*”Goddamnit… Okay… Fine.”*

You hit on Putin. You walk up, “Oh great leader! I am so happy to have met such a virile and intelligent man! Have you ever had your rusty trombone played?” You say with a wink and a coy smile.

Putin is stone faced at first but suddenly becomes very red in the cheeks. He leans over to a guard standing next to him, whispers something in what sounds like Russian, and the guard punches you in the jaw. You take 4d6 damage and immediately go unconscious.

You awake to a sensation of freezing water splashing across your naked body. With a gasp, you search your surroundings trying to gain your bearings. You are in a dark room, again, naked, and handcuffed to a metal chair that is bolted to the floor. Putin is leaning against a table in front of you.

As he speaks to the guard that holds the bucket, the guard leaves you two alone together.

“I will remove.” He says in a thick Russian accent. and points to your hands. He then walks behind you. You feel so vulnerable. This killer, this man known for his terrible anger and destructive nature has you completely at his mercy. You are unable to do anything but shiver. Whether out of fear or coldness, you can’t be sure.

You feel his hand grasp your shoulder as he braces himself to bend down. His hand follows your arm, giving slight squeezes here and there.

“Strong.” is all he says. As you feel his face close to your ear and neck. His hot breath hits your skin and causes goosebumps to form around where it touched. He lets out a light laugh in response.

“GARY! WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING!”

*”Wha… I’m telling you how your sexual encounter with Putin went. Why? What’s the problem? YOU wanted this! You said, “I try and seduce Putin.”*

“I said, “I try and “Reduce” Putin…” Ya know, the *reduction* spell you gave me for saving the Ukrainian village last session… The one that automatically reduces the influence a person has over their faction. Jesus. Gary… how far were you gonna take this? He’s a goddamned war criminal and a monster…”


*”… but… I… You… I heard you say, “Seduce”! I swear, I… I think that’s where we’re gonna leave it for tonight.”*

And they never played together again…
