Becoming Negana

Tearing the bag open, Emily received her first real glimpse of her character. The costume was a pair of tall black leather boots, a black bikini decorated with silver snakes, a short skirt made of strips of black studded leather, and a long black cloak. Thank goodness for the cloak, Emily thought to herself. Without that she would feel really quite exposed! It was a very cool costume, but not exactly modest. Emily checked with Hen whether she could wear her own underwear under the bikini and was told only her knickers; this is an immersive medieval fantasy experience and modern items like bras would spoil the aesthetic. Hen went back to texting on her phone while Emily removed her bra. Her panties were white cotton with a pink heart on the front. Definitely not medieval fantasy, but nobody would see them under all the black leather, she decided.

She slipped into the bikini, pleased with the fit. They had obviously gone to some trouble with this costume: the boots were very comfortable indeed, and looking in the mirror Emily thought she looked every bit the evil sorceress! The boots ended in a peak half way up her thighs and she ran her fingers over the embossed snakes around the top of the leather. This was good stuff! The skirt came close to the tip of the boots revealing just a couple of inches of her thighs. It was almost a shame to wrap the long black cape around herself, hiding this awesome costume. Emily pulled the hood over her blonde hair and looked at her reflection. Scary! But sexy too!

But there was more. Hen had her remove the cloak, and fitted a black metal breastplate over the bikini top. Well, it was plastic, but Emily would never have guessed. It had another of the silver snakes in the centre and featured two large black pointy breasts, complete with silver nipples! The plastic/metal breasts were a bit bigger than Emily’s own boobs, and the outfit was completed by two large studded shoulder plates. With the cloak back on she cut quite a formidable figure.

Hen then applied make up, and she was clearly very talented. Emily saw her own transformation into a beautiful but very scary white mask with heavy black eyeshadow forming a solid strip across her face, black lips curled down at the edges into a grimace, and dark, hollow cheeks making her look a little skull-like. Her hair was pulled back into a bun and sprayed black over the silky blonde locks. ‘Don’t worry, this will wash out,’ Hen told her. Then the final piece: a black crown made to look like snakes writhing around Emily’s head with shiny white jewels for eyes. This was fun!

Walking out of the tent a couple of people bowed and addressed her as ‘Queen Negana.’ This made Emily feel powerful and important. One of the armoured guards clunked over from the fence. ‘Are you the blonde girl who came in a while ago? You look fucking amazing!’ Emily swelled with pride. She had never experienced anything like this, she could really feel herself getting into it! ‘Can I have a photo with you?’ The guard produced a phone from somewhere in his armour and stood next to Emily to take a selfie with the tall sorceress queen. This must be how celebrities get treated, she thought to herself. ‘You look stunning, Queen Negana,’ he fawned. ‘I hope I get to see a lot more of you later on in your storyline.’ He winked at Emily and returned to his post looking at his phone.

Hen had told Emily to hang out and help herself to refreshments until her Games Master, Ted arrived to brief her. Ted was going to be looking after Emily as her storyline progressed and would give her some magic spells and special powers! She didn’t know how long it would be until Ted collected her, however, and she quite liked the idea of exploring this new world. She was Negana, Queen of the Saviours, after all, and nobody was going to stop her.
