Icebreaker: Childhood fantasy crushes.
Main Topic: Love, Sex and Boning in your game.
1) Use sex as a tool in the game- to excite or anger your players. Have consequences and adventure related to it.
2) How to know when you’ve gone too far. And then how to take it a little bit further.
3) Ways to make interesting sexual characters.
Share your sex stories!
… in game of course.
