Hello there! I'm honestly a bit nervous about posting this up here, since I've actually been following Fenoxo's work from way back in the FA UTG days. Erotic-fiction-wise, to me it's a bit like asking if my finger-painting can also hang in the Louvre. Nonetheless, since I finally am about to hit the first erotic portion of my little tale I figure it is time to swallow the nerves and make this post. So, without further ado...
I've created an experiment in collaborative erotic fiction - Perverse Incentives. It is somewhere between a table-top role-playing game and "choose your own adventure" story, mechanics-wise. I give my readers full leeway to direct the primary protagonist's actions, using a pen-and-paper mechanics system to determine the results of whatever is chosen by the masses... but then I write a chapter detailing his attempts to bring about those suggestions. In that way I'm attempting to strike a balance between content and freedom to choose. (This is also why I'm posting it in the RP section, since I've been told it's more like a "quest" RP than a true game.)
The story is intentionally modeled as something loosely-resembling a "Corruption of Champions" prequel. It takes place in a fantasy multiverse packed with all the traditional flavors found in your average RPG sourcebook, but then I've thrown in Devon - the Player Character and a recently-unbound imp originating from the Plane of Perversion. I'm not at all surprised that I'm only at Chapter Three and we're already about to start attempting to transform people. To be perfectly honest, I'd call that success right there!
Here's the thing though - having made this game with all the Fenoxo and Xadera and Alder influences, I don't want to ignore the fact that they have influenced me. Honestly, thank you all for providing a truly amazing level of fetish content in your games. It is incredible how you've managed to do all that and still maintain compelling narratives. As such, I'd feel ashamed to simply hide the game away from here as if I was hoping they didn't see it (even though I hardly consider it comparable to their level...). On the other hand I also don't want to just announce that it exists and leave. Fenoxo, Xadera, Alder, and all the other contributors to these games have done a lot to make it possible for me to even try this experimental game, after all!
So what I've decided on at last is this - the first major erotic scene is coming up, and due to some communications SNAFUs nobody told me what fetishes they wanted to see while they were telling me they wanted to dive into the dark corners of ladies' minds and try to persuade them towards perversion. This needs to be resolved, and as such I've set up a poll to determine what fetishes will be immediately dealt with (with, presumably, more to come later). I'm also posting that poll here. Since the community here is really the backbone of this sort of gaming, I want them to have the option to be involved if they so desire. It is really the least I can do for having spent such a long time lurking around the fringes of it.
Actually, speaking of which - since I have to assume that everyone here has relatively significant experience with games falling within this realm, if anyone has any thoughts or suggestions to offer I am all ears. This is my first attempt at anything even remotely resembling this, and as such any advice is 100% welcome. Thank you for your time and attention!
