I dunno what the link between Shadowheart and masochism/submissive is.
But like I've stated before I want seduction to be a part of persuasion and there's a lot you could do with that in the game.
Including the patrons like Mizora, why not let the players take a more submissive stance towards them for example or vise versa?
But yeah, I'd like to see more femme fatale character archetypes for protagonists in RPG's in general ( and the male equivelant too ).
Lemme use my Charisma in that way, not everyone wants to play a brute or just convince people with '' big brain logic '' alone.
There could even be some fun options where you team up with Astarion to do it lol.
I kinda like that archetype too where characters almost take sexual pleasure in violence or even enter a sort of religious trance that isn't just '' me mad, me smash '' ( Witch Elves in Warhammer for example ).
Characters who enjoy what they're doing almost like their violence is a form of art.
Protagonists in RPG's just tend to lack identity a lot of the time, I do understand it to some extent because devs need to try and appeal to a wide variety of different playstyles but I still think that it's possible to give protagonists stronger and more defined personalities too.
