Lee Tae-gun appears in the foyer of his isolation site, his forced smile melting away with his composure, and he doesn't make it to his bedroom before collapsing.

That dungeon is going to be upgraded to A-rank once he has enough self-possession to write a report. It was one of the hardest dungeons he's done recently, and it was thrilling and exhilarating and dangerous and he had to self-reinforce to the point of nigh-invulnerability multiple times to survive it and he was Lee Tae-gun throughout, this is what he lives for, but now the amount of backlash he's under means it was all he could do to teleport away and get back home before he got rid of all of his clothes in desperation.

His whole body is flushed, his skin tingles, his cock is full mast and he's leaking precum on the floor, his hands are actually shaking and he comes as soon as his hand makes contact with his shaft. That doesn't stop it, though, since a side effect of this backlash is that there's just no such thing as a refractory period for Lee Tae-gun, which is grand, really, except for how it just means he's still a horny mess who can't even go as far as grabbing something, anything to stimulate himself beyond what just his hand can do. No lube, either, so he can't even finger himself, he can just jerk himself off and pinch his nipple and try to drag himself slowly in the direction of something more.

이태건

"The Eroguide"

LVL: 2 (200 / 500)

LVL / Level: The quantified totality of the abilities granted you by the Erogame. The effect of this characteristic goes beyond just the 5 extra stat points you get per level, and the additional perk point you receive every 5th level. You can increase your level by completing the quests the Erogame offers you, or by causing romantic and sexual events to happen to you or around you. The more difficult the challenge, the greater the rewards.

Stats

BKL: 241 / 8580

BKL / Acute Backlash Your acute backlash capacity is your BOD multiplied by your PRV, multiplied again by your ERO. Many of your abilities will increase your current backlash; you might think of it as your "mana pool", if you were inclined towards that kind of needlessly ludic framing. As you accumulate backlash, you will, well, accumulate backlash: your LST will gain temporary "phantom" points at thresholds determined by current modified LST multiplied by current number of phantom stacks, capped at +50, which will increase the intensity of your sexual desires without the actual stat's accompanying ability to deal with those feelings, in addition to any other effects.

BOD: 33 (+)

BOD / Body: Your physical attractiveness, and other biological capabilities. At higher levels, your body becomes able to enact more exotic erogame events. You can increase this stat through exhibitionism, and other acts that invoke the pure beauty and power of your physical form.

LST: 8 [20] (+)

LST / Lust: The intensity of your sexual urges, and how easy it is to get you going. You gain in this stat while experiencing sexual urges that are unusually intense or that go on unusually long.

SED: 5 (+)

SED / Seduction: Your ability to seduce others, to pique their interest and arouse their desire. You can increase this stat by arousing the romantic interest or sexual desire of others, and successfully pursuing them or being caught.

FUK: 19 (+)

FUK / Fucking: Your ability to perform in bed and give others pleasure… or other sensations. How do you increase this stat? Take a fucking guess.

PRV: 26 (+)

PRV / Perversion: Your descent into the world of naughtiness, fetish, deviance, and corruption. You can increase this stat by looking for opportunities to get even kinkier.

ERO: 10

ERO / Erogame Logic: The extent to which the world will bend---or can be bent by you---to create romantic and sexual situations in defiance of probability. Or at higher levels, physics. If you keep pushing probability to its limits, then probability will learn to be a bit more flexible down there, relax and take it in easier. You cannot actively increase this stat; it tracks your character progression.

Unallocated Stat Points: 10

Money: ₩70,000,000,000

Description:

Our hero is Lee Tae-gun, Korea's most powerful and famous combat esper. His only perceptible flaw is his difficulty listening to his heart (and his loins), but with the power of the Erogame—

Okay, no, you know what, fuck that. You are a man so self-repressed we've had people on multiple levels of reality begging us for weeks to figure something out for you. The only times in your life you ever smile are when you're being photographed, and it's like some cruel god brought a bank teller to life. It is morally offensive to us on every possible level that you never enjoy anything despite being a world-famous celebrity millionaire with superpowers. People would kill to sleep with you, and for some of them, it would qualify as a lifesaving medical intervention. So we're here to get you a life. And we're not waiting until you sort your head out to do it.

A BOD of 33 means you're one of the hottest people on the planet, but you knew that. We also know you're not going to focus on this, and that's OK, we're also much more concerned about the mess that is literally everything else about you. For now.

A LST of 8 means you're boring, but this number is, for the record, a lie. Sure, when you're completely free of acute backlash you're not really interested in sex, but when was the last time that happened? And if it's up to us, it's not gonna stay this low for much longer.

A SED of 5 means lol. lmao. So, step one of trying to get people to like you — not even just to have sex! — is to say words. Once you've mastered that art, we can get to saying words that mean things. Baby steps, though, alright? We wouldn't want to go too crazy here and get all the way to sentences before you're ready for it.

A FUK of 19 means that, due to one extremely action-packed week and the succeeding year or so, you're approximately the best lay wherever you go, so long as you don't go anywhere too crowded. We are in fact grudgingly appreciative of this, but you have several coworkers who can do better than you and it's kind of embarrassing, given how good you COULD be.

A PRV of 26, on the other hand, is a lot more respectable. There are probably two people in all of Quasar kinkier than you (we're not telling you who, but Park Yoo-min is not one of them), and almost everyone else would find your wilder fantasies somewhere between terrifying and strangely compelling. And you like that.

Status Effects

Chronic Backlash [2.25e9 stacks]: You're lucky we're not using signed integers, gunny-bunny. That is to say, you are so devoted to not allowing yourself to be happy that you are operating under a level of physiological strain that would have killed any other human being two years ago, and would've killed you in two more absent our intervention. Correlates of this include muscle tension, constant low-grade agony, and decreasing cardiac function.

Skills

Erogamer's Body (Lvl MAX): The biological ability to live your life as an erogame. Venereal disease doesn't exist for you, or periods or pregnancies or yeast infections. Arbitrarily large appendages can fit inside any of your orifices. You heal from all marks with a good night's sleep, ready for the next day's adventures. Other aspects of this skill depend on the BOD stat.

Erogamer's Soul (Lvl MAX): A different player might have received an Erogamer's Mind skill to unlock their potential and allow them to play the game as it is meant to be played. Either you really didn't want that, or your mind was already porny enough to impress the Erogame. This core skill only prevents your mind from being fundamentally and permanently damaged by extreme sexual experiences, and allows you to make voluntary use of the FUK, SED, LST, and PRV stats.

Erogamer's World (Lvl MAX): The consent of reality to live your life as an erogame. People are never too preoccupied to consider sex or romance, not while you're around. Bystanders won't ignore what you do, but they're unlikely to actually stop you. Those who do decide to involve themselves are drawn into the logic of the Erogame. If you go far enough that an authority sees no choice but to intervene… they won't treat you as a simple criminal. Other aspects of this skill depend on the ERO stat.

Quis Ducit Ipso Duces? (Lvl 1): Generally, guiding helps others in a very specific sense. Whatever their backlash is: less of that. However, backlash isn't the only problem people can have! Even espers can get tired, or hungry, or not to put too fine a point on it, fucking frostbite. This skill will, when you guide someone, alleviate a little bit of whatever ails them. This skill synchronizes with your starting perk, and gains bonuses from SED.

Perks

Barebacklash: Using your power too much in one sitting will no longer backlash you so much that you can't think, but accumulating backlash over time can still do that. You're guided by having sex with anyone, esper or not, compatible or not; all sex feels like guided sex to you, but sex with actually compatible espers will guide you more than with other people. Other espers are more guided by sex with you than by sex with other, similarly-compatible espers, with the effect strength determined by your FUK. On the downside, masturbation can no longer get rid of your backlash symptoms, only render you temporarily coherent in spite of them. Sexual desire is now always a part of your backlash; you can reduce but not completely eliminate the extent to which it is by leaning into the other kinds, and the lust symptoms do not go away even with time unless you have sex with someone.
