* ''WebVideo/Dimension20'': In "Fantasy High", Jawbone is openly polyamorous and ReallyGetsAround, but upon settling down with Sandralynn at the end of Freshman Year, he remains monogamous with her to respect her feelings.
** In Sophomore Year, Garthy O'Brien owns multiple pleasure houses, sleeps around just as much as Jawbone, and is descended from orcish "fallen devils" whose MO, in their words, is to fuck people into being good. They're clearly still upset when they find out that Sandralynn is in a monogamous relationship after sleeping with her, since that's a major violation of her husband's trust. It doesn't help that Garthy apparently is familiar with Jawbone.

* Touka from ''VisualNovel/{{Nukitashi}}'' believes sex is just one of many forms of communication with which one can get to know their partner without misunderstandings. Therefore, she thinks Seiran Island, where EverybodyHasLotsOfSex, is the pinnacle of mutual understanding.

** Book III finally brings the occasionally mentioned and deeply mysterious Lady Knight to prominence. She's a very patient, very practical, and at times quite ruthless badass, as well as being [[TheTease a tease]] and genuine SexGoddess who sleeps with anyone "attractive, interesting, and interested", and will happily go on about this at some length (though some of that ''might'' be because she finds Hal's reactions funny), casually mentioning that, among many others, her little black book includes Merlin, Morgana, and "a quorum" of the Knights of the Round Table, fondly reminiscing about each. While she ReallyGetsAround, and has to love them and leave them, she's charming, warm-hearted, and fundamentally kind - she remembers them, even if no one else does, she cherishes them, and her temporal combat is ultimately to protect them.

* In ''Literature/DragonBones'', Ward is pleasantly surprised that the beautiful woman in the adventurer group, who sleeps with all the adult men in his group, doesn't cause any jealousy, and is a good companion. [[spoiler:Later subverted in that it turns out she's an enemy spy.]] Ward himself realized, after some experimenting, that he isn't into casual sex, but is tolerant about others having it, and he is rather fond of the man who is known to share the king's bed; either homophobia is not a thing in this setting, or he himself doesn't have it. (The king's habit of getting it on with underage boys, on the other hand, ''is'' frowned upon).

* ''Literature/{{Spellster}}'': Tracker might do anything, but he has some standards. It's just a very low bar. He is very observant of consent, always telling partners he'll never do anything except with them willing, while also being ever concerned for their comfort. He also doesn't use whips, as he's been [[ATasteOfTheLash whipped in the past as punishment]].
