What's a fun way to introduce NTR elements into my Eberron game?
>>
>>97321552
Buff Body builder halfling slavers

Give it some philosophical depth - is Warforged a person and a romantic rival or just elaborate sex toy?
>>
I don't know what NTR elements mean.
>>
>>97321565
NTR is abbreviation for Not Too Rough, it's those "handholding and headpats are so very lewd" memes, I'm sure you've seen it before.
>>
>>97321552
You could try inviting your wife's boyfriend to the party?
>>
>>97321562
What could be more traditional? NTR has been a staple of literature and the arts for thousands of years, you know the things games take inspiration from?
The most famous example would be King Candaules, who revealed his wife to Gyges, the subject of literally dozens of paintings, plays etc. I'm tired of you weirdo freakish prudes pearl clutching and screeching every time a natural human activity is mentioned.

The classic is "Rich guy in denial/not aware his wife is getting porked by someone close to him".

Not Lancelot and Guinevere?
Or Helen of Troy?
Or everything Zeus ever did?

If you want cuckold shit at your table, then just play it at your own table. Trying to preach to others about it just makes it that much more weird and pathetic, dude.
>>
>>97321552
Mix bleach with ammonia and drink it.

>>97321836
Candaules gives his name to an entire paraphilia.

>>97321843
>Oh no, I came into a thread about something I don't personally like and now am mad!
What is the name for this syndrome?
>>
>>97321869
It's giving an honest opinion about the topic at hand, as well as your weird attempts to proselytize about it, cuck. You can definitely do what you want at your own table, just remember the price is that people are going to make fun about you for publicly speaking about it.
>>
>>97321823
>>97321552
I think it's best used as something PCs encounter NPCs doing, like a Local Lordâ„¢, his wife and his chief minister.
I think encouraging players to indulge could potentially cross over into feeling weird.

>>97321873
No-one, cares bro. Noo-ne cares.

>>97321893
You seem to

>>97321836
Lancelot and Guinevere 100%

>>97321893
There's also stuff like Three Musketeers, where protagonists try to cover Queen's affair from the King and Chief Minister is the bad guy for trying to expose the it (written by a Frenchman).
>>
>>97321925
>(written by a Frenchman).
But of course, hon hon hon

>>97321562
Eberron is a setting for Dungeons & Dragons, which falls under that category! But you don't care, because you're a fucking bot!

The most straightforward way to do it is to introduce competition. If there's a hot girl (say some sexy knight or sorceress) make it clear that the NPCs want her too. If the PC does not dedicate effort to the romance (sacrificing time, treasure and other opportunities) he'll get her, and they'll hook up, leaving the PC to lament what may have been.
Also, emphasize that some beautiful, powerful women have their own lives and their own desires. The hot girl is not going to sit there and wait for the PC to romance her, he might get only one shot to start up a relationship. If he doesn't go for it, she'll pick someone else and he's shut out.
Also, ensure that there's ferocious competition (i.e. stakes). Women choose the best men - Whenever there's an objective, emphasize that another NPC is also trying to get there first.
Sword tournament? The girl likes the winner.
Public speaking? If you fuck up she gets the ick.
And obviously whoever gets her is the better man.
>>
>>97322097
Finally, consider the nature of antagonists and NPCs. Point out how tall and strong and handsome the men are, how virile and sexual. How every interaction feels charged, because when they're near a girl they're thinking of fucking her. They wanna get BALLS-DEEP in that.
Remember that most of your players are probably not very confident individuals. Make them compete against Chad. Make them fear that if a male NPC is ever left alone with a girl, she'll succumb to his charms.
When the party meets an NPC Elven swordsman dude, don't just go "Oh he's pretty cool." Make the cute squire they're traveling with blush, bite her lip and go "Wow he's so cool."
Channel the seething sexual frustration of your college days, it should all be coming back.
Make your PCs fear having to watch a girl kiss someone they hate and LOVE IT, while they can't say anything because it'd make them seem petty and small-minded.
Point out that other characters are having sex. Never be explicit, but state that there are sex-havers and non-sex havers, and the non-sex-havers are losers.

It's fun because there are stakes now. What your players are looking for is an excuse to be engaged in your story. Gold and XP are somewhat peripheral. If you want them to really feel something, you need to wave a prize that they genuinely link their self-worth too.
It's great at a motivation. Your average player reverts back to his high-school mentality when that happens, they actually end up role-playing their character.
I'm not saying "Cuck your players", that's cruel and pointless. I'm saying "Make your players aware of sexual politics."
Here let me give you an example. When the PCs are clearing out a goblin cavern, the fighter from the other party says "Let's have a little competition, the one who kills the most of them gets to have a date with the hot Goth sorceress."
The hot Goth sorceress rolls her eyes because she thinks the competition is stupid, but goes "Ugh, fine, I'll agree."
So when your party's Fighter or Rogue or whatever starts killing goblins, now he's trying to keep pace with the other dude. The girl gets more and more excited as she sees them mow down the little bastards, and she'll playfully grab the arm of the winner and ask him to treat her well.
This will literally be the most memorable part of the session for your players, win or lose.
I can't stress how you must be perfectly fair, let the dice fall where they may.
>>
do you mean cuck in purely romance way because I cucked my players whenever they dont complete jobs they've been giving by having whoever hire them hire another team so if they cant solve a puzzle in a reasonable time or get distracted I just have the npc who hired them hire someone else and I also always make it the same team who adventure cucks them they hate them but they cant beat them because I make sure to give the team the xp and rewards they would've got

>>97322138
That's the thing about this NTR shit. Like I get it, it's tempting to try and fuck with the players' fake waifus since that at least creates drama and tension since non-stop lovey-dovey crap can get boring fast. But usually this stuff only ends up fun for the DM. The players either just get pissed and never have their characters marry again due to being burned on their emotional investment, or just get annoyed and bored when things between the DM and one player turn into basically a pissing contest between one fat nerd with a fake waifu and one fat nerd with a god complex. And same applies if you're a player stealing another player character's waifu. So really, the only times you should actually try it are with friends who ultimately don't give a shit about npcs, or if you're actively looking to piss people off. Or teach them to never invest in npc relationships and start making more murderhobos.

Fuck that I'm not doing it

The husband was actually a changeling pretending to be him. But the wife was actually a changeling pretending to be her.
>>
>>97322179
And that's why you'll die alone
>>
>>97322175
This is why the best way to do it is to make the PCs try and 'win' the girl instead of taking away a girl they already have.
>>
>>97322165
>So when your party's Fighter or Rogue or whatever starts killing goblins, now he's trying to keep pace with the other dude. The girl gets more and more excited as she sees them mow down the little bastards, and she'll playfully grab the arm of the winner and ask him to treat her well.
What's the mechanical advantage of all this shit anyway
Like what do I as the PC even get out of it
>>
>>97322219
Trying and failing to win over the girl against a romantic rival is just normal courtship and not "netorare", my man. ntr is specifically a fantasy about one's spouse or lover cheating on you. And before you ask, "netori" is the inverse where you're the one taking someone else's partner.
>>
>>97322238
Technically it's "BSS" - i.e. "But I loved her first".
This is an RPG, and an RPG is all about give your PCs a chance to win or lose on their own merits, so it works best that way.
>>
>>97322228
You can give them the bonuses from the Pathfinder Adventure Paths, which did this as a kind of minigame.
But honestly, you don't really need to and the bonuses are marginal anyway.
>>
>>97322242
For what it is worth, my good sir, I believe that we are thinking about very different things in this regard, so I will not needlessly antagonize you over what you consider enjoyable. Though I will still stand by my original statement that in general, it's only ever fun for the DM to inject conflict into a fake stable love life for the purposes of drama and tension. It's never fun to be the subject of it, and it's honestly rather cringe-inducing and awkward to have to watch it unless you really hate the player it's happening to. In regards to introducing a rival npc to woo a romantic-interest npc that the other player hasn't fully successfully romanced yet, that's a whole other ball-game imo.
>>
>>97321552
One fighter in a team of casters does the trick.
Throw in hours of script reading and speaking voices at each other to really evoke the NTR experience.
>>
>>97322228
>>97322256
The people who enjoy this sort of play get off on it at some level. They're not in it for mechanical reward.
>>
>>97322138
Yeah I'm genuinely trying to understand, since I as a DM (and as a player) find romances and erotic stuff at the table almost universally cringe or miserable. In my experience sitting with the homies is just not the right place for any of it.
Looking at >>97322097 &>>97322120
(which is a very thorough breakdown), these are all 1:1 the sort of beats I expect to see in porn or a smut novel, which - again - seems like exactly the shit I'd not want to experience with my buddies around the game table.

The foundational principles of getting players invested by having competition and stakes is great, but I can't see a version where any of this specific shit works in a game with any objective other than everyone regressing into sexual frustration, individualism at the expense of the party, and (for fetishists) getting hard due to 1 & 2.
>>
>>97321552
Stick to your containment general, cuck.
>>
>>97321552
please drink concrete mix and remember to hydrate

>>97321552
Very easy:
1. Take a rusty knife.
2. Slit your throat with it.

>>97322622
I kind of get it. It's very Game of Thrones, it could work in a Pendragon game. But it seems really adversial.
>>
>>97322622
>>97322769
It's something that ideally is founded on a strong level of engagement from the player while also relying on the player mentally disassociating themselves enough from their character that npcs turning against them or things going south for their PC doesn't personally bother them at all. And that's rare to find. Most people settle for the people who aren't super invested at all in their PC and would shrug their shoulders at this stuff, cause it works out better than with the guys who are a bit too engaged with the unfolding narrative and/or their PC's love life.
