In general, when you think about roleplaying and sex, I bet you start thinking of French Maid outfits and lacy panties.

Usually, that’s a very valid point of reference for roleplay in the bedroom. For an awful lot of folks, that’s as spicy as it gets for them! For me, that’s my usual Tuesday night. The range from ‘vanilla’ to ‘kinky’ is different for every individual, with each person having their own upper limit on the kink end of the scale. For those who have never been exposed to even the idea of non-vanilla sex (imagine that!), even the mildest of kinky sex acts become terrible risque.

And then there are those for whom “roleplay” means something completely different.

There is a segment of the population that hears “roleplay” and instantly start thinking about stats, ability scores, hit dice and how freaking mean their DM was last session. They start thinking that once they level up, they’re totally going to multiclass, and that having a bard/ranger isn’t that strange. They start wondering how high their charisma score would need to be to get the DM to finally have the hot barmaid fall for their lines, and what sort of roll they’d need to make to determe how many screaming orgasms she had.

And these people are totally normal, just like you and I.

In fact, I am one of these people. Before I got into the kink world, if you said “man, I had a hot roleplay session with my boyfriend last night”, I’d start asking about character class and monster levels. Yes, I, Mistress Harper, was and am a Geek. I played Magic in high school, rolled up characters for fun and got together with other nerds, geeks and freaks to play D&D on Saturday nights.

Fast forward a few years, and here I am today: hot, geeky, intelligent and still a total nerd.

Luckily for us all, now ‘nerd’ isn’t an insult like it used to be, and the idea that a woman can be hot, smart and still enjoy geeking out in a dungeon crawl isn’t totally out there and unusal. In fact, lots of hot chicks dig barbarian/fighters and bards with a few spells up their sleeves. And some of us even got curious enough to finally find the answer to ‘what do you have to roll to determine how many screaming orgasms the hot barmaid had.’

(It’s an opposed charisma roll to get her in bed, and you roll stamina against her wisdom.)
