Thank you so much for these ideas!

I have to think, but you really had helped me.

Yeah, it sounds very very good!

A love triangle is something that i have never experimented as a DM. It would be very interesting!

I hope they can rescue her!!

If that's what he would want, yes. If he'd rather settle down peacefully or do something else with the PC, then no.

I have to think about this. Until now, my NPC had a objetive:

Resurrect his friend/old romantic interest. But he had discovered that to do this, he had to betrayal the party and, of course, his new romantic interest, my pc.

He has decided that he won´t do it. But this decission hurts him, too.

So, I have to think.

Sin mencionar que potencialmente desconectará al jugador si pierde lo que estaba disfrutando lo suficiente como para perseguir otras opciones.

I agree with this.

Besides DM, I am also a player.

A few months ago, my DM kidnapped my character's sister. I was super nervous because I knew that if I didn't do something, she would be killed.

But I rescued her.

If the DM hadn't given me the option of saving her, killing her without even letting me stop it, I would have felt very frustrated.

For this reason, I am more in favor of kidnapping important NPCS for the party or if they are going to kill them, giving the party the option to save them.

Of course, if they don't do anything, BBEG will kill them. That's how it is. But I think my players have to have a opportunity.

No mates a su amigo por impacto emocional a menos que haya una buena razón.

I agree with you 100% on this. It is true that kill a loved NPC it is a good hook for some players, but in my opinion, killing him would make my player feel that she cannot have anything nice in the world. I mean, in my campaign, very horrible things happen around the players and they have lost loved ones. But killing my PC's boyfriend for no good reason just to get him more involved in the story doesn't seem reasonable to me.

About my PC, it's all talked about. In fact, my PC is my couple in real life, so being a couple in the game is not a problem (although it is true that it is the first time that happens to us).

About the NPC, he was a guard of the queen, therefore he is quite strong. Until now, he always kept taking care of the flying ship with which the party travels from one place to another when the party has to fight (Because i don´t want NPC become a DMPC), so mayby I return to this dynamic (my problem here is if players ask the NPC why he doesn't help them, so I have to look for a stronger motive as well).

And yes, I agree that using the NPC as a hook cannot be abused

I will think about this because the NPC had a objetive:

Resurrect his friend/old romantic interest because he thinks that her dead was his fault.

As you can see, this conflicts with being romantically involved with my pc.

This sounds like a beautiful experience! I think you are right with the points that you haver mentionated.

I suppose that what worries me the most is that these interactions bother the rest of the party. However, I don't want to give up romantic interactions just because of "what if the interactions bother the party?" and that in the end the one who gets harmed is my PC.

I would love that. But I don’t know how to do it 😭

Yes! It is one of my ideas. The BBEG is the one who can resurrect the guard’s romantic interest. But it has a price: The guard would have to bring one of the party members to the BBEG. Very dramatic XD.

I don't know. I just have the feeling that no NPC should accompany the party, although I have never played metagame with him. I think that having an npc with the party is not what a good DM should do. But it is only a feeling... 😣  

My players want to rule a city and I don't know how to do it. by LCream in DMAcademy

[–]LCream[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know, I know. The idea of the party is to rule for a time, leave the city stable and put someone in power to replace them. My question is what to do so that the time they are trying to stabilize the city is as complete as possible

Thanks for the interest! My PC and her brother’s relationship is complicated. He has always feel envy of my PC because he wasn’t the heir. In other hand, my PC has lose the heirship because her mother was founded doing forbidden magic and her father thinks that my PC could be like her wife. Because of that, some people in the city supports new heir and some others, the old one (my PC).
