So, of course, I made my own votes here, seeing as how I'm supposed to be just 'one of the fans' when it comes to this thread. I figured I might as well get the ball rolling in terms of explaining why I voted for what I did.
Those who've followed my projects since the days of Corruption of Champions know that I love dickgirls. Whether it's herm or shemale, full-package or not, there's just something I find irresistible about a girl with something extra up front. And when that girl wants to take over a fundamentally male role, that's even hotter. Personally, I'm most attracted to the
Studette in the guise of the "breederphile ladette"; she's a rough, tough, lusty character who acts more like a stereotypical guy with boobs than like a girl, and so she just loves using her cock first and foremost. Admittedly, I prefer the option to eventually win her heart so that she's willing to be more equitable, but at its core, the appeal is a dickgirl who just doesn't see any disparity between "loving you" and "getting diamond hard at the thought of filling you fulla babies".
In all honesty, I could kind of see Miranda turning into this when her personal quest and ability to unlock breeding with her is written, courtesy of both character development and her baseline character - let's face it, she's a girl who prefers to use her dick first, loves topping, loves the "alpha bitch" position, and has a slight preference towards guys without changing her preference for doing the fucking. Cement yourself as "the one" in her eyes, and I could personally see her developing a fetish for impregnation and having a pregnant partner. But, since she's Alder's character, and he probably doesn't see her that way, I doubt it'd happen.
My idea for a Studette... well, the very first thing to come to mind is inspired by a shemale ram-morph that this artist on FA called Sydak has, named Hilda. Very much a "guy with boobs and killer curves" sort of character - in fact, the first thing to come to mind for her origin is that she was a guy, but he got drunk one evening, bunch of his friends dared him to drink some Estros concentrate, and he woke up the next morning with killer curves to match his killer hangover and, after perhaps boosting his dick back up, he decided he liked his new tits. Rough, tumble and lecherous, she likes to "trap" guys as a dominance thing and has a breeding fetish she's sported since before The Dare. Truth be told, she's... well, not very successful. She's a bit of a Leisure Suit Larry type; thinks she's suave, but really, she stinks at it. You might not necessarily be her only lover, but you'd be the only one to keep coming back to her, and she'd rather quickly grow to appreciate that. I see her relationship as a sort of "best bros forever" type thing, with a lot of pity sex, that ultimately deepens into a "I don't want anyone else; I want to be there for you and our lambs" maturity. Of course, persuading her to take her own turn at being mommy would still need you to max out her Rel, even if she starts getting more obviously into you fairly early on.
The
Embarrassed Breeder is, apparently, the most popular result so far. I don't know why that is for others, but for me, it's that element of character development and the (personally perceived) implication of feminization. This is a more romantic, less dom/sub focused equivalent to the Ex-Rival option, where the hotness is in seeing a guy who whimpers and begs for you not to at first, but then pleads for you to keep him pregnant, where we watch the masculine curves (however much there were some in the first place) melting away into feminine lushness. The only thing better to me than taking a strong, virile-looking morph or monster and making it a lusty breeder, with only their huge, throbbing cock rubbing against their pregnant belly to show what they once were, is if they actually enjoy it and love my character more for helping them to get over their shyness. I love sincere, honest affection and love between characters, rather than just boinking for the sake of it; I won't deny that Kiro Tamahime from TiTS is visually hot, but if I knew I could get her to upgrade me from just "a repeatable fuck" to "the guy I consider my only lover, even if we still fuck others for fun", I'd like her a hell of a lot more.
Fairly obvious how I'd do a character like that, I suppose.
Only thing I can't figure out is what species I'd do it with. Minotaur, stallion-morph, and stag-morph are all interesting for the sheer scale of the transitions, but I do like monstergirls too, so an orc or an ogre could perhaps make an interesting transition from muscles to breeder's curviness.
The appeal of the
Tomgirl, to me, stems from my appreciation for femmebois and my interest in subverting expected cliches. I don't like the idea that all girly-looking males have to be meek, simpering sluts. A boy who looks like a girl, maybe even wants to try being pregnant, but who doesn't let that stop him from being tough, self-assured, confident and even dominant in the bed... that's something you don't see every day in porn, and it's something I find appealing. Far more fun than the standard "girly-boy who bends over and squeals for you to knock him up, you big alpha you," is one who makes you dance to
his tune, who pins you down and teases you to distraction until you're ready to burst, then mounts you and rides you as he makes you his breeder, clearly in charge even as you fill his womb with seed, promising that you're going to be wrapped around his little finger even as he gets too pregnant to move...
Ironically, for all that personal appeal, I really don't know how I'd actually pull it off in FoE. I can't even think of a species that'd go well with it.
Finally, the Ex-Rival is probably the least appealing of the interests to me, and mostly it's a dominance thing; there's just something hot about taking a strong, powerful male and turning them into a knocked up, girlified version of themselves without ever removing the most critical part of what marks their old identity - I actually really prefer not to shrink down dicks on guys when I put them through feminization, in part because of my dickgirl interest, in part because it deepens the contrast by giving such a strong, permanent reminder of what they were and can never be again. Of course, I like the Ex-Rival who doesn't completely submit, who bounces back and becomes strong again, just accepting that his/her taste for cock, love of being swollen with a litter and milky baby-feeders aren't ever going away.
Why didn't I vote for the Stud, seeing as how I voted for the other four? Because, in all honesty, I don't really like male NPCs; LD's broadened my tastes to the more cutesy/femmeboi scale of things, but still, I'd rather have a girl, sans or with dick, over a guy for any sexual options.
