Davvy's DM Advice: Relationships 

Imagine if the Dm hands out love interests to each party member. I hope that person is a good kisser XD

As one who ended up dating most of the people I flirted with at the table, I can confirm

I am making this a rule in my game

@@SirKaibel Pressuring people to kiss IRL just because their TTRPG characters did? Not cool. Opposite of cool. Actually creepy AF.

Line? That is not how you play?

Holy shit that’s a good name

@@DavvyChappy you gotta do it now

@@DavvyChappy You know the rules and so do wi

@@DavvyChappy Promise you I'll watch, like, and comment for the mighty Algorithm gods if you do it.

GOOD NEWS! Your idea is being stolen! Yay!

Mr. XXXXFey guy might take an insult to it.

And by shipped you mean shipped straight off to jail.

@@Sgt-Wolf ace vibes

@@silverthedruid4754 Funny enough I'm straight.

@@Sgt-Wolf …Integrity vibes?

Ikr? Also I wanted to like this comment but then I saw that it had 69 likes and I dare not disrupt that perfection. Nice.

I could feel the aceness from over the room

@@toocoldforyouhere8353 I mean, most of his jokes leaned more into aro than ace, but yes

me neither, though not wanting to date seems more like an aro (aromantic) trait

Hard to say. I thought he'd said he was gay in past videos, or otherwise was making very homoerotic jokes, but it could've just been funny/shocking innuendo joke goes here for entertainment purposes.

@@gregvs.theworld451 he has explicitly stated that he's gay as well

@@gregvs.theworld451 I mean one can be gay and aro but he's said he's gay so I guess he's gay lol

Shockingly enough you can be gay, ace, and aro all at the same time. But y’know. I’m just *biaced* and *aro* on the side of caution

While I normally play it the other way.

A mood. Tho usually it’s writing aroace characters as being grey/demi or favorable. (I myself am closer to repulsed and only Neutral on a blue moon when the stars align during the autumn equinox and the planets are all in harmonic convergence.)

frogge

That sounds really cool! How did it affect the plot?

@@jillianh7565 Well, he died in the final fight and I used his wife to give him a eulogy. Then the city raised a statue in his honour. It created this lasting, bittersweet ending where many characters who started the campaign did not survive to see its end, but the survivors went on to create a better world and remember them as part of the effort.

@@zooker7938 that sounds cool. Right now my character (Zelda) has a potential relationship that could raise the stakes for my groups campaign. Basically our group was found in Barovia by two vampires Alucard and Evelyn. A few sessions of character development and sticky situations later, Alucard was revealed to be Alexander Von Roeyen (second brother of Strahd Von Zarovich and forgotten prince of Barovia) who wants to set Barovia free. During this time, Alexander started taking a liking to Zelda, heir to Neverwinter and the main target of Strahd. The two characters are falling in love and becoming a dynamic duo within the party. Unfortunately, this relationship would drastically alter the story as my dm said, “if you go any further in this relationship Strahd will win.” Long story short my dm set up a prophecy and I’m one of the central figures and key to defeating Strahd forever. This also means that if I’m killed or turned then Strahd wins. The problem I’m running into is that Alexander is a vampire just like Strahd and could easily kill or turn me with a single bite, kiss etc. Honestly I never thought my character would be put in such a predicament as she wasn’t originally looking for love and the moment it finds her it’s with the youngest brother of the guy who wants her dead. Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think? 😂🎼🎶

My partner and I are currently playing a retired married couple who are significantly older than the rest of the party and it's been really fun. I wouldn't want us to be young or new lovers in a game though. Bad enough our friends had to see that in real life a decade ago!

The “try to force it” is honestly why I haven’t gotten up the nerve to try and find a group to play with via skype or zoom or discord.

Honestly prolly both. In another video about relationships he gave me massive aroace vibes

I feel sex scene should be treated like in pg movie. Fade to black and maybe a discussion scene after that if the players want.

Bit of foreplay, fade to black, then pillow talk. If the players want “more than that” either they go off and roleplay it away from the main group on a timer during a long rest or play somewhere else

To you, what would be an example of a relationship executed the right way?

I was in something similar for a couple years. It was good for a time, but IRL concerns and personality conflicts eventually pushed people apart.
