There have been threads like this out before I'm sure, but after accidentally stumbling across a story like this, it got me thinking of a few ideas myself.  Anyway, the basic premise obviously would be some kind of board game gets bought, people gather to play it, and all kinds of crazy stuff ensues from there.  I've seen fantasy related ones before many times, and so I think it'd be fun to go for a more sci fi related take, but if others disagree we can stick to a more traditional fantasy related thing, either way works for me.  Anyway, everyone would start out as plain ol regular humans regardless of what way we take things but later, who knows. :D  So, without further ado, let's see what kind of trouble we can stir up.

There would probably be a minor system in place to allow people to try to 'resist' some of the decisions that the board game comes up with, (all of which would be within people's O/Os of course,) and some minor stat tracking, but nothing serious beyond that.  If anyone has any ideas for anything that might work, I'd love to hear it or we can just create our own little system for this.  It'll be more so nothing is lost more than anything lol.  Anyway, on with the show!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For the system itself, I figure the game has three levels to start.  'Foreplay', or the beginner level or whatever, would just to get things started.  Minor sexual acts and changes to people, etc.  Maybe the clothes start to come off or public masturbation or whatever is required at this point.  After a certain point, then we'd hit the next level and so by the third, everyone's most likely been altered in several ways and have engaged in at least some heavy bondage or something lol.  That's just a quick and messy example, but that's the gist of what I figure how this would play out if it works anyway.  Minor stats such as Will, Intelligence, etc would be more to track personality and physical changes than affect die rolls, if we use a die anyway.  It's not a race to the finish, it's more just to have fun but again this is all speculative at the moment.  What do you guys say?

[b]History;[/b]  (Include interests, hobbies, and anything else that you can think of that might make coming up with stuff for the game that much easier besides what I can come up with from my own twisted imagination.)


This can take place at a friend's house or if someone wants to offer up a mansion for their history where everyone assembles, that's perfectly cool too.  I just figure whatever the case, everyone knows everyone else or has seen them around town or something like that.  Beyond that, the setting itself would be a small town or near a city or whatever, but that won't be important so much as the game itself obviously.  I won't be making a character unless we don't have enough people to play otherwise.  I'll be controlling the game and whatever comes out of it, if anything does anyway.  I figure if I made a character as well, it'd just make things a little unfair unless someone helped with any NPC monsters or demons or whatever that might pop up, which I'd be cool with if someone wanted to help run this with me.

Sounds fun! I'm certainly interested. How wold you make it a sci-fi theme, though?

Vergil1989

I'm not entirely sure to tell the truth lol.  I guess instead of things like demons, magic, and stuff like that, it'd be more aliens and DNA recombination and stuff instead.  :D

I think the reason why such stories are usually firmly in the fantasy realm is because it's easier to accept it when it's fantasy -- then anything that doesn't make sense, like why such a game exists in the first place or how exactly the transformations take place can be handwaved away with "it's magic," and that's all the explanation needed. With sci-fi there's usually a demand for some sort of explanation: Why is this happening, and how is it happening? It can be a bit of a hassle, especially if you like me never figured out much science-y stuff and aren't good at convincing technobabble.

I suppose, if you want to make it easy, the game could be some sort of alien experiment, but I'm not at the moment sure what the aliens seek to gain from making a group of humans play a game like this...

Vergil1989

Good point.  Ah hell with it, we'll stick with fantasy because you're right, we'd have to explain damn near everything otherwise.  So fantasy it is then.

Well, that doesn't put any damper on my interest.  :-)  I love fantasy

Vergil1989

Good to hear. ;D  I have another person through PMs that's shown interest, her name is Jayna.  Unless we get another person interested by the time the weekend's over, I'll just have you and her in a three player game if that's cool.

Huh, might be a cute game to try with Fate.

What systems (or kinds of systems) are we familiar with?

Examples, D&D, Cthulhu, Shadowrun, RISUS, Fate, GURPS
(respectively, d20, d%, dice pool, pickup, narrative, point buy)

ZephySempai

Like before, I am definitely interested in this idea :) Could you give a bit of clarification on how corruption works here? Would it be somewhere along the lines of a steady change, or possibly you strike a deal with demons?

Also, is it possible to start out already corrupted and evil?

Vergil1989

Nah, just a few regular people end up over their heads until the game is over.  Everything then goes back to normal, and they remember everything they did, which should make for a lot of awkward moments later lol.  Joking aside, it would be a steady change, mainly due to whatever effects we come up with along the way.  For example, someone might end up someone else's slave, and the master in question would probably end up enjoying the power but any other day they would never admit it.  If that made sense then I applaud you because I'm surprised I'm still coherent right now lol.

I don't want a rule heavy system, I have a hard enough time with GURP on a good day lol.  So anything quick and simple, easily manageable would be greatly appreciated and someone to help me run it would be AWESOME!

Since this isn't a big adventure thing and probably won't involve a lot of fighting monsters and saving the world, we probably won't need a lot of the usual game stats. So... how about something very simple, just specially tailored for this game?

Say... off the top of my head, every character gets a Willpower score from 1-20 and a Corruption value, starting out on 0% for all the players. Every transformation will require a Willpower check from the player, and if said Willpower check succeeds the character manages to resist the effects of the game. A failed Willpower check, however, means the character not only transforms but also takes some Corruption... this can be a set amount or decided by dice, depending on how long we want the game to carry on.

Let's say I have, oh, a Willpower of 10 and a Corruption value of 0% In my first round, the game tells me to, I dunno, strip down to my underwear. Rolling a 15, I fail my Willpower check, and so I strip... and my Corruption level increases by 5%.

And just for fun, perhaps the game becomes harder to resist the more corrupted you are... so for every 25% of corruption, your Willpower decreases by one point.

This is just an idea off the top of my head of course; if y'all hate it, or want to change it, or want to go with an established rules system, I won't be insulted if you way so. :-)

Vergil1989

That sounds pretty reasonable to me.  What so you guys think?  I at least had planned to add a minor point reward system that for each thing you willingly did, you'd be given points that can be spent to somehow change yourself or someone else before you roll again.  If  tried to resist, whether you failed or not, you still wouldn't get the points so if you agree, I think we can started soon.

      I'm think I'm going to sit this out.

      When I've got a few hours next week I might sketch out a set of rules with Aspects for when this comes up again but that'll be fer another game I expect.

      Good luck, space cadets.

Vergil1989

Well, we're sorry to see you go Roxy.  For everyone else, the character sheet is ready to go.

I'd love to join this game. I love transformations and system seems fine.


Jayna

Glad to see it is coming along nicely!

I am the other person he was talking about just so everyone knows!

I think that system is great and maybe if you do something willingly you get to make someone else take a minus to something, adds the aspect of messing with each other.

Ayahka

So, would it be okay if my character was something like this?

Name;Zelda "Zel" MacKenzie
Age;  19
Sex; Female
Appearance; (not using a pic, since I don't like using pictures of real people for RP purposes). Zelda is tall and willowy, with an oval-shaped face, dreamy blue eyes and straight, blonde hair that reaches down to her butt. She's soft and limber and moves with an elegant, cat-like grace. Her favorite outfit is a thin sweater (usually some pastel color) and a long, flowing, ankle-length skirt (usually with some weird patterns). She almost always wears a headscarf and goes barefoot when she can.
Eye Color; Blue.
Hair Color; Light blonde
Height/Weight; 5'11", 150lbs
Breast/Cock Size; 32B
Personality;  Generally a mellow, cheerful girl who seldom displays very strong emotions; it's rare to see her get truly angry or upset about anything. She's very creative and a little quirky; as an art student, she considers it her duty to be at least a little unorthodox and eccentric -- though admittedly she's not extremely willful and often just goes along with the flow. She loves drawing, writing and playing games.
History;  The daughter of a fairly successful business couple, Zelda has not inherited her parents' head for numbers but always been more of a dreamy, artistic type. She learned to read at an early age, and throughout her childhood she was seldom seen without her nose in a book -- except when she was pursuing one of her other hobbies, such as dancing, drawing or painting. It was perhaps at the age of twelve she decided that she wanted to be an artist, and she eventually got accepted into art school, where she spent a lot of time with various colorful people. She's fooled around with a couple of boys (and a couple of girls) in the past, but has never had a serious boyfriend and so far never really wanted one. 

Vergil1989

That looks pretty good Ayahka.  :D  Welcome aboard!

I forgot to mention, but I'd normally include a space for Sexual Preferences or Sexuality if you like, but that too can and will likely be changed throughout the story, so I didn't include it this time.  (That and I forgot lol.  I always seem to forget SOMETHING in the damn character sheet.)  Anyway, yeah, what you have is good Ayahka.  :D

I assume that everyone here is ok with most things that are likely to come up, but I'll still try to take O/Os into account where I can.  Even so, I do ask that you be a tad open minded just in case something does make you a little squeamish but hopefully that won't be a problem.  There won't be down and out torture or anything like that, but most anything else will likely be fair game.  This is a transformation/corruption style 'board game' after all.  ;D  But if something does come up that you just have to put your foot down or whatever, just shoot me a PM or leave an OOC message or whatever it takes to get my attention and I'll try fix things if I can.
