>>Three players, half the party, are now all trying to husbando him
Let it happen.

>>54397166
real talk, you have something the players care about

Exploit it. Exploit it for all it's worth

Sounds gay as fuck, I'd allow it.

Or just say he's already taken, your choice.

>>54397166
It's a fucking character. You made him. Think how he would react.

You forgot the correct image.

Send these bitches (or queers, no judgement) on the emotional roller coaster of their lives. Harem animu this shit with exploitive hijinx. They'd probably go wherever you want if this was an inkling of finding something to cure his illness. Then when it reaches its peak, have him die from his illness.

Have the kid be kidnapped by Pike Mence the Electromancer

The boys illness is actually some terrible alien virus and it becomes The Thing meets harem anime.

Whether you intended it or not, you've created an NPC that your players care about. Use this to your advantage. Potential stems include the hype medicine and kill him route that other anon mentioned, but I'd let them actually cure him. Over the course of time after the cure make him grow rapidly into the man he was meant to be, then force him to choose one of his suitors, add in at least one NPC suitor, I would use 2, a childhood friend type and a gold digging cunt(minor nobility though) that only took interest after he was cured. His parents should push for the one of noble birth, either your players support the one who actually cares about him, or they can challenge the union in their own, whether by diplomacy or force.

Give thanks, your players have given you at least 10 hours of compelling game play without any substantial effort from you.

Fair cop.

>>54397439

He was two lines of note and a mental note this morning, he's not even a fucking character yet. 90% of his characterization was improv during the session.

Oh shit that's great, I'm using that. They're definitely going to want to be the suitors themselves though, so I'll probably ditch the childhood friend and it's just 'if one of the chicks can't get him/the dude can't set shit up so people don't ask questions it goes to the golddigging turbocunt'.

TY Anon.

Using the threat of getting cucked to light a fire under the players' asses, I like it.

have his wife stop by

>>54399741
Long winded anon here.

Even if they want to be the suitors themselves, use a second NPC who actually cares for the Lordling, it'll give the half the party who doesn't want him for themselves someone to support. Keeps the whole group involved in the story, and potentially creates internal conflict which gives you more hours of enjoyment from the same source.

Aaah, fair enough.

Don't forget that the nation's ruler might want to stir things up!
They may not approve of the parents' choice (creates an alliance that they don't want) and have someone else in mind.
Suitable options include:
Ugly relative of one of their supporters;
Someone that will destabilise the noble's alliances;
Someone with horde of spendthrift relatives that will descend on noble's family and leech off them, preventing their expansion plans.

Noble doesn't always mean relevant, taking this particular line to the national level is reaching a bit in my opinion. But then again it isn't my campaign.

>>54401196
True.
But it can also be applied at regional levels, remembering that the whole feudal chain of obligation stretched from the lowest knights on their manors up through various geographic and fealty links until you reach the top.
