Sexual fetishism, or erotic fetishism, is the sexual arousal a person receives from any physical thing (traditionally, an inanimate object) that is not normally considered sexual in nature. The object of interest is called the fetish, the person a fetishist who has a fetish for that object.

If a charater is merely turned on by the presence of something, this is only a Quirk, worth 1 point ("Likes women in high heels"). The character may be distracted by the appearance of her fetish.

Serious fetishishm may be Compulsive Behavior, or Odious Personal Habit, and it may be grounds for adding a Secret or Social Stigma to the character.

It is suggested that the GM forbids anything inappropriate to the game, or offensive to the players on a personal level.
