A1 and B (Act like you’re not doing it on purpose). Ask naively how the governor reacted when he knew that Arlandus tricked the "assassins". And how he must trust him greatly to accept to put his life and his family in danger. I like it nightshade99 – made me smile when I read it.

Sorry again for the late post – I’ve had hardly any time to do writing because I’ve been so busy. Still, I appreciate that you all take the time to read the story despite the long delays.

You notice, and have noticed, Arlandus continually ogle you from the short distance that separates the two of you and decide to use that to your advantage. You also feel that continuing to be polite to the man is in your best interests, as whenever someone displeases him or even remotely challenges him he seems to become flustered and angry; snapping against Qwilgrub, Pria, the elven woman – who’s name you still do not know – and Sharpstone, though more for his behavior more than anything. No… he doesn’t like to be challenged; he thinks he can do no wrong and provoking him would just get me in trouble. Still, I can’t placate him and simply ask questions as that seems to be getting me nowhere fast, and I can’t simply accuse him of anything… but if I were to play on the naïve little girl and act, well, like a ditz than maybe, just maybe I might get him to slip up. I should be careful with how I do this… and I suppose I could try to act more interested in him; a glance here, a lip bite there, a little cleavage and a swish of my hair. Stroking his ego and his manhood, metaphorically speaking, might do wonders to speed this along you think as you gaze at Arlandus as he gazes back from time to time as his adoring fans shower him with praises. You inwardly sigh before you bite your bottom lip while he’s not looking and, once he turns to look at you, you widen your eyes ever so slightly and avert your gaze down and to the right as you take a tiny sip of your wine. Out of the corner of your eye you see Arlandus grin and puff his chest up a little, and it takes all you have to not grin yourself… or to scowl. You strike up a conversation with a human woman in flowing black dress that reaches down to the floor, though you’re not wholly committed to the exchange as she goes on about keeping up with the latest fashion trends by the day, however, you do mention that you had your dress made by Xillia when she expresses interest in what you’re wearing which intrigues her. As you think that you’ve potentially gained another customer for your petite elven lover you notice Arlandus looking at you once again, so you stop to return the look with a shy smile as you bring your right hand to your hair and smooth out some locks behind your ear before returning to the conversation. This goes on for a little while with you offering small moments of interest, even “unconsciously” adjusting the front of your dress so that you show just the tiniest bit of extra cleavage. As time goes on you note that Arlandus spends less time conversing and more time paying attention to you, even fumbling over his words every now and then as he seems to focus his attention on you.

I think he’s sufficiently “teased” and more susceptible now; time to go in heavy.

You bite your bottom lip while looking at Arlandus and, when you notice him looking you quickly stop and try to look like you weren’t doing anything suggestive before asking airily “My lord, Arlandus, that last story was truly riveting. Were you and the late governor good friends, even after the incident?” Arlandus grins when you speak to him and seems to hang on your every word as he nods absently and says “Of course, young Catherine, of course – we knew each other for a great deal of time before, and after the incident he grew to trust me even more implicitly”. This earns a frustrated scoff from the elven woman, and Arlandus snaps his head towards her and glares… a glare which she returns as she takes a sip of her wine. Not wanting to get off topic and have Arlandus start to get belligerent, you quickly ask “My lord, the late Governor Ulric must have trusted you implicitly and greatly valued the friendship you both shared to overlook using him and Glethal as bait to snare the rogues in your trap. Why, most people would not have accepted that fact after learning that they were used, especially knowing that they deceived others into committing a greater crime and falsifying it”. At this statement Arlandus slowly turns to you and cocks an eyebrow as you hold your wine glass in both hands, doing your best to look naïve and meek. He opens his mouth to speak, irritation crossing his features mingled with confusion, but then closes his mouth and seems to be fighting with himself before he slowly says “And what makes you think Ulric learned anything, girl? Why do you assume I told him anything?” You give Arlandus a curious and confused look before responding “But, my lord Arlandus, why would you not share with him your exploits? Your plan was genius and is that not what friends do, my lord? Surely you would have confided in such a dear friend, and surely he must have been supremely impressed with your actions – I am still in awe at your brilliance and boldness at your actions and am eager to hear even more!” You can almost see the gears turning in Arlandus’ head as his dark green eyes look you over before he slowly nods at your performance, seemingly accepting your airheaded response before smiling and saying “Ah, yes, of course young Catherine! You are wise to see the wisdom and brilliance in my actions, but I did not share my exploits with Ulric for… sensitive reasons. He… h-he” Arlandus seems a little confused as he continues to speak, like he’s trying to stop himself – you fear that his reason might be winning over, and so you lean in closer and act very interested in what he has to say, which you are, while showing a little bit of cleavage and smiling at him with a sultry look. This seems to melt Arlandus’ reason as he stops, smiles, and continues after shaking his head “He learned about that night much later on, and not from me. In fact, my ‘old friend’ was in the dark for a few years after that, but had begun to… suspect me of other things. Money turning up short in some areas – construction of new buildings and maintenance of the roads and buildings, services for the ‘less fortunate’, and so on – along with replacing most of the staff here, frequent visits to the capital using city funding… and even questioning some of my advice as they went against his ‘principles’. He began… he began to investigate me behind my back despite all that I had done! The guard is better than it has ever been; more disciplined and with noble blood in them, and those of lesser standing quickly disciplined and turned into a true force! The streets cobbled, the districts ordered! Trade brought to this city at the edge of the country – it has prospered because of me!”

This piques your interest, and the interest of those around him, especially some of the less than pleased with his earlier confessions, and you press the attack and ask “Surely all was well, my lord. After all, he was your friend and he knew your intentions were of the best possible course; your judgment sound and your logic unwaveringly infallible”. “You have no idea how right you are, young Catherine! My judgment and logic have no equal; my will and direction should never be questioned!” Arlandus almost roars loudly as he stamps his staff on the ground a few times, drawing the attention of yet more individuals. You look about and see more nobles of the city, and even a few of the foreign diplomats and emissaries turn to see what the commotion is, even Hera and her troupe – you crack a tiny smile when you see the governess and her son looking, interrupting the conversations that they were having. However, you also notice something else that disturbs you; each of Arlandus’ guards stir slightly from their stone-like stance and direct their attention towards their charge as he becomes more agitated, each of their heads turning in unison. You find the action eerie, but quickly shake it off as the advisor continues by saying “He should not have gone snooping around behind my back. He should have just listened to me, trusted me and my council. I earned everything that came my way… I deserved it, all of it! For years I had earned his trust, but somewhere along the line he became suspicious – my ‘friend’ questioned my methods, the things I bought, and the alliances I made. I don’t know where it all went wrong, but he should not have done so!” It’s striking the turn your line of questioning has taken the advisor as he trails off and his eyes seem to glaze over as he reminisces on what happened. “I am certa- you begin to say, pressing onwards but are abruptly cut off by the elven woman, who has a deep scowl on her face that mars her delicate features, as she growls out “Enough of your naïve and airheaded questions, girl! Arlandus, what did you do?! You turned mere thieves into assassins and had them murdered and tried under your influence and deceit – that was one thing, but now you speak of the governor becoming suspicious of you with guilt on your face and in your voice?” You’re taken aback by the… brashness of the woman, but you can’t deny the results as Arlandus snarls at her, downing his wine before tossing the cup onto the ground and saying “Do not question me, wench, and do not speak to the young Catherine in that tone! I have powerful allies with power that you could not even fathom! Ulric did not realize this when he came to me that night with ‘evidence’ and started asking questions… accusing me of misconduct, corruption, and abusing my power!”

You try to look hurt at the woman’s speaking down to you and, while it does irk you somewhat, you’re infinitely more pleased that the room has grown more silent as Arlandus’ shouts grow louder with every word to match the other woman. You’re curious about who these friends are that Arlandus mentions and so you try to keep with your role as you say “Please, there is no need for this – who might these friends be, my lo-“ but again are cut off as the light brown haired woman slams her cup on the ground, the shattering of glass ringing out around you as it echoes off the stone floor while the remainder of the red wine spills out around the tiny destruction. “Enough, girl, the adults are speaking! Go home back to your father – Arlandus, your words are perilously close to treason! I demand to kno-“ she bellows out in anger, bringing her right hand up and pointing viciously at Arlandus. “You demand from me?!” the advisor roars as he goes red in the face, slamming down his staff in rage with his left hand as he points at the woman with his right “No one demands anything from me you insignificant speck of rubbish! I give the orders, I do as I please, I have power and you do not!” You watch as Arlandus approaches the woman, who stands her ground, and as most of the room watches on with wide eyes and in silence – even governess Glethal and her son Koren are stunned as they watch the display from afar, with only a single guard – the orc guard – moving down the stairs from his post to possibly quell the commotion. You just sit back and watch, both uneasy and amused all at once as things unfold between the two without you having to do much else, and you take note of the growing crowd as nearly everyone in the room remains silent as the two trade punches. “Really?” the elf practically spits out with a grin “So you licking the boots of the governess and her son a little while ago was you ‘giving the orders’ and ‘doing as you please’? You’re nothing more than a glorified brown-noser sucking at the teat of your superiors for table scraps! Ulric –“. “Ulric was a fool!” the nearly purple faced Arlandus cries out, earning a few gasps from the crowd “He should have known better than to question me and my will! The poor districts deserve nothing! That money is rightfully mine! He ordered that I find a way to move more money to ‘help the people’, and so I did if only to appease him, and still it was not enough! He hired some blasted rogues to investigate me behind my back and was going to expose me if I did not step down with some of the ‘evidence’ he had! I couldn’t let it happen… I couldn’t!”

The transition that Arlandus has made from smooth and collected, to irritated, to half mad with anger is astonishing to you, and you silently thank Nyx for the serum and how it has sped things along… and also a prayer to Yyssbo and wishing that nothing like that be used against you. Things seem to reach a head as Arlandus’ rage boils over, but still he holds back… until he looks at you – he looks at you, perhaps for guidance, and in his rage filled eyes you start to see reason cooling the flames of his anger. However, that is the last thing you want to happen, and so you smile shyly at him and give him a smoldering, if somewhat tame, look and say “My lord, your passion is astounding and the lengths you go to for yourself are breathtaking… please, my lord, don’t stop”. And that’s all it takes for Arlandus as he smiles grimly and puffs his chest up as desire sparks in his eyes. “Oh for the love of the gods, shut u-!” the elven woman says angrily as she rolls her eyes before glaring at you… and then a resounding thwack! resonates throughout the room followed by even more audible gasps from nearly everyone around. You watch in stunned silence as the elven woman’s face whips to the left after having just been backhanded by Arlandus. “Silence, fool” the advisor says icily “And listen to what I have to say. That self-righteous idiot Ulric was going to ruin everything I had worked so hard for, and so using my considerable knowledge and skills in alchemy I concocted a most deadly brew I like to call Death’s Lingering Shadow. Once ingested your life is over; it is slow acting and the effects will not show until the fourth day after ingestion. Shortness of breath, fatigue, and lethargy are common, and on the seventh day the heart ceases to function. I killed the miserable bastard and intended to take his place, but his whore of a wife took over due to popular demand and I’ve been at the beck and call of her and her miserable little spawn ever since, which has only gotten worse since the worthless offspring has grown up! Thankfully, they are far easier to control than their pitiful excuse of a husband and father, especially after I was there to ‘console’ her and help raise the little bastard”.

Holy crap you think with wide eyes as the gasps reverberate throughout the room, though the shocked silence that follows is infinitely more deafening to your ears. Forget everything else that he’s said or done; this confession just sealed his fate. “You traitorous bastard” the woman snaps her head back, pain and anger on her face as she spits at his feet and looks him in the eyes with a smirk “You’ll hang for this. You’ve sealed your fate you miserable piece of filth”. Arlandus looks confused for a moment before looking up and noting Glethal and her sons horrified, pained, and enraged faces before turning to the orc/oni guard, who has his great sword drawn. As the seconds tick by he finally realizes what he’s done… and laughs – he laughs hysterically, maniacally, bringing his right hand to his face as he supports his weight on his staff in his left. “Arrest him!” you hear Koren’s voice boom out, and looking towards the young Casaban you see that Glethal is too distraught to issue any orders, tears streaming down her face as she covers her mouth with her hands, though Koren looks more enraged than anything. “I’ve waited far too long for this; I should have done this years ago” you hear Arlandus say, and you can feel something coming as each of the six guards that Arlandus brought with him draw their ornate, jewel encrusted swords from the scabbards on their back. “What are you ta- where are you going?!” the elven woman yells through a visage of anger and disgust as Arlandus turns on his heels… and strides right for you with an evil smile on his face.

Oh, this can’t be good.

You instinctively take a small step back, and you think about defending yourself, but ultimately you decide against it as you see those that are armed and against Arlandus raising their weapons, as well as the guards that are under the governess’ employ making their way towards the advisor – now ex-advisor as the case seems to be. “M-My lord?” you ask as you grip your wine glass in your left hand while reaching down to your leg near your dagger with your right. “Fret not, young Catherine, you may be disoriented for but a moment. It shall pass” is all Arlandus says. “Hold fast, Arlandus!” the orc/oni guard, now confirmed to be male based on the deep, gruff voice, commands as he holds his greatsword out in front of him “By order of governess Glethal Casaban and Koren Casaban, rightful rulers of Kilnhaven and the will of the people, I am placing you under arrest!” At this point you drop your wine glass and start to back away from the deranged man, but alas he doesn’t seem to notice or care and in an instant he reaches out with his right hand and grabs your shoulder… and then you bear witness to the most awesome and terrifying display of magical power you have ever witnessed. He immediately glows in a bright violet, white, and brown mixed light and his staff, along with the crystals, glows and shimmers as he raises it up before releasing an enormous multicolored shockwave that blinds, deafens, and dazes you. You yell out in surprise and fear as your sense of hearing, sight, and entire world become muddled with the only thing that you really feel is having someone’s, probably Arlandus’, hand on your back before being pressed into a soft and silky fabric… that and the world around you seems to be shaking, as evident by the rumbling you feel under your feet. You don’t know how long this goes on for, and you can feel yourself being dragged after a little while and shuffled up some stairs, nearly tripping over your own feet and something on the floor that feels distinctly like legs, as if you’re tripping over other people. After a little while your sense of hearing starts to return, and the first sounds you hear are screams of terror, fear, agony, and panic – your sight starts to slowly return, though blurry as you see shapes, too many to count, moving about a ways away in front of you. After a few more moments your senses fully return and you’re met with a terrifying sight. The first thing you see is people, all dressed in the various finery of the higher class, running and stumbling over themselves towards the door… but it is no use as the stone floor looks like an earthquake struck it right from the spot you and Arlandus were standing; there’s a trail of stone that looks like it was ripped from the very earth itself that travels the length of the room to the doors and, jutting out from the ground, are two huge brown chunks of earth that jut diagonally towards the door, pushing and holding it closed with incredible force.

On top of the screams of terror and panic are screams of agony and, upon searching the room with wide eyes and without breathing, you see many of Arlandus’ guards cutting down people as they go, many of which never stood a chance as they still seem to be blinded and deafened from the surprise attack. You watch in horror as the massive guards’ greatswords swing overhead and horizontally, sending out a spray of blood from their victims. You watch as a human woman in a red dress stumbles about, clearly dazed, only to haze one of the guards thrust with his weapon and impale her through the heart, killing her instantly before withdrawing the blade, letting the body fall as crimson blood pools out from her gaping chest, a stark contrast with the dress the now dead woman wears. You watch as another guard swings his sword horizontally in front of him, catching two men – an elven waiter and a half-goblin noble – decapitating the elf and sending his head flying out into the panicked crowd with the sword travels into the noble’s right arm, severing it as blood sprays from the stump as it continues to travel about halfway into his body. In all maybe a little more than a dozen people are massacred in less than sixty seconds before the entire group seems to have regained their senses. You absently look out at the crowd in shock and find that the orc/oni guard has come to his senses and rushes to engage one of the aggressors. You wonder where the others are and, closer to the stage, you see the dwarf guard pull out his great hammer(?) and scream a war cry before rushing to join his comrade – you wonder where the other two are and, looking to your left, you see the other two pulling the governess towards the edge of the stage with their shields up in defense of their charge with Koren, armed with a shortsword, right behind them shielding his mother as she struggles to recuperate. This all seems to happen in slow motion… and then time and reality start rushing back at you in full force as everything seems to become too loud and the screams become too much – you shield your ears as you become overwhelmed and start to panic from the merciless slaughter. However, a few things push back the fear and shock; first, you see the elven woman shouting out orders to some of the other remaining guards and seemingly soldiers that attended the ball, rallying them, second is that Hera, wielding her longsword and shortsword, issues commands to her guard as they engage, though you can’t really tell what either say from your distance.

The third, and final, thing that pulls you back to reality is the voice of Arlandus right beside you, and it is at this point that you realize fully that you are on the platform at the front of the room directly in front of the seats Glethal and her son had mere minutes ago. “Finally, I shall take my rightful place as ruler of this pathetic city! Gods, I should have done this ages ago – all you who stand before me kneel to me and I shall grant leniency. Know that I reward submission with the gift of life and power… and all who defy me I shall destroy! Now, make your choice – bow to your rightful king or die” Arlandus’ voice booms beside you throughout the room as he holds his hands and staff up with a wide, malicious grin on his face. At his voice the guards under the magician’s command cease their attacks instantly on both the people and the governess’ entourage along with any other would be attacker, their swords out in front of them as they are literally still as stone. “We will never bow to you, traitor! Your kind are the worst – you inspire fear instead of respect, and I for one will never bend my knee to one such as you! I, Yunlya Elistranna, Captain of the Third Ranger Division of Eborthia’s Army, vow to see your head on a pike for your crimes, scum!” the elven woman, Yunlya, roars as she points her shortsword at both you and Arlandus from afar. “I stand with the honorable Captain!” Hera say matter of factly, her towering form imposing even to every other combatant in the room. The guards loyal to the governess and those against Arlandus, such as Qwilgrub and a few others, both armed and unarmed, voice their allegiances against the advisor. Still, there are more than a few that do not speak as they are overcome with fear as they look up the dozens of dead that line the room, some barely recognizable as blades and stone from the spell that Arlandus cast earlier maimed them and reduced some to nothing more than bloody pulps of meat and bone. “I bow to your wisdom and power, King Arlandus! All hail Arlandus!” you hear a familiar, disgusting voice ring out throughout the room, and you look down to see the plump form of Sharpstone, literally bowing down to the ground on his hands and knees in supplication. His submission makes your stomach turn in knots, and your mind works in overdrive now on how you will deal with the situation as it seems Arlandus thinks you truly want him, making you somewhat regret your own skills at the moment.

Re: Rift Touched

“Ah, at least one among you shows wisdom. Perhaps a demonstration is in order to speed things along” Arlandus says nonchalantly and with a laugh before he points the end of his staff out at the crowd, the large black focus crystal on the end glowing incredibly bright along with Arlandus himself in a sickly black glow for a moment before literally dozens of black rays of darkness erupt from the end of the staff, and you swear that you hear wailing screams coming from each and every one of them. You watch in horror as the rays fly about the room and slam into the recently deceased corpses, and for each corpse struck, even the ones with missing limbs, you watch as the bodies convulse and shrivel slightly before each and every corpse, aside from the truly obliterated corpses, slowly rise to their feet with gaunt faces and moans. “Behold my power! The dead themselves rise at my command! Join me now or I swear I shall have them feast on your corpses as you still draw breath!” Arlandus again booms, his threat ominously genuine to all that hear him, which makes the decision for dozens more people as they bow or kneel to Arlandus out of fear. “Good… now, grab a weapon and slay those that oppose me or suffer a fate worse than death!” – at his command many rise and look for weapons, some even opting to draw their fists up uncertainly at Yunlya, Hera, Glethal’s guards, and anyone else against Arlandus. “No!” you hear Glethal’s voice ring out to the far left of you, making your head snap over to face her as she stands up proudly, pushing passed her guards and her son “Do not be deceived by his lies! His words are poison and his promises false! If you join him, even should he succeed here today, he will not escape that judgment of the High Council! He has already slain the emissaries of our neighbors, and they will not stand for such slaughter! Stand with my, kinsman, and together we”. “Bold words” the advisor says in a taunting voice “But I doubt the High Council will do anything against the traitors who tried to seize control of the city for themselves and murdered most of the ruling class before those loyal to the city, such as myself and those behind me, exacted righteous justice on them and delivered the heads of the conspirators to those in Scoleshire, Grazbulork, Ornsimun, Falwathyn, Wehndarwil, and to avoid all-out war the high Council will have to agree… is that not right, my followers? And with you all dead, who will dispute the claims? Now… sit back and watch, Glethal, as I tear apart your only hope and all you’ve worked for over the years” You feel a lump in your throat as there are murmurs and even shouts of agreement from those that submitted to Arlandus, with the loudest being Sharpstone by far. You hear all of this and your mind reels… and then you wonder why in all the hells are you just standing around, acting like a scared little girl? You look out at the crowd and see Yunlya glaring back at you and Arlandus both, believing you to be with this madman, and then you see Hera and her steely gaze meets yours.

You stare into her eyes for a long few moments and she nods with a small smile, and you nod back before reaching at your hip and snaking your right hand near the hem of your skirt… but stop as you hear a barely audible whistle. You look to Arlandus and see that he’s too busy smirking and chuckling as he looks at the governess and her son in triumph, and then you slowly turn your head around, your red locks getting in your eyes somewhat, as you look behind you. You almost smile when you see a short, stocky pale dwarven woman that’s very familiar to you besides having blonde. Hidden behind the seats, poking her head out with a wicked looking curved dagger in her hand, is a blonde haired, shimmering gold dress wearing Nyx. You make eye contact with her and, in that moment, she winks at you as you both come to an understanding.

Time to make a move you think as you look back at Arlandus, and as soon as you look at him he turns and smiles evilly back at you and says “Stay with me, my Catherine, and I will make you queen of this city… and then you can introduce me to your father and we can talk about marriage arrangements. How wealthy did you say your father was again?” Not as rich as you would like, Arlandus, you deluded maniac. Now, how will I go about doing this? Should I just up and attack him? He has a lot of enchanted gear, so that might not be the best idea without hitting him where it hurts right from the get go. Still, besides the undead he’s created the biggest threat is his magic and that staff of his – if I can get that staff away from him or pry loose some of his crystals then that will be one less spell he can use. Speaking of undead, I don’t know how long the others can hold out against them and the combined might of Arlandus’ magic and those that have turned against the governess… or how long I would last against them and the guards. Gods this turned into a huge mess… You drop into your aura sight and see that, unlike before and much to your surprise, those that have arisen as undead have had their elemental strengths and weaknesses altered; each and every walking corpse is now strong against black magic, given the pulsing blackness radiating from them, and weak against light magic given the fissures that line their forms. Your thoughts are interrupt, however, as Arlandus waves his hand… and horror is unleashed upon those that defy him – all the undead and guards fall on the defenders, mauling, biting, and rending into those that are helpless, and even those capable of defending themselves. The screams and sight are enough to make you sick… and enough to make you angry as you think that now is the time to act.

Character/Environment Interaction explanation

Spoiler

The Character/Environment Interaction system allows you to interact with the world around you as well as interact with Colette or other characters in the story. Want to have Colette tie her hair up? Then choose this along with the main choices. Want her to stow away a stone, or tie up a bad guy with a rope? Go right ahead! Maybe you're in the middle of a fight and feel that clothing is too cumbersome. You can put on make-up, put clothes on and take clothes off, kick over a bucket, slap a succubus' ass.
Don't go too crazy, though. If it's a bit outlandish then unfortunately I might not be able to use it. Other than that, be creative guys and gals!

Perks/Passives

Spoiler

Magical Sensitivity: Allows you to see magical strengths and weaknesses of beings and certain objects while making your erogenous zones much more sensitive, increasing arousal and pleasure at a faster pace.

Magical Sensitivity (Threads): Thanks to an experiment done by Jazra you can now see the magical threads that are the blood of magic in the world, and can possibly manipulate them.

Source of Energy: Magical monsters and beings that feed from your essence (blood and sexual secretions) gain more energy than normal from you and also suffer a short term power boost.

Essence of Absorption: Thanks to receiving the “essence” of countless individuals many, many times, you have discovered a peculiarity about yourself. You have a certain trait of magical beings and monsters that allows you to absorb the magical energy from sexual secretions, and maybe even blood (?), from people to give yourself some energy and restore your MR. Also, it accelerates your healing slightly and you find you can now sustain yourself wholly off of the essence of others similar to magical beings.

Dancer: Dancing comes naturally to you and, while it may not have uses in combat or when talking to someone, you find you can learn dances by seeing others dance or learning descriptions of dance.

Mental Quickness: You're a quick thinker when it comes to solving problems and smart to boot! If you're in a pinch you can easily notice potential escape routes, item and weapon combinations, optimal tactics to attack and defend in combat, how best to enter a building, etc. (I'll give helpful information and suggestions on how to handle situations, but not too much).

Charismatic: If you've got it, flaunt it! You know you're pretty, and you've always been a leader. You can use your feminine wiles to seduce both men and women alike and persuade them to your line of thinking, or you can use your natural charisma to rally troops into battle and improve morale with your strong words and character! Heck, you could probably charm the doors of Mordor open and simply walk in! (Increase Charm skill by 1 rank, people will like you more, and desire you more, you will be more inspiring to others when you speak, and you’re naturally sexier).

Feedback: When you get too close to rifts there's a chance that you will lose 10 MR and deal minor health damage. Health damage will never kill or knock you out.

Milk Addict: You’ve drunk a lot of milk and you have developed a preference, close to a need, for the thick, creamy substance. You’ll still drink other liquids, but you greatly prefer milk for some reason if given the choice. You’ll find that you have a craving and thirst for milk and, while no negative health effects will occur if you don’t get some, you’ll find that you’ll perform better slightly in all the things you do for a time.

Heart of Gold: You are an extremely kind and caring individual; you absolutely love to help children and those in need. You give of yourself freely to others and ask for nothing in return and always try to be a good person no matter what. You also offer to help, even when it was never asked of you to begin with. Loving and caring is second nature to you; you are compassionate, loving, and serene and as a result more people will like you and it will be easier to charm others because of your gentle and loving nature.

Rift Travel: You have discovered the power, whether from being Rift Touched, the silver bracelet, or a combination of both that you can now travel through rifts to the Rift Plane. The Rift Plane is a pocket dimension where time has no meaning and you cannot die from lack of nutrition; if you leave the Rift Plane time will resume as normal. From the Rift Plane you may travel through other rifts scattered about the pocket dimension that are connected to the real world rifts, allowing you to travel over vast distances so long as you have discovered the rifts for each location. I.E. Say you come into contact with a rift in Kilnhaven, Eborthia and a rift in Lumin, Eborthia. You can jump into the Kilnhaven rift and come out the Lumin rift with virtually no time passing between the two. There are also other rifts that may allow you to gain unique powers if you find them…

Mental Fortitude Expert: As a result of training with Astraea you have developed an expert understanding of shielding your mind against mental probes and attacks, as well as having majorly increased your natural magical reserves in the process. You can withstand basic, mild, and sometimes major levels of mental assaults, but anything higher or prolonged and you will not succeed.

Increased Attraction: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now people find you more attractive than you originally were. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn).

Increased Persuasion: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now you’re slightly more persuasive in conversations. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn)

Quicker Reflexes: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now you have slightly faster reflexes, allowing you to dodge attacks better and avoid danger. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn).

Camouflage: You received a blessing at the temple of Yyssbo on your Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat which allows you to blend in with your surroundings when sneaking and remaining stationary or moving slowly. Any high profile action such as attacking, being attacked and hit, running, being bumped into, etc. will break the effect. Moderately improves sneaking. (Requires Yyssbo Blessed Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat being worn). Not in effect.

Cat Legs: You received a blessing at the temple of Yyssbo on your Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat which allows you to fall from greater distances without taking damage. Falling from roof tops and other moderately high distances will result in no damage taken. Major and Extreme distances will still result in damage or death (Don’t jump off cliffs or off really tall buildings!) (Requires Yyssbo Blessed Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat being worn). Not in effect.

Dual Wielding Master: You have a extreme amount of experience wielding two weapons at once. Dual wielding allows you to attack with two one-handed weapons at once, essentially doubling the damage you do. At present you are extremely skilled and find it easy to hit enemies in combat without any negative effects to your chances to hit. You don’t need any more practice to wield two weapons at once effectively.

Pleasure Resistance Master: You have learned to resist pleasure at a masterful level, and are capable of maintaining your cool under extreme sexual pleasure. However, only the most extremely skilled partners and/or very prolonged pleasure break down your resistance, though you can maintain your cool for a very long period of time.

Dexterity Trained – Flexibility and Ranged Hits: You’ve been trained by Delilah on how to be more dexterous. While it’s not the full dexterity workout, it does allow you to perform hits better with ranged weaponry. You’re also more flexible as a result, just like a gymnast or contortionist!

Blessing of Kramulet: You’ve received a blessing at the temple of Kramulet on yourself, permanently increasing your MR by 30 and gaining the ability to learn magic from magic crystals at a much faster rate than normal.

Blood Magic: You’ve learned to use the dangerous art of blood magic, allowing you to draw on your very life force to cast spells instead of from charges or your magical reserves. Life drained is proportional to the strength of the spell via magical reserves used. The more magic required the more life drained – be warned as this can kill you if you’re not careful!

Evasive Techniques: Delilah of the temple of Domina has taught you the art of evading enemies, both in and outside of combat. Gives a minor boost to dodge and sneak at all times.

True Heart: You’ve completed the trials at the temple of Domina and have found your true heart. Your heart and soul are aligned, which has given you greater confidence, self-assurance, and strength of character. It will be nearly impossible for others to try and change you as a result, unless of course you absolutely want it. Moderate boost to mental fortitude.

Skin-Walker: You’re blessed bodysuit, blessed at the temple of Domina, has seven unique attributes tied to the blessing. On top of being nearly indestructible and capable of keeping you and itself clean. The blessings allow Skin-Walker to become nearly any article of clothing, within reason, changing its shape through your will and imagination. When worn you also receive the boon of increased physical damage resistance (mild), increased magical/elemental damage resistance (mild), increased physical damage dealt (mild), and increased magical damage dealt (minor), your footsteps are completely silent when worn. The final blessing will allow the suit’s power to increase when you sleep with ten different people up to a total of one-hundred different people, but only if suit is worn. (Sex Counter: 31/100) (Requires Skin-Walker being worn)

Increased Health: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit has given you a moderate boost to your natural health, allowing you to take more blows before being killed or knocked out. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Major Barrier of Avoidance: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit has been blessed with a major barrier that warps harmful attacks around you, thus dealing a major blow to enemy hit chances. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Hardiness: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s outfit has been blessed to give you a moderate increase in your resistances against poisons, diseases, and negative status ailments both natural and magical, meaning you’re less likely to contract a disease, be poisoned, or suffer negative status effects during combat. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Majorly Lowered Sexual Inhibitions: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s outfit has been blessed with the effect of lowering your sexual inhibitions when worn, making you much more receptive to sexual advances and making you much more likely to blindly accept such advances regardless of who is making advances, of the time of day, and of where the advances are taking place. Those making such advances will also seem much more attractive to you. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Re: Rift Touched

Sex Perks/Passives

Spoiler

Extreme sexual experience: You’ve had sex many, many times and been in enough sexual situations that you know how to please yourself and pretty much all sexual partners well with extreme skill. You are nearly incapable of being embarrassed by things of a sexual nature and even the most extreme of circumstances won’t make you flinch. You’ve accepted your sexuality entirely and are open to any sexual play of a vanilla nature, and almost all of taboo sexual play as well. Only the absolute most borderline of sexual play and situations will deter you (and if it deters you than it must be pretty wild or terrible!).

Nymphomaniac: You aren’t just a huge slut, you’re a nymphomaniac! It’s a simple fact that you like sex of all kinds, and you yearn for sex. As a result of your extremely sexual ways you have an extremely highly increased sex drive and find that you get aroused very easily, and you think in more sexual ways almost all the time. You also feel no shame at sexual situations, and in fact you will crave sex and be ready for sex at any time.

Enhanced Arousal: As a result of your extreme sexual ways and the constant sex you’ve been having, and maybe as a result of the tentacle pod, you find that you are much more easily aroused and that you think about and want sex more often than ever. When not otherwise preoccupied i.e. fighting, exercising, training, etc. you’ll think about sex and become aroused. Better get laid fast or masturbate before it becomes a problem!

Vaginal Experience: You have extreme amounts of experience with vaginal sex and feel right at home with being penetrated. You can receive a great deal of pleasure, and give pleasure in return to any sexual partner penetrating you. With so much use of your vagina you have developed a tendency for it and love to have sex using your main sexual organ. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Cervix Penetration: As a result of having so much sex with your vagina you are now capable of having your cervix penetrated, which will also give you and your partner a great deal of pleasure.

Vaginal Vibrations: You’ve become very attuned to your vagina, what with all the sex you’ve been having using it. As a result you can now control the muscles of your vaginal walls, to an extent, and vibrate them slightly to increase the pleasure both you and your penetrating partner feel.

Magical Vagina: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving vaginal pleasure: The Magical Vagina (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at using your main sex organ and are so in tune with your love tunnel that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your passage that enhances the pleasure you can give and receive when being penetrated. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Altered Vagina: You have had your vagina altered so that you are always tight no matter what. Not only that, but when you are penetrated vaginally your vagina will mold itself to the penetrating object which makes you a perfect fit for anything and also greatly increasing the pleasure you and your partner both feel.

Vaginal Fixation: You’ve developed a bit of a vaginal fixation with all the “objects” going into your love tunnel all the time. As a result you like having things inside your pussy and, when you do, you find that you will perform slightly better in all things that you do. You’ll also find that you’re vagina will be wet more often than not when not in life threatening situations.

Anal: You have an extreme amount of experience using your anus when it comes to sex and as a result you can receive a great deal of pleasure from using it and know how to please your sexual partners very, very well with it. As a result of your continued anal play you find that you absolutely love using your anus during sex and have developed a tendency for it, loving to have your anus used during sex. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Anal Vice: Your love of anal sex has helped you develop a sexual technique that will allow you to clamp down onto a penetrating object using your anus, increasing the tightness of your already tight hole. This increases your pleasure and the pleasure of those who penetrate you using your anus.

Anal Acceptance: You can take small to large objects up your butt with ease and no need for foreplay. Your altered anus allows you to now take on extra-large objects with no need for foreplay, meaning any size will work!

Magical Anus: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving anal pleasure: The Magical Anus (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at using your backdoor and are so in tune with your bum that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your anus that enhances the pleasure you can give and receive when being penetrated. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Anal Fixation: You’ve developed a bit of an anal fixation with all the “objects” going into your backdoor as of late. As a result you like having things up your butt and, when you do, you find that you will perform slightly better in all things that you do. You’ll also use your anus when masturbating as well from now on.

Altered Anus: You’ve had your anus altered allowing you to take most objects up your butt with ease and no need for foreplay. You also have a larger behind as a result.

Oral: You’re the best at using your mouth to please your sexual partners. So good, in fact, that you can bring any sexual partners to orgasm very quickly using your masterful techniques. You also find that you can’t get enough of using your mouth during sex and have developed an oral fixation. You love giving head and having something in your mouth and down your throat. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Cum Addict: You love, bordering on needing, the taste of cum and you can’t get enough of being covered in cum as a result of your constant oral performances and situations where you have been climaxed on. You love to drink down cum whether it is semen, female ejaculate, or some other sexual fluid and you love to be covered in it. You will find that you will have a thirst and craving for cum and, while no negative health effects will happen if you don’t get it, you will find that you perform slightly better in all the things you do for a time when you get it.

Oral Vacuum: With your superior oral skills you have learned how to increase the pleasure of those lucky enough to be on the receiving end of your work. You’re able to use the vibrations from your mouth and throat while simultaneously increasing the pressure and tightness of your mouth to bring extreme pleasure to an individual, bringing them to climax in a matter of seconds.

Magical Mouth: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving oral pleasure: The Magical Mouth (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at giving head and are so in tune with your mouth that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your mouth that enhance the pleasure you can give both when giving head or kissing. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Oral Fixation: You’ve developed an oral fixation with all the “things” you’ve been sucking on, licking, and putting in your mouth. As a result you will put things in your mouth and suck on them, such as your fingers, or chew on things, such as quills or small objects.

Breast Play: You love breasts; they’re simply wonderful bags of fun. You like to suck on them, drink from them, snuggle up to them, and play with them. You also like having your own played with and have even learned how to use them to please your sexual partners.

Lactation: Your breasts can now lactate thanks to an alteration you had done at the temple of Domina. Your breasts are now larger and are capable of producing milk if sucked on or if brought to orgasm, and the supply will never run out for long if drained.

Titjob Professional: You’ve learned how to give expert titjobs as a result of your love for using them during sex! As a result you can now bring your partners to climax easily with using only your tits!

Boob Fascination: You love breasts so much that you are completely fascinated by them! When given the chance, you’ll be a real pervert and try to grope and play with breasts! Sometimes it might be your own, and sometimes it might be someone else’s! You’re smart, however, and won’t try to do it so blatantly in public…unless a particularly delicious pair of breasts are presented to you!

Boob-gasms: It turns out that your enhanced sensitivity makes it so you can have orgasms just from breasts stimulation alone. Isn’t that nifty?

Ear-gasms: Your natural heightened sensitivity allows you to have orgasms from having only your half-elf ears stimulated. Weird.

Ass-gasms: Because of your increased natural sensitivity you find that you can receive orgasms solely from having your anus played with or penetrated. Who needs pesky vaginas anyways?

No gag-reflex: Thanks to Lula’s help you know how to properly control your gag reflex, allowing you to deep throat with ease, or put other large objects down your throat.

Voyeurism: You watched other people have sex from a distance and you really, really like it. You like watching others have sex and get highly aroused by the act. You’re close enough that you might be considered a peeping tom!

Exhibitionism: You have bared yourself in all manner of situations and you love to expose your body. You feel absolutely no shame from the act, and in fact you rather enjoy it and prefer walking around in barely any clothing or none at all.

Exhibitionist at Heart: You love exposing yourself a whole lot. You’ve done it so much and like it just as much that you feel completely confident exposing yourself no matter what. In fact, if you don’t wear scant clothing or nothing at all then you just don’t feel right. While nude or in scant attire you’ll find that you’re more charming, more aroused, and people and enemies are more distracted.

Less is More: You absolutely love showing yourself off, and as an unexpected result you find that when you wear nothing at all, or very little, that you can move and dodge attacks slightly better than when covered in less revealing outfits.

Exhibitionistic Power: There’s nothing wrong at all with your body, or anyone else’s for that matter, and you love to show it off to others! You also don’t really like clothing all that much and prefer to be naked, or wearing hardly anything, if at all possible. You won’t suffer any negative consequences if you are clothed, but when you aren’t wearing any clothing, or very little, then you’ll find that you can focus better. You’ll find that, with your better focus, you’ll be better at virtually everything you do by a small margin. Now get out there and flaunt what you’ve got!

Woman Lover: You love being with women…in more ways than one, and have learned how to please women extremely well and you know what women want. As a result, when having sex with women you can bring them greater pleasure. You can also charm and seduce women better, and you may even be able to seduce women that might not usually want to be with another woman.

Humiliation: You have been in degrading and humiliating situations and have had degrading and humiliating things happen to you, whether from extreme situations or over time, and as a result you derive great pleasure and arousal from being degraded and humiliated. You also find that you like to degrade and humiliate others in various ways, though not as strongly as being humiliated yourself.

Coarser Language (sex only): As a result of the dirty talk and humiliation you’ve endured and dished out, you now find that you talk a little coarser, but only during sexual situations. Nothing too bad, a fuck here, a shit there, but nothing too over the top or outside sexual situations. If you continue, then you might find yourself cursing like a sailor before long…

Bondage Submissive: You’ve been bound and had sex with one or more dominant partners many times, and perhaps in extreme circumstances, and as a result you find you love to be in submissive bondage roles. You will always prefer to be tied up in nearly any bondage situation and will comply with the demands of more dominant sexual partners easily when tied up, and you may even comply with some submissive partners as well. It’s in its complete stage; there’s no going back for you. If you’re tied up or there’s an option to be tied up, then you will always take it and be as submissive as possible.

Bound Arousal: You’ve been tied up a whole lot before and as a result you find that you’re more easily aroused and you have a higher sex drive when tied up. Works in tandem with other arousal and libido altering perks and effects.

Bondage Submissive’s Sixth Sense: You’ve developed a sort of sixth sense when it comes to being tied up in regards to your more dominant partner. Whenever you’re tied up you instinctually know what your dominant partner desires, and you will act accordingly to bring them the most pleasure possible.

Bondage Submissive’s Place: You’ve been tied up so much, and loving every second of it of course, that whenever you’re tied up from now on any and all sexual partners, whether dominant or submissive, will have total control of you. You realize that, when tied up, you feel happy and you give up control and agency of yourself to better serve those around you – you will comply with nearly all demands of your sexual partners and do as they please when tied up, bring them greater pleasure as well as yourself.

Submissive Bondage Trained: Delilah of the temple of Domina has taught you how to be the very best bondage submissive that you can be! Whenever you’re tied up you’ll automatically become extremely submissive, meek, obedient, be willing to serve other’s needs, and be ordered around without complaint…because you’ll love it so much!

Switch-Extreme Dominant (Normal): You have been both submissive and dominant in sexual situations and are capable of being one or the other should the situation call for it. However, you very much prefer being the dominant and have developed your dominance so that you can more easily make others comply with you. You are capable of dominating truly dominant, neutral, and submissive people – truly dominant people are much less troublesome now and the only way you’ll ever be submissive outside of bondage situations is if you allow it; you cannot be forced to be submissive.

Dominant Personality Plus: You’ve been dominant a whole lot lately, and as a result you’ve developed a sort of natural dominant personality. You’ll be much more dominant than those around you at all times, and more forceful and demanding of those around you, but not cruelly so thanks to your heart of gold.

Submissive’s Dominant: You might not be the most dominant person around, but you’ve found that with the right attitude you can dominant submissive people regardless of your own preference. With this you can exert your will on more submissive individuals and make them comply with your wishes both in and out of sex.

Unbridled Will: You are a dominant person, and as a result of your dominance your will has increased to fiery proportions. You will find that your mental fortitude is increased slightly as a result of your dominant independence, and that you have a much easier time dominating dominant individuals. Also, you have a bit of a fiery personality that shows itself from time to time.

Slut Trained: You’ve learned from the best resident slut at the temple of Domina on how to be a better slut! As a result you now act generally sluttier and suggestive in almost all situations and go out of your way to tease everyone around you, on top of thinking more about sex. You also have more stamina and endurance when it comes to sex before wearing out. Also, you may find that certain individuals are more forthcoming when you speak to them.

Permanent Sway: Thanks to Helena’s so called “Slut Training” you’ve learned how to act sexier and sluttier. As a result, you find that swaying your hips provocatively comes as second nature to you and you now have a permanent sway to your steps as a result. This’ll be sure to turn heads!

Slightly Lowered Inhibitions: Your inhibitions are lowered slightly thanks to your actions and you find that you don’t mind people getting “touchy” with you in intimate ways, so long as it’s not too extreme.

Sexual Preference: Bisexual – Lesbian: You identify yourself as a bisexual, though with more lesbian tendencies. You aren’t entirely sure if you’re truly lesbian, though you prefer to be sexually active with women more than men, and as a result you will find that you find women much more attractive and men less so. This includes futa individuals or those that identify as female.

Re: Rift Touched

E1, use Magical Suppression on Arlandus to prevent him from using any of his magic during this encounter.

To do so, either remaining silent and maintain relative innocence as you approach him to give him the impression you're joining him - or outright fake F if necessary - in order to get close enough to do E1.

After that...dunno. I guess either stab him with our knife or capture him or something.

Agreed. Activate centered soul at the same time though. He probably has some debuff reduction gear or something on him.

In awe you smile at him and carress his face. You then cast magical suppression (E1), twist his arm, grab his staff (C) and hit him in the crotch with it.

Re: Rift Touched

Spoiler

E1 and E2 and fake F and, while I couldn’t get what you wanted in exactly nightshade99, I hope that a certain scene will help “appease” a certain desire for some “ball-breaking” action!

Also, a certain writer of a certain story that I find very, very good has just completed an arc in their own story on this board and has written a summary of the events that have taken place thus far. Here's the introduction, I'm sure you'll like it! I know I absolutely love the story and I guarantee that if you like reading the little adventure I write, then you'll definitely like his... hers... its(?) story! Skip to the last page to get to the summary if you aren't quite sure about it, but it's definitely worth the read.

~
12:52 pm

With no time to lose in the chaos before you, you quickly devise a plan that you hope will pay off and save many lives as quickly as possible, not least of all yours considering eventually you figure that Arlandus will see through your charade. The number one problem in the room, bar none, is Arlandus – he wields the most power by far and with his ability to command the undead and his personal entourage he needs to be dealt with first, chiefly his magic… and then his life. When Arlandus gazes out into the chaos with glee as the room is filled with screams of agony and death, the wails of undead, and the symphony of battle you take the opportunity to do a quick mental check and go over your plan before steeling yourself for what is to come. You take a deep breath of air before scooting closer to Arlandus just as he starts to chuckle darkly, sending shivers up and down your spine whilst raising the hairs along your neck. “M-my lord” you utter out meekly, causing Arlandus to turn to you and, despite all his evil and malice before, he actually smiles quite warmly at you and seems interested in what you have to say. “Yes, young Catherine, what is it?” he asks rather nonchalantly, a stark contrast to the situation before him – “U-um, my lord Arlandus, while I do not doubt you… this frightens me. Will you hold me closer, my lord? I would love to rule by your side… b-but…” you say in your best performed voice of submissiveness while appearing frightened… isn’t far from the truth all things considered as you hear the death throes of some hapless man as you briefly look out below to see someone fall underneath half a dozen undead, the sounds of rending flesh and him choking on blood soon follow. “Hush, Catherine, let me shield you from this” the tyrant says in again a surprisingly sympathetic and concerned voice as he strides closer to you, his six foot frame towering over you as he reaches out with his right hand and cups underneath your chin, raising your face to look him in his dark eyes. You let out a sigh of contentment as your insides roll at his touch, and then you bring your hands up to his and…

“Arlandus! Move out of the way! You will answer for your crimes with blood!” the familiar voice of Koren booms out behind you – you look back and see that Koren has pulled himself away from the two knights tasked with guarding him and his mother – who is screaming for his son to come back - and is charging, shortsword in both hands, towards you and Arlandus in a mad sprint. Arlandus scoffs and raises his staff as he glows in a bright black light, still gently cupping your cheek with the intent of killing the young noble without a second thought. Dammit, couldn’t stay still for a moment longer could you? Alright, time to do this! you think as you quickly bring both your hands up to his and, dropping into your aura sight, you both spot and “feel” where the threads in his body are and, choosing a few at random, you gather your own magic and transfer them into the glow streams the lie just beneath the surface, plugging them and stopping the flow entirely. The effects are instantaneous as Arlandus immediately stops glowing, as does his staff, and he screams in surprise while recoiling from you. He stumbles backwards and looks dumbfounded at his own hand, which is shaking, before looking up at you with utter confusion and disbelief. “W-what have you done? M-my magic… I can’t feel my magic! Tell me what you did?! Tell me?!” Arlandus says shakily, before it turns to an angry command, and then a hysterical scream that makes you so very happy. You look over your shoulder quickly and see that Koren, who’s stopped charging and is perhaps a few feet from you, Glethal, and the two shielded guards staring in confusion at Arlandus – you quickly bend down and reach under your dress, snaking your hand up and pulling your dagger from your thigh before drawing it openly at Arlandus. “Nothing much; just a little trick I learned a little while ago. And my name’s not Catherine, and I most definitely do not want to be by your side, ‘my lord’” you say tauntingly before charging Arlandus. You only take a few steps, closing the short distance between you both, before you’re surprised when you see something shimmering behind Arlandus… something small, perhaps a little over five feet tall, that seems to blend into the background with the only hint of it being there being a mirage-like effect. However, a moment later and you smile when Arlandus screams in pain when you watch the figure seem to leap up before whatever spell was cast breaks, revealing the newly blonde Nyx on Arlandus’ back with two wicked looking curved daggers planted in either of his shoulders as she rides him.

You watch the slightly comical performance as Arlandus flails about with his arms, trying to reach behind his back and shake himself to dislodge Nyx, who’s gold dress waves slightly from the movements as she continues to stab into the flesh of Arlandus repeatedly, drawing copious amounts of blood that spray out from every withdrawal and stain his robes and Nyx’s daggers. “Get him, Nyx!” you yell as you pump your fist into the air, but all too soon the small victory is shattered as Arlandus does something wholly unexpected. “What?! How can he-?!” you start to say loudly, angrily, as you watch Arlandus’ staff glow in a semi-bright violet light, and then a violet bubble bursts from the end of the staff which literally blows Nyx off of Arlandus’ back, and you watch as she sails a good fifteen feet in the air directly behind Arlandus, hitting the ground hard and skidding on her back as she releases a harsh exhalation of air before she tumbles backwards and skids along her short heels, glaring up in astonishment and pain just as she lightly bumps against the far wall – Arlandus, for his part, drops to one knee and pants raggedly as he bleeds profusely, looking up at you with unfocused eyes as he continues to lose precious blood and most likely has enough holes in his shoulders to rival that of certain cheeses. Still, he amazes you yet again when he manages to speak to you in a pained breaths. “W-why… who are you? W-what… what did you do to me? I… you… you poisoned me, didn’t you; I… I wouldn’t have done…? Oh… I’ll make you pay” he says sinisterly as his staff starts to glow in a very bright gold light, and you take the opportunity to drop into your aura sight. What you see startles you, as it wasn’t there the last time you gazed upon it in your second vision – you see it pulsing brightly in a cacophony of colors and, while Arlandus’ own body, namely the threads, cease circulating magic that staff of his has some of their own. You watch as the threads in the staff seem to run along its shape, almost as if it’s a living being, before it releases a nearly blinding gold light – you watch as the magic absorbs into Arlandus in your aura sight before the staff returns to normal. Returning to your normal vision you watch as Arlandus groans, and then sighs in relief before slowly rising to his feet, his wounds seemingly closed.

“You face a master, you conniving bitch. I won’t be bested so easily, and when I defeat you I promise I will find out who you are, what you did to me, and how you did it… very painfully I might add. And then I will relish torturing you every day for the rest of your miserable life” Arlandus spits out at you. That staff of his seems to be almost… alive, as if it has a will of its own. More likely Arlandus tied it to his will somehow and enchanted it to supplement his own reserves should they fail, which means he can still cast magic. Still, it means he won’t be casting any magic directly, but rather through his weapon… which is still a troubling thought. It looks like I might be in for the fight of my life, so I guess there’s no reason to hold back… and I guess everyone will know something’s definitely off about me shortly you think as you see someone out of the corner of your eye. “Who are you?” Koren asks warily as he holds his blade out in front of him at Arlandus, though he is quite wary of you if his features are any indication. You smile lightly and, without looking at him, you say “A friend, and someone who’s been looking forward to bringing the good advisor to justice for a little while now. Oh, by the way, I would hang onto something if I were you”. You grip your dagger in your right hand backhanded before kicking off your heels and imagining Skin-Walker into a more combat appropriate guise, having it cover your stocking covered feet and down to your arms whilst leaving your head exposed and your hair flowing freely. You don’t even give Koren a chance to react before you’re off like lightning, rushing Arlandus as fast as you can muster as you draw upon the calm center you’ve used only twice before. “Foolish girl! Don’t you know better than to rush a mage?! I will make you suffer!” Arlandus yells as he raises his staff up at you and starts to glow in a bright blue light – you, however, count down the distance between the two of you, which is only about fifteen feet, biding your time for the perfect moment to strike. As your red hair blows behind you and you close in, Arlandus looks nearly ready to unleash his spell as he yells “Stupid girl – suffer before m- aaaargh?!” When you’re about ten feet away you tap into the power that you gained at the temple of Domina and unleash a shockwave that knocks back Arlandus, causing him to fall back onto his ass and slide across the ground as he tries to use his staff to steady himself and gain some traction, ultimately failing as the staff clanks along the stone and grinds against it with a terrible scratching sound that pierces your ears. You don’t relent, however, and, with your eyes glowing brighter than emeralds in sunlight and moving faster than any ordinary creature should be capable of, you pump your legs with all your might, slightly hindered due to the dress, towards Arlandus as he slides along the ground.

You’re upon the evil man in an instant just as he comes to a halt a few feet from Nyx as you glance at her, seeing the awe written upon her face, before turning your attention back towards Arlandus just as he grunts and starts to get back to his feet. He barely manages to see you coming and brings his staff up just in time as you bring your right knee up, fully intending to break his long nose – you curse inwardly and adjust quick enough so that you don’t ram your knee into his metal staff, causing you to tumble over him, rolling on the stone floor closer to Nyx, who seems dumbfounded and can barely keep up, and quickly turning on your knees to face Arlandus, who’s still moving far too slow for you as you watch him painfully get to his feet while keeping his head turned towards you. You see that his staff is glowing in a semi-bright blue light, and you know he fully intends to use ice magic against you, perhaps to slow you down, so you again rush him, launching yourself forward with both of your hands while still gripping your dagger. “What are yo- ARGH!” Arlandus screams in vain as he pushes himself upright and partly turns to face you fully… just in time for you to close the short distance between the two of you and plunge your dagger into the side of his robe. You grit your teeth and grunt as you look up to face Arlandus, astonished at how much force you have to use to push your dagger through his robes even with your special abilities, meaning that his robes are most likely enchanted to resist such damage – even more is you only feel your blade barely pushed into his skin before you feel some magical force pushing your blade out. “Wha- kuk!” you start to say in surprise before your air is cut off when you feel Arlandus’ right hand at your throat… and then by some means he manages to lift you up off your feet – you cough and sputter as you try to tear his hand away with your left while you kick your feet, which are about two feet off the ground. “What are you?! Are you a demon whore summoned from the hells?!” Arlandus roars at you, some saliva hitting you in the face as he curses at you – you look him defiantly in his dark green eyes and watch as he brings his staff up with his left hand, aiming it at your chest, intending to impale you with it. You grab his arm tightly and press both your feet against him before bringing your right foot up with a coughing sputtering, driving the heel of your foot up and against his nose. Arlandus yelps in pain and drops you, and you land on your feet and swerve to the left just in time to avoid the black tip and other crystals of his staff – “No, but I’m still going to beat you senseless!” you roar as the old man clutches his nose with his free hand, which is bleeding, and stumbles back. You follow up your attack with another swipe of your dagger at his midsection as you charge forward, but despite his wound Arlandus is surprisingly quick on his feet and sidesteps your attack whilst swiping at the back of your head with his staff, which connects painfully with the back of your head and sends you stumbling forward as pain surges down your neck and you feel slightly dazed from the blow.

“Julian, Yasha, to me; we must defeat Arlandus!” Koren yells as you stumble forward slightly, and you look up to see the concern and anger on his face as he sees you hurt. He looks back and issues the order to his guards who seem reluctant at first, which causes him to roar again “Do you intend to let this man take your lives? The lives of everyone here? The lives of the ones you love and have sworn to protect?! We must stop him now!” His last statement seems to embolden the two knights and, with a last bit of reluctance and a look back at Glethal, they step forward with their shields raised and the swords out in front of them as they move to flank either side of Koren. At least I’m not alone in this. I wonder which one is Julian and which one is Yasha? I can’t see anything passed those helmets you think with relief before turning back towards Arlandus just as he booms out to the crowd, the sounds of battle and screams of pain and anger filling the room and nearly drowning at his voice. “What are you whelps just standing around for?! Come and defend your master, useless minions!” At Arlandus’ command, three of his six guards immediately stop what they were doing and turn to face their master – one was even about to perform the killing blow on one of the rugged look warrior emissaries, yet stopped just inches before cleaving into the burly man’s skull. Each of them then rushes through the crowd, knocking over friend and foe alike as they make their way towards the front of the room towards their master… and you. Apparently Nyx is not one to stand around and wait for death as you watch her come over her initial shock and grab her two wicked blades before you hear her casting some sort of miracle, and again you can’t understand the words as they come to your ears distant and distorted while she glows brightly. “Oh, it seems we have a follower of some god or another” Arlandus bellows out a laughter as he turns to Nyx, raising his staff at the stocky dwarf woman as his weapon glows in an aqua light “Your god can’t save you from me, dwarf! I’ll make you regret your ancestor’s decision to ever leave their damnable caves in the dirt where they belong!” Nyx continues to chant at a feverish pace as Arlandus’ staff glows ever more brightly in an aqua hue, yet before he can do anything Nyx finishes her chanting and releases a bright ball of light that hurtles towards Arlandus’ feet… and turns black as the void itself just before it slams into the ground. The entire area is immediately shrouded in an un-penetrating darkness – you can’t even see in front of your face, and apparently neither can Arlandus or anyone else as you hear his voice boom out in a tantrum “Aaargh! You think this will stop me?! I’m getting tired of these games! Face me cowards!”

Dang, now I can’t see anything! What were you thinking, Nyx? you think before you get low on the ground and crawl forward towards where you last spotted Arlandus. You yelp in surprise when you feel a hand on your back, and instinctively bring your dagger up to defend yourself, but a familiar voice eases your mind. “It’s me, Colette” Nyx’s voice whispers into your ears “I don’t know how you did that, but we don’t have much time. Arlandus is more powerful than I thought, and that dagger of yours won’t do much against him. Take one of mine; it’s blessed by Yyssbo and should provide more than enough bite to harm hi-“. Nyx never finishes her sentence as a brilliant white light erupts a few feet away from you, blinding you and Nyx momentarily – you close your eyes instinctively and blink a few times, just enough to hear Nyx scream in pain. You snap your eyes open fully and find Nyx lying beside you, blood oozing from her face along with a pair of boots in front of you. “Stupid woman! A little darkness is no match for me! Now… time to die!” Arlandus says as he brings his staff up and holds it in both of his hands, intending to use the white crystal on the bottom as a spear to end Nyx’s life. “Shut up already!” you scream as you clutch your dagger and, with your superior speed, you bring it up and then down through the top of his boot. The howl that Arlandus releases from his mouth is both gut-wrenching and satisfying as it conveys his pain clearly for all to hear, yet you don’t stop there as you pull your dagger from his boot, earning another scream of pain as blood trickles down your blade. “Stupid bit-!” the evil magister storms out, but you cut him off as you bound to your feet quickly and, with your left hand curled into a fist, you roar out a battle cry and throw a fierce uppercut with all of your might… right in the family jewels. You feel your fist connect with his silky soft robes and travel towards his groin, and you feel your fist connect with something soft and sac-like. You look up into Arlandus’ eyes with a smug grin on your face as his own mouth gapes open and his eyes are wide, the only sounds coming from him being a few squeaks of air. Despite the enchantments, the big talk, and the evil this man has wrought, this expression on his face at this moment, the face of shock, pain, disbelief, and those few comical squeaks will forever remain in your mind.

Arlandus stumbles backwards as he struggles for air, hunched over in pain as he places his free hand over his damaged goods and, if you hadn’t been so focused on this small victory, you might have noticed his staff glowing in a semi-bright blue light. A moment later and he points his staff at you and, as it glows blue, the staff releases its own pent up magic in the form of a cone of cold directly at you. You curse loudly and try to doge back and out of the way, but too late; you scream in pain as the icy spray sends cold fire traveling up your body, creeping up your feet and over Xillia’s red shimmering dress, freezing part of your body to the floor that you lie on as it continues upward and ends at your midsection. You will Skin-Walker over your face now that things are serious, pain shooting up from your feet, legs, and around your groin and stomach as the icy fire burns you fiercely and your teeth clatter. T-that’s s-so cold…! you think as you lie on your stomach, frozen to the ground. “Colette, take this!” Nyx yells at you, and you whip your head over your right shoulder in time to see her toss one of her daggers along the stone floor at you – it takes only but a moment for the blade to reach you and, switching your own dagger into your left hand, you quickly swipe it up with your right. You don’t waste a moment to turn, rather awkwardly you might add, and bring the blade down on the ice that roots you to the floor. It takes only two quick stabs at the ice to shatter the entirety of the spell before you scramble forward just in time to be met with one of Arlandus’ guards coming up the stairs to your left, his greatsword coming up diagonally at you as you stumble. You try to move out of the way as you see it coming, yelling in surprise, and then in pain as you manage to escape the severity of the blow, but still it manages to graze along your left side up to your right breast. The attack, coupled with the partially frozen state of Xillia’s dress, ruins the material as the ice and blow from the blade shatters portions of the dress below your breasts, and the midsection and bosom portion are more or less torn to ribbons; the only pieces left of the fine cloth are pieces of the back, the straps, and portions of the front of your breasts. You tumble to the side away from the guard as you clutch your left side with your dagger wielding hand as Skin-Walker reseals itself over the wound, which trickles blood from the bottom of your left side over to just below your right breast, barely damaging your sheer Lequis blessed bra.

Dammit! If I was so powered up right now and if not for Skin-Walker then I wouldn’t be doing so well. Still, I got a few good blows on Arlandus – Oh hells!

You pant and put some distance between you and the greatsword wielding minion of Arlandus as you see the mages staff glow in a golden light before it releases its magics, which wash over the magister and heal the wounds that were inflicted upon him. You quickly drop into your aura sight and see the staff dim in colors… and you see the threads slow down; slower than they were the last time. Good gods… I think his staff is running out of reserves. It… still looks like it has a decent amount left, but it’s definitely losing some juice with every spell. Still, it’s a good thing that Arlandus can’t call upon his own reserves or else this would have been much, much worse you think as you hear cries of battle and the clang of metal on metal, this time much closer. You look over passed the thrones to see two more of Arlandus’ guards ascend the stairs, which are intercepted by Julian and Yasha, whichever one they are, who have their shields raised to meet the blows of the offenders. You watch as both the knights deflect the blows and return them in kind, with one of the knights managing to strike their longsword against the helmet of one of the minions, knocking it off… to reveal a malnourished and gaunt looking orc underneath that looks to have been long dead for some time. Now things make a little more sense… you think as you watch Koren rush to the aid of the knights, and to his helpless mother as she tries to help, only for her son to push her back and out of harm’s way. You also watch Nyx rise to her feet and grip her other dagger with her left hand as she eyes Arlandus from behind, who in turn is eying you with equal parts hatred and lust as he looks upon your form, Skin-Walker tightly clinging to your skin and, if not for your undergarments, you would be basically naked. You think you can use that fact to your advantage as you bring your hand underneath your bosom and tear away the remaining cloth, catching your magic crystals and putting them closer to Skin-Walker before you will it over the crystals, engulfing them into the fabric and closer to your body so that you can still use their magics.

Too bad I can’t distract the undead this way… but something is better than nothing.

You quickly look over the dagger in your right hand, Nyx’s dagger, and note that the grip is bound in a deep, dark leather and the metal of the blade itself is black as night. The blade is seven inches long with serrations along the first two inches of the blade as it curves up at a crescent point – definitely something that would deal a good amount of damage, especially if used as a stabbing tool. However, now is not the time to worry about your wardrobe or your new toy – you’re now faced with three more threats on top of Arlandus and his dwindling supply of magic, thanks to robbing him of his earlier, forcing him to rely on his enchantments instead. Still, he’s healed up and now he has backup.

Re: Rift Touched

What do I do? His guards are a serious threat, being undead, but also weak to white magic. Thank the gods I brought my white magic crystal with me or else I would be in a much worse position. I could focus on the guards, this one or the other two, but that would leave Arlandus free to do as he pleases. Nyx could probably distract him, but his attention seems so focused on me, especially now that Xillia’s dress is gone, that I doubt it would do any good. Or… or I could jump into the crowd and help deal with the mass of undead and defectors and try to rally the rest of the people, especially Hera and Yunlya. Their help would turn the tide, but again that would leave Arlandus alone with Nyx, Koren, Glethal, Julian, and Yasha… not to mention he could easily use his more devastating spells on the crowd as a whole since I don’t think he really cares about his new “subjects”. Gods… this is a mess. At least I have the dagger Nyx gave me; it looks like it can cut through steel and if it’s blessed by Yyssbo for the Living Shadow herself, the head of one of his temples and one of his greatest disciples, then there’s no telling how strong this blade really is. Well, no telling until it’s put to use that is.

“Use the blade, Colette! Use the power of Yyssbo!” Nyx’s voice cuts through your thoughts like a knife and you snap your head to turn to her as she looks at you before a moment later she tosses her other dagger into her right hand, brings it up, and you watch in awe as it glows a deep black… and then she cuts down. The cut goes from above her head down to her feet, and you watch in awe as you see some sort of thin, black line appear out of nowhere from where she cut… and then, like drapes in the wind, the cut widens to reveal a black void of nothingness. From this nothingness emerges a single entity of pure darkness that both has no shadow, and seems to absorb no light… and this shade looks exactly like Nyx, from her clothes, her dagger, her heels, and every fine feature of her body except she’s totally black as the darkest of moonless nights, and she – it – brings up it’s dagger and looks ready to fight. You don’t know how you’re able to perceive any sort of curvature or distinguish any feature of this shadow, but somehow you can. “Colette? That is the second time I have heard that name… is it yours, my strange little girl with the red hair and the glowing eyes? Now I know the name of the one I will make suffer beyond her wildest nightmares”. Arlandus’ voice is like daggers in your mind as he says your name, and you can’t help but scowl beneath your mask.

This changes things. With this I might be able to stand a much better chance; perhaps I can use this shade to distract the other guard, or go for an all-out assault on the bastard. Mmm, but it does feel nice to finally… let loose after being so confined for so long and things so much “clearer”.

Character/Environment Interaction explanation

Spoiler

The Character/Environment Interaction system allows you to interact with the world around you as well as interact with Colette or other characters in the story. Want to have Colette tie her hair up? Then choose this along with the main choices. Want her to stow away a stone, or tie up a bad guy with a rope? Go right ahead! Maybe you're in the middle of a fight and feel that clothing is too cumbersome. You can put on make-up, put clothes on and take clothes off, kick over a bucket, slap a succubus' ass.
Don't go too crazy, though. If it's a bit outlandish then unfortunately I might not be able to use it. Other than that, be creative guys and gals!

Perks/Passives

Spoiler

Magical Sensitivity: Allows you to see magical strengths and weaknesses of beings and certain objects while making your erogenous zones much more sensitive, increasing arousal and pleasure at a faster pace.

Magical Sensitivity (Threads): Thanks to an experiment done by Jazra you can now see the magical threads that are the blood of magic in the world, and can possibly manipulate them.

Source of Energy: Magical monsters and beings that feed from your essence (blood and sexual secretions) gain more energy than normal from you and also suffer a short term power boost.

Essence of Absorption: Thanks to receiving the “essence” of countless individuals many, many times, you have discovered a peculiarity about yourself. You have a certain trait of magical beings and monsters that allows you to absorb the magical energy from sexual secretions, and maybe even blood (?), from people to give yourself some energy and restore your MR. Also, it accelerates your healing slightly and you find you can now sustain yourself wholly off of the essence of others similar to magical beings.

Dancer: Dancing comes naturally to you and, while it may not have uses in combat or when talking to someone, you find you can learn dances by seeing others dance or learning descriptions of dance.

Mental Quickness: You're a quick thinker when it comes to solving problems and smart to boot! If you're in a pinch you can easily notice potential escape routes, item and weapon combinations, optimal tactics to attack and defend in combat, how best to enter a building, etc. (I'll give helpful information and suggestions on how to handle situations, but not too much).

Charismatic: If you've got it, flaunt it! You know you're pretty, and you've always been a leader. You can use your feminine wiles to seduce both men and women alike and persuade them to your line of thinking, or you can use your natural charisma to rally troops into battle and improve morale with your strong words and character! Heck, you could probably charm the doors of Mordor open and simply walk in! (Increase Charm skill by 1 rank, people will like you more, and desire you more, you will be more inspiring to others when you speak, and you’re naturally sexier).

Feedback: When you get too close to rifts there's a chance that you will lose 10 MR and deal minor health damage. Health damage will never kill or knock you out.

Milk Addict: You’ve drunk a lot of milk and you have developed a preference, close to a need, for the thick, creamy substance. You’ll still drink other liquids, but you greatly prefer milk for some reason if given the choice. You’ll find that you have a craving and thirst for milk and, while no negative health effects will occur if you don’t get some, you’ll find that you’ll perform better slightly in all the things you do for a time.

Heart of Gold: You are an extremely kind and caring individual; you absolutely love to help children and those in need. You give of yourself freely to others and ask for nothing in return and always try to be a good person no matter what. You also offer to help, even when it was never asked of you to begin with. Loving and caring is second nature to you; you are compassionate, loving, and serene and as a result more people will like you and it will be easier to charm others because of your gentle and loving nature.

Rift Travel: You have discovered the power, whether from being Rift Touched, the silver bracelet, or a combination of both that you can now travel through rifts to the Rift Plane. The Rift Plane is a pocket dimension where time has no meaning and you cannot die from lack of nutrition; if you leave the Rift Plane time will resume as normal. From the Rift Plane you may travel through other rifts scattered about the pocket dimension that are connected to the real world rifts, allowing you to travel over vast distances so long as you have discovered the rifts for each location. I.E. Say you come into contact with a rift in Kilnhaven, Eborthia and a rift in Lumin, Eborthia. You can jump into the Kilnhaven rift and come out the Lumin rift with virtually no time passing between the two. There are also other rifts that may allow you to gain unique powers if you find them…

Mental Fortitude Expert: As a result of training with Astraea you have developed an expert understanding of shielding your mind against mental probes and attacks, as well as having majorly increased your natural magical reserves in the process. You can withstand basic, mild, and sometimes major levels of mental assaults, but anything higher or prolonged and you will not succeed.

Increased Attraction: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now people find you more attractive than you originally were. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn).

Increased Persuasion: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now you’re slightly more persuasive in conversations. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn)

Quicker Reflexes: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now you have slightly faster reflexes, allowing you to dodge attacks better and avoid danger. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn).

Camouflage: You received a blessing at the temple of Yyssbo on your Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat which allows you to blend in with your surroundings when sneaking and remaining stationary or moving slowly. Any high profile action such as attacking, being attacked and hit, running, being bumped into, etc. will break the effect. Moderately improves sneaking. (Requires Yyssbo Blessed Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat being worn). Not in effect.

Cat Legs: You received a blessing at the temple of Yyssbo on your Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat which allows you to fall from greater distances without taking damage. Falling from roof tops and other moderately high distances will result in no damage taken. Major and Extreme distances will still result in damage or death (Don’t jump off cliffs or off really tall buildings!) (Requires Yyssbo Blessed Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat being worn). Not in effect.

Dual Wielding Master: You have a extreme amount of experience wielding two weapons at once. Dual wielding allows you to attack with two one-handed weapons at once, essentially doubling the damage you do. At present you are extremely skilled and find it easy to hit enemies in combat without any negative effects to your chances to hit. You don’t need any more practice to wield two weapons at once effectively.

Pleasure Resistance Master: You have learned to resist pleasure at a masterful level, and are capable of maintaining your cool under extreme sexual pleasure. However, only the most extremely skilled partners and/or very prolonged pleasure break down your resistance, though you can maintain your cool for a very long period of time.

Dexterity Trained – Flexibility and Ranged Hits: You’ve been trained by Delilah on how to be more dexterous. While it’s not the full dexterity workout, it does allow you to perform hits better with ranged weaponry. You’re also more flexible as a result, just like a gymnast or contortionist!

Blessing of Kramulet: You’ve received a blessing at the temple of Kramulet on yourself, permanently increasing your MR by 30 and gaining the ability to learn magic from magic crystals at a much faster rate than normal.

Blood Magic: You’ve learned to use the dangerous art of blood magic, allowing you to draw on your very life force to cast spells instead of from charges or your magical reserves. Life drained is proportional to the strength of the spell via magical reserves used. The more magic required the more life drained – be warned as this can kill you if you’re not careful!

Evasive Techniques: Delilah of the temple of Domina has taught you the art of evading enemies, both in and outside of combat. Gives a minor boost to dodge and sneak at all times.

True Heart: You’ve completed the trials at the temple of Domina and have found your true heart. Your heart and soul are aligned, which has given you greater confidence, self-assurance, and strength of character. It will be nearly impossible for others to try and change you as a result, unless of course you absolutely want it. Moderate boost to mental fortitude.

Skin-Walker: You’re blessed bodysuit, blessed at the temple of Domina, has seven unique attributes tied to the blessing. On top of being nearly indestructible and capable of keeping you and itself clean. The blessings allow Skin-Walker to become nearly any article of clothing, within reason, changing its shape through your will and imagination. When worn you also receive the boon of increased physical damage resistance (mild), increased magical/elemental damage resistance (mild), increased physical damage dealt (mild), and increased magical damage dealt (minor), your footsteps are completely silent when worn. The final blessing will allow the suit’s power to increase when you sleep with ten different people up to a total of one-hundred different people, but only if suit is worn. (Sex Counter: 31/100) (Requires Skin-Walker being worn)

Increased Health: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit has given you a moderate boost to your natural health, allowing you to take more blows before being killed or knocked out. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Major Barrier of Avoidance: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit has been blessed with a major barrier that warps harmful attacks around you, thus dealing a major blow to enemy hit chances. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Hardiness: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s outfit has been blessed to give you a moderate increase in your resistances against poisons, diseases, and negative status ailments both natural and magical, meaning you’re less likely to contract a disease, be poisoned, or suffer negative status effects during combat. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Majorly Lowered Sexual Inhibitions: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s outfit has been blessed with the effect of lowering your sexual inhibitions when worn, making you much more receptive to sexual advances and making you much more likely to blindly accept such advances regardless of who is making advances, of the time of day, and of where the advances are taking place. Those making such advances will also seem much more attractive to you. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Re: Rift Touched

Sex Perks/Passives

Spoiler

Extreme sexual experience: You’ve had sex many, many times and been in enough sexual situations that you know how to please yourself and pretty much all sexual partners well with extreme skill. You are nearly incapable of being embarrassed by things of a sexual nature and even the most extreme of circumstances won’t make you flinch. You’ve accepted your sexuality entirely and are open to any sexual play of a vanilla nature, and almost all of taboo sexual play as well. Only the absolute most borderline of sexual play and situations will deter you (and if it deters you than it must be pretty wild or terrible!).

Nymphomaniac: You aren’t just a huge slut, you’re a nymphomaniac! It’s a simple fact that you like sex of all kinds, and you yearn for sex. As a result of your extremely sexual ways you have an extremely highly increased sex drive and find that you get aroused very easily, and you think in more sexual ways almost all the time. You also feel no shame at sexual situations, and in fact you will crave sex and be ready for sex at any time.

Enhanced Arousal: As a result of your extreme sexual ways and the constant sex you’ve been having, and maybe as a result of the tentacle pod, you find that you are much more easily aroused and that you think about and want sex more often than ever. When not otherwise preoccupied i.e. fighting, exercising, training, etc. you’ll think about sex and become aroused. Better get laid fast or masturbate before it becomes a problem!

Vaginal Experience: You have extreme amounts of experience with vaginal sex and feel right at home with being penetrated. You can receive a great deal of pleasure, and give pleasure in return to any sexual partner penetrating you. With so much use of your vagina you have developed a tendency for it and love to have sex using your main sexual organ. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Cervix Penetration: As a result of having so much sex with your vagina you are now capable of having your cervix penetrated, which will also give you and your partner a great deal of pleasure.

Vaginal Vibrations: You’ve become very attuned to your vagina, what with all the sex you’ve been having using it. As a result you can now control the muscles of your vaginal walls, to an extent, and vibrate them slightly to increase the pleasure both you and your penetrating partner feel.

Magical Vagina: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving vaginal pleasure: The Magical Vagina (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at using your main sex organ and are so in tune with your love tunnel that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your passage that enhances the pleasure you can give and receive when being penetrated. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Altered Vagina: You have had your vagina altered so that you are always tight no matter what. Not only that, but when you are penetrated vaginally your vagina will mold itself to the penetrating object which makes you a perfect fit for anything and also greatly increasing the pleasure you and your partner both feel.

Vaginal Fixation: You’ve developed a bit of a vaginal fixation with all the “objects” going into your love tunnel all the time. As a result you like having things inside your pussy and, when you do, you find that you will perform slightly better in all things that you do. You’ll also find that you’re vagina will be wet more often than not when not in life threatening situations.

Anal: You have an extreme amount of experience using your anus when it comes to sex and as a result you can receive a great deal of pleasure from using it and know how to please your sexual partners very, very well with it. As a result of your continued anal play you find that you absolutely love using your anus during sex and have developed a tendency for it, loving to have your anus used during sex. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Anal Vice: Your love of anal sex has helped you develop a sexual technique that will allow you to clamp down onto a penetrating object using your anus, increasing the tightness of your already tight hole. This increases your pleasure and the pleasure of those who penetrate you using your anus.

Anal Acceptance: You can take small to large objects up your butt with ease and no need for foreplay. Your altered anus allows you to now take on extra-large objects with no need for foreplay, meaning any size will work!

Magical Anus: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving anal pleasure: The Magical Anus (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at using your backdoor and are so in tune with your bum that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your anus that enhances the pleasure you can give and receive when being penetrated. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Anal Fixation: You’ve developed a bit of an anal fixation with all the “objects” going into your backdoor as of late. As a result you like having things up your butt and, when you do, you find that you will perform slightly better in all things that you do. You’ll also use your anus when masturbating as well from now on.

Altered Anus: You’ve had your anus altered allowing you to take most objects up your butt with ease and no need for foreplay. You also have a larger behind as a result.

Oral: You’re the best at using your mouth to please your sexual partners. So good, in fact, that you can bring any sexual partners to orgasm very quickly using your masterful techniques. You also find that you can’t get enough of using your mouth during sex and have developed an oral fixation. You love giving head and having something in your mouth and down your throat. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Cum Addict: You love, bordering on needing, the taste of cum and you can’t get enough of being covered in cum as a result of your constant oral performances and situations where you have been climaxed on. You love to drink down cum whether it is semen, female ejaculate, or some other sexual fluid and you love to be covered in it. You will find that you will have a thirst and craving for cum and, while no negative health effects will happen if you don’t get it, you will find that you perform slightly better in all the things you do for a time when you get it.

Oral Vacuum: With your superior oral skills you have learned how to increase the pleasure of those lucky enough to be on the receiving end of your work. You’re able to use the vibrations from your mouth and throat while simultaneously increasing the pressure and tightness of your mouth to bring extreme pleasure to an individual, bringing them to climax in a matter of seconds.

Magical Mouth: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving oral pleasure: The Magical Mouth (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at giving head and are so in tune with your mouth that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your mouth that enhance the pleasure you can give both when giving head or kissing. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Oral Fixation: You’ve developed an oral fixation with all the “things” you’ve been sucking on, licking, and putting in your mouth. As a result you will put things in your mouth and suck on them, such as your fingers, or chew on things, such as quills or small objects.

Breast Play: You love breasts; they’re simply wonderful bags of fun. You like to suck on them, drink from them, snuggle up to them, and play with them. You also like having your own played with and have even learned how to use them to please your sexual partners.

Lactation: Your breasts can now lactate thanks to an alteration you had done at the temple of Domina. Your breasts are now larger and are capable of producing milk if sucked on or if brought to orgasm, and the supply will never run out for long if drained.

Titjob Professional: You’ve learned how to give expert titjobs as a result of your love for using them during sex! As a result you can now bring your partners to climax easily with using only your tits!

Boob Fascination: You love breasts so much that you are completely fascinated by them! When given the chance, you’ll be a real pervert and try to grope and play with breasts! Sometimes it might be your own, and sometimes it might be someone else’s! You’re smart, however, and won’t try to do it so blatantly in public…unless a particularly delicious pair of breasts are presented to you!

Boob-gasms: It turns out that your enhanced sensitivity makes it so you can have orgasms just from breasts stimulation alone. Isn’t that nifty?

Ear-gasms: Your natural heightened sensitivity allows you to have orgasms from having only your half-elf ears stimulated. Weird.

Ass-gasms: Because of your increased natural sensitivity you find that you can receive orgasms solely from having your anus played with or penetrated. Who needs pesky vaginas anyways?

No gag-reflex: Thanks to Lula’s help you know how to properly control your gag reflex, allowing you to deep throat with ease, or put other large objects down your throat.

Voyeurism: You watched other people have sex from a distance and you really, really like it. You like watching others have sex and get highly aroused by the act. You’re close enough that you might be considered a peeping tom!

Exhibitionism: You have bared yourself in all manner of situations and you love to expose your body. You feel absolutely no shame from the act, and in fact you rather enjoy it and prefer walking around in barely any clothing or none at all.

Exhibitionist at Heart: You love exposing yourself a whole lot. You’ve done it so much and like it just as much that you feel completely confident exposing yourself no matter what. In fact, if you don’t wear scant clothing or nothing at all then you just don’t feel right. While nude or in scant attire you’ll find that you’re more charming, more aroused, and people and enemies are more distracted.

Less is More: You absolutely love showing yourself off, and as an unexpected result you find that when you wear nothing at all, or very little, that you can move and dodge attacks slightly better than when covered in less revealing outfits.

Exhibitionistic Power: There’s nothing wrong at all with your body, or anyone else’s for that matter, and you love to show it off to others! You also don’t really like clothing all that much and prefer to be naked, or wearing hardly anything, if at all possible. You won’t suffer any negative consequences if you are clothed, but when you aren’t wearing any clothing, or very little, then you’ll find that you can focus better. You’ll find that, with your better focus, you’ll be better at virtually everything you do by a small margin. Now get out there and flaunt what you’ve got!

Woman Lover: You love being with women…in more ways than one, and have learned how to please women extremely well and you know what women want. As a result, when having sex with women you can bring them greater pleasure. You can also charm and seduce women better, and you may even be able to seduce women that might not usually want to be with another woman.

Humiliation: You have been in degrading and humiliating situations and have had degrading and humiliating things happen to you, whether from extreme situations or over time, and as a result you derive great pleasure and arousal from being degraded and humiliated. You also find that you like to degrade and humiliate others in various ways, though not as strongly as being humiliated yourself.

Coarser Language (sex only): As a result of the dirty talk and humiliation you’ve endured and dished out, you now find that you talk a little coarser, but only during sexual situations. Nothing too bad, a fuck here, a shit there, but nothing too over the top or outside sexual situations. If you continue, then you might find yourself cursing like a sailor before long…

Bondage Submissive: You’ve been bound and had sex with one or more dominant partners many times, and perhaps in extreme circumstances, and as a result you find you love to be in submissive bondage roles. You will always prefer to be tied up in nearly any bondage situation and will comply with the demands of more dominant sexual partners easily when tied up, and you may even comply with some submissive partners as well. It’s in its complete stage; there’s no going back for you. If you’re tied up or there’s an option to be tied up, then you will always take it and be as submissive as possible.

Bound Arousal: You’ve been tied up a whole lot before and as a result you find that you’re more easily aroused and you have a higher sex drive when tied up. Works in tandem with other arousal and libido altering perks and effects.

Bondage Submissive’s Sixth Sense: You’ve developed a sort of sixth sense when it comes to being tied up in regards to your more dominant partner. Whenever you’re tied up you instinctually know what your dominant partner desires, and you will act accordingly to bring them the most pleasure possible.

Bondage Submissive’s Place: You’ve been tied up so much, and loving every second of it of course, that whenever you’re tied up from now on any and all sexual partners, whether dominant or submissive, will have total control of you. You realize that, when tied up, you feel happy and you give up control and agency of yourself to better serve those around you – you will comply with nearly all demands of your sexual partners and do as they please when tied up, bring them greater pleasure as well as yourself.

Submissive Bondage Trained: Delilah of the temple of Domina has taught you how to be the very best bondage submissive that you can be! Whenever you’re tied up you’ll automatically become extremely submissive, meek, obedient, be willing to serve other’s needs, and be ordered around without complaint…because you’ll love it so much!

Switch-Extreme Dominant (Normal): You have been both submissive and dominant in sexual situations and are capable of being one or the other should the situation call for it. However, you very much prefer being the dominant and have developed your dominance so that you can more easily make others comply with you. You are capable of dominating truly dominant, neutral, and submissive people – truly dominant people are much less troublesome now and the only way you’ll ever be submissive outside of bondage situations is if you allow it; you cannot be forced to be submissive.

Dominant Personality Plus: You’ve been dominant a whole lot lately, and as a result you’ve developed a sort of natural dominant personality. You’ll be much more dominant than those around you at all times, and more forceful and demanding of those around you, but not cruelly so thanks to your heart of gold.

Submissive’s Dominant: You might not be the most dominant person around, but you’ve found that with the right attitude you can dominant submissive people regardless of your own preference. With this you can exert your will on more submissive individuals and make them comply with your wishes both in and out of sex.

Unbridled Will: You are a dominant person, and as a result of your dominance your will has increased to fiery proportions. You will find that your mental fortitude is increased slightly as a result of your dominant independence, and that you have a much easier time dominating dominant individuals. Also, you have a bit of a fiery personality that shows itself from time to time.

Slut Trained: You’ve learned from the best resident slut at the temple of Domina on how to be a better slut! As a result you now act generally sluttier and suggestive in almost all situations and go out of your way to tease everyone around you, on top of thinking more about sex. You also have more stamina and endurance when it comes to sex before wearing out. Also, you may find that certain individuals are more forthcoming when you speak to them.

Permanent Sway: Thanks to Helena’s so called “Slut Training” you’ve learned how to act sexier and sluttier. As a result, you find that swaying your hips provocatively comes as second nature to you and you now have a permanent sway to your steps as a result. This’ll be sure to turn heads!

Slightly Lowered Inhibitions: Your inhibitions are lowered slightly thanks to your actions and you find that you don’t mind people getting “touchy” with you in intimate ways, so long as it’s not too extreme.

Sexual Preference: Bisexual – Lesbian: You identify yourself as a bisexual, though with more lesbian tendencies. You aren’t entirely sure if you’re truly lesbian, though you prefer to be sexually active with women more than men, and as a result you will find that you find women much more attractive and men less so. This includes futa individuals or those that identify as female.

When the shadow engage Arlandus you cast Flash (G3).
Then you blink (H2) behind him and strike his hand that holds the staff with the Right Hand of Shadow.

Overall, C, broken down into:

E1 and F2, utilizing them to aid against and distract Arlandus and/or his immediate guards (along with any other preparations such as G1 and G3 when appropriate, as mentioned by nightshade) in order for Colette to get close enough (within 10 feet) to do H2, Blinking behind Arlandus and re-appearing in such a way that - preferably - allows Colette to quickly slit his throat with the dagger the moment she re-appears.

I agree, the dagger hopefully can bypass any defensive enchancements.
Maybe the shadow clone will get our super speed too.

12:54 pm

You hear the chaos of the battle below you; screams, cries, and shouts fill the atmosphere of the room, chief among them being Yunlya’s and Hera’s voices, along with some of the less trained guards and emissaries as they issue commands and fight with all their might and for their lives. You even think you might hear heavy pounding on the large double doors of the room, but it matters little as they are tightly sealed by Arlandus’ earth magic, and at that moment all paths seem clear to you. Arlandus needs to be dealt with chiefly amongst all the other threats and dangers in the room – sure, his guards, the defectors, and the undead are serious problems that could still very well end your life and the lives of everyone else here, but should Arlandus be allowed to roam freely then who knows what terror and evil he will continue to sow over the years. With that one thought in mind, and keeping an eye on the hulking armored undead that threatens you, you bring Nyx’s black dagger up above your head in front of you and you will the blade to listen to you while offering a prayer to Yyssbo, even pleading with the god of shadows and the gentle hand for help. Whatever it is you did, or a combination thereof, the blade glows in a black hue that seems to destroy all light around it, the reverse of when a door is opened in a darkened room. You then bring your right hand down, slashing at the air itself quickly – you watch as a black slit forms in the air in front of you before it blows wide open, like some ungodly black portal to a black abyss of pure darkness. Except this portal is far from ungodly, as the power of Yyssbo lent to you sucks in all light and, from the other end of the dark tear, emerges a shadow doppelganger of yourself down to the most minute of details, even going so far as to be equipped in a shadow version of Skin-Walker that covers it’s entire body similar to yourself, however, as it emerges and readies it’s weapons for combat, and as the tear slowly dissipates, you notice that it doesn’t make a single sound and it doesn’t seem to respond to anything at all… yet. However, despite your intent to thoroughly obliterate Arlandus, you haven’t completely forgotten about his undead entourage, least of all the wound on your torso that stings fiercely from the precise cut you suffered as you feel the blood flowing and being cleansed by Skin-Walker. However, the time for thinking and planning is done and the time to act is now.

“Nyx!” you yell out to the dwarven woman and her shade as your own keeps vigil in front of you “Give him everything you got! Don’t hold back!” She doesn’t even look at you as she nods her head only but once before both her and her living shadow, all ten feet of them combined, charge Arlandus as she glows in a bright light and you hear her chanting some other miracle. You mentally will your own shadow to follow and defend you, but focus its own efforts on Arlandus as you sprint towards him, and you note immediately from the few movements it attempts that it does not have your own unique powers, unfortunately. No matter you think It can at least buy me some time and protect me. As you move, however, the undead guard of Arlandus moves to intercept you, swinging its massive greatsword in a wide horizontal arc as you move quickly passed your shadow towards Arlandus. You deftly duck under the blow, yet your shade doesn’t seem to be as agile as you are and ducks a little too late, taking the blow to part of its face. You glance back at the shade while slowly trotting, concerned as the sword passes through it and clearly damaging it as it staggers before the shadow regains its footing and strikes out at the undead creature. Your shade strikes out with its left hand first, the replica of your steel dagger bouncing off the front of the plate armor, yet when it ducks low and quickly maneuvers around the undead guard as it swings yet again and misses, your shadow slices at the tendons on the feet of the undead beneath the seams of the armor. The guard immediately drops to its knees as the shadowy blade rends through its flesh like butter, and you can’t help but grimace as you think that if the person wasn’t already dead then there would be a lot of blood… and a lot of screaming. Still you turn your attention back to Arlandus and will your shadow to follow so that you can gang up on him along with Nyx, who nears the end of her chant you surmise by the musical crescendo her chanting takes. “You think a pitiful pint-sized dwarven priestess and a little girl half-breed can best me?!” Arlandus roars as his staff begins to glow in a bright brown light. He slams his staff on the ground just as Nyx finishes her chant and throws out a ball of light aimed directly for Arlandus. You quickly catch up to Nyx as your shadow trails behind and stand beside her and her shade as you watch, and hear, Arlandus roar in pain as his skin sizzles slightly… and as his spell takes effect. The ground below your feet rumbles violently for a few moments and then, as if the very earth itself was splitting in two, you hear the cracking and grinding of stone as huge chunks of rock from the stage uproot themselves from the ground around Arlandus, leaving noticeable empty patches around him as he grips his face in pain. He looks up at you and Nyx with hatred and malice, and you’re only barely aware of the guard your shadow incapacitated rising to its feet somehow as well as the other undead guards fighting against Koren’s group.

You start to make a move, but as soon as you take a step you see that each of the large chunks floating around Arlandus, six in all, crack and break down so fast that even with your enhanced reflexes you barely caught it. Each of the stone chunks break down into tiny pinky finger sized shards of rock that look incredibly sharp as they float in the air. “Crap! Get down!” you say to Nyx beside you as you tap into the power of your blue magic crystal, glowing in a blue magic light. You quickly cast your ice shield, the blue ice encasing your latex clad body in a blue sheen before turning transparent, before throwing yourself to the side just as the hundreds of little rock spikes launches themselves at you and Nyx, who likewise threw herself off to the left side. Both of your shades do the same, following their respective creators. Nyx and the two shades successfully evade the attacks, but it seems that you were the intended target all along as most of the shards that, literally hundreds of them, were almost all directed at you and seem to follow you and curve slightly to your movements. While you manage to evade most of the shards, you don’t manage to evade all of them – your ice shield is peppered with hundreds of little shards that individually don’t deal much damage, but the constant barrage of rock needles quickly breaks down your ice shield. You scream out in anguish as the left side of your torso, face, and your back are peppered with sharp rock, and you quickly try to get to your feet and move out of the way of the barrage as you feel most of them break on Skin-Walker, thankfully, which will leave a great deal of bruises. However, more than a few manage to penetrate the defenses of your blessed bodysuit, slicing at your skin as they whizz passed and even lodging themselves into your flesh, though not deeply enough to be lethal. You scramble forward, bloodied and bruised, and make your way towards the edge of the stage as you clutch your side, throwing Arlandus an angry look just as you watch him cast an ice shield of his own with that gods damned staff of his. “What’s the matter, girl? I told you already, you can’t beat me no matter how hard you try and no matter what tricks you throw at me! I am a master… I am a God!” the insane mage bellows from his burnt face as Nyx and the two shadows rise to their feet. You notice the undead guard that assailed you before slowing making its way towards you, limping slightly on the broken and maimed flesh at its feet.

Don’t make me laugh; a god? Time to end this you think as you will your shadow to occupy the guard closing in on you, sword raised to attack. Clutching your side in pain you look to Nyx, who looks back, and nod at her – she nods back in understanding and quickly rises to her feet with her shade and charges Arlandus with a roar. Hs staff glows in a semi-bright aqua light before he swings his staff out in front of him, a torrent of water arcing out of his staff with incredible force as he roars a battle cry. You launch yourself from the end of the stage at Arlandus, quickly closing the distance as Nyx is struck by the blast of water, knocking her back on her bottom while her shade manages to slide underneath the blast before hopping onto its feet and jumping at Arlandus – at the same time you hear your own shade engage the undead minion behind you, the sound of metal clashing against flesh, not shadow, evident to your ears. “Shadows and tricks won’t work against me, bitch!” Arlandus roars as he swats at the leaping shade, striking the shadow in the side, yet it doesn’t seem to faze the creature overly much as it jerks slightly to the right as it grabs the stab and holds on tight while bringing its own dagger down into Arlandus’ right hand, causing him to roar in pain as the power of the blessed shadow dagger rips through the magic and cuts deeply into his hand. He lets go of his staff with that hand, though keeps a firm hold with his left as he winds up and throws a punch at the shadow, hitting it in the face and causing the copy of Nyx to let go and fall to the ground on its back. You gather your energy and glow in a dim white light as you delve into the knowledge and power of the white crystal, a few feet away from Arlandus – he turns to look at you as his weapons glows in a bright red light, swinging his staff to aim at you. He sees what you’re doing, given his wide eyes, and closes his eyes just as you release a burst of white light – though you didn’t get Arlandus you hear an equally satisfying shriek of pain from every undead creature in the room as the white light seems to burn them, harming them beyond what any weapon of steel could do, some even dying on the spot from your attack given their weakness to light.

Arlandus opens his eyes just in time to see your masked face as you crouch down low, daggers at your sides before he releases a fireball aimed right at you from only a few feet away… and then you blink. Time around you stops as you enter the wormhole you just created, accelerating the magic behind you and pushing yourself along a path around Arlandus so that you can get behind him… and hopefully end him. You travel around and behind the mage, the eerie and frightening sight of his fireball mere inches from where you just were is not lost on you, and had you been a moment slower you would have been much crispier than you are now. With your steel dagger in your left hand near your navel and Nyx’s blade in your right held above your head, you emerge from your tunnel behind Arlandus in a puff of blue magical haze. “Wha-?!” the man begins to say in astonishment, but is quickly cut off as you force all the air out of his lungs. You plunge your steel dagger into his back with all your might, releasing a grunt of force as you push passed his robes and into his back – you then quickly withdraw and jump onto his back, again planting your steel dagger into the mage’s flesh, this time into his left shoulder, earning a pained gurgle before finally, bringing your black blade down to his throat. “You’re no god; you’re nothing more than a sad, deranged little man” you whisper into his ear before you draw the dagger across his throat from cheek to cheek, the blade opening up his skin as if it were gliding across air or water. Blood immediately drains from his neck in a torrent, sometimes in a forceful spurt, and drenches the blade, your hand, the front of his robes, and the floor below you both in his crimson red blood. Arlandus gurgles in pain and disbelief… and on his own blood as he stumbles forward with you still on his back, your steel dagger still planted in his left shoulder as you bring the other blade up again for another strike. You bring it down again, this time in his other shoulder which earns another pained gurgled before he topples down and over the edge of the stage with you still atop him. You remove your blades from him with tiny squelches as blood and fat is again cut from their removal, and just before you hit the ground Arlandus turns slightly causing you both to land on your right sides. With an “Oof” of pain, adding to the already biting, stinging pain wracking your body from cuts and bruises, you hit the ground on your right side and head, dazing you and probably causing some more bruises that will show up later on.

Gods… I’m so tired and I hurt everywhere, but at least I finally got him – Dear gods are you kidding me?!

As you lie beside Arlandus, recovering from your exertions, you see him moving slightly and before you know it his staff glows in a dim golden light before being doused with a light healing spell, probably saving his life though just barely as he still groans in extreme pain. As the monsters and mayhem fill your senses as you’re now in the thick of the chaos, you quickly glance around for anything that might look to end you and, surprisingly, you and Arlandus are ignored – you idly wonder if being on the ground has anything to do with it. Now that Arlandus is weakened it would be easy to finish him off… but you wrestle with that thought for a moment. He’s weakened now, but still poses a threat, but then again he’s basically defenseless – He deserves to die… he does, but I’ve – I’ve never actually killed someone before. Sure I’ve killed some monsters and feral goblins, but that was in the heat of the moment. This is a person – a vile and despicable person, no doubt – but he is a person nonetheless. I can’t just murder him in cold blood like this… can I? It wouldn’t be right, would it? You wrestle with your thoughts as you grip both your blades before grabbing at Arlandus’ robes and turning him over with a grunt as his near lifeless body seems incredibly heavy to your smaller frame. When you turn him over, his staff still in hand, you see that he’s barely conscious as he groans and coughs lightly, the cut along his throat barely sealing itself and leaving a very visible scar along his neck that looks like it can open up at any moment. His eyes flutter for a moment before they open completely, and it takes a moment for him to focus, but when he does focus his dark green eyes look into yours through your mask and you see something that you never thought would be possible with this man – you see fear; not pride or arrogance, confidence, megalomania… no, he is afraid to die. “Please” he begs in a raspy, quiet voice “Please… let me live. Please, I beg of you…” You almost don’t know what to think, and you definitely don’t know what to say as you kneel over him and loosen your grip on your daggers. You will the mask portion of Skin-Walker back so that you can look at him with your own eyes, not some mask to protect yourself – your hair spills out behind you and over your shoulders, and some blood trickles down the side of your face as your skin is exposed to the air, which also serves to sting your face and causing you to wince in pain with your left eye partially closed from the wounds you suffered. “Mercy, Colette, please have mercy” Arlandus again rasps out, and again you find yourself conflicted as your nature and instincts collide with each other.

“Mercy?” you say, posed more as a question as you remain neutral both in voice and face “Why should I show you any mercy at all? You’ve never showed mercy… not once. You murdered Ulric, you murdered those servants, you stole, you oppressed, and you usurped. You have dozens, nay, hundreds of deaths to answer for and you want mercy? You soaked in the blood and death like a fine wine, you looked down on others and took everything that you possibly could and gave nothing back. Look around, Arlandus, and see what you’ve sown; whether or not they were the best of people, you ended the lives of dozens in an instant and turned them into shambling horrors of their former selves. Their families will now have to mourn soulless monsters with their faces caved in, bodies torn apart, and with the knowledge that they’ve died in fear and agony and were used to harm others against their will. Help me understand… by the gods help me understand why I should show you mercy!” You nearly spit on his face as you yell at him, tears running down your face as you grimace in anguish, and as you have the overwhelming urge to vomit from the trauma you’ve been exposed to in such a short amount of time. You look up and see the fighting as you feel oddly detached from it all and are reminded of the life that, no matter how fake or put on it may have been earlier, there was still life and a vibrancy about the room. You even recognize a few faces from earlier as some of the men and women you conversed with earlier on. Now their suits and dresses are torn and bloody as they lie in heaps on the ground, bodies cleaved, mauled, torn asunder, or worse – they’ve become part of the undead from Arlandus’ spell and risen, skin pale and gaunt, faces sunken and drained of vital fuilds as they fight, kill, and are killed again. “You’re right… you’re right I don’t deserve mercy, but please, Colette, you’re no murderer. I can see it in your eyes; you wouldn’t kill a defenseless man, would you?” Arlandus pleads with you, and it almost works as you bring your daggers down to your sides, but you narrow your eyes and glare at him. “No, I’m not a murderer… and you don’t know anything about me – AAARGH!” You scream out in pain as you were so intently focused on Arlandus that you neglected to completely disarm him. Pain courses through your body as his staff glows in a semi-bright black hue and the tip is pressed against your right side, sending a horrible agony through your body that feels as if the blood vessels in your body are bursting followed by a thousand clubs against your skin.

You grimace through the pain and bring Nyx’s black blade down on Arlandus’ left hand, stabbing square in the center of his flesh and making him scream out in pain as he drops his staff and recoils, the action causing more damage as the blades’ sharpness rends his flesh as he pulls back. You feel dizzy and ill, and the world seems to spin as you fall to your side and smack your head against the stone, the pain and damage done on top of your exhaustion proving to be too much for you to bear at the moment. You groan in severe pain before coughing a hacking cough, spitting up blood as you do so that paints the floor before you – you watch as Arlandus, fear and pain in his eyes, scrambles backwards along his bottom before turning around and stumbling into the crowd, tripping over his robes and more or less crawling away from you. After a few moments you gather your will and wits and push yourself up, coughing up small dribbles of blood in the process and grab your blades as you steady yourself first on your right knee before pushing yourself up a little unsteadily. “Colette! Are you alright?!” you hear from above you, and you turn your head and look up to see Nyx looking down at you, battered and bruised and with concern on her face. “Yeah-“ you begin to say in a raspy voice before coughing , this time with less blood than before, before the fit ends and you say more confidently “Yeah, I’m going after Arlandus. He dropped his staff and ran away, here; make sure he’s nowhere near it”. You bend down and pick up his staff after sheathing both your blades with your throwing knives. You find the staff surprisingly heavy even wielding it with both hands, and you wonder what kind of strength, or magic, might empower Arlandus to wield such a weapon with one hand effectively – you turn and toss the staff up to Nyx, who catches it unsteadily with both hands, before she herself tosses the weapon behind her. “One of the guards is routed, Colette, and the other two ran off after Arlandus into the crowd when he fell”. You nod at her explanation and ask “Is Koren, Glethal, Yasha, and Julian alright… and are you alright?” Nyx nods quickly and replies in a tired voice “We are and I am. Come, let us find this coward – guard this staff and make sure no one loyal to Arlandus gets near it”. Nyx drops down onto the floor next to you after speaking to someone beside her, which turns out to be her shade as it watches its master drop beside you, and a moment later another shadow, your shadow, comes vaulting over the edge and lands next to you.

You clutch your sides in pain and wince, stifling a groan, which concerns Nyx as she reaches out for you. You give her a small smile and, after lightly reassuring her, you imagine Skin-Walker’s mask back on and head into the fray, albeit slowly and cautiously. You glow in a dim blue light before you release the power of your ice crystal to shield yourself once more, and not a moment too soon as you wade into the crowd with Nyx and your shadow, wading over the bodies and into the heart of the battle. A few of the undead turn their attention from a fighter that they were cornering, who looks to be one of the orcish tribes and is covered in blood as he wields a battleaxe with two hands and cleaves with all his might. All three of you ready your weapons, but before they get close you tap into the power of your white magic crystal and, before you release a flash of blinding light, you yell out to the orc and anyone nearby “Close your eyes! Now!” The orc notices you yelling and see you glowing in a white light – he closes his eyes just in time as you release the power of the crystal and blind all the enemies, and some friends perhaps, around you. You also succeed in damaging the undead around you as low wails escape their bloody lips, their skin sizzling in purifying light, with some toppling over and sizzling up from the attack while others have some of their limbs fall off without succumbing to their true death. When the light display is over the orc opens his eyes and howls in fury as he brings his axe up and cleaves through the few remaining undead with ease in their weakened state. “My thanks, little one” the large orc states simply with a bow before he howls in fury and charges into the fray once more, his barbarian furs a brown haze as he rushes into the fight against the other undead. “Heh, little one… tch, damn that hurts” you say with a chuckle before wincing in pain again as a particularly deep breath of air stings at your lungs, which are probably bruised from the pummeling of sharp stones, sword blows, and whatever foul black magic Arlandus hit you with. “Gods, Colette, are you sure you’re alright? There are precious few miracles that heal under Yyssbo, and I turned them all on myself from the blows I suffered from Arlandus” Nyx says in concern as she places a hand on your side, making you wince in pain and causing her to retract. “Really? When did you do that?” you ask curiously as you scan the room, looking for any sign of Arlandus amidst the chorus of the battle. “I am more adept at miracles than my other followers, obviously, and the same could be said for other heads of temples. We, I, can cast two miracles at once – one hidden beneath another if you will. It takes skill and knowledge, of which I have both, and is difficult to master”. You nod in acceptance at her explanation, but a glimmer of plate armor and some very expensive looking robes catches your eye.

Re: Rift Touched

You focus on the crowd once more and see that the remainder of Arlandus’ guards, which looks to now be down to four, are converging on a single area and are ignoring all would be attackers. “Found him” is all you say as you steel yourself once more and rush into the fray, leaving Nyx and your shadow behind to catch up. Even hurt as you are you still manage to move at an incredible speed, and as you move you take the opportunity to slash, cut, and stab any undead, and some of those that defected to Arlandus, when given the opportunity, though you don’t kill anyone except a few undead. You feel like a whirlwind, completely confident and detached from the situation as you storm through the crowd – one undead tries its luck against you and lunges at you, both hands outstretched as you charge right into him. You merely huff in irritation and jump with your knee outstretched, pummeling the undead creature in the chest and plunging your daggers into its skull even before you hit the ground and land on top of the former nobleman, sliding a few feet on the ground before removing your daggers and continuing your charge as more black, decayed blood flies about your destruction. It’s like a race as you move to get to Arlandus before his guards do, tumbling over bodies, damaging them as you go – a swipe at the feet her, a stab in the head there – all the while following the glimmers of jewels and armor that is on the edges of the glittering robes. Through the sea of death around you, you suffer minor cuts and abrasions, mostly inflicted on yourself in your haste as your ice shield takes the brunt of most blows before it finally succumbs under your reckless charge, and at last you find your quarry – your chase has led you to the edge of the room, over the uprooted stone where you and Arlandus once stood near the right side of the room, his back turned to you as some undead surround him. “Arlandus!” you scream as you rush him, weaving passed any creatures that would do you harm, and he turns to face you all but too late as you fly into the air and punch him in the face with your left hand which still clutches at your steel dagger. Arlandus screams in pain and fear as he tumbles backwards, almost tripping over himself, but as your feet hit the ground you duck low and dart forward and, with the blessed dagger, you plunge the dagger into the side of his knee. As Arlandus howls in pain yet again and falls backwards, unable to hold up his own weight, you expedite the process by quickly bounding to your feet with your superior speed and shoulder ramming him, ignoring the pain as you scream in rage. Soon, the six foot frame of Arlandus hits the ground, the back of his head banging against the stone floor and earning groans of pain and exhaustion from him, and yet you do not relent. As he lies there, dazed, battered, and bleeding, you take the opportunity to stand over him before kneeling down beside him, placing your left hand and the steel dagger at his crotch while your right dagger is over his heart.

“Wai-“ Arlandus starts to say, but you cut him off by ever so slightly digging into his flesh with both your blades, earning a pained and frightened yelp from the old man. “Call them all off” you say as you note the guards coming to the aid of their master, no more than a dozen feet away. “Call them off or by all the gods I will castrate you and kill you before I fall”. You will your mask off and, as your face is once again exposed to the pain inducing air and your red hair falls freely over your back and front, you look Arlandus in his dark green eyes with your own green eyes, which glow like emeralds under light, full of confidence and dark conviction. You don’t actually know if you’ll follow through, but at this point you don’t really care as the battle has drawn on too long, you’re closer to death than you’ve ever been, and you’ve seen and heard enough death and horror to last a lifetime. Arlandus continues to stare into your eyes, and you dig just a little further to emphasize your point, causing him to yelp in pain before yelling “STOP!” And not a moment too soon as you see a large plate covered figure reflected on your steel dagger, albeit partially thanks to all the blood it’s covered in. “All of them. I want them gone… destroy them!” You yell at the man, and a moment later he says something that disappoints you greatly. “I can’t!” he cries out, and you grimace as you bring your daggers up and plunge down. “PLEASE! I cannot destroy them! They are bound to my will! Unless destroyed or unless I am killed they cannot be destroyed! I can only command them through my will!” Arlandus cries out as he brings his hands up, and you notice that the area around his groin on his robes gets just a little wetter from your actions as a dark spot spreads outwards. “Then keep them still or so help me” you say sinisterly, letting the unspoken words hang heavy on Arlandus – he nods submissively before saying “P-Please, I need to cast an incantation to stop the masses. O-Olds words and magics to stop the lesser ones”. You nod slowly and, daggers at the ready, you stand up and circle behind Arlandus as he stands up slowly – once he’s up you wrap your left hand around him and guide your blade to his groin once more while pressing your other blade into his back and whisper “Anything I don’t like and we go with castration and death. Seems like something a ‘whore from the hells’ would enjoy, wouldn’t you agree?” Arlandus physically shakes and, as you look over at his guards, which are perfectly still, you listen to Arlandus as he begins to say something in an unknown tongue, of which you can only guess at the meaning of the words.

“Mortecurio nulesha valakananesh delsorio Vulek’Trasha’Nesh! Volukio nal…” Arlandus says in a loud, booming voice that seems to carry much farther than it should, and you instinctively drop into your aura sight. You see something most curious as you watch the world bleed away into one of pure magic; that, despite not having access to his own magic, you can see that the words he utters do something… strange. With every word the threads in the air shift ever so slightly and, before you know it, Arlandus utters the final word. Upon the utterance of this final, unintelligible word, the threads shift and swirl like a whirlpool before being pressed outwards from the boom of Arlandus’ voice, washing over the entirety of the room and especially the undead, which soon fall to the floor as truly lifeless husks, as do the guards. One by one the undead crumple into heaps, some in mid attack, others while devouring some poor soul, and so on. “What was that?” you ask out of curiosity, though the way you are right now it comes out more as an order that makes Arlandus jump slightly. “O-Old words… t-there was a time when m-magic was much d-different than it is today, when these c-crystals were not needed. I only k-know a few words, but they have power if spoken correctly”. Interesting… a time when magic crystals weren’t needed to cast magic you think and, for some reason, this idea and the words seem… important to you somehow. You don’t quite know why, but you quickly shake the thought and feeling off as pain wracks your body once more and Arlandus’ fearful voice enters your ears. “Please, I surrender; I have done as you ask and now I beg your mercy!” Arlandus pleads with you. You look around the room and see Yunlya, Hera and her guard, and the other survivors rounding up the defectors and tending to the wounded and helpless, who scream in pain, agony, and despair while those that help look hardly better than those that they tend – Hera looks like she’s taken quite a few nasty blows, and Yunlya’s fine brown hair is no longer in a bun and part of her vest is torn. The floor is coated in blood and the entrails of countless victims, the stench of death so thick in the air you swear you could taste it. You spy your shadow sauntering over to you with the same sway that you learned shortly after your arrival to the city thanks to your stay at the temple of Domina, and then you see Nyx. She’s watching you with a neutral expression on her battered face, and you see that her dress is torn in places and she has cuts on her arms and legs, yet it’s her eyes that strike you the most. You know she wanted Arlandus to pay, preferably having justice met out during a trial of some sort, but now… now she doesn’t look so sure. She looks into your eyes and what you see gives no answers or indication on what you should do with Arlandus. You look out at the crowd and see others staring back at you expectantly, hatred on their faces as they look upon the man who did this to them.

“Please… let me live. You’ve won and I surrender…” Arlandus says in a shaky voice, and you grip your daggers ever more firmly and grit your teeth at hearing his voice, pressing Nyx’s blade into his back harder, tearing the cloth and pressing into his skin which earns you a pained howl. “Mercy, good woman, mercy! I surrender! Yyssbo, Lequis, Kramulet, Dwynvel, Tristram, Domina, Junjiri, Qalmiter… have mercy!”

He deserves to die, but he’s defenseless… so much death, what’s one more? Especially the one that caused so much pain and suffering; this would be justice! Gods… so much pain and death… I’m so tired…

Choices

Spoiler

A. Kill Arlandus. He deserves to die for all that he’s done and the world would be a better place with him gone.

B. Kill Arlandus… painfully. Make him suffer horribly for what he’s done, just as he’s done to Ulric, Glethal, Elise, and so many more.

C. Spare Arlandus. He surrendered and you’re not a cold-blooded killer, and he’s certain to face judgment for his crimes.

D. Spare Arlandus, but beat the crap out of him! You’re not a cold-blooded killer, but by the gods he’s put you and everyone else through hell and that’s the least he deserves!

E. Give Arlandus over to Yunlya and let her decide.

F. Give Arlandus over to the crowd and let the masses decide.

G. Rest and try to recuperate after the hard fought battle. (After dealing with Arlandus)

H. People are hurt and they still need help. Help tend to the wounded any way you can. (After dealing with Arlandus)

X. Other

Z. Character/Environment Interaction

Re: Rift Touched

Character/Environment Interaction explanation

Spoiler

The Character/Environment Interaction system allows you to interact with the world around you as well as interact with Colette or other characters in the story. Want to have Colette tie her hair up? Then choose this along with the main choices. Want her to stow away a stone, or tie up a bad guy with a rope? Go right ahead! Maybe you're in the middle of a fight and feel that clothing is too cumbersome. You can put on make-up, put clothes on and take clothes off, kick over a bucket, slap a succubus' ass.
Don't go too crazy, though. If it's a bit outlandish then unfortunately I might not be able to use it. Other than that, be creative guys and gals!

Perks/Passives

Spoiler

Magical Sensitivity: Allows you to see magical strengths and weaknesses of beings and certain objects while making your erogenous zones much more sensitive, increasing arousal and pleasure at a faster pace.

Magical Sensitivity (Threads): Thanks to an experiment done by Jazra you can now see the magical threads that are the blood of magic in the world, and can possibly manipulate them.

Source of Energy: Magical monsters and beings that feed from your essence (blood and sexual secretions) gain more energy than normal from you and also suffer a short term power boost.

Essence of Absorption: Thanks to receiving the “essence” of countless individuals many, many times, you have discovered a peculiarity about yourself. You have a certain trait of magical beings and monsters that allows you to absorb the magical energy from sexual secretions, and maybe even blood (?), from people to give yourself some energy and restore your MR. Also, it accelerates your healing slightly and you find you can now sustain yourself wholly off of the essence of others similar to magical beings.

Dancer: Dancing comes naturally to you and, while it may not have uses in combat or when talking to someone, you find you can learn dances by seeing others dance or learning descriptions of dance.

Mental Quickness: You're a quick thinker when it comes to solving problems and smart to boot! If you're in a pinch you can easily notice potential escape routes, item and weapon combinations, optimal tactics to attack and defend in combat, how best to enter a building, etc. (I'll give helpful information and suggestions on how to handle situations, but not too much).

Charismatic: If you've got it, flaunt it! You know you're pretty, and you've always been a leader. You can use your feminine wiles to seduce both men and women alike and persuade them to your line of thinking, or you can use your natural charisma to rally troops into battle and improve morale with your strong words and character! Heck, you could probably charm the doors of Mordor open and simply walk in! (Increase Charm skill by 1 rank, people will like you more, and desire you more, you will be more inspiring to others when you speak, and you’re naturally sexier).

Feedback: When you get too close to rifts there's a chance that you will lose 10 MR and deal minor health damage. Health damage will never kill or knock you out.

Milk Addict: You’ve drunk a lot of milk and you have developed a preference, close to a need, for the thick, creamy substance. You’ll still drink other liquids, but you greatly prefer milk for some reason if given the choice. You’ll find that you have a craving and thirst for milk and, while no negative health effects will occur if you don’t get some, you’ll find that you’ll perform better slightly in all the things you do for a time.

Heart of Gold: You are an extremely kind and caring individual; you absolutely love to help children and those in need. You give of yourself freely to others and ask for nothing in return and always try to be a good person no matter what. You also offer to help, even when it was never asked of you to begin with. Loving and caring is second nature to you; you are compassionate, loving, and serene and as a result more people will like you and it will be easier to charm others because of your gentle and loving nature.

Rift Travel: You have discovered the power, whether from being Rift Touched, the silver bracelet, or a combination of both that you can now travel through rifts to the Rift Plane. The Rift Plane is a pocket dimension where time has no meaning and you cannot die from lack of nutrition; if you leave the Rift Plane time will resume as normal. From the Rift Plane you may travel through other rifts scattered about the pocket dimension that are connected to the real world rifts, allowing you to travel over vast distances so long as you have discovered the rifts for each location. I.E. Say you come into contact with a rift in Kilnhaven, Eborthia and a rift in Lumin, Eborthia. You can jump into the Kilnhaven rift and come out the Lumin rift with virtually no time passing between the two. There are also other rifts that may allow you to gain unique powers if you find them…

Mental Fortitude Expert: As a result of training with Astraea you have developed an expert understanding of shielding your mind against mental probes and attacks, as well as having majorly increased your natural magical reserves in the process. You can withstand basic, mild, and sometimes major levels of mental assaults, but anything higher or prolonged and you will not succeed.

Increased Attraction: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now people find you more attractive than you originally were. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn).

Increased Persuasion: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now you’re slightly more persuasive in conversations. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn)

Quicker Reflexes: You received a blessing at the temple of Lequis on your undergarments and now you have slightly faster reflexes, allowing you to dodge attacks better and avoid danger. (Requires Lequis Blessed thong, garter belt, bra, and stockings being worn).

Camouflage: You received a blessing at the temple of Yyssbo on your Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat which allows you to blend in with your surroundings when sneaking and remaining stationary or moving slowly. Any high profile action such as attacking, being attacked and hit, running, being bumped into, etc. will break the effect. Moderately improves sneaking. (Requires Yyssbo Blessed Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat being worn). Not in effect.

Cat Legs: You received a blessing at the temple of Yyssbo on your Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat which allows you to fall from greater distances without taking damage. Falling from roof tops and other moderately high distances will result in no damage taken. Major and Extreme distances will still result in damage or death (Don’t jump off cliffs or off really tall buildings!) (Requires Yyssbo Blessed Midnight Black Hooded Trench Coat being worn). Not in effect.

Dual Wielding Master: You have a extreme amount of experience wielding two weapons at once. Dual wielding allows you to attack with two one-handed weapons at once, essentially doubling the damage you do. At present you are extremely skilled and find it easy to hit enemies in combat without any negative effects to your chances to hit. You don’t need any more practice to wield two weapons at once effectively.

Pleasure Resistance Master: You have learned to resist pleasure at a masterful level, and are capable of maintaining your cool under extreme sexual pleasure. However, only the most extremely skilled partners and/or very prolonged pleasure break down your resistance, though you can maintain your cool for a very long period of time.

Dexterity Trained – Flexibility and Ranged Hits: You’ve been trained by Delilah on how to be more dexterous. While it’s not the full dexterity workout, it does allow you to perform hits better with ranged weaponry. You’re also more flexible as a result, just like a gymnast or contortionist!

Blessing of Kramulet: You’ve received a blessing at the temple of Kramulet on yourself, permanently increasing your MR by 30 and gaining the ability to learn magic from magic crystals at a much faster rate than normal.

Blood Magic: You’ve learned to use the dangerous art of blood magic, allowing you to draw on your very life force to cast spells instead of from charges or your magical reserves. Life drained is proportional to the strength of the spell via magical reserves used. The more magic required the more life drained – be warned as this can kill you if you’re not careful!

Evasive Techniques: Delilah of the temple of Domina has taught you the art of evading enemies, both in and outside of combat. Gives a minor boost to dodge and sneak at all times.

True Heart: You’ve completed the trials at the temple of Domina and have found your true heart. Your heart and soul are aligned, which has given you greater confidence, self-assurance, and strength of character. It will be nearly impossible for others to try and change you as a result, unless of course you absolutely want it. Moderate boost to mental fortitude.

Skin-Walker: You’re blessed bodysuit, blessed at the temple of Domina, has seven unique attributes tied to the blessing. On top of being nearly indestructible and capable of keeping you and itself clean. The blessings allow Skin-Walker to become nearly any article of clothing, within reason, changing its shape through your will and imagination. When worn you also receive the boon of increased physical damage resistance (mild), increased magical/elemental damage resistance (mild), increased physical damage dealt (mild), and increased magical damage dealt (minor), your footsteps are completely silent when worn. The final blessing will allow the suit’s power to increase when you sleep with ten different people up to a total of one-hundred different people, but only if suit is worn. (Sex Counter: 31/100) (Requires Skin-Walker being worn)

Increased Health: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit has given you a moderate boost to your natural health, allowing you to take more blows before being killed or knocked out. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Major Barrier of Avoidance: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit has been blessed with a major barrier that warps harmful attacks around you, thus dealing a major blow to enemy hit chances. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Hardiness: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s outfit has been blessed to give you a moderate increase in your resistances against poisons, diseases, and negative status ailments both natural and magical, meaning you’re less likely to contract a disease, be poisoned, or suffer negative status effects during combat. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Majorly Lowered Sexual Inhibitions: Your Dwynvel blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s outfit has been blessed with the effect of lowering your sexual inhibitions when worn, making you much more receptive to sexual advances and making you much more likely to blindly accept such advances regardless of who is making advances, of the time of day, and of where the advances are taking place. Those making such advances will also seem much more attractive to you. (Requires Dwynvel Blessed Amazonian Veil Dancer’s Outfit being worn) Not currently in effect

Re: Rift Touched

Sex Perks/Passives

Spoiler

Extreme sexual experience: You’ve had sex many, many times and been in enough sexual situations that you know how to please yourself and pretty much all sexual partners well with extreme skill. You are nearly incapable of being embarrassed by things of a sexual nature and even the most extreme of circumstances won’t make you flinch. You’ve accepted your sexuality entirely and are open to any sexual play of a vanilla nature, and almost all of taboo sexual play as well. Only the absolute most borderline of sexual play and situations will deter you (and if it deters you than it must be pretty wild or terrible!).

Nymphomaniac: You aren’t just a huge slut, you’re a nymphomaniac! It’s a simple fact that you like sex of all kinds, and you yearn for sex. As a result of your extremely sexual ways you have an extremely highly increased sex drive and find that you get aroused very easily, and you think in more sexual ways almost all the time. You also feel no shame at sexual situations, and in fact you will crave sex and be ready for sex at any time.

Enhanced Arousal: As a result of your extreme sexual ways and the constant sex you’ve been having, and maybe as a result of the tentacle pod, you find that you are much more easily aroused and that you think about and want sex more often than ever. When not otherwise preoccupied i.e. fighting, exercising, training, etc. you’ll think about sex and become aroused. Better get laid fast or masturbate before it becomes a problem!

Vaginal Experience: You have extreme amounts of experience with vaginal sex and feel right at home with being penetrated. You can receive a great deal of pleasure, and give pleasure in return to any sexual partner penetrating you. With so much use of your vagina you have developed a tendency for it and love to have sex using your main sexual organ. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Cervix Penetration: As a result of having so much sex with your vagina you are now capable of having your cervix penetrated, which will also give you and your partner a great deal of pleasure.

Vaginal Vibrations: You’ve become very attuned to your vagina, what with all the sex you’ve been having using it. As a result you can now control the muscles of your vaginal walls, to an extent, and vibrate them slightly to increase the pleasure both you and your penetrating partner feel.

Magical Vagina: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving vaginal pleasure: The Magical Vagina (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at using your main sex organ and are so in tune with your love tunnel that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your passage that enhances the pleasure you can give and receive when being penetrated. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Altered Vagina: You have had your vagina altered so that you are always tight no matter what. Not only that, but when you are penetrated vaginally your vagina will mold itself to the penetrating object which makes you a perfect fit for anything and also greatly increasing the pleasure you and your partner both feel.

Vaginal Fixation: You’ve developed a bit of a vaginal fixation with all the “objects” going into your love tunnel all the time. As a result you like having things inside your pussy and, when you do, you find that you will perform slightly better in all things that you do. You’ll also find that you’re vagina will be wet more often than not when not in life threatening situations.

Anal: You have an extreme amount of experience using your anus when it comes to sex and as a result you can receive a great deal of pleasure from using it and know how to please your sexual partners very, very well with it. As a result of your continued anal play you find that you absolutely love using your anus during sex and have developed a tendency for it, loving to have your anus used during sex. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Anal Vice: Your love of anal sex has helped you develop a sexual technique that will allow you to clamp down onto a penetrating object using your anus, increasing the tightness of your already tight hole. This increases your pleasure and the pleasure of those who penetrate you using your anus.

Anal Acceptance: You can take small to large objects up your butt with ease and no need for foreplay. Your altered anus allows you to now take on extra-large objects with no need for foreplay, meaning any size will work!

Magical Anus: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving anal pleasure: The Magical Anus (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at using your backdoor and are so in tune with your bum that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your anus that enhances the pleasure you can give and receive when being penetrated. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Anal Fixation: You’ve developed a bit of an anal fixation with all the “objects” going into your backdoor as of late. As a result you like having things up your butt and, when you do, you find that you will perform slightly better in all things that you do. You’ll also use your anus when masturbating as well from now on.

Altered Anus: You’ve had your anus altered allowing you to take most objects up your butt with ease and no need for foreplay. You also have a larger behind as a result.

Oral: You’re the best at using your mouth to please your sexual partners. So good, in fact, that you can bring any sexual partners to orgasm very quickly using your masterful techniques. You also find that you can’t get enough of using your mouth during sex and have developed an oral fixation. You love giving head and having something in your mouth and down your throat. You might even start developing some unique perks as a result of continued use…

Cum Addict: You love, bordering on needing, the taste of cum and you can’t get enough of being covered in cum as a result of your constant oral performances and situations where you have been climaxed on. You love to drink down cum whether it is semen, female ejaculate, or some other sexual fluid and you love to be covered in it. You will find that you will have a thirst and craving for cum and, while no negative health effects will happen if you don’t get it, you will find that you perform slightly better in all the things you do for a time when you get it.

Oral Vacuum: With your superior oral skills you have learned how to increase the pleasure of those lucky enough to be on the receiving end of your work. You’re able to use the vibrations from your mouth and throat while simultaneously increasing the pressure and tightness of your mouth to bring extreme pleasure to an individual, bringing them to climax in a matter of seconds.

Magical Mouth: You’ve learned the ultimate in giving oral pleasure: The Magical Mouth (quite literally)! You’ve become so proficient at giving head and are so in tune with your mouth that you’re able to focus your magic and release tiny bursts of magical energy inside your mouth that enhance the pleasure you can give both when giving head or kissing. The great thing about this is that since you’re releasing magic inside your body, it’s quickly reabsorbed so that you don’t lose any magic from your reserves! Pleasurable and efficient all in one package!

Oral Fixation: You’ve developed an oral fixation with all the “things” you’ve been sucking on, licking, and putting in your mouth. As a result you will put things in your mouth and suck on them, such as your fingers, or chew on things, such as quills or small objects.

Breast Play: You love breasts; they’re simply wonderful bags of fun. You like to suck on them, drink from them, snuggle up to them, and play with them. You also like having your own played with and have even learned how to use them to please your sexual partners.

Lactation: Your breasts can now lactate thanks to an alteration you had done at the temple of Domina. Your breasts are now larger and are capable of producing milk if sucked on or if brought to orgasm, and the supply will never run out for long if drained.

Titjob Professional: You’ve learned how to give expert titjobs as a result of your love for using them during sex! As a result you can now bring your partners to climax easily with using only your tits!

Boob Fascination: You love breasts so much that you are completely fascinated by them! When given the chance, you’ll be a real pervert and try to grope and play with breasts! Sometimes it might be your own, and sometimes it might be someone else’s! You’re smart, however, and won’t try to do it so blatantly in public…unless a particularly delicious pair of breasts are presented to you!

Boob-gasms: It turns out that your enhanced sensitivity makes it so you can have orgasms just from breasts stimulation alone. Isn’t that nifty?

Ear-gasms: Your natural heightened sensitivity allows you to have orgasms from having only your half-elf ears stimulated. Weird.

Ass-gasms: Because of your increased natural sensitivity you find that you can receive orgasms solely from having your anus played with or penetrated. Who needs pesky vaginas anyways?

No gag-reflex: Thanks to Lula’s help you know how to properly control your gag reflex, allowing you to deep throat with ease, or put other large objects down your throat.

Voyeurism: You watched other people have sex from a distance and you really, really like it. You like watching others have sex and get highly aroused by the act. You’re close enough that you might be considered a peeping tom!

Exhibitionism: You have bared yourself in all manner of situations and you love to expose your body. You feel absolutely no shame from the act, and in fact you rather enjoy it and prefer walking around in barely any clothing or none at all.

Exhibitionist at Heart: You love exposing yourself a whole lot. You’ve done it so much and like it just as much that you feel completely confident exposing yourself no matter what. In fact, if you don’t wear scant clothing or nothing at all then you just don’t feel right. While nude or in scant attire you’ll find that you’re more charming, more aroused, and people and enemies are more distracted.

Less is More: You absolutely love showing yourself off, and as an unexpected result you find that when you wear nothing at all, or very little, that you can move and dodge attacks slightly better than when covered in less revealing outfits.

Exhibitionistic Power: There’s nothing wrong at all with your body, or anyone else’s for that matter, and you love to show it off to others! You also don’t really like clothing all that much and prefer to be naked, or wearing hardly anything, if at all possible. You won’t suffer any negative consequences if you are clothed, but when you aren’t wearing any clothing, or very little, then you’ll find that you can focus better. You’ll find that, with your better focus, you’ll be better at virtually everything you do by a small margin. Now get out there and flaunt what you’ve got!

Woman Lover: You love being with women…in more ways than one, and have learned how to please women extremely well and you know what women want. As a result, when having sex with women you can bring them greater pleasure. You can also charm and seduce women better, and you may even be able to seduce women that might not usually want to be with another woman.

Humiliation: You have been in degrading and humiliating situations and have had degrading and humiliating things happen to you, whether from extreme situations or over time, and as a result you derive great pleasure and arousal from being degraded and humiliated. You also find that you like to degrade and humiliate others in various ways, though not as strongly as being humiliated yourself.

Coarser Language (sex only): As a result of the dirty talk and humiliation you’ve endured and dished out, you now find that you talk a little coarser, but only during sexual situations. Nothing too bad, a fuck here, a shit there, but nothing too over the top or outside sexual situations. If you continue, then you might find yourself cursing like a sailor before long…

Bondage Submissive: You’ve been bound and had sex with one or more dominant partners many times, and perhaps in extreme circumstances, and as a result you find you love to be in submissive bondage roles. You will always prefer to be tied up in nearly any bondage situation and will comply with the demands of more dominant sexual partners easily when tied up, and you may even comply with some submissive partners as well. It’s in its complete stage; there’s no going back for you. If you’re tied up or there’s an option to be tied up, then you will always take it and be as submissive as possible.

Bound Arousal: You’ve been tied up a whole lot before and as a result you find that you’re more easily aroused and you have a higher sex drive when tied up. Works in tandem with other arousal and libido altering perks and effects.

Bondage Submissive’s Sixth Sense: You’ve developed a sort of sixth sense when it comes to being tied up in regards to your more dominant partner. Whenever you’re tied up you instinctually know what your dominant partner desires, and you will act accordingly to bring them the most pleasure possible.

Bondage Submissive’s Place: You’ve been tied up so much, and loving every second of it of course, that whenever you’re tied up from now on any and all sexual partners, whether dominant or submissive, will have total control of you. You realize that, when tied up, you feel happy and you give up control and agency of yourself to better serve those around you – you will comply with nearly all demands of your sexual partners and do as they please when tied up, bring them greater pleasure as well as yourself.

Submissive Bondage Trained: Delilah of the temple of Domina has taught you how to be the very best bondage submissive that you can be! Whenever you’re tied up you’ll automatically become extremely submissive, meek, obedient, be willing to serve other’s needs, and be ordered around without complaint…because you’ll love it so much!

Switch-Extreme Dominant (Normal): You have been both submissive and dominant in sexual situations and are capable of being one or the other should the situation call for it. However, you very much prefer being the dominant and have developed your dominance so that you can more easily make others comply with you. You are capable of dominating truly dominant, neutral, and submissive people – truly dominant people are much less troublesome now and the only way you’ll ever be submissive outside of bondage situations is if you allow it; you cannot be forced to be submissive.

Dominant Personality Plus: You’ve been dominant a whole lot lately, and as a result you’ve developed a sort of natural dominant personality. You’ll be much more dominant than those around you at all times, and more forceful and demanding of those around you, but not cruelly so thanks to your heart of gold.

Submissive’s Dominant: You might not be the most dominant person around, but you’ve found that with the right attitude you can dominant submissive people regardless of your own preference. With this you can exert your will on more submissive individuals and make them comply with your wishes both in and out of sex.

Unbridled Will: You are a dominant person, and as a result of your dominance your will has increased to fiery proportions. You will find that your mental fortitude is increased slightly as a result of your dominant independence, and that you have a much easier time dominating dominant individuals. Also, you have a bit of a fiery personality that shows itself from time to time.

Slut Trained: You’ve learned from the best resident slut at the temple of Domina on how to be a better slut! As a result you now act generally sluttier and suggestive in almost all situations and go out of your way to tease everyone around you, on top of thinking more about sex. You also have more stamina and endurance when it comes to sex before wearing out. Also, you may find that certain individuals are more forthcoming when you speak to them.

Permanent Sway: Thanks to Helena’s so called “Slut Training” you’ve learned how to act sexier and sluttier. As a result, you find that swaying your hips provocatively comes as second nature to you and you now have a permanent sway to your steps as a result. This’ll be sure to turn heads!

Slightly Lowered Inhibitions: Your inhibitions are lowered slightly thanks to your actions and you find that you don’t mind people getting “touchy” with you in intimate ways, so long as it’s not too extreme.

Sexual Preference: Bisexual – Lesbian: You identify yourself as a bisexual, though with more lesbian tendencies. You aren’t entirely sure if you’re truly lesbian, though you prefer to be sexually active with women more than men, and as a result you will find that you find women much more attractive and men less so. This includes futa individuals or those that identify as female.

Re: Rift Touched

Unfortunately he's *not* defenseless, even now. He's a very powerful mage, and 10 minutes has almost passed since Colette sealed his personal magic with her Rift ability, meaning he'll be getting the use of that magic back very soon. Hand him over to 'authorities', or whoever else, and all that will happen is that he'll get his own personal magic back and likely use it to escape while his escorts' guard is down.

As far as I'm concerned, A, just quickly slit his throat again and kill him before he has a chance to beg for his pathetic life further. And if any justification is felt to be needed Colette can give it calmly and sorrowfully (speaking to him, the crowed, or whoever) while he's bleeding out on the floor (and if he takes his sweet time dying, finish him off before the 10-minutes runs out if necessary).

Personally, I've never been one to buy into that whole "the goodie-goodie-hero can't kill the big baddie if they've 'surrendered', else it makes *them* the bad guy!" mindset. Colette's not going to suddenly be consumed with bloodlust, she's not going to go on a rampage and start killing every noble/leader that acts like a jerk sometimes or doesn't necessarily have the 'best interests of the common-folk' in mind. She's putting an end to the evil, murderous misdeeds and tyrannical ambitions of a monster who has killed and tortured countless innocent people - not only prior to this battle, but in it as well, either personally or 2nd-hand via his minions - and likely wouldn't hesitate to do so again if he managed to get away somehow.


Anyway, once Arlandus is taken care of, H, help heal folks however she can.

I agree, but it needs to be castration and death.
