Episode 6: Romantic Worldbuilding & Raunchy Quizzing

Til Dice Do Us Part

Content Warning: Sex, Relationships, Sex Work, Pregnancy, Homophobia & Transphobia. No explicit language is used in this episode.
Valentine's Day sees us do a slightly more risqué episode of the podcast, such as a section on World Building where we focus on how to be inspired in creating your characters and game worlds by questions of sex, sexuality, relationships and the like. So much of human history and our media is dependent on our understanding of these topics but all too often they get skimmed at the table. How can you design interesting cultures and species that bear in mind S-E-X? Does your Elven pantheon have an issue with homosexuality? Did those Rigellians develop the idea of marriage when they need four different biological sexes present to make a baby? Why is that Swan running away from the Child Support Agency?
In a change to previous episodes, Ailsa takes on the role of being in charge of the Quiz. She then instantly reveals why she cannot be trusted with power as her idea of a Quiz topic is to complete quotes from the D&D 3rd edition third party supplement book The Book Of Erotic Fantasy. We will try and talk a little about the contents of this book and its strengths, but it may be hard for George to focus when Ailsa is dropping references to 1970s children's entertainers into proceedings.
In the mix there's also a summary of some lovely listener comments and reviews, a Valentine's Day card from a mystery admirer, a brief summary of what a Carry On film is for non-British listeners, proof that only one of us can do a content warning successfully, and an advert from this episode's sponsor for a community poorly served by existing dating solutions.
