Damn this makes we want a cute and wholesome hellhound waifu like a certain foxy slut wifeMerry Christmas B!
Yes I am aware this is early, but I couldn't resist making the joke
Cautiously, you lift the cover of your bed – and the first thing you see are a pair of huge, golden eyes staring right back at you, turned into crescents from a pair of rising cheeks lifted from one of the biggest smiles you’ve seen from a creature. As soon as you make eye contact, the tip of its snout presses forward, emerging from underneath the cover, and pressing gently against yours. And the purring suddenly gets much louder; loud and intense enough that you feel it reverberate straight through your chest.
“Hi,” the kobold says through its own purring. The pitch of its voice is a bit on the higher side. “Maybe a stupid question, but, were you the one that rescued me from the snow?”
You hesitate before you answer. “Yeah,” you say eventually.
“I love you,” the kobold suddenly blurts, its tail wagging so quickly that it’s shifting the whole bed[atFH||roll] with its motions. There was no filter put into that statement: it was a raw, pure declaration, straight from the heart and bypassing all social cues. You can’t help but believe it. “My name’s Lyric.”
giggling like a lunatic heredom/sub, with, in a rare change, the PC being the dom
*reads*Easter egg
Yes, I'm likely going to be inserting a lot of pronouns by mistake - it's far less natural to say [lyric.hisHer] in my head and then type it out than it is to say his or her. It's something I'm going to need a lot of readers to help me with, ideally. Thank you for keeping an eye out!Variable characters seem like a lot of work, so it's really cool that you're so excited about this one. All those [lyric.mf] tags look like an absolute maze to navigate. I think you missed one on page 9, though.
Any ideas about Combat Lyric, or is that wayyy tbd? I kind of like a recharge power more than a summon, but I haven't thought about it for very long.
Not at the start, but it may be possible to turn Lyric into a herm via alchemy later. Savin wants an alchemical option to turn Lyric into an 8 foot tall draginwaifu, so, why not some other stuff?Would it be possible to make Lyric a futanari/hermaphrodite as a selectable choice?
For lore reasons, Lyric is supposed to be a tropical variation of the kind you're going to find most commonly in the Undermountain, so I wanted to avoid red, brown, and bronze, since that's likely their colours, to match their environment, and green would be closer to the jungles of the tropics that Lyric is native to. Other colours I considered were blue, white, and black, which are pretty unusual colours as far as kobold scales go. It's not too late to change it, of course - I haven't even written an appearance screen yet.I do have a couple suggestions, meme aside.
—Maybe adjust the color palette? Dark green is already occupied by goblins, orcs, trolls... it’d be nice to have a little more variance, especially since you’re going to be setting a precedent with the first kobold. Red and orange are super common depictions, but if you really want to be fun you could just say Kobolds come in multiple colors.
—Alternate opening scenes. Throughout the intro it feels like the Champion is continuously trying to... push Lyric away? Reject him? I dunno. I get that most people would actually be put off by a kobold they just met coming on to them so strongly, but the Champion isn’t most people— they regularly bang people they met five minutes ago. Maybe options for better reactions (like choosing if the champ is thrilled, skeptical, etc.), or at least a more enthusiastic response from Bimbo characters, or maybe even both.

Awesome!Not at the start, but it may be possible to turn Lyric into a herm via alchemy later. Savin wants an alchemical option to turn Lyric into an 8 foot tall dragon waifu, so, why not some other stuff?
This is some Ash and Pikachu friendship xD I so want a scene where Lyric rides on my shoulder or just pops out of my backpack at random just to say hiLyric is small enough to take up inventory in your pack
.....Evil bastards who would do such a thing? Lyric sounds adorablechoose not to revive Lyric
All hail the mighty B!! This character sounds like it's gonna be alot of work but I have totally faith that you'll make it utterly magnificent ^w^ Keep up the awesome workThere's a lot of content still planned for them coming up; I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoy writing them!
Keep in mind, the more transformatives you give a character, the additional content they require increases exponentially. Even just making Lyric super tall is going to require completely new sex scenes, because the current ones are all going to assume that they're short. So, ideally, if I give them more transformatives, they need to be worth it to me (the guy that's writing it) and Savin (the guy that's paying for it).Awesome!
That's good to know.
Speaking of dragon waifus, and a certain infamous dragon waifu from CoC, will it be possible to give Lyric various transformatives?
Or will they be limited to a few of them?
Savin wants an alchemical option to turn Lyric into an 8 foot tall draginwaifu
Savin (the guy that's paying for it).
Lyric preg will be an option
Sir, I would thank you not to call me a bastard.Evil bastards who would do such a thing?
You release [lyric.hisHer] arm and ask [lyric.himHer] what [lyric.heShe] wanted with your money. Is that why [lyric.heShe] wanted to be so close to you from the start? So [lyric.heShe] could rob you?
“No, please, that’s not it at all!” [lyric.heShe] begs, falling to [lyric.hisHer] knees before you and clasping [lyric.hisHer] hands together, begging you for mercy. “I thought you were carrying around all that metal as a snack! And I… I figured, if I was travelling with you, then I could have some too!”
You pause. Lyric was <i>eating your money?</i>
“I know <b>now</b> that I’m not supposed to!” [lyric.heShe] continues. “I thought… I just… I didn’t realize that it wasn’t okay! I’m sorry, I really should have asked first….”
Okay, back up. You’re more confused than you are angry. You ask Lyric if eating electrum is a thing that all kobolds do.
Lyric, in turn, cocks [lyric.hisHer] head to one side inquisitively. “You mean… you <b>don’t</b>?”
You answer that you and your kind use electrum as currency. You use it to buy things. It’s probably one of the <i>least</i> edible things you can think of.
It takes a moment for Lyric to process the information you’ve just given [lyric.himHer]. “Oh,” [lyric.heShe] eventually says. “Uh… well, going backwards: yes, eating electrum is a thing that all kobolds do. It’s considered a delicacy, especially where I come from: it’s not a very common foodstuff, and it’s <b>delicious.</b> Second only to gold.”
Lyric lowers [lyric.hisHer] head, [lyric.hisHer] eyes still on yours but unable to keep [lyric.hisHer] nose pointed up towards you. “And… yes, I’ve been eating it. I thought you were keeping it around for the same reason. Since there was so much, I thought that the bite-sized stuff you kept in your pouch was for snacking on.”
You lower your face into your right palm and take a deep breath through your nose. You ask Lyric how many coins [lyric.heShe]’s eaten.
[lyric.HeShe] winces and cowers into [lyric.himHer]self, bracing for a strike. “Ten,” [lyric.heShe] answers.
Only ten? Okay, that’s not <i>nearly</i> as bad as you were expecting.
You tell Lyric that, first of all, you aren’t mad with [lyric.himHer], so [lyric.heShe] can relax. [lyric.HeShe] immediately does so, loosening [lyric.hisHer] grip on [lyric.himHer]self and uncoiling in front of you.
However, second of all, [lyric.heShe] is, under no circumstances <i>whatsoever</i>, allowed to eat your electrum without your permission from this point forward. You ask [lyric.himHer] if [lyric.heShe] understands.
“Yes, that’s crystal clear,” [lyric.heShe] responds timidly, afraid that the wrong answer might incur the wrath you’ve already told [lyric.himHer] that you aren’t going to strike [lyric.himHer] with.
Well, at least that’s cleared up. You tell Lyric again that you aren’t mad – you just wanted to know ahead of time what [lyric.heShe] was doing with your money before [lyric.heShe] made assumptions.
And besides, if it’s true that electrum is considered a delicacy to kobolds, then you can look into budgeting them out so that [lyric.heShe] can have some every now and again as a treat.
At that, [lyric.hisHer] eyes widen, and [lyric.hisHer] tail stands straight-out from behind [lyric.himHer]. “Do you mean it?!” [lyric.heShe] asks – already [lyric.hisHer] tongue is hanging out, salivating at the thought of getting more of your electrum to eat. You tell [lyric.himHer] that you promise to keep [lyric.himHer] in mind when it comes to budgeting your money in the future.
At that, Lyric shuffles forward on [lyric.hisHer] knees and hugs your legs. “You’re the best,” [lyric.heShe] says, before [lyric.heShe] skitters back into your pack.
“And it’s probably a good thing that you cut me off before I got too carried away anyway,” [lyric.heShe] continues once you heft your pack back up into place. “If I had free reign of all the electrum I could want, I’m positive it’d all go straight to my thighs!”
… interesting, and good to keep in mind.
[lyric.HeShe] just mentioned that kobolds like to eat metal?
“Oh yes! Some types of metal are actually considered to be part of a staple diet for us. We can eat meat and fruit, which are much easier to come by, but you can tell if a kobold’s gotten a steady input of the good stuff by the glow of their scales and the shape of their bodies. I think [pc.race]s are the same way, too?”
You answer that, in your culture, the saying is that ‘abs start in the kitchen.’ Eating healthy is as important to a strong, shapely body as proper exercise is. [lyric.electrumRange 0 50|You ask what a ‘well fed’ kobold that’s been fed a steady diet of ‘the good metal’ is supposed to be shaped like.
“I’ll give you three guesses, and the first two don’t count,” [lyric.heShe] answers with an overly-exaggerated sway of [lyric.hisHer] hips, causing the fat of [lyric.hisHer] thighs to jiggle, sway, and clap together at the apex of each swing.
… interesting to note.|You ask Lyric if eating metal makes <i>every</i> kobold’s thighs explode with girth and mass like [lyric.mf|his|hers] did.
“Where I come from, yep,” [lyric.heShe] answers, turning around and lifting [lyric.hisHer] tail, giving you an unimpeded look at [lyric.hisHer] fat kobold ass, [lyric.hisHer] tights audibly creaking to contain it all. “Big booties like this baby,” [lyric.heShe] says, slapping [lyric.hisHer] right ass cheek for emphasis, “are considered attractive to kobolds from my region, because it means they’re well-off and that their mates and children would probably be well-fed, too.[lyric.electrumRange 0 100|| Send me into a kobold camp or village looking like this, and we’d have a whole harem of little ankle-biters looking to get in on what we have, [pc.name].] I dunno if it’s the same deal with your northern kobolds, but based on the Undermountain’s queen and the bottom she’s got, I’m gonna go with a yes.”
… something to keep in mind for later.]
[=Feed 1=]
You reach into your pouch and withdraw a single electrum coin from it before handing it to Lyric. You tell [lyric.himHer] that, if [lyric.heShe] keeps being a good [lyric.mf|boy|girl], there’s plenty more in it for [lyric.himHer] where that came from.
Lyric’s eyes grow wide as can be as [lyric.heShe] delicately handles the electrum coin with both thumbs and index fingers. [lyric.HisHer] eyes are so wide that you can see the reflection of the coin in [lyric.hisHer] pupils. With the amount of gentle care and reverence [lyric.heShe]’s holding it, you’d think that this was the first electrum coin [lyric.heShe]’d eaten, or that this is the first gift [lyric.heShe]’s ever gotten, which you know for a fact is untrue and is probably untrue, respectively.
You blink, and, with a lurch, and the sound of metal being torn apart in a single heavy chomp, the entire coin is gone, and Lyric’s throat noisily swallows the entire thing in one go. [lyric.HeShe] barely even chewed it; one bite was all it took, and the entire thing is gone, just like that.
“Thank you,” [lyric.heShe] says with a content, satisfied sigh, [lyric.hisHer] tongue licking at [lyric.hisHer] lips as [lyric.heShe] basks in the afterglow of an amazing, if short-lived, meal.
In lieu of money? I'm gonna say no so the coders don't try to murder me.Will Lyric accept "Broken Metal Parts" in lieu of Hawks?
this is still the most real line in a long list of heartstring pullers, B“Yes, that’s crystal clear,” [lyric.heShe] responds timidly, afraid that the wrong answer might incur the wrath you’ve already told [lyric.himHer] that you aren’t going to strike [lyric.himHer] with.
This wouldn't be a coding issue, more of a game design issue with however it's implemented. Does Lyric ask for the metal parts? Probably fine. Do they just disappear from your inventory? Probably not fine. The code is fairly trivial either way though.In lieu of money? I'm gonna say no so the coders don't try to murder me.
