases of arousal determined by the caster. The caster is able to create the following phases: excitement, arousal, plateau and afterglow but not orgasm. He may switch the phase each round. The subject of the spell will only be able to receive an orgasm, when the caster wishes so. If the caster stops concentrating on the subject of the spell, the subject will begin to experience random phases each minute. Consult the following table: Roll Phase of Arousal 1 Excitement 2 Arousal 3 Plateau 4 Afterglow A character receiving this treatment will be exhausted afterwards and in some cases repeated casting of Ilruna's Roulette will result in insanity. The material component for this spell is some item worth at least 10 gp that belonged to the subject of the spell for more than a year. I am not sure about the level. What do you think?

That sounds damn clever. Reminds me of a sword in BG2 called the Blade of roses which gave the wielder extra Charisma. How would the appearance work though? Would it be a Charisma bonus? Or would it only work with some people?Anyway, I'm still converting the old magic items. I've changed some significantly and now I'm sorting them out into categories. Thanks for posting the 'Endowment' rules in the other thread Riot Gear, now I convert the 'Ring of the Bull' properly. What should I be doing after this? I've been thinking of doing the Prostitute and Brothel generation stuff, but I'm not sure. What do you think a typical pro should be? A commoner or expert?

I've had the idea of defining a species or cultural sexuality like the Manual of the Planes defines a plane - A set of characteristics, each of which could be one of several options. I'm going to list my ideas for the characteristics along with potential options.------Dominant Gender (Who wears the pants) Matriarchal Feminine Neutral Masculine Patriarchal ------Sex Drive (How horny they get) Nonexistant Weak Average Strong Screaming ------Sexual Cycle (When they're horny) Constant Periodic Singular Conditional ------Frequency of Homosexuality (Guess) Unknown Rare Occasional Frequent Dominant Universal ------Acceptance of "Alternative Lifestyles" Violent Repressive Shameful Resigned Non-chalant Enthusiastic Dominant ------Frequency of sexual abnormality (fetish or perversion of some kind) Pure Rare Occasional Often Universal ------Nature of Sexual Abnormality (Tendencies towards specific perversions) Varied Focused Singular ------Mating Habits (How they pair up) Monogamous Polyamourous Casual Hostile ------Sexual Desire (What turns them on?) Symmetry Scent Sound Texture Power Intelligence What you thinking? -------------------- ------- I love maces, I really do. That crunch noise is just SO satisfying, and the flying shards of bloody bone - Well, that's just icing on the cake.
