I've always been ironically curious about doing a more-or-less sex-free run in these games. While effectively impossible, the idea stuck with me for some time. After replaying Champions, I wondered how my character could fit into the environment (as anyone who's had an OC can agree).
In Champions, there is a way to eventually 'train' the character to Meditate instead of Masturbate, to prevent corruption from spreading. There is a similar effect in Eden, where the character can use Meditate, instead of Masturbate or sex with their companion. Obviously, since the equivalent of 'Corruption' in Trials is the Libido stat, this leaves room for a more free-spirited character to be the 'anti-Libido' MacGuffin.
Here's what I put forth - I would like to write a character and a scene, for a little slice in the corner of Mhen'ga. This area would only be able to be accessed after a certain event - i.e. the collection of the probe on Myrellion or some such. The character would introduce themselves to Steele and explain why they (the character) exist, story story plot plot plot. The character's function in the game would be to train Steele to resist lust effects, to lower Steele's libido, and to give Steele the option of 'Meditation' and 'Focus'.
Meditation would be used instead of 'Rest', and would lower lust instead of raising it. Similarly, in combat, Focus could be used instead of Fantasize to lower lust instead of raising it.
As someone who has some writing experience, I am well aware this will be a lot of work, and I would greatly appreciate feedback before I would get started.
Cheers!
