Week One Wrap-Up, Part 3: Transformation Options I

Tyalangan

Tyalangan strikes a pose and begins another spiel, “Now for the audience’s favorite part of the season: transformations. A few notes before we begin. One, I know many Hosts bases the severity of transformations on challenge placement, but I generally do not; an exception is made for those who do not qualify for the challenge. Two, upon my discretion, I can treat any transformations within 1.5% of the top poll winner as a tie without using a veto. Speaking of vetoes, I am up to 2 vetoes this round. Finally, I am going to do the expected ‘pause reality here while the audience votes’ temporal displacement thing. We’ll start with our beginning contestants, in reverse challenge placement order. So, Craig, come on up.”

Craig

Craig warily trudges towards the blue dyke. Mona is giving him the stink-eye. It feels quite odd that the dyke is more open to Craig than the chubby Asian bitch. When he hits the spot, the dyke merely asks, “Ready?”

“As I am going to be,” he answers through gritted teeth.

“Very well. My bonny bunny?”

The dumb blonde bimbo dyke updates her illusion. Craig growls at the sight:

A Knotty Situation – Mona made this request, might as well put it as an option. Despite it being inaccurate for gnolls, Craig gains a knot to his cock. Since this is supposed to be a punishment, the knot will swell and cause pain if Craig hasn’t cum in the last 24 hours. Have fun (Gnoll – Punishment)!

Zealous Supervision – The path of the zealot is one of virtuous devotion to a deity. Craig has been anything but virtuous. Let’s fix that. Craig is now possessed by the ghost of an acolyte of Tempus, banished from Warrior’s Rest, who seeks redemption for cowardice. This ghost can always speak to Craig in his mind and will take over Craig’s body for up to an hour every time he does something that Tempus would disapprove of. Will this teach Craig a lesson (Berserker – Punishment)?

Big Controllable Cock – Craig is no longer in control of his cock, in a literal sense. Anyone in the harem that is ranked higher than him can issue commands that his cock will automatically obey. These orders will remain until canceled by another order. Orders will not damage his cock, so he can be ordered to have an erection lasting longer than 4 hours with no consequences. The higher ranked commander overrides contradictory orders; Mona’s commands override any others. This control affects every aspect of him: size, shape, hardness, sensation, et cetera. Enjoy (Big Canadian Cock – Punishment)!

Alms! Alms For the Poor! – Craig can no longer possess or earn BP (or, should he survive as a person at the end of the game, money). His current BP and monetary assets are transferred to Mona. Any BP or money he would have earned will be given to Mona instead. He is now entirely dependent on the charity of others. Will this make him less selfish (Selfish – Punishment)?

The fuck? Freak cock, a fucking ghost, lose access to my cock, or can’t have money? How are any of these even remotely fair? Fuck this fucking dyke bitch whore!

The dyke asks, “Any preferences, Craig?”

“I can’t believe I’m saying this, but the fuckin’ furry knot one. It seems the least terrible?”

The chubby Asian bitch blurts out before prompted, “Audience, I really want the Big Controllable Cock. Horny me likes the idea of controlling Craig’s cock with words instead of a cage, but I can justify my pick in a more Mistress appropriate way. One, I could merely order Craig to have a knot when I want, so I’d get the benefit of that one with this one. Two, I don’t know enough about this Tempus guy to really support the whole ghost thing. And three, I don’t want to support Craig mooching off of me forever.”

The dyke smiles, “Pretty well reasoned. Tempus is a god of battle and a firm believer in honorable combat, so you know.”

Mona thinks on that. She nods, “That one would be okay, maybe? A ghost supervising Craig might be a good thing?”

“You not even gonna take my wishes into account?”

Mona’s gaze is one of smoldering rage. “Did you take my wishes into account last week, Craig?”

Craig grumbles as he returns to his spot. Fuckin’ dykes and bitches, ruining my life. I need a better solution; I can’t rely on the others. And I certainly can’t rely on those fuckin’ bitches on other sets.

The blue dyke declares, “Now that we got through our punishment options for Craig, the other original contestants’ lists of transformations are generally following a pattern: a pure boon without any Harem Hotel perversions, a background knowledge dump with a little Hotel flavor added in, and a more traditional transformation. Next up, Tegan.”

Tegan

The angry archer, still wrapped up in the blanket from the recovery room, stomps over to the blue freak. She snarls, “What new perversion are you forcing on me now?”

“Let’s take a look. Tina?”

The cow-tittied bunny slut updates the illusion to display Tegan’s options:

How Tegan Gets Her Tails Back – Because Tegan is a Ranger (which only gets to Level 5 spells), she will find it impossible to get to all 9 tails a proper kitsune should have. Let’s fix that glaring error. Tegan will no longer be allowed to multi-class into a non-caster class (Barbarian, Fighter, Monk, Rogue) or the pact-caster class (Warlock). At the levels where a warlock normally unlocks / improves the Mystic Arcanum feature, Tegan can select a spell off of the Druid list to cast for free once per day (a sixth level spell at Level 11, a seventh level spell at Level 13, an eighth level spell at Level 15, and a ninth level spell at Level 17). For each of these milestones, she will gain an additional tail (Kitsune).

I Was a Highway(wo)man – Tegan’s Ranger archetype is, of course, based on Robin Hood. Let’s get Tegan some skills to make her blend in with the Merry Men better. Tegan gains the following proficiencies: Deception, Stealth, Thieves’ Tools, and Daggers. She will find herself now really enjoying the acts of hiding and watching others perform erotic acts (Ranger).

Breast Deflation – Those giant tits make Tegan sad; let’s give her a way to make her feel better. Tegan can now make a Persuasion skill check to suppress any breast expansion transformation another harem member has (including members of other harems, Mistresses excluded). Upon a successful check, this suppression occurs, lasting 24 hours. She can only target a particular harem member once per round (or fortnight for graduated harem members). For every successful suppression, Tegan gains one tenth of a cup size so long as the suppression is active. That will help, right (The Other BE)?

This time, Tegan blurts out an answer before being asked, “The third one! I want that third one sooooo bad!”

“Duly noted, Tegan. Mona, what do you think?”

“Sorry, Tegan, but I like your big boobies, so I don’t want the third one for you. More tails would be nice, but the good stuff is soooo far away. Unless you can tell me how it will pay off, Tyalangan, I suppose I want number 2?”

“The tails transformation has a couple of side effects when interacting with Shar’s gift this morning. One, it ensures that Tegan can’t just multi-class to avoid gaining more SP and, thus, more cup size boosts. Two, the extra SP from the extra tails results in another cup at Level 17.”

Tegan glares at the blue-skinned freak. The Host shrugs, “I offered that in the spirit of full disclosure.”

“I DEMAND the Breast Deflation one, audience.”

“I’m okay with either of the other two!” Mona chirps.

Tegan glares at her fiancée, then stomps back to her spot.

“Next up,” the freak declares, “we have Gaia.”

Gaia

Gaia bounds up to the spot and bounces in place. She sees Mona watching her breasts. Now that she’s the smallest in the harem, outside of the cat and the guys, she really appreciates when Mona lusts after her. It’s a bit of an ego boost that these small things can still attract Mona’s attention.

“Ready for what you got for me!”

“Very well. Tina?”

The illusion updates and Gaia reads them:

The Great Stat Unification – Gaia’s statistics change based on the archetype of animal she shifts into. This is a giant pain for everyone involved, so let’s fix that. Now, Gaia’s stats will be consistent, getting the highest modifier for each stat from her four archetypes (Shifter).

Conservationist – Gaia has started to consider not burning the world down, instead building up nature. Let’s give her the tools to do that. Gaia gains the following proficiencies: Herbalism Kit, History, Medicine, and Poisoner’s Kit. In addition, she can use her Herbalism kit to safely extract aphrodisiacs from appropriate plants with successful skill checks. You know, for fun (Druid).

The Shar Special – I mean, it’s basically a rule that you have to include this one at some point, right? What is more nurturing than a mother breastfeeding a child? Gaia’s breasts triple in size and she begins to lactate. That will surely stop vampire-based complaints about a lack of BE on the intranetwork communication channels (Nurturer).

“Ooooh, bigger boobies or Conservationist, please.”

Mona chirps, “I agree!”

Caoimhe interrupts, “Don’t dismiss that first one, ladies. I think we lucked out on the animal roll this time, but we may not next time. Making sure Gaia’s stats don’t change would be quite helpful.”

Gaia argues, “But... bigger boobies? Or helping nature?” Mona nods in agreement. Caoimhe sighs. Gaia bounces back to her position in line with the others.

Tyalangan merely states, “Next up, Tessa.”

Tessa

Tessa approaches her sister. She can see that the Host is hurting a little. “[You okay, Tanta?]”

“[I will be, in time. I know Winter is an adult and can make adult decisions, but my child...]”

“[I’ll watch out for Winter, sis. Winter will be okay. Kevin is a good kid.]”

Tyalangan snorts, putting on a bit of a smile. “[I know. I know. You ready?]”

Tina updates her illusion and the options are displayed:

A Lesser Prodigy – Sea elves are traditionally the least magically inclined species of elves. So, Tessa is a rarity. Let’s give her some flavorful spells to celebrate. Tessa now knows the Shape Water cantrip. When she reaches 3rd level, she learns the spell Create or Destroy Water. When she reaches 5th level, she learns the spell Tidal Wave. She can cast these spells once per long rest for free (Sea Elf).

Oral Orator – Tessa is not the traditional bard, more interesting in reciting poetry than playing songs and slaying pussy. Let’s boost her bardic skills. Tessa gains the following proficiencies: Calligrapher’s Supplies, Disguise Kit, History, and Persuasion. In addition, she will find herself much more skilled providing oral sex (Bard).

Flourishing Maneuvers – Tyalangan has a transformation that grants her Battle Master maneuvers. Well, shouldn’t her (a few minutes) younger sister get the same treatment? Whenever Tessa gains a level that grants one or more bardic subclass features, she gains one Battle Master maneuver of her choice, modified to work like one of her flourishes. This transformation will immediately grant a maneuver for the first such level she has gained. In addition, Tessa will also get an adapted version of one transformation of Mona’s choice from a curated selection of Tyalangan’s transformation list. We need her to match her sister better (The Host’s Sister).

Oh, these are not so bad, assuming, of course, that the “curated selection of Tyalangan’s transformation list” doesn’t have any poison pills to tempt Mona. I doubt my sister would intentionally put something in there, but she may not see how something she’s had to live with for a hundred years may be bothersome...

“Any preferences, Tessa?”

“I want to know about what options Mona would get to pick from for that last transformation. Otherwise, any of those options are fine.”

“Mona?”

“So, that last one is Tessa getting both a cool power-up AND a sexy transformation from your list? That one!”

Tessa arches an eyebrow at Mona. The gamer girl squirms a little, then notes, “But the guaranteed oral sex boost from Oral Orator would be nice, too?”

“If you want the last one, that’s fine. Just choose carefully if it wins,” Tessa walks over to the others and gives Winter’s shoulder a supportive squeeze.

“Next up, Andromeda.”

Andromeda

Andromeda walks over, the cute chibi owl familiar still on her shoulder. Both android and owl stare at Tyalangan.

“Shall we take a look?”

Andromeda nods, so Tina updates the display:

Super Fighting Robot – What kind of combat robot doesn’t have an arm cannon? Let’s fix that. Andromeda gains an arm cannon that extends and retracts from her forearm. The cannon can be used as an arcane focus. The power of the cannon will increase as Andromeda increases in tier and better attunes to it (Warforged).

Talk to Me Nerdy – Andromeda keeps digging for information. Let’s help her do better at it. Andromeda gains the following proficiencies: Calligrapher’s Supplies, History, Nature, and Religion. In addition, she now finds sharing trivia as an erotic act (Wizard).

Storm Crow! – Everyone knows that the most powerful card in Leylines is the legendary Storm Crow. Now Andromeda can harness this incredible power as a Find Familiar option. The Storm Crow is based on a Raven, but has the Flyby feature and can use it’s action to cast Shocking Grasp at will and Witch Bolt once per long rest; these spells can be cast despite the usual ban against familiars taking attack actions, using the Storm Crow’s wisdom modifier to cast these spells. The Storm Crow is a sneaky little critter, dropping voyeur videos about Andromeda to random people when Andromeda is in standby mode (Tournament Grinder).

While Khol the familiar gives the third option some stink-eye, Andromeda chuckles a little at it. She answers, “The arm cannon is clearly the superior option. While a familiar with access to spells would be okay, I am not sure if that is worth having a familiar with extracurricular activities like that. The less said about turning trivia into erotica, the better.”

Mona asks, “Is Storm Crow a good card?”

“A 1/2 flier for 2 leylines.”

“Okay, but is that good?”

“Not really. Most modern fliers with that power, toughness, and cost will give an additional benefit. It can be pitched to **** of Will?”

“I still kind of want to see how a crow makes voyeur porn.”

Both android and owl familiar cover their faces. Mona asks, “What? It could be interesting!”

Andromeda walks back to the others, not dignifying that with a response.

“Next up, Caoimhe”

Caoimhe

Caoimhe approaches the mark, after getting out of Winter’s grip. She is happy her sub is part of the harem now. Tyalangan still looks conflicted about it.

“Ma’am?”

A brief mental warning rings out in Caoimhe’s head, “If you hurt my child...”

Caoimhe replies in her head, “...you will torment me for a thousand years. I know. I believe you. I have no intention of hurting my cute little sub. Can we move on?”

After a brief nod, Tyalangan speaks aloud, “Tina?”

The illusion updates and Caoimhe seems to have extra options:

Give ‘em the Horns! – 3 + strength modifier damage for his horns is not a lot, is it? Now, when Kevin makes a Goring Rush action on his turn, his horns attack is multiplied by his tier level on a critical hit, in addition to it’s other effects (Hu-Cow).

Shoulda Been a Cowboy! – Shoulda learned to rope and ride! Let’s get Kevin some skills to be a better cowboy (literally). Kevin gains the following proficiencies: Animal Handling (Expertise on Riding Horses), Athletics, and Intimidation. He will find that bois riding him is much more pleasurable (Paladin).

Liquid Stitches – Kevin wants to be a doctor, let’s help him be able to do so in an emergency. Both Kevin and Caoimhe gains +1 Wisdom and proficiency in Medicine checks. Kevin’s milk can be used as an antiseptic and his cum can be used to seal wounds shut like stitches upon a successful Medicine check (Med Student).

Silk and Spiders – Caoimhe is more than a little Underdark in her sexual tastes, but she doesn’t exactly have the skills to go with it. Let’s fix that. Caoimhe gains +1 Dexterity and proficiency in Sleight of Hand. Whenever a boi needs to be tied up, Caoimhe will find a spidersilk rope of sufficient length nearby. Of course, her knots will combine pleasure and pain for the tussed up victim (Drow).

The Crescent Blade – What’s a quest without some overpowered magic item, eh? Caoimhe is granted the use of The Crescent Blade (a holy relic of Eilistraee) from a dimension that has no need of it anymore. The power of the blade will increase as Caoimhe increases in tier and better attunes to it (Cleric).

Hmm, a couple options for Kevin, a couple options for me, and an odd option for us both? Caoimhe consults with herself. “We have a question. This crescent blade, would Kevin have access to it too?”

“He would, but it counts as a broadsword. You as Caoimhe will be granted proficiency in broadswords if that transformation wins, but he’d have to train with them before it would be effective with it.”

Caoimhe nods. “Understood. Then I would prefer Silk and Spiders. Kevin would prefer either The Crescent Blade or Shoulda Been a Cowboy. We would both be fine with Liquid Stitches, but mostly for the stat boost. I doubt we’d actually use the milk or cum effects. The horns one is meh.”

“Mona?”

“Horny me wants Silk and Spiders. I wanna see Winter tied up! Responsible Mistress me wants The Crescent Blade. That seems to be the most powerful effect.”

Mona ignores the look Tyalangan gives her. She’s going to need some time to adjust to the idea of Winter being in Mona’s harem, huh? Caoimhe quietly offers a brief prayer to Eilistraee, just loud enough for the Host to hear. The sea elf shifts her focus to the sometimes drow and nods again. She’s not exactly smiling, but she nods. Caoimhe returns to her spot.

“Next up, we have our new contestants. Each of our new contestants will be getting 2 transformation votes. The first, like what we did with our original contestants, will set the background transformation path. Generally, the other is a foursome of 2 species transformations and 2 class transformations to pick from. We will start with the nekomata. Come on up.”
