Feedback Alert!: Round Zero Polls

The Show-Runner

Welcome to the first set of polls for the season!

First things first, we have the Best Girl (or Guy) Poll. Pretty simple set up, pretty simple prizes. Starting with Round 1, there will be extra prizes and punishments for the poll. Here is what we are looking at:

• 1st 100 BP
• 2nd 80 BP
• 3rd 60 BP
• 4th 40 BP
• 5th 20 BP
• 6th 0 BP

The Round Zero Transformation Votes are much more complicated. I gave myself quite the doozy of a challenge by making 3 packages of TFs for our soon to no longer be human friends. I am really hoping for no ties here; if ties do happen, I have an obnoxious backup plan. For this round, I’m only going to deal with true ties. For subsequent rounds, where ties won’t be so contradictory, I will do the “treat all options within 1.5% of the winning vote as a tie” thing.

Also, for this season I am not doing the Master/Mistress edit style vetoes I did last time. A much more traditional system of 0.2 vetoes per contestant (rounded to the nearest whole number), wielded by the Host, is being done instead. I don't trust current Mona to wield the veto safely. Current veto count is 1.

So, as you have already seen, each package consists of three things: a species swap, a class selection, and a background TF. The packages also set the starting TF paths for the contestant: one for species, one for class, and one for background. The goal is not only to have interesting TFs that fit the setting, but to build out the contestants' character sheets. I am adapting DnD 5e character building aspects into the pseudo-Powered by the Apocalypse system that I used last season, revised to make life easier for me and try to balance it out (5e is already biased against martial classes and my first go round generally made it worse). So, I am providing some more details than what's in the chapter proper. For species, I will list both the changes to expect, plus the sourcebook I am using for the species part (assuming I own it). For class, I am listing the sourcebook for the subclass I am using. You can look up the species and class details, if you want your vote to be influenced by the mechanical party composition question (though, subsequent contestants can always be used to round that out, so it’s less of a concern than you would expect).

For this round, I went ahead and turned on the comments section for the individual TF votes, partially as an experiment, partially as a way for people to more anonymously talk about the package deals (for example, how I screwed up the pairings; I tried to be thematic in my choices but I could have goofed).

So, without further ado, here's the reminder lists and links for the polls. A few lists have some additional notes. All polls close at 17 February at 7 PM (my time). Enjoy:

Tegan

"The Standard Package" will cure Tegan's Female Athlete Triad condition. So, regardless of the vote, she will be not slowly starving and exercising herself to **** (unless she redeveloped the bad habit of ignoring her body for the sake of performance). Her period will also return at some point.

Robin Hood

• Species: Kitsune (Fox-girl) - Ears, tail, teeth, multi-tail as spell level goes up, ability to consume female cum as a source of food (magic tongue). I would be using the semi-official kitsune race from the Kamigawa "homebrew" from WotC (Kitsune)
• Class: Ranger (Hunter) - Hunter is a Player's Handbook Subclass for Ranger. I will be using the Tasha class feature swaps, changing the pseudo-Hunter's Mark with an actual Hunter's Mark version (Ranger- Hunter).
• Background: Rob from the Rich, Give to the Poor – Like a certain fox that turned so many people into furries, Tegan will want to rob (bras) from the rich and give to the poor. By rich, we mean those with bigger breasts, by poor we mean herself. No breasts bigger than hers will be holstered again if Tegan gets her way (The Other BE)!

Hawkeye

• Species: Ravennefion (Griffon-girl) - Feathers instead of head hair, wings, lion tail, lion legs, increased possessiveness. Mechanically, I will be mixing and matching features between Aarakocra (a bunch of sourcebooks) and Leonin (Theros sourcebook) to form a griffon-girl (Ravennefion)
• Class: Fighter (Arcane Archer) - Arcane Archer is in Xanathar. I will be upping the arcane shot count to make it reasonable (Fighter - Arcane Archer).
• Background: Guardian of the Golden Dildo – Hawkeye is a reformed thief with a heart of gold (more or less) and griffons guard gold in far off places, so let’s play with that. Somewhere in the hotel, a golden dildo will appear. Whoever uses it on themselves will win Tegan’s heart. The dildo will change locations every dawn. How long can Tegan stand watch (Obsessed Tsundere)?

Darryl Dixon

• Species: Valkyrie - Wings, agelessness, divine task to take the worthy dead to [REDACTED], a touch of bloodlust (getting aroused from slaying foes, not the berserker feature). I will be using the Scourge Aasimar, which is in a bunch of sourcebooks (Valkyrie)
• Class: Rogue (Phantom) - Phantom is in Tasha's. Tegan will get the Steady Aim feature (Rogue - Phantom).
• Background: Olympian Amazonian – Tegan is an Olympian, but doesn’t really look like it. While the Standard Package reverses her Female Athlete Triad condition (oh, her first period in several months is gonna suck), this transformation will give her the perfect musculature for her sport. In addition, did you know that, in myth, Amazons would intentionally stop the development of the right breast to prevent it from getting in the way of drawing a bow? Well, Tegan’s left breast (and ONLY the left breast) increases to a D-cup so she looks like she’d fit in with them (Olympian).

Kevin

The Doctor

• Species: Drow Elf (Female) - MtF, ears, hair and skin tone changes, light-sensitive eyes (more irritating than blinding), reverie, tendency towards femdom. Drow is in the Player's Handbook (Drow)
• Class: Cleric (Life) - Life Cleric is in the Player's Handbook (Cleric - Life)
• Background: A Hippocratic Changedance – A key piece of the Hippocratic Oath is to do no harm. Instead of locking Kevin into the form of a female elf, he can switch between his human male form and the form granted by these beginning transformations at will (with a one hour cooldown). All subsequent transformations will apply to only the female form, unless otherwise indicated. Kevin will not be able to access any character features that a human from his dimension would not be able to develop while in his human form (Med Student).

The Sissy

• Species: Hoppalong (Bunny-boi) - Ears, hips and ass expansion (slight), cock shrinkage (moderate), tail, mad hops, slight increase in libido (yes, the in-chapter description stated the Boi sex has a lower libido, but that was compared to the other two sexes). Mechanically, I will be using the Haregon race, which is not in one of the books I own (Hoppalong).
• Class: Cleric (Love) - I will be adapting the Peace Cleric from Tasha's; it was called the Love Cleric subclass in one of the UAs (Cleric - Love)
• Background: I Want to be Pretty – Kevin likes the idea of wearing female-encoded clothing, tailored for a male body. Well, what better way to get him to embrace his desire than by forcing it via magical compulsion? Kevin can no long wear male-encoded clothing. While clothing not encoded to a particular sex is fine, if he exclusively wears female-encoded clothing, he gains +1 Armor (Sissy).

The Goon-bud

• Species: Hu-cow (Male) - Ears, horns, muscle expansion (moderate), tail, increased assertiveness, cock expansion (massive), permanently erect cock, permanent seeping of pre-cum (which is also food [milk]). I'd be adapting Minotaur from the Theros book (Hu-Cow)
• Class: Paladin (Glory) - Either in Tasha's or the Theros book (Paladin - Glory)
• Background: Wanna Have a Sess? – Kevin and Mona have continued their relationship by gooning together over Strife, swapping porn videos in a shared chat. Just because she’s going to eventually be too sexed out to just masturbate on the regular, doesn’t mean Kevin needs to stop. Kevin can only cum while watching porn videos Mona sends him via his phone or other electronic device. N.B.: This transformation will not interfere with the constant pre-cum secretion of male hu-cows (Goon-bud).

Gaia

Save the Plants

• Species: Vine Blight (Plant-girl) - Body made of vines, some vine control, photosynthesis, increased clinginess. Think sexy female swamp thing. I'll be adapting the creature from the Monster Manual of the same name (Vine Blight)
• Class: Druid (Spore) - Either the Ravnica book or Tasha's (Druid - Spore)
• Background: Rapid Return to Nature – Gaia acts like humanity is only a blight? Well, perhaps she should see how her life would change without the benefits humanity offers. Non-magical items of artificial materials rapidly decompose when she attempts to use them. Only 100% organic natural materials will survive her handling it (Environmentalist).

Save the Animals

• Species: Shifter (Variable Animal Girl) - If this one wins, I am going to find or build 4 different random d12 tables, one for each of the four shifter subspecies found in the Eberron book. I will then roll for Gaia's form for the day, every morning. Thus, it's going to be variable (Shifter).
• Class: Druid (Shepard) - Shepard is in Xanathar's (Druid - Shepard)
• Background: Pat the Bunny (or Kitty or Puppy or Whatever) – Gaia was a babysitter at one point. Now that she is an animal-girl, she’s going to experience new forms of nurturing. Gaia now has a fetish for head pats, ear scritches, and other pet play acts, both giving and receiving (Nurturer).

Watch Civilization Burn

• Species: Oread (Magma-girl) - made of magma, obsidian growths throughout the body, can live on geothermal heat, manic glee from destruction. I'll be adapting the creature from the Theros sourcebook of the same name (Oread)
• Class: Druid (Wildfire) - This is both my favorite Druid and found in Tasha's (Druid - Wildfire)
• Background: A Different Kind of Burning – Gaia has a real hate for humanity. Let’s redirect it. Feelings of rage, manic glee (from destruction), and hate are rapidly converted to arousal. The more she burns things around her, the more her loins will burn. Only the cooling touch of her Mistress will relieve Gaia’s inner flames of arousal (Terrorist).

Tessa

"The Standard Package" will be de-aging Tessa to have the apparent age of 25.

The Pen is Mightier...

• Species: Tiefling (Fierna) - horns, eye color change, teeth, skin tone change, tail, fetish to use mind control and other forms of magical persuasion. The tiefling subspecies is in the Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes (Tiefling).
• Class: Bard (Eloquence) - The dreaded Eloquence Bard is in both Tasha's and Theros. It breaks aspects of the game at Level 3, especially if your DM ignores the social interaction rules (Bard - Eloquence).
• Background: ASMR – Mona is a girl that responds to the tingles, so she should have someone that can pull them off. Tessa can only speak in the tone of a husky whisper. She can still project up to a shout with this tone. Tessa’s voice can arouse; the closer she gets to the proper ASMR volume, the more arousing her voice will be (English Teacher).

The Penis is Mightier...

• Species: Doppelganger - base form will look like the monster found in the monster manual (but still female). Of course, Tessa will get shapeshifting features, so she'll look whatever she wants to look like. Also, an increased desire for a variety of lovers and a bit of a breeding (others) kink. Mechanically, going to use the Changeling from the Eberron book (Doppelganger).
• Class: Bard (Glamour) - Glamour bard is in Xanathar's (Bard - Glamour)
• Background: Agency Acquisition – Tessa does not need the money to find her brother anymore, but she already has a following. No need to shut down the Insta-Thot account. Tessa gets herself an agent to manage the day-to-day of her account (Prudence, who already serves as a talent agent for Tina, Titan of Trickery and Wulf Den Life). Tessa gets 5 BP for every sponsored post she creates (E-Thot).

The Sword is Mightier...

• Species: Sea Elf - Ears, hair and skin tone changes, gills, air tolerance issues, webbed fingers and toes, reverie, increased revulsion towards clothing. Sea Elf is in a bunch of sourcebooks (Sea Elf).
• Class: Bard (Swords) - Swords bard is also in Xanathar's (Bard - Swords)
• Background: A Family Reunion – Tessa is the Host’s sister, but she only remembers the life the Host has rejected. Tessa will be given a collection of memories of growing up as the Host’s sister here in this world. As she becomes more accepting of her new family situation, her old human life will fade (The Host’s Sister).

Andromeda

**** of Will

• Species: Warforged (Magical Robot-Girl) - skin material changes, decreased skin sensitivity, emotionally programmable. Think less clanking robot, more if Data from Star Trek: Next Generation was a sexy lady. Warforged is in the Eberron book (Warforged).
• Class: Wizard (War Mage) - War Mage is in Xanathar's. Will be bumping the power surge damage up at regular intervals, as it scales badly for how infrequently it can be triggered (Wizard - War Mage).
• Background: Integrated Pleasure Circuits – As a tournament grinder, Andromeda is all about being efficient with her time and her prize money. So, now that she is going to be a magical robot wizard, how can she best utilize her features? Andromeda can now scribe spells onto her body as if she is a spellbook and can do so while in stand-by mode. The more spells she has scribed on her person, the more sensitive her skin becomes (Tournament Grinder).

Time Walk

• Species: Fairy - size change (massive proportional shrinkage), wings, increased playfulness (both sexual and non-sexual). Fairy is in a book I don't own (Fairy).
• Class: Wizard (Chronomancer) - Chronomancer is in the Wildmount book (Wizard - Chronomancer)
• Background: A Magical Evening – The theme of Mona’s senior prom was “A Midsummer’s Night Dream.” Having your prom date only a foot or so tall is super inconvenient. Andromeda can innately control her size at will from dusk to midnight. Of course, her clothes won’t change size with her (Prom Date).

Demonic Tutor

• Species: Aquatic Chimera Girl - This one is going to be built around the Simic Hybrid from the Ravnica book. Not sure what features I would be grabbing and how I will be modifying it. So, weird amalgamation of undersea creatures. If this one wins, I'll give the species a more official name...
• Class: Witch (Fathomless) - This is a warlock subclass. It's found in Tasha's (Witch - Fathomless).
• Background: Octopussy – Leylines has a bunch of creature types and sea creatures are seen a lot in Blue and Black. Her witchy patron is going to give her a tentacle friend to manifest a few times a day. So, Andromeda will provide a comfy, cozy home for her new friend. In her womb (Blue Mage).

Craig

"The Standard Package" will fix Craig's bum knee and beer gut. Also, so I don't have to write it three times, I use Berserker instead of Barbarian when referring to Craig's class options as barbarian feels less descriptive. Finally, Tempestt the Storm Dragon is an actual product from the sex toy manufacturer Bad Dragon. I'm not providing a link (unsure how the system would take me linking to a dildo store page), but you can look it up yourself if you want to see the shape and dimensions of an extra large Tempestt dildo.

The Lineman

• Species: Blue Zemeitsa (Dragon-guy) - scales, teeth, horns, wings, invertible penis, reptile cloaca like slit, hoarding mentality. Mechanically, using the chromatic blue dragonborn from Fizban's (Zemeitsa)
• Class: Berserker (Dragon) - going to adapt the Ascendent Dragon monk subclass from Fizban’s into a barbarian subclass (Berserker - Dragon)
• Background: From Live Wire to Power Conduit – Zemeitsa, like all dragonkin, have much smaller male genitalia proportionally than humans; the joys of male creatures with hemipenes, right? Since we would normally be shrinking Craig’s only good feature to transform him, let’s go fantasy unrealistic. Craig’s cock is transformed to match the size and shape of an extra large Tempestt the Storm Dragon dildo from Bad Dragon, with built in electrical vibrations. The cock is still completely functional as a copulation organ and will invert into Craig’s body when not in use; he will have a separate organ for urination (Lineman).

The Canadian

• Species: Goliath - a foot of height growth, slight muscle expansion, cock growth (moderate), increased self-confidence. Goliath is found in a bunch of different sourcebooks (Goliath).
• Class: Berserker (Tundra Storm) - Found in Xanathar's as Path of the Storm Herald. Craig will be **** to take the Tundra option each time the choice needs to be made (Berserker - Tundra Storm)
• Background: Size Queen Trainer – Mona likes the idea of being a size queen, but is super scared of it in practice. When having sexual contact with Mona, Craig’s cock will shrink down such that it will only stretch Mona comfortably full. When Mona can successfully take the size to the base, the shrinking effect will be reduced. When Mona can take Craig at his normal size, his cock will permanently gain size (Big Canadian Cock).

The Asshole

• Species: Gnoll (Hyena-guy) - fuzzy all over, ears, muzzle, paws, increased appetites. Gnolls are found in several different sourcebooks (Gnoll).
• Class: Berserker (Zealot) - Found in Xanathar's (Berserker - Zealot)
• Background: Empathy Training – Craig is a giant asshole, not caring about the enjoyment his partner experiences when they have sex. Now, he’ll have to. Craig can no longer cum unless his sexual partner cums first. As a side effect, he can no longer cum from masturbating, as he would have no sexual partner when self-pleasing (Selfish).
