Fix'd up the character sheets. I'd respond now with updates on the RP thread, but I'm waiting for a couple specific folks to respond first since this scene sort of ties back to their characters (E.G. It would require me to assume direct control of them to keep them from getting screwed over quite literally).
I added in the corruption scores. At 40 corruption you'll start making will saves to resist submitting automatically in a fight (they'll start out low like 4-6 on will saves, and go up from there as corruption goes up), at ~60-75 "points" you'll begin to hear The Unnamed One/Irilin's voice even if you don't follow them, and at 100 "points" you'll be considered "completely corrupted beyond redemption," and will accept Irilin (or in some cases The Unnamed One) as your deity. Players who reach 100 points will be given the option between retiring their character or continuing to play them. There are
technically ways to reduce your corruption when it reaches 100 (you know how it says you can unwittingly transfer corruption points?), but they're very likely to get a sword shoved through your gut. Healing magic cannot cure corruption when it reaches 100 points, and while you
could go to a church to have corruption removed, doing so tends to be expensive since they'll more or less tell you "stop adventuring for a few weeks/months" instead of encouraging your habits.
Certain actions will naturally reduce corruption (such as praying at a holy idol) while other actions will cause your corruption drops to stagnate. Some actions other than mating with monsters can also raise corruption (praying at a statue of Irilin, or defecating on a statue of Radamis, for instance).
As a general rule of thumb- So long as you aren't screwing everything with (and in some cases without) a pulse, and keep demons off your tails, you shouldn't have to worry
too much about corruption affecting you. Demons are corruption powerhouses... While a blue slime for instance will only give you 5 corruption points if it does its business, a Lemure will give you 5 automatically if it sexually grapples you, another 5 if it penetrates, and an additional 5 if it finishes

Yep! It's a really nice power, but the side effects make it so that using it willy nilly can be a bad idea.

Totally.
Nah, I figured given her past, she'd learn quickly how to resist unwanted advances. So for instance, if she mated with a hornet, she'd know how to avoid mating with hornets in the future.
EDIT: As a side note, I'm going to put up a poll here. What do you guys think of using NWN as the basis for non-overland areas? It takes me a little longer to set them up, but it does help with immersion. Yay or Nay? I'll still look at other tools, but it's a nice one for creating atmosphere.
