We introduced two new PCs to the group, so we had them as a warrior ferelden woman fighting a city elf rogue in a tavern in Denerim. Round one, move one, she gets initiative, rolls triple six with a punch. Devastating damage, she breaks his nose, he goes flying across the bar, accidentally kicks the female human barmaid in the face, finishes up by going airborne, smashing the very expensive mirror there.
It wound up turning into a wild west style bar brawl, for about 1/3 of the session, with the face kicker flirting with the fenale human barmaid to soften her resolve to get repaid. she counters with her own flriting, he falls for it, and within a short while, her father wanting the elf lad to prove himself worthy, hiring the party to go to the woods to the southeast past Dragon's peak to scout for a special wood for the teryn.
It was very awkward to try and roleplay out me as the female PC flirting with the other player, both male, so we sort of said "she bats her eyelashes", "uh huh, I failed my will roll." I'm a 6'4" 260 lb Navy vet. The only actual woman we had as a player was greatly amused at all this, she was the nose smashing warrior, that started it all.
But I figure there''s some story there.
Just awkward to play female NPCs for me. But the story went that way.
