A roleplay scenario in which one person acts as a captive while another plays the captor, with the power imbalance and confinement being the point of the scene rather than a real situation.
People are drawn to it for the psychological charge of surrender or control, often within a scripted setup such as a kidnap scene, interrogation, or cell. It works best when both partners agree on the premise and limits well before anything starts.
Worth knowing: Because the scenario involves restraint and power exchange, agree on safewords and a way to signal distress, and plan aftercare for the drop that can follow.
Also called: captor/captive play, prisoner roleplay, kidnapping scene, interrogation scene, cell play, hostage scenario
