Bam! Succubus questline

Or: engagement in prostitution is punished by death, while prostitution is legal. They need to kill the major. Then, they find out that an underground organization is behind the ban on prostitution and is picking up speed and converting other parts of the continent. And after weeks of following the breadcrumbs of information next to their real story, they find out that this organization is ….

One of my DMs is my gf. So I think that if I were to cause such a situation, it might play out something like:

ME: I go look for a brothel.
DM/GF: Sure, you do that. Now, what's everyone else up to?
ME: that's fine, we can play it out later 😏

Please remember that your DM is a person. They are also playing the game and deserve to have fun, and for their boundaries to be respected. They are not just a physics engine for your shenanigans.

That being said, some DMs in specific groups might be totally fine with this. Just don't spring it on someone without prior discussion and consent. That is (among other things) what session zero is for.

I wish that I had talked about that in my session 0. At least the player who was playing a horny character realized that I was a little uncomfortable with it.

You absolutely do not have to RP this. You can say "No." You can say "Ok, you go off and do that, what's everyone else doing?"

Exactly this. I had a character go to a brothel in a campaign I ran. I just said okay, you go to the brothel and have whatever you consider a good time. No further detail or RP was requested or required.

I will add that you can also charge them a fortune for it.

Nope, no, that’s encouraging their behavior. Now your player thinks you’re giving them a quest to earn enough money to play out their brothel scene.

I did this to my brother in law. He critically failed every single roll I've never seen that many 1's. He woke up married to an "elf" named Ralph and a mysterious -1 to CON that went away next time he drank a healing potion.

Lmao, roll-playing at its best!

I must use this in my game!

Nope sorry, you found the one city with no brothels.
