Silent mode

You thought for a moment about Erin drawing too much attention to you. If she was loud and uncontrollable, calling for help or alerting players about you, that could be very troublesome. Then again, there was a simple solution. You opened the menu and went into the settings.

"What are you doing?" Erin gasped as she saw you move into the multiplayer settings. You turned of all communication lines for her avatar. Now you were set. Erin's face turned into a neutral default expression.

"That's better, no way players can chat with you, or you to them, no audio, and no expressions. You are effectively silenced." You told her. She was now truly your prisoner. A thought that made you happy as you walked to a nearby spring

You lifted the helmet off your head and put it aside, as you turned to stare at your reflection the water. Before you was only Erin's blank expression staring back, her purple eyes were all but lifeless, as if she was nothing more than a doll to you.

"Do you like our new look?" You taunted her as you lifted your gloved fingers and caressed your stolen skin. You could hear Erin screaming at you but you paid it no mind. You were enjoying your freedom.

However something did catch your eye, it was you...or rather your original form, the cursed armor that now adorned Erin. It admitted did not look good with your host. Or rather it was too jarring. You glanced at Erin's inventory taking note of what she had. Hmm...the absorbing spell was still there....you wondered.

You glanced around, finding a old run down cottage nearby. Upon walking inside you made your way to the bed room. From the looks of it there was a lot of useless low level junk laying around. You didn't expect much considering this was the tutorial. However you did find what you were looking for by the closet.

A simple white dress.

It wasn't much. It was almost worthless given the game's inflated economy. It was easy to find, offered no buffs or benefits and didn't even look all that appealing to anyone, especially not compared to all sexier alternatives that still gave buffs. It was still good enough for you though as it was still armor.

Holding up the dress, you used the armor spell on it. The next thing you knew you felt a weird tingling sensation and suddenly it stopped. You moved your host in front the mirror and took another look at your self while bringing up the stats window.

"Well, I'll be." You mused as you looked at it. The dresses appearance had been absorbed into your being. Now even though you were a cursed suit of armor, your appearance was now that off a white dress. In other words, Erin looked completely normal.

Well...almost.

The dress was a lot smaller than you thought, or perhaps there was some glitching due to your situation, but Erin's figure had filled the dress out rather nicely, despite it being very conservative. Satisfied you took your staff and made your way out of the cottage. Glancing up the moon you enjoyed the chill of the night air as you decided to head to town eager to test your new guise.
