Challenge 2, Part 10: Transformations II

Skye

“Please stop trying to make comments section hashtags a thing,” Harper moans.

Skye didn’t listen to that, or frankly, much of anything since her placements were announced. First place? Me? For both polls? How was that possible? Skye rushes up and hugs her lady love, nuzzling into the sea elf’s breast. Harper hugs back, giving her a kiss on the top of her head.

“Thank you, my love. I don’t deserve the audience’s praises.”

“Of course you do, Skye. You worked so hard.” Awww... My love knows just what to say.

“I’m glad that you appreciate it, love. Now, when are you marrying the rest of them? And when are we all going to give The Lady Her proper due? I’ll be glad to help.”

“In due time. I don’t want to **** them into something they don’t want. And I know you will help when the time comes, love.”

Skye pouts a little at her love’s response. Need to work on my love’s devotion. “For the challenge, I wanted to help The Lady be able to reach out to our home, to bring her radiance to everyone. I guess I could have done a better job. Next time, audience, I will help more people embrace The Lady. Thank you for your feedback.”

Harper shakes her head and gives her drow another kiss on the top of her head. Ariel starts her bit in Aquan, “<Awww, how naively sweet.> Let’s see the transformations for Skye.”

Ariel ignores the side-eye Harper gives her as the screen changes to show the transformation options for Skye:

Tie Me Up! – While Skye certainly has the mindset of a surface-loving drow, she really should experience the more dominant drow culture. Skye gains +1 Dexterity, a proficiency in Sleight of Hand, and an expertise in Knot Tying. In addition, she will be unable to fall into her reverie unless someone (either herself or another) within 30 ft of her is immobilized in the drow equivalent of shibari knots. The immobilized person will still be able to sleep (or fall into reverie) and will suffer no ill effects from the ropeplay session. The person who spends the night tied up will naturally feel more horny and submissive to Harper (and Skye, if Skye did not tie herself up) for the following 24 hours (Drow).

Hey, Listen! – What’s a ranger without a pet? What’s Harem Hotel without some sex? Skye learns the Find Familiar spell, which she can cast without needing SP or material components. Skye will automatically cast the spell out of combat whenever her familiar, a very perverted pixie named Trixie, has fallen, unless she spend considerable constant effort to resist. Trixie will loooooove to encourage Skye to embrace the slutty side (Ranger).

How Appropriate! You Fight like a Cow! – Skye really needs some extra defense, doesn’t she? Skye gains the Defensive Duelist feat. In exchange, she will be unable to resist adding sexual innuendo and insults to her verbal repertoire. Successfully blocking attacks will increase her arousal (Duelist).

“Ms. Ariel, I would like the rope one please.”

“Skye, love, are you sure?” Harper asks, “I mean, I’ll support you either way, but having a pixie as a familiar is crazy powerful. She’ll get a couple of high level spells that she can cast for you.”

“Love, I wanted to tie myself up for you already. This will make it safe.” Then Skye walks to her wife and give her a kiss on the cheek. “<I want to be your sexy little wife present.>”

“<I can’t argue with that, love.>” Harper replies, then adds a kiss of her own, “If she wants the rope one, let her have the rope one.”

“Awww, how sweet,” Ariel coos, “In fourth place, our first new girl, Aelene!”

Aelene

Aelene, her breastplate and pauldrons removed to allow for her shoulder to be given a better inspection, walks up to the sea elf, faking confidence she is not currently feeling. The sea elf gives her a side hug and a slight smile. “<Good job.>”

“<Thank you, dear lady.> For my submission, I had volunteer soldiers become living entities within the wall I was defending. Had I known I was supposed to make things perverted, I suppose I could have made their forms more sexual, perhaps give them the ability to relieve the sexual needs of good soldiers. Still, the intent of my submission would not have changed. I will do my duty and defend my people. I will not be shamed for it.”

Aelene looks at the heroine she is bound to and is pleased by the smile on her face. “Good job, Aelene. Again, I hope your plan worked. Thank you for trying to turn this challenge to the good.”

Ariel notes, “For our new girls, they will be getting three transformations. Each set of choices are built around a theme. Aelene’s first set concerns her appearance. Let’s see them.”

The display loads up Aelene’s first set of transformations:

Bikini Armor – As a Mirror Knight, Aelene must be armored well; as a **** slut, she needs to look good. Aelene loses her proficiency with heavy armor, replacing it with proficiency in bikini armor, armor pieces that exposes at least 85% of her body, but provides protection as if she were in full plate armor. To help her, she will be given a starter set of bikini armor (Mirror Knight).

Perfect Beauty in Battle – As a Mirror Knight, Aelene wades into battle; as a **** slut, she needs to look good. Aelene’s hair, make-up, and skin is not longer negatively affected by the efforts of exercise or combat. Any scars Aelene has that Harper does not find sexy are also removed. She always looks her most pristine (Elf).

Noble Girl Best Girl – As a fan of literature Harper would call Isekai, Aelene always sees herself in the noble from the world the heroine finds herself in. So, she takes on the appearance of one of her favorite noble sidekicks, with shining blonde hair, fair skin, a lot less visible muscle, and big tits. This change of appearance does not affect her stats in any way (Inverse Isekai).

Aelene reads the transformations slowly. “I’m sorry, but Common is a second language for both my people and me. I never have to read in it. Can I get a copy in Elvish?”

“Elvish, especially in text, is not great for the broadcast. I’m sure your Mistress can explain anything that is confusing.”

Aelene looks at the sea elf. “<Please?>”

As Harper briefly explains the transformations, Aelene’s mind spins. They can really do this?

Finally, Aelene answers the unspoken question, “I’m torn. The pragmatist in me is interesting in this ‘bikini armor’ idea. The problem with heavy armor is that it is, well, heavy. Having the same protection as heavy armor with such little weight sounds useful for added maneuverability. The other two options feel incomplete. Perfect Beauty in Battle would make me feel clean during fights and remove the scars that, in part, make me so unattractive, but leaves me with these tiny breasts. Noble Girl Best Girl would get me the breasts, but leave the scars and take away the muscles I worked so hard to obtain; I’m also not happy that I won’t look like I belong in my family. Any way I can take the best parts of all 3?”

“Not how the game works, Aelene. Harper, thoughts?”

“Aelene, first things first. I find you very attractive, so don’t cut yourself down like that. Sure, we all probably have little flaws that bug us, but they are just little flaws; if your bust size bothers you, we can find a transformation in the shop that will work better. Honestly, I’m fine with either of the first two.”

“Great, the second set will help Aelene earn some more XP. Let’s take a look.”

The display shows off the second set of transformations:

Ultimate Selfcest – Aelene becomes sexually attracted to her own body, especially when she summons her Mirror Knight reflection. She will seek to use her reflection in sexual acts. When she does so, she gains 1 XP per other participant, or 2 XP for her Mistress (Mirror Knight).

Good Girls Edge – One of the quirks of High Elves from Aelene’s dimension is that less than 5% of elven births are male. So, naturally, breeding opportunities for High Elves are rare. For every day that Aelene goes without orgasm, she gains 1 XP for every hour she spent that day edging herself (Elf).

Noble Girl Not Only Girl – The noble sidekick in Aelene’s romances never seems to score with the other girls in the harem. Aelene shouldn’t want to be like that. Every morning upon first rising from her reverie, a random member of the harem will appear in Aelene’s mind. She will intensely desire to have a threesome with her and Harper. If she does so, she earns 3 XP (Inverse Isekai).

After Harper does some translation, Aelene gets very angry. “Those XP rewards are so small for such degeneracy!”

Harper asks, “Help me do some math here, Aelene. What is your current level?”

“Level 5,” she proudly answers.

Harper calmly replies, “Not bad. Assuming no rollover of XP from your world’s system to ours, you need 10 XP to get your next level.”

Aelene’s brain breaks for several minutes. Once she comes back to reality, she looks at the options in a new light. “So, the third option is out, because it has by far the lowest payoff with only a flat 3 XP per day. The question is, would the lower XP cap on that selfcest effect be obtainable enough that it makes more sense to go with that over just edging myself for 20 hours a day straight until I hit the level cap? Hmmm... It’s an interesting question.”

“Ok, audience, I know watching Aelene goon for the entire round might be tempting, but please don’t give her that edging transformation. I see the min-max gears a turning there. She may just sabotage her chances at getting personhood VP just to hit Level 20 as quickly as possible. I’m fine with the other two.”

Aelene gives Harper a very dirty look. The sea elf replies, “I know this hasn’t been explained to you yet, but the minimum goal of this game is 100 VP. You get that by interacting with the harem, especially me. The other transformations give you XP for things you should be doing already to win this game. And trust me, there are ways for us to earn a bunch of XP in a single afternoon. So, we may hit the level cap without that min-max leveling attitude.”

“I still want to maximize my XP gain. Make me a good girl.”

“Oooh, drama. The third set are some fun toys or a free feat. Irene, if you please?”

The final set of transformations for Aelene pop up:

Through the Looking Glass – Aelene receives a modal Vorpal Double-Bladed Scimitar. It has two modes: a weapon mode and a sex toy mode. When she crits with it in weapon mode, the blade instantly decapitates the foe struck. When used in sex toy mode, Aelene can use her bonus action to make a Seduction check; on a critical success, both users of the toy orgasm simultaneously (Mirror Knight).

Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop – Aelene receives a clit ring of free action, which prevents her from being affected by difficult terrain or being magically restrained. When combat is over, Aelene will compulsively edge herself for 5 minutes for every magical effect this ring prevented (Elf).

I Must Save My Lady! – There is always the scene in Aelene’s romances where the noble girl puts herself in danger to save her heroine love. Aelene’s now ready to do so. Aelene gains the Sentinel feat. She will be sexually aroused whenever she defends Harper from danger (Inverse Isekai).

Once again, Aelene needs some translation. When she gets it, she seems confused by one thing in particular, “Um, what is a clit ring?”

Harper blushes as she explains it. Aelene blushes too, “Perverted. No thank you. Of the other two options, vorpal blades are powerful, but dangerous. I presume the Sentient feat allows me to defend others better? I wish I could have saved my troops back on the wall better.”

“I kind of want to see how the sex toy mode works,” Harper counters, “But the Sentient feat is fine.”

“Whew, that was a lot for one contestant. In third place, our other new girl, Mattie.”

Mattie

Mattie struts her way to Harper, rolling her hips as she goes. “Well, Sarge, if you think fortifying a wall is impressive, prepare to be blown away. I stopped an eldritch horror from releasing armageddon. I was a little rushed, so I couldn’t make it super sexy. But do you know what isn’t sexy, audience? A dead universe.”

“Excellent shot, Cap’n. As far as I can tell, you had the best impact with your submission. Still kind of wish you could have avoided killing all those cultists, but I admit I don’t know enough about the situation to understand how feasible that would have been.”

“Like I just explained for the last girl, our new girls will be getting three transformations. Each set of choices are built around a theme. Mattie’s first set concerns her appearance. Let’s see them.”

The screen changes to display the first set of transformations for Mattie:

Surf-Rider – The spirit of Mamala flows through Mattie’s veins. So, of course, let’s bring it to the surface. Mattie becomes a crocodile-girl, modeled after Volia atholus (an extinct crocodilian from Hawaii), which the expected teeth, tail, and clawed hands one would expect. Mattie is also de-aged to her physical peak and given proficiency in surfing (Soldier).

Secret Agent (Wo)man – Mattie is basically a spy for the US Army. She should look the stereotypical part. Mattie is only allowed to wear skin-tight leather or latex clothes. To get her started, she gets a magic leather catsuit. Mattie is also de-aged to her physical peak and given proficiency in light armor (Spy – Level 0)

Made of Stardust – Did you know Mattie has a PhD in astrophysics? Let’s bring that factoid to the surface. Mattie becomes an astral elf, gaining the ability to innately teleport, a souped up reverie, and astral elven knowledge. She’s also aged up to meet community standards for elven age of consent laws (Paranormal Investigator).

“Well, first thing, those transformation themes are WAAAAY better than the ones I had on the last season. Thank you.”

“I hate to ask, Mattie, but what did that fox guy give you?”

“My themes were all plays on military abbreviations: Chain of Command, which was supposed to make me a submissive subordinate, Suck on Something, which was supposed to give me oral fixations. Most of my votes ended up with the Copulation with **** one winning, which...” Angry tears start to pour down Mattie’s face. Harper gives her a side hug.

“It’s okay. You’re safe here. I’ll protect you.”

The tears stop. “Sarge, I’m a big girl. But thanks. On the specifics, please no to the weird dino croc one. Look, I get appealing to my cultural heritage, but crocs are not cute. The space elf one? That one sounds fun, though I don’t know what all of that means. The leather clothing restriction is fine, I guess? Why does that one have a Level?”

“Oh, some transformations can lead to gaining a class. I’m guessing Spy is some Rogue subclass?”

“Like that DoD nerdiness some of the guys in the squad tried to talk me into playing?”

“Yup.”

“But for realsies?”

“Yup.”

“That actually sounds kind of cool. Thoughts on these, Sarge?”

“I agree with your assessment. Wrap her in tight leather or elf her, please.”

Ariel notes, “Great, the next set revolves around some compulsions to make life a little sexier. Let’s put them up.”

The next set is displayed:

Chain of Command – While Mattie is generally good at respecting her superiors, this will ensure perfection. Mattie will become obedient and submissive to all harem members with more VP than her (or, at the end of the game, all harem members in higher final standing that her), obeying orders with precision. This is especially true for her Mistress, who she can only refer to in appropriate titles (Soldier).

Observation Post – A spy’s job is to observe, record, and report. Mattie will now feel compelled to do so for her Mistress’s pleasure. Whenever Mattie notices sexy happenings going on that she is not personally involved in, she will feel compelled to hide and collect information. She’ll present her findings to her Mistress at the first convenient opportunity. Touching herself is optional, but encouraged (Spy).

Invert the Polarity – Normally, arcane magical power is drained from orgasming. No longer will that be so with Mattie. To regain SP, she must now masturbate to orgasm with at least 1 other observer present (other limitations to regaining SP apply). Once a day, if the other observer cums while watching her, they both regain all SP (Paranormal Investigator).

“Oh, here comes the garbage. Fuck that first one. The second one makes me want to make voyeur porn for Sarge? Really? The third one is just weird. Maybe it makes sense to you, Sarge?”

“Oh, it’s another class thing. SP is our systems equivalent of spell slots. So, instead of losing your ability to use magic if you cum, you would need to cum before regaining your magic. And if I watch you, I’d get my magic refilled. But, it wouldn’t do much for you unless you get magic, which will require not being human anymore. So, unless you want all of that, I’m fine with you giving me harem porn.”

Mattie thinks on it for a while. Ariel interrupts her musing, “The third set is to give you something fun and sexy. Have a gander.”

The third and final set is displayed:

Out of Ammo! – What’s a girl to do when she trained with firearms and will be dropped into a world without them? Why, learn a different weapon. Mattie now has proficiency in all weapons classified in DoD as either simple or martial, gaining expertise in the use of one of those weapon of her choice. She will be sexually aroused whenever she uses her weapon expertise to slay a foe of her Mistress (Soldier – Level 0).

A Girl and Her Toys – What’s a spy without some cool toys? Mattie is given proficiency in disguise kits and a special little mask. The mask starts with 2 charges. She can spend a charge to assume the exact appearance of another girl in the harem, Mistress excluded, until the mask is removed. While wearing the appearance of another, both Mattie and the girl she is assuming the appearance of feel each other’s sensations. Charges are regained by bringing the girl she is assuming the appearance of to orgasm (Spy).

Shouldn’t Cantrips Be Free? – What’s the fun it that? Fine. Mattie now can learn cantrips as per the usual rules of DoD. She is also given an egg vibrator. The vibe starts with 3 charges, regaining charges when it is used to bring herself to orgasm. She can spend a charge to power the vibe either on or off. When inserted and powered on, the vibe allows her to cast any cantrip she knows without spending SP. The vibe does grow in size and vibrational power every time she does so, shrinking back to it’s original size when powered down (Paranormal Investigator; Artificer – Level 0).

Mattie reads through the transformations, then reads them again. “So, I get really good with a medieval weapon and killing with it makes me horny; I get a mask that let’s me impersonate another girl at the cost of making us both horny; or I get an egg vibe that makes magic easier in exchange of turning me on? The weapon one can lead me to some kind of soldier class and the egg vibe one can lead me to being an artificer, whatever that is. Sarge, wanna explain the bits I missed?”

“Artificers are magic tinkerers. They build magic items. Probably the only way you’d be able to get a gun if that first transformation in this set is to be taken literally. Cantrips are normally free to cast whenever, but our system puts a small cost on them that the egg would let you get around. The soldier one also makes you competent in using all of the DoD weapons, so you would have ways to fight without the whole ‘getting horny’ thing.”

“Ok, now that I have seen all three sets, give me the Paranormal Investigator ones. All of them. A couple of the spy ones are cool, but Mama needs her guns.”

“I fine with any of the ones Mattie wanted.”

“Again, a lot of talking for this contestant. Only a couple of more left. In second place, that one.” Ariel points at Daphne.
