Prostitution is a facet of fantasy RPGs that go all the way back to some of the earliest books released for Dungeons and Dragons. While there has been controversy surrounding sex workers in the game, most will acknowledge they are an obvious aspect of most worlds where adventurers are looking to carouse the night away after surviving their last quest. And whether your setting has a brothel in every town worth the name, cults dedicated to various gods and goddesses of love or merely taverns and inns where doxies tend to gather in search of a client for a night, this supplement is full of unique practitioners of the world’s oldest profession.

These NPCs can be used for far more than just set dressing, however. Many of them come with small mysteries attached to them that can be used as plot points, or they might be individuals learned in the magic arts in addition to their usual profession. They may have heard rumors in the sheets that could help adventurers uncover the truth of a conspiracy, or they might even be former warriors, crusaders and more who have taken up a new trade. Many of them may still remember their old trade well enough, and they might teach younger adventurers the things they need to know, or even take up the sword and the spell one last time to help out the party. How you use these characters is up to you!

Here are some sample results:

40. Brann Barrack: A woodsman for most of his life, Brann held an ax from the moment he was old enough to swing it. When the timber mill closed, though, he saw no reason to pack up his few possessions and move on to the next tract of forest. Instead, he raised a glass at the local pleasure palace, and when the opportunity came to earn himself a little coin, he decided to take it. The house pays him far better than the forest ever did, and while he’s just as sore at the end of the day, he finds his work to be overall far more pleasant.

41. Tauriel Laronde: A thick-bodied creature with a perfectly-carved physique, this oread turns heads whenever she enters a room. Though her expression tends to be enigmatic, she’s not shy about letting her clients know when she’s enjoying herself. To the chagrin of those who enter her chambers, though, she’s also not shy about letting them know when they’re failing to meet her standards. While this has led to some confrontations, it’s also led to something of a competition among several clients, who have taken to measuring their own virility by who was best able to satisfy Tauriel.

42. Sundaru Vinds: Tanned dark by the sun, and with a body sculpted by his time on sand and surf alike, Sundaru has an infectious smile that always seems to hint at a shared secret. With a necklace of three white seashells, Sundaru is what locals call a high tide lover; someone who brings a night of intensity to crash upon one’s shores, and then they’re gone with the rising sun. While this wasn’t always a term used for those in the profession of pleasure, it’s the most common one used by those who walk the beaches with coin jingling in their neck pouches, looking for a little adventure as the tide rolls in.
