Character Creation - Perk

{if@ Teacher = 1
}

Beth taught Mathematics at a local high school. {if History = 2
}It was a wonder she was able to get enough of an education and her teaching certificate considering all the time she spent on her back...and knees...and lifted off the ground....{else
}She had a deep love of education.{endif
}
Beth was {if History = 2
}obviously {endif
}a favorite teacher among the boys in her classes, {if Shame > 50
}but she did her best not to think about why. There was a lot of positive attention from the male teachers, staff and of course Principal Schiff{if History = 0
}, which was a new experience for Beth. {elseif History = 2
}, which didn't surprise Beth at all.
{else
}.{endif
}{else
}and while she would certainly never do anything with a student, she couldn't help but enjoy the positive attention. Besides, the boys weren't the only ones at the school who paid attention to her{if History <2
}.{else
}, there was always Mr. Schiff, the principal, and Mr. Jeffries, the gym teacher with the nice arms, Mr. Jacobs, Officer Williams, Dale the janitor.....{endif
}{endif
}
{elseif Secretary = 1
}
{if History = 2
}It was no surprise that after spending most of her time at college doing the walk of shame, Beth {else
}Beth had majored in communications in college, and yet it seemed that she {endif
}had graduated without a lot of marketable job skills. Luckily, she was a naturally adept typist, and had a knack for organization.
She got a job working as a secretary at the finance firm that employed Brian, and they had met at a work party. She worked for one of the partners, Jeremy. Since she didn't work directly with Brian, there was no issue{if History = 0
}.{else
}, except for nearly getting caught a few times fooling around at the office.{endif
}
Working at the same firm as Brian had its {if Shame <40
}disadvantages. His ability to pop in on her any time could present a problem someday. {elseif Shame < 61
}advantages and disadvantages. It was nice to have him nearby in case she wanted to see him. However, she worried that his ability to pop in on her any time could present a problem someday. {else
}advantages. It was nice to have him nearby in case she wanted to see him. {endif
}{elseif Bartender = 1
}{if History = 0
}
College hadn't really been a good fit for Beth. She had found a job as a bartender at a nice gastropub her freshman year, and had taken to it quite well, eventually dropping out. No sense in paying student loans for something that wasn't working. The Pub was a frequent haunt of the professional set in the area, and Brian had been a regular since just after she had started. {if Shame < 50
}He was cute and successful, so when he had asked her out, she had had no trouble saying yes. {if Shame <30
}She had even harbored a secret fantasy that he would someday make her his trophy wife. {endif
}{else
}His bold move of asking her out had been a surprise; it certainly hadn't been the first time a patron had done so, but he had seemed more shy, not like the other loud, chauvinistic finance dudes he came in with. {endif
}{else
}
{if History = 1
}Although she was by no means an alcoholic, {endif
}Beth had a long and beautiful relationship with booze. This, combined with her natural assets led her to a job as a bartender at a local bikini bar. Bottoms Up. Beth loved the attention, and the tips that came with it were quite nice. Brian and his coworkers had been regulars for a while before he had screwed up his courage enough to ask her out. Occasionally, Brian hinted that he assumed Beth would quit at some point, or at least tend bar somewhere a little less wild {if Shame > 50
}, but the tips were so good. {else
}, but Beth wasn't so sure she would want to give up the ego boost and satisfaction she got from being ogled three to four nights a week. {if Shame < 30
} Having an easy excuse to come home late was also a perk.{endif
}{endif
}{endif
}{elseif Masseuse = 1
}

Beth had always had a gift for making people feel good with her hands. When {if History = 2
}college became a never-ending string of fucks, three-ways, and gangbangs{else
}it became clear that college wasn't for her{endif
}, she had decided to drop out and get her license as a massage therapist. She had a steady gig at a local spa and also did some freelance work for wealthy clients. In fact, that was how she had met Brian, after she had taken a corporate gig contracted by Brian's company as a holiday bonus.
Beth found massage to be sensually satisfying{if Shame > 70
}, even though she worried {if History = 2
}that the sensuality might become a gateway into falling back into her old ways. {else
}sometimes about how aroused she got when the client was attractive. {endif
}{elseif Shame >30
}, even if working half naked bodies, and sometimes more than half naked, {if@ History = 2
}reminded her fondly of wilder days. {else
}got her hot and bothered more often then not. {endif
}{else
} and fun. {endif
}{else
}

{if History = 2
}Beth's adventurous nature and killer body had led quite naturally to dancing. She had needed no encouragement{else
}Beth had started dancing in clubs after a little coaxing{endif
} from her roommate, a dancer herself. {if History = 2
}Beth had loved the attention and money so much that by the end of junior year, she had dropped out and started dancing exclusively. {else
}Once they had started, Beth had found herself quite addicted to the money and the attention. She had dropped out of college after junior year to dance exclusively. {endif
}She had actually met Brian as a patron; Brian's boss had taken all the men in the office out to her club to celebrate some deal.
Brian's obvious discomfort and anxiety in the club had immediately drawn her to him, and she had spent the whole night talking with him and eventually got him comfortable enough to receive a lap dance from her. Brian had been in love with her from that night, and despite kind of hating strip clubs, he had come back many times just to see her.
Regular clients were a common theme in dancing, but Brian had been different. {if Shame < 30
}So different, that against all her normal instincts, Beth had accepted his offer to go out on a date. {else
}His unrelenting sweetness and charm had captivated her enough that she had agreed to go out with him before too long. {endif
}The rest was history. {if Shame <30
}Amusingly, Brian seemed to think she should quit dancing now that they were engaged. Why? {else
}Unfortunately, Brian had hinted many times that he wanted her to quit dancing, now that they were engaged. Beth was conflicted: she didn't want him to be unhappy with what she did, but she didn't really want to quit. She loved what she did. {endif
