I'm not sure about this subreddit's policies on linking to Scribd and other book sites, but here is the Amazon link.
It's pretty interesting, and like the product description says it adds a whole new dimension to your game, which can be pretty amusing and fulfilling. It talks about different race's ideas on love, how to rp these types of encounters, and how different ideas dealing with this type of stuff would affect the campaign
You could use this book. Since it's so rare it's worth a pretty penny, so you would definitely never ever want to go see if Google will send you to a definitely most certainly not illegal PDF.
Just a note, there are some VERY broken spells in that book, consult your DM first.
Oh yeah and in case it's not obvious, the book is NSFW.
The Book of Erotic Fantasy
Back in the 3.5 era of DnD there was an open licence on D20 products which meant that there was a lot of third party content, and they could get pretty weird with it. The ruleset in the book is designed to add sexual content to your game from the relatively mild to extremely graphic.
The book and the ruleset are actually really well written. Here is an amazon link if you want to have a look. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Book-Erotic-Fantasy-Gwendolyn-Kestrel/dp/1588463990
Its pretty hard to get a physical copy now but im pretty sure its on drivethrurpg and you could always sail the high seas if you catch my drift.
Let me see if I have this straight. You find a group that likes what you're doing, so you want to drive them off?
Okay. Get a copy of the Book of Erotic Fantasy and center your campaign around it. That should be enough to drive off all but the cringiest players.
Yeah that's fair, 'bonk, bard go to horny jail' is a meme that I do find lazy (Though is one that I think everyone, including myself, have made before). And again, I'll agree that this subclass is pretty sexual in design, looking over it again it could've been reflavoured to general knotwork, though I still don't think that fits 100% (not that I think shibari does.
And I'll also agree that the sexualisation of D&D can be frustrating, though it's be no means a new trend, The Book of Erotic Fantasy was released over 17 years ago (note amazon says it's from 2006, but if you google it it says it was 2003, and there;s a link to a review from 2004), yes theres more of it, but there's also more players who just want to sit down and play out a family friendly game of D&D, people just don't tend to focus on that.
For the next version though I'll change at least one of the images in this to something more explicitly about knotwork or string art, make it clearer that while you could make this subclass sexual, you by no means have to.
EDIT: That was written before I saw your edit, will look into those as an additional 3rd level feature
You can still find the Book of Erotic Fantasy on Amazon, though it's out of print so all the prices are stupid high.
It was a little silly but a good amount of the material was actually decent.
The Book of Erotic Fantasy is an interesting read. It can be an interesting addition to your campaign with the right players. It has a full chart to describe what species can successfully produce offspring.
The DnD rulebooks have referred to players as "she" or "her" for decades, it always slightly rankled me (as a person who makes extra effort to use "they" for non-gender specific instances).
For anyone interested in pursuing this train of discussion to it's logical conclusion, I invite reading of an old classic.
The only thing I ever bought from Amazon was a D&D book and I still get recommendations for dildos and whips.
Though, to be fair, the D&D book was The Book of Erotic Fantasy.
> And what do you choose to do? Get your fucking rocks off? How incredibly goddamn pathetic is that?
> It's just gross and sad on many different levels.
You want to bitch about me being condescending when you choose phrases like "incredibly goddamn pathetic" and "sad on so many levels" to describe people who don't share your opinion.
> "I was asked what my opinion on it was. I gave my opinion. To quote another contributor to this thread, "It all depends on the group and how they want to play." That's how I want to play, and I'm getting attacked for it."
Let me fix this sentence for you, so that maybe you understand why you're being attacked.
"I was asked my opinion, so I gave it, using words like "Pathetic" and "Sad" to describe people who don't share my opinion with me. I find it silly that people might enjoy romance in their D&D, therefore everyone else should as well, if they don't, well fuck those sad, pathetic people!"
Sorry to break it to you, bro, but there are a lot of people who feel the need for even X-RATED content in their table top, let alone just pg13 romance.
Asshole.

It was a book from the tail end of 3.5, this is in my google history now.

I believe there is a recognised D&D supplement for such shenanigans...
...obviously you'd need the right sort of group.

Because generally speaking, this ends with A LOT of fucking, and the rules for fucking have historically been pretty poor (even the Book of Erotic Fantasy couldn't give us good mechanics). If you think combat or social RP rules are clunky, wait until you've tried 'Sustaining' rolls XD
Specifically in my case, we didn't start with the intention of the campaign being a build-a-harem workshop :P I know campaign focus drifts over time, though some of the party still ain't comfortable with wading into fetish territory. Funnily enough though, we have an virgin Alu-fiend on the team...
Looks like its time to pull out the naughty book.

Fun fact: DnD did in fact have a book focusing on sex.
https://www.amazon.com/Book-Erotic-Fantasy-Gwendolyn-Kestrel/dp/1588463990
Pathfinder: I'd say the act would be at the very least a full-round action, with conception dictated using the Poison Rules:
Poison: Semen
Type: Contact~
Fort DC: 15
Onset: 1d4 days
Frequency: 1 round
Effect: Preggers
Cure: 1 Save (or "Block the Seed" spell from 3.5 BoEF)
That seems to be homebrew/third party. There's certainly nothing in 2E like that, and the closest thing I can find in 1E is the Lineage Rules, which are basically just a way to formalize familial relations in campaigns where that might be useful, and briefly mention pregnancy as something that probably shouldn't be sprung on your players without discussion or a damned good reason.
You might have run into the Book of Erotic Fantasy, which was a 3rd party supplement for D&D 3.5.
You seem to be speaking of Book of Erotic Fantasies.
I mean, Open Game License for the d20 system did exactly that. If WOTC really had a problem with it, they could've fought it legally.
Well, based on the Amazon listing, my good condition copy of the Book of Erotic Fantasy is pretty rare, and I can't even find another copy of Critter-Tek.
Well it's not Paizo but the 3.5 Book of Erotic Fantasy might help you out lol
No. It's published under D20 OGL
All you need is the Book of Erotic Fantasy. ;)
I think this is it?

Hey, I've managed to play DnD for a decade now without using <em>that book</em>. I don't want to have to start now.
Check out the book of erotic fantasy.

If you need some more inspiration for absurd sexual D&D, look no further than The Book of Erotic Fantasy
I was originally thinking of suggesting this approach as well, but quickly identified that the people on this thread didn't want to hear anything that was less than 100,000% percent complete conformity to their party line.
I then made the mistake of posting about how this kind of thing was just way more common in tabletop games when I was younger. I even made sure to throw in that it had nothing to do with me, didn't involve women, and that I explicitly didn't approve of it.
I was downvoted and then basically told that it means I like to hang out with rapists because I'm a pervert.
Yep. No precedent in tabletop gaming history for dealing with sexual themes.

There is cross-breeding table in this book for all kinds of races.
Amazon. It's actually not nearly as bad as people make it out to be with the nudity.
For the lazy... 0_o
What the fuck did I just read?
there's a spell in here that is exactly mage hand, but on living material.
Back in 3.0 there was a book, I suggest you get it and then allow it.
Book of Erotic Fantasy (D20) https://www.amazon.com/dp/1588463990/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_XGl-Cb85RYX3A
They want to play erotic give it to them. Oh and like everything in dnd chance of failure, chance of getting a life altering curse.
