    Goblin mixes depend on systems. Sometimes it's only green skin and somehow more impressive jaw inside - what you would rather associate with yuan-ti halfbreeds once you make them stand straight rather than semi-crawl on two legs.

    In other system elves are repulsive sometimes. So it's all relative. Anyway, in d&d elves, half-elves and humans in that order.

    I got it! A romance with a magically created dire pig! Or a mindflayer.

    [​IMG] Please... do...

    just wondering... would there be a male half-orc romance? :mommy:

    Does anyone have an idea how many romances there will be? Or will it be, got a spare moment, lets make this NPC an option.

    Wait, I got a nastier one, a Phaerim (if you have read the Return of the Netherese trilogy by Ed Greenwood, you would know what these things are), or, brace yourselves, an ethereal filcher, man their ugly.

    One of my roleplaying favourites is romance with a ghost. Just a cloud in shape of a perfect body if one please, but only a mild cool breeze in touch (wisdom check for that feeling ever coming ;) ). Perfectly unconsummable and thus centered around the romance phase.

    A deva or a solar could also be nice. A dryad definitely... Though it all really depends on the particular personality. An elf has to be done really well to maintain correct impression all the time. It's not just a HP-impaired tree-hugger with angular ears, diagonal eyes and archery inclinations. In all characters psychological bases are essential - I would love to see rich ones...

    On modding NPCs for romances:

    If Troika is still saving their dialogue in the same format of Arcanum, it wouldn't be that hard to do. For the uninitiated, Arcanum's .dlg files were essentially just .txt files, though you had to know the .dlg system's syntax to write them, of course.
