Romance is an optional feature in Baldur's Gate 3. The player can start a romantic relationship with other characters - be it a brief fling or long-term. Some relationships can find their peak in sexual scenes, while others will follow different paths.
Characters can show interest on the player regardless of race and gender. Most important relationships will occur only with companions. Romance is available in multiplayer, but players won't be able to start a romance with each other. Some companions will be okay with being in a polyamorous relationship if the character pursues more than one companion and asks to be with them, but companions will not initiate any polyamory on their own. You cannot be in a poly relationship that includes multiple Origin characters.[Needs Verification]
There are also some sexual encounters the player can initiate with NPCs who aren't companions.

Sorn and Nym Orlith:
Sorn and Nym Orlith are twins and courtesans at Sharess' Caress, a brothel just outside Baldur's Gate. You can pay 500 gold to sleep with one of them though you cannot actually pay them for solo service if a romanced companion is in the party. If you have a romanced companion or companions in the party with you, they will offer to both sleep with you and your romance(s) for 1000 gold instead, however, most companions will refuse until you have completed their personal quest, save Karlach who always refuses. To sleep with them, you must send any party members not involved in the affair to camp before you can initiate the scene. Note that this scene is not animated, and takes place in the dark. You may also instead do the quest Find the 'Stern Librarian' Ffion and receive their company for free as a quest reward.

- After dealing with the Goblin-Druid Grove conflict in Chapter One, if the player does not spend the night with Lae'zel she will do so with either Astarion or Wyll - as long as they are still in the camp.
