Pathfinder NPC romance rules will let players forge loving relationships or "have a villains to lovers arc", much to their GMs dismay
"Let's be real, we know what they're gonna use it for" says Pathfind🌱er's organized play co-ordinator

Pathfinder lead designer ♐Logan Bonner took to Twitch the other day to discuss the upcoming Pathfinder NPC Core rulebook, and while there's some interesting content promised, love is most certainly going to be in the air for the would-be NPC romancers at your game table.
The NPC Core rulebook is an attempt to improve NPCs and give GMs everything they need to populate a bustling settlement at a glance.

"This covers romantic relationships, but it also covers any other close relationships," Bonner makes cleꦰar. And sure, these connections don't always have to be romantic, but as Organizing Play Coodinator Alex Speidel notes "Let's be real, we know what they're gonna use it for."
Whatever kind of relജationship you want 𓆉to forge with your Pathfinder NPCs, Bonner says you'll be able to "Give tokens and commit insults that improve or ruin your relationship."

"The marketing team got together in a Zoom cal♍l, and for 90 minutes made the worst puns and ཧpick-up lines and jokes we could possibly think of, and then we put some of them on Valentines," says Speidel. "I apologise for nothing that I did at that time," he adds. "It was a delightful time."
