Sexual/fetishistic use of restraints and paraphernalia such as cuffs, gags, and ropes.

• If a character is bound non-sexually (eg, a villain tying the hero to railroad tracks), use bound instead.
• If there are bondage gear and related objects laying around not being used (rope on a table) or are being used non-sexually (a muzzle on a feral horse, a criminal in handcuffs, etc.) just tag it with the object names.
• If a character is held down by tentacles or by an another character, use restrained or pinned instead.

Bondage is usually rated Explicit, except for light bondage (done with common household items and similar) which may be rated Questionable.
