 I have been kicking this idea around ever since I went to look up what Steampunk was and became intrigued with the idea of an alternate future reality where gears ie ..clockwork and steam was the inventors and tinkers top technology . So I got to thinking about how to incorporate that idea and combine it with a playground for such eccentric inventing types to come and let off a little steam and enjoy their various kinks that they might have on the carnal side of their lives . Below is what I managed to come up with ...hoping to find other individuals willing to help bring it to life so to speak .
 

  • Hoping to put a group together with a maximum of 12 players for a nice kick-off .
  • Game is open to all - sex of the player does not have to be the same as their player.
  • Would like applying players to be able to keep up with a posting schedule once every 3-4 days or more welcomed.
  • Detailed Posts are appreciated and a general length of two or more paragraphs gives others something to work with.
  • Going to hold the game to a light bondage orientation but don't mind a few characters geared that way.
  • All characters submitted should have some interesting kink or fetish they wish to explore.
  • Character Sheet including a pic of said character required and will be approved for admittance to the game.

Looking for the following  :

Inventors , Tinkers , Trade Style Merchants- In House , Apprentices,  Show Girls or Male Dancers , Bartenders, Waitress ...Security Guards, Cooks , Maids... others open for discussion .

If your interested in playing one of the NPC style characters ....ie ....Tom , Lee Chang, Harlots ....just let me know and we can work together to discuss this .

OOC Thread :




The pleasure Dome is a place on the outskirts of this society that is a modern day inventor's guild association . Inventors , Tinkers and Merchants come there to record their latest inventions , put them on display in a showcase type arena ...purchase trinkets , trade and socialize . It is a convention style atmosphere where one can let off a little steam , enjoy their carnal side with an anything goes atmosphere. Various interesting modes of transportation ...via , land , air and water are used to get to this isolated location and seems to be one of pride and competition amongst the guild members. 



All inventors and visitors are checked in by Tom and given a room and a pass card , purpose of the visit to the Pleasure Dome is stated and a weapons check completed . All firearms and weapons can be collected at the time of check out . Getting Mouthy with Tom would not be advised as most fear he is not all that sane and it is not uncommon for one to have disappeared on occasion upon visiting the Pleasure Dome ...those unlucky souls have their mode of transportation confiscated by Security and the wares sold off in a sweet auction.

Character Name : Carla Cabot Bloom (aka C.C)
Played by : Nim
Character Age  : 28
Character Role in game  : Doctor/Inventor of artificial limbs
Sexual Orientation : < Bi-sexual >    <Switch depending on her partner or mood at the time>

Interested Fetish or Kinks :
Carla has a fetish for ears.  She loves to bite, nibble, kiss, blow into, lick and play with ears in any other imaginable way possible.   So a warming to the wise.  Make sure your ears are clean when coming within 3 feet of the good doctor she does not take kindly to dirty ears. 

Character Personality :
Normally kind and caring.  Some would even venture to say absolutely lovable. But beware... antagonize or piss off at your own risk.  C.C does not get mad she gets even with a vengeance.
With a mean streak as deep as her capacity for love and tenderness.

Background Information:
Her grandfather being the recipient of an artificial leg, arm and hearing aid was Carla's inspiration and reason for becoming an inventor of artificial limbs and other medical devices.  Even at the age of six she had a skilled steady hand and often helped her grandfather make adjustments on the limbs he wore. 

By the age of 8, C.C had built her first robot who she affectionately calls Click.  Click has remained with her to this day as a faithful companion.  Helping her with the heavy lifting and sometimes helps with the construction of the artificial limbs and other devices she makes in her work shop which is attached to her medical offices. 

Her offices being located in The Pleasure Dome having been personally invited by the owner Lee Chang to set up shop in order to provide health care for his employees.  Which Carla had agreed to providing she was allowed to continue her own research into artificial limbs and other medical devices.  One rumor that was never quite squashed or swept under the rugs was that some of those who happened to cross Tom ended up in C.C's hands so that she could perform her experimental surgeries in an effort to perfect her equipment.  Of course that may have just been part of the scare tactics of the owner and upper management but one just never really knew did they.

On the rare occasions Carla does choose to leave the Pleasure Dome which she has come to consider her home her most favorite form of transportation is her Widow Steampunk Spider.  Which she makes a point of taking out at least every Sunday afternoon for a little spin around town.

minerva7790

Character Name: Selena Yttrium (pronounced "it-ree-um")
Played by: minerva7790
Character Age: 24
Character Role in game: Courtesan, seamstress (in both senses of the word, if you take her meaning)
Sexual Orientation: Bi-curious;  Switch (though more comfortable with being submissive). Whatever earns her the money.
Interested Fetish or Kink: Leather and silk. Though an odd combination, it becomes irresistable both to the eye and to the skin, when combined in the right proportions. The hard, rough leather, changing to smooth, satiny silk... It simply drives her crazy! Naturally, Selena has designed many an outfit like that, mostly for her own wardrobe. This fetish for both leather and silk translates in the bedroom as a love for light bondage in heavy leather belts and light silk scarves. Since Selena considers herself, above all, an artist, even play in the bedroom must be thus made into an art!
Description:
Alternate outfit (especially when hired as an escort to VIP customers, and needs to make herself more presentable)
Character Personality: Aloof and haughty, Selena looks down on the other serving girls at The Pleasure Dome. She considers herself superior to them because her mother was a courtesan before her, and she has therefore been training in her art since young. Selena, however, is smart enough not to let her displeasure show, especially not when Lee Chang, or other customers, are present. Ever a bright and inquisitive young woman, Selena reads in her spare time. Her favourite subjects of study are alchemy and anachropology.
Background Information: Selena was born to her courtesan and one of her many well-paying customers. If Irina Yttrium knew who Selena's father was, she never mentioned, determined to raise her child by herself. Young Selena knew better than to ask, too. And so, Selena was brought up surrounded by her mother's rich patrons, and learnt from a young age the art of conversation, dance, and dressing to enhance her appearance. When her mother was not around to take care of her, Selena was often left in the care of Irina's personal dressmaker, an elderly lady named Katherin whom Selena soon took a liking to. It was during Irina's long absenses, being a hired escort to some rich man or other, that Selena learnt to sew. With her eye for fashion inherited from her mother, and skill with the needle learnt from Katherin, Selena soon became a fair fashion designer. At the age of ten, Selena was making herself useful at the Pleasure Dome, repairing the torn clothes of the employees. By the time she turned fifteen, her entire wardrobe was filled with dresses of her own design and needlework. And when she was eighteen, and ready to debut as a courtesan herself, Selena was ready, too, to set up shop as a seamstress of her own. For a small commission for every dress sold, Lee Chang was happy to allow Selena a small showcase window, and a spare room adjoined to her own living quarters for her work...

#10
Character Name: Thaddeus Theodore Thudpucker the Third
Played by: Nos Corventius
Character Age: 30
Character Role in game: Master Gadgeter and Chief Navigator of the HMS Monsoon, an airship of the Sky Navy Corps. Here as a buyer and tourist.
Sexual Orientation: Dominant, Pansexual though leans toward Straight
Interested Fetish or Kinks: Electrical play, Flogging, Fisting, group scenes, and fucking machines.
Description: With his aviation gear on:

And without:

Character Personality: Thadeus is a light hearted and boisterous man with an easy nature that often makes people forget that He's both an officer and a coldhearted killer. He loves to be sociable and appreciates a bottle of rum, a warm and willing body, a fine piece of tech, a proper meal and good company, in that order.   
Background Information: Thadeus was born into a life of aristocratic duties and wealth he never wanted, longing instead for the freedom of the open skies. His father thought his sons intellect wasted on such nonsense and tried to teach him the ways of the gentry instead.  His mother and grandfather, Thaddeus Sr, However often indulged his interests, often sneaking the boy books on navigation, airships, aeronautic life, and gadgetry. Determined to prove, to his father, the worth of his dreams, Thaddeus built his own flight pack using a set of outdated blueprints from an old book. He was eight, and the resulting explosion cost him dearly. His entire right torso was damaged and while they managed to find his arm the shoulder elbow joint and hand all had to be replaced. With much of the tissue severely damaged even with the most skilled of surgeons and Techno-medics that money could by at the time he never fully recovered. Thaddeus has worn a hydraulic brace on the arm ever since to compensate. Despite the seriousness of his injuries he refused to give up and successfully built a fully functional flightpack of his own design, the very next year. Impressed by his sons willpower and obvious passion Thaddeus's father became one of the boys greatest supporters, helping him to get enrolled in the Royal Academy of Aeronautics and Engineers, and later the Air-Naval Institute. In both cases Thaddeus graduated at the top of his class, showing a knack for gadgeteering that one of his instructors described as "bordering on the supernatural."  Upon graduation Thaddeus rose through the ranks quickly, despite several reprimands for "drinking and conducting himself in a manner unbecoming of an officer."  He currently serves with dubious distinction upon the The HMS Monsoon. He is on leave however and has chosen to visit the "Dome" for both a bit of RnR and the chance to see and possibly purchase, new tech for his ship.

Very nice character minerva7790 .....well thought out .... a seamstress / courtesan sounds lovely . I did find a pic of a little boutique ...maybe she has a little store to sell clothing as well as mend things ...giving her a bit more importance to the owner . We can generate a thread then for your own private use as a suite that would include your bedchambers .  Giving you ample opportunity to peddle all your characters wares to the best of her abilities .

Welcome to the Game .






Ummm ...NosCorventius .......what an interesting character .....eccentric indeed and quite naughty . Hopefully he will bring one of his ...*coughs*  machines to demonstrate in the showroom . Kind of be like mechanical  Bull-riding without the Bull .  *coughs *  .

Sorry could not help myself ...  Welcome to the game .





Zillah

I love this idea. :) Here's my character ... just let me know if I need to change anything!

Character Name: Lilith Van Stratten
Played by: Zillah
Character Age: 26
Character Role in game: Inventor of artificial intelligence engines and mechanical humanoid simulacra
Sexual Orientation:  Bi-curious; Dominant
Interested Fetish or Kinks: Multiple sex partners
Description:



Character Personality: Lilith is a cold, analytical soul. Some say her inventions show more emotion than she does. She is incredibly curious, and obsessed with knowing how and why everything works ... and that means everything, no matter how small and trivial. She's also a perfectionist, everything must be done in precisely the right order, in the right way, or it's not acceptable to her.

A simple smile, for Lilith, is a huge show of emotion. She often seems detached and uncaring, but doesn't mean she is. Despite being a genius, she's socially awkward, and far more at home reading books or adjusting the gear ratios of a difference engine than making small talk with someone else. (Rumor has it, though, that when she takes a lover to bed with her - rare as that is - the icy wall of logic that surrounds her melts away, and she turns into a passionate, uncontrollable tigress.)

Background Information: Lilith is the daughter of Victor Van Stratten, a renowned scientist and inventor who was obsessed with travel to the stars. Her mother, Martha, died in childbirth. This left Lilith to be raised by her emotionally distant father, a few nannies who lived in terror of her father (they never lasted long, as they were treated badly and paid even worse) ... and by the vast libraries in her father's mansion. By the age of seven, Lilith had mastered the arts of calculus, physics, and chemistry; by the age of ten, she'd built her first calculation machine, called a difference engine, out of discarded parts from one of her father's navigation machines.

When she turned eighteen, her father announced that he'd be traveling to Venus in one of his rockets, and would be "home in a jiffy for tea". That was eight years ago. Lilith was a little sad, but had him declared legally dead so she could inherit his vast fortune. This in turn led to a multitude of suitors, all of whom Lilith keeps politely turning away, as she considers most of them her intellectual inferiors, and annoyances that keep her from her work.

Lilith is followed almost everywhere by a clockwork android of her own invention, one she's named Omega. Omega is her bodyguard and servant ... and, some whisper, her favorite lover.



Recently, Lilith came across journals in her father's mansion regarding his work on rockets, and his intended travels. Looking to recreate some of his experiments, Lilith grew frustrated when she realized she didn't have the necessary equipment, or knowledge, to do so. So, looking for help, she headed for the Pleasure Dome ... partly to find answers for her questions, but partly to find meet people so she wouldn't be so alone in her mansion anymore.

Mmmmm Lilith certainly is a lovely looking woman.  Licks lips.

I think a tad bit mentally unstable .....did you read ? or just drool over the picture .

Oh wait ...who am I talking to . Nevermind .

NosCorventius

Well this definately does look like it shaping up nicely, all these lovely women and me the only non-clockwork male here. Boy did I pick the right time for shore leave. LOL Oh and Sasha just because you mentioned it I had to share what I found. These are the real life first mechanical vibrators sold. They were used to treat female hysteria, a very common and serious medical ailment that could only be treated with pelvic massages to the point of paroxysm. This one was created by Dr. George Taylor in 1891, to be used in medical offices: http://27.media.tumblr.com/qUZ0jyiGPdrchlciuhlI6sFF_400.jpgWhile This one was the first availible, in 1902, for home treatment of this awful malady.:http://www.benettontalk.com/firstvibrator Talk about powertools in the bedroom! Totally gotta use these sometime during this game!!!

Will Edit tomorrow With a character.


To add to the Kink :   http://www.vibratormuseum.com/  ( Did a lot of study for one of my other D/s-m Bon games about the use of manual and assisted stimulation for the treatment of damn near anything that a woman could complain about during the turn of the 18oo's into the 19oo's. of course, being that it was a good and fun thing, and this being the U.S., we immediately stopped doing it because it felt good *frowns* I digress.)


Developing a nasty brain melt right now, But I am In.

Aw, thank you minerva! I love that pic too ... I've been waiting to use it for the right game, I think I found it!  ;D

Kirinis

Here's my character, is it workable or do I need to change some things?

Character Name: Daniel Vanderholt
Played by: Kirinis
Character Age: 29
Character Role: Gentleman Adventurer/Explorer & Chemist
Sexual Orientation: Bisexual and Switch
Interested Fetish or Kinks: Part of the reasons for his frequent expeditions into wild and exotic places is to find new exotic partners to couple with.  As long as it is animate and willing, so is Daniel.  Daniel also has a fondness for hair, especially long hair that has been well-treated and taken good care of.

Description:



Character Personality: Bold and adventurous, Daniel never backs down from the prospect of finding new things to experience.  At times, Daniel can be rather cavalier about his own life and of those who follow him, all sacrificed on the altar of the next thrill and high.  In contrast, his passions run deep.  Once he has found something or someone that caught his attention, Daniel will devote an inordinate amount of energy on them to the exclusion of all other things until he tires of them or his new toy breaks in someway or fashion.  When he does set aside his monomaniacal obsessions, Daniel is very easy to get along with and generous and free with most things.

Background Information: The son of a minor viscount, it was expected that like his forebearers that Daniel would join the Imperial service and fight for God and Country as an officer.  Instead, he settled for schooling at college before dropping out during his second year and mysteriously falling off the face of the earth.  The next time he was seen was a year later when he returned via steamship with a crate of botanical samples and relics liberated from some forgotten civilization lost in the darkest hearts of the jungle.  Daniel would embark on several of these yearlong expeditions before finally settling down long enough to sell his story to the penny-dreadfuls and establish himself as Daniel Vanderholt, Gentleman Explorer.

When he is not in the field on some expedition or another, Daniel can be found busy at work in his residence known as the Glass Jungle, a massive glasshouse devoted to housing all of the flora and fauna samples he has brought back.  A devoted chemist, Daniel has devised many an ingenious tincture, serum, and drug from experimenting on his exotic samples.  Some of his creations, Daniel has kept for himself while others he sells to any willing buyer.  It has been said that whatever the need, Vanderholt has the right solution for your problems. 

In particular, Daniel has entered a cozy agreement with Lee Chang and the Pleasure Dome to sell Chang some of Daniel's more potent concoctions like Auroch Drops ["Apply One Drop Orally For One Hour Of The Vigor and Vim Of An Auroch With None Of The Hair Or Horn"] and Tendervine Pacification Spray ["Stop A Raging Thug In His Tracks"] to name a few in return for an spare laboratory and storage space on the premises and along with some other never revealed provisos.
