Default: DX-5, Acrobatics-5
Erotic Art (DX/Average) represents general knowledge of advanced sexual technique.[1] Precise details are best left unsaid in polite company. GURPS: Space states that in a multi-sapient game this skill is per species[2], but it might feel silly to spend points on multiple specialties.
Cinematic Powers[]
Thaumatology Chinese Elemental Powers (p. 19 )talks about cinematic abilities for it:
- transferring FP equal to Margin of Success (the sum of both if both have and succeed)
- Will-based roll to avoid pregnancy (if such a rule is needed)
also introduces REALISTIC: success is euphoria while a crit success is ecstasy
- lasts for Margin*2 (min1) days
Problem is no base activation time is given for purposes of Time Spent modifiers.
Realistic applies to base use, Harmony with the Tao is needed for cinematic.
