Chapter 3 by moonblack moonblack

Who do I pick as my first target?

My roommate

Author Note: This chapter turned a bit on the short side, while the next two are a bit longer. I end chapters when I reach a spot that feels like a good ending point.


It's not really a choice. I need someone close to me so that I can observe the results of my tests, and currently there is only one such person. Alright, Lisa it is.

I tap on the Add Target button, then choose Lisa from the list. I get asked for confirmation and select Yes. Once done I am shown Lisa's profile:
Name: Lisa
Surname: Miller
Gender: Female
Age: 25
Relation: Roommate
Level: 1 (0 / 10 xp)
Class: None
Perks : None
Perk Points: 0
Add Quest

Nearly identical to my own, no surprise there. The only differences are the Relation entry and the Add Quest button at the bottom. I tap it and the app asks me for the quest objective. Hmm, what should I make Lisa do?

I think about it and quickly get an idea. Normally Lisa goes to sleep quite late, supposedly due to reading. But based on the sounds I sometimes hear coming out of her room, she is either watching porn or masturbating. Or both at the same time, most likely. It's... embarrassing to think about and my face heats up, making me glad I am doing this while alone.

Anyway. The sounds coming from Lisa's room can be quite distracting. So I am going to do something about them. I type "Go to sleep early", then press Conform when I asked if I really want this to be Lisa's quest objective. I am presented with the finalized quest:
Quest Created!
Quest Target: Lisa Miller
Quest objective: Go to sleep early
Quest reward: +5 xp

Following that I get several notifications in a row:
New Beginnings: Added a target for the first time. Reward: +5 xp

First Achievement: You earned your first achievement. Achievements tab unlocked

First Quest: You created your first quest. Reward: +5 xp

Level Up! +1 Perk point

One Small Step...: Leveled up for the first time. Reward: +1 Perk point

New quest created. Earned 1 xp

My first level up! Awesome! Too bad the future ones likely won't be as easy... and the measly standard reward for creating a quest is disappointing. Is it because the quest has only one basic objective? If so, then it will be important to get to the more advanced stuff.

I check to see if I can give Lisa a second quest, and discover that I can't. I need to wait eight hours before I can give her another quest, plus I am limited to one active quest per target. There must be perks that decrease the wait time and increase the max number of active quests per target...

Speaking of Perk Points, I now have two. That means I can buy some more perks... or I could save them for later, to buy something more expensive. But I have no idea how often I will be able to level up, and if I will get a perk point for every level up... decisions, decisions...

What do I do with my new perk points?
