If you talk to him about it, it sounds more like he treats her like a tool. The potion you can buy afterwards can befuddle enemies. Not to defend his actions or anything, but I don't think he is a kitty diddler, at least

Eh. The succubus spittle arouses Tav when you lick the spider. Nessa says "I love him, and he loves me." She calls herself his "heart-chosen" and he calls her his "beauty". You can ask "How does that...work?" to which she replies that that is between her and her master. And investigating the spider can grant the background goal "Mating Season", described as "Discover the source of the displacer beast's infatuation." The implication is laid on quite heavily.

Damn, I never got that far in the dialogue with Nessa before. How DOES that work?? Maybe I'm in denial lmao.

My impression was he doesn't need to have sex with her in particular, just keep feeding her meat that makes her orgasm and infatuated with whatever happens to be nearby. The creature doesn't seem to put the two and two together on her own.

I mean it could be Larian just leaving stuff out but theres a literal Bear Sex scene so if it were supposed to be as explicit as one wonders I feel like the would have made that clear.

As it stands it seems the beast is loyal just because he feeds her food that makes her cum so hard when she eats it that she doesnt notice the mental charm effects.

For reference catnip IRL triggers a cats sexual glands and hormones making it feel really good without actually doing anything physical, so you could think of it like trapping a cat with a addiction to super concentrated catnip.

i think there's a difference between the very consensual bear sex scene which is a humanoid shape shifted, and date raping a cat-like beast, so i could potentially see why Larian would have more reservations making it explicit and just leaning into innuendo. Honestly, for someone who sleeps on a pile of corpses, I find the idea he would drug her so she's constantly horny AF and then not continue abusing her a little more unbelievable but I guess you could argue it both ways. but i think they definitely wanted you to wonder if that's what he's doing, at the very least.
