Thread Mechanics

This is a description of how this thread will work. It's just about the mechanics, so if you don't care about it, you can pass. It shouldn't affect your enjoyment of the story.

During this story Xander will be faced with a total of 9 training scenarios with 3 possible options. Which option he picks is up to the users to vote on.

There are a total of 15 fetishes/themes that these choices will correspond to. 4 of the fetishes have 3 levels, 4 have 2, and 7 are just true/false. For the ones with levels it will get more intense as levels are taken.

For example: one of the 3 level fetishes is lesbian. At level 1 it would be kissing, at level 2 it would add in fingering, at level 3 it be pussy eating, tribbing, and strapons.

No training option is good or bad, they are all just for themes and they are all sexual. Readers may be able to derive clues from the wording about what the actual impact will be.

After each training selection there will be two scenes: a training scenario of that type, and then the next scene in the plot. We're going to begin at Dead Man's Party in season 3.

Faith and Buffy will be the main characters (Faith will show up after the first "turn"). There are a total of 17 (edit: this got raised to 24 possibilities) other characters who may appear as sex partners as well (otherwise, characters will remain just in their normal plot roles). Whether another character shows up or not is based which fetishes are taken, it's more a shot in the dark than something readers could plan toward.

Edit: Focusing on a variety of choices will lead to more girls appearing, but keeping on a few consistent choices will lead to stronger relations with Buffy/Faith.

I have not yet made up my mind what and/or how the choices may impact the plot. This story just might be 'sexy things going on during season 3'.

There are a few other surprises that I have planned that I will get to when we git those points in the story.

Suggestions and comments about the story design are still very much welcome.
