Okay, first of all, the legalese. This is not an intended list of future projects, I am not trying to solicit people to help me write these things, and this is all on my head. Although I appreciate and welcome discussions and commentary, I cannot promise that anything talked about here will make it into the game.
Now, on to the actual explanation. I have a lot of ideas for characters. This is not entirely a bad thing, as, after all, where would Fall of Eden be without its NPCs? It'd be pretty damn boring. Problem is, A: LD and I have a huge workload as it is, so we can't go haring after every concept I have or we'll never get anything done, and B: frankly, I'm not all that good at designing characters. What we strive to do is to make our characters feel "life-like", to try and get them engaging. My characters... well, let's be honest, they tend to be kind of empty of anything except fetish fuel. Not helping is that I have a tendency to cling to stuff that doesn't matter in the grand scheme, I'm miserly when it comes to character making - for example, before LD had some success in hammering "don't fix what ain't broke!" into my head, I actually suggested using one character we're working as a hotbed for my monstergirl cravings and my desire for a dog-dicked catgirl on seperate occasions - and I generally have a problem with seeing & trimming metaphorical fat from my ideas.
I'm tired of harassing LD the way I have, and yet, I need a way to vent my ideas or my head's going to burst. So, this topic, with LD's official permission, where I can toss out things that have been bugging me and either lay them to rest or, just maybe, come back to them in the future and see if I can make something workable from the shards of potential amongst the chaff.
Idea #1: The Cursed Cuntboi/Hydra-girl
This is something I got an idea for after finding some pics on a /tg/ board that were based on one of the board's stories; a former knight cursed by a dragon into a cuntboi and compelled to get knocked up with half-dragon eggs, a process that was slowly turning him into a girl. Since dragons are a no-go in Eden, I went with the idea of a hydra monstergirl "end game" instead. I actually talked this one a little with LD, but my failures to develop it properly made me shelve her, until I thought to start this process here.
The basic idea of this character is that they're a gladiator who made a deal with a hydra's spirit in order to become the greatest champion ever. The spirit agreed, but as a side-effect of the pact, swapped the guy's junk for her own, cursing him that if he ever was defeated, he would become the mate of whoever defeated them. And then you come along and take him down, of course. The character's sexual themes would be MtF TGing, Human to Monstergirl Corruption, Cum-Drinking, Breeding and possibly Forced Feminization.
The original idea I had was that her personality is dynamic, allowing you to tailor just how feminine she acts vs. how masculine, but that might be too much work. Likewise, I had originally figured he would go through three distinct forms, but I think LD advocated that it'd be too much work and I should just make him go straight to MG-form once you win him. Forms outlined below.
Beginner form; human cuntboi (effeminate face but otherwise masculine) with clearly inhuman pussy.
Intermediate form; partially scaled, dragon-horned, reverse trap with draconic tail and limb, hydra heads from shoulders.
Final appearance: tall (6-7ft?) and voluptuous hydra-girl. Human face, but scales all over in lieu of skin. Snake-like eyes, elongated and prehensile snake tongue, draconic horns. Sprouts at least two snakes that end in anthro "hydra" (snake with dragon-horns) heads from her shoulders; tendency to talk to these heads. Prehensile serpentine tail - maybe it ends in a "hydra head" as well? Draconic arms and limbs.
I have no idea for the character beyond this; he needs a believable backstory, a compelling history, a plausible reason for the player to get involved, and an understandable motivation for joining the player. I got zip on any of these. The above is actually his second iteration; he started out as something rather different:
A former male adventurer who tried to fight off an evil sorceress with a distaste for men. He succeeded, but when she fled, she cursed him with a spell that traded his male genitalia for those of a hydra-girl. Now he is fighting a losing battle to hold onto his sanity as his new junk compels him to make use of it. The more feminine sex he has, the more he transforms, until what's eventually left is a man-eating breeder, a scaly fuck-machine with a ravenous womb that hungers to make more hydra-girls and just fuck, fuck, FUCK everyone around her.
If your character chooses to get involved, you can plunge him into damnation by shamelessly using him, resulting in her transformation into a ravening beast who will run off into the wilderness
Or, you can be nice to him; try to help him and encourage him, even as you sate his urges. In this scenario, although she still transforms into a hydra, she manages to form a loving bond with you, allowing her to keep her sanity by fixating on you as her mate/prize and throwing off the remnants of her tormentor's enslavement spells. This way, she becomes a follower - ideally, a combat one, but she needs a proper role to play in the party.
Idea #2: The Pirate Queens (Sharktopus vs. Akhlut)
Intended for the second act, these are a pair of NPCs for one of the worlds beyond Eden. I have't decided if they're morphs or MGs, or even what sex they are - I know they're both cocked girls, but I haven't decided if they're both herms, both dickgirls, or one of each. So yeah, I don't blame you for being skeptical of these two right away.
The basic idea is that each of these girls is a proud and skilled local figure - a pirate queen, a mob boss, some less-than-legal authority figure - and they're bitter rivals with each other. Ideally, each would have her own subquests and missions associated with her, allowing you to choose to help out, assist one in driving the other off, just become a slutty toy they fight over, or even power-bottom your way into a threesome with the two queenly figures. Not initially considered as followers; I'd like the idea, but pure fuckbuddies is what I'm happy to settle for. Both girls are full-fledged dominant lovers; they're not going to submit to you. Beyond that, though, they each have their quirks...
One of the two is a sharktopus - which is what it sounds like, a shark-octopus hybrid. A voluptuous statuesque stunner, she's got a "loving dom" sort of thing going on. She's a tender, gentle lover, but she's also unabashedly in charge; tentacle play & sex, teasing, paizuri, motorboating, orgasm denial, things like this are her tools for making it clear that even as she loves you in her bed, you're still going to do what she wants, and you're going to love it. She likes a subbier PC, someone who gives in to her ministrations and who enjoys her teasing, her head games, even her public molestations - it's not that she's a bitch when she secretly slips a tentacle cock up your butt in the middle of the restaurant, she's just in love with her ability to mess around with you and have you enjoy it. She's clever, cunning, thoughtful and patient, with a mischievous sense of humor. The thought has struck me that she might have something of a breeder's lust, that she's particularly looking to have heirs to her proverbial throne, but that's probably just me piling shit on again.
The other... I'm not sure if I should make her an akhlut (an Inuit monster, essentially an orca/wolf hybrid) or just a pure orca. The former option feels like a nice balance, but on the other hand, in where I'd desired to place these two, I don't know if there's wolf-morphs. Anyway, this one is the "young buck" of the duo, the challenger, all full of fire and guts and not a lot in the way of brains. Your classic hotheaded amazon type. She's a rough lover who's big on cumplay, cumflation, cum-marking, lovebiting and generally rough, messy sex. Ironically, the key to impressing her is to have a higher Slut rating and a higher Dom score rather than a Sub score. See, she doesn't want a fucktoy; she can pick those up whenever and wherever she wants. She wants a mate. Someone who can get into it as much as she does, who makes her work for her release - someone she can catch from without feeling like a weakling, and who can give her the thrill of being legitimately challenged, even beaten, in an arena she's never lost in before.
Idea #3: The Unicorn Love-Rat
I literally just thought this one up this morning. It's a weird idea, even by my standards, because I'm not normally interested in male characters. In essence, this unicorn-morph used to be a normal stallion-morph wizard; a bit of a perv, but a decent guy... just cripplingly shy around women. He took an experimental spell/potion to fix himself, and he wound up as a unicorn, with much stronger magical powers... and a huge dose of ego and perversion. As you might have guessed from the placeholder title, this guy is all about wooing and seducing women - and, more importantly, knocking them up. He's got a bit of a god complex, and he wants to spread his "gift of seed" as far and as wide as possible. Thing is, if you're not so girly that you trigger his lust, he's actually kind of bro. He's got all sorts of magical tricks he's whipped up to make sex more effective, and happy to share, so he's a good source for stuff that boosts potency or virility.
This is probably me piling shit on again, but my thoughts beyond that amounted to something simple: "what happens if he learns of a way to knock up guys?"
My answer? If he does learn of that, he becomes more... hostile. He's not a fighter, but he'll try and trick a guy into letting him use his magic on them, which A: drastically raises femininity, and B: gives them the mpreg trait so that C: he can try and seduce them into letting him put a baby in their belly now he can get it up for them.
Of course, such a character, especially if he tries to make you into his breeder no matter you're starting gender, needs an option for payback. Not exactly sure what, beyond vague ideas of turning the tables somehow, maybe with him winding up as a perpetually knocked up shemale broodmare or something...
Now, on to the actual explanation. I have a lot of ideas for characters. This is not entirely a bad thing, as, after all, where would Fall of Eden be without its NPCs? It'd be pretty damn boring. Problem is, A: LD and I have a huge workload as it is, so we can't go haring after every concept I have or we'll never get anything done, and B: frankly, I'm not all that good at designing characters.
