Never been angrier as a DM than the time when my exes tried to turn a fun, horny campaign into some other weird bullshit, called the NPC a groomer and a rapist, and tried to indirectly control the sex lives of all the fake characters in the game. Somehow managed to figure out how to finagle the shit into a new questline, dumped the whole first campaign I had written, so that she could feel justified in her BS.
The “grooming”: The NPC is a deity personified first as an empty room and then anthropomorphized into the dark, wispy shape of an androgynous human. One character wanted to bang him and so he basically said, “Listen, we can, but before we do, I will inform you that we have indeed done it before as your other incarnations. It does some wacky shit to your brain but I think you were into it. Sleep on it?”
She lost her mind when she found out about it, demanded that all character whispers be opened, and had her character smugly yell at the NPC. Realistically they wouldn’t care but it was obvious she wanted something big out of it, so… I ran with it.
