Inaaya Kallichore
THE EROGAMER
Lvl 1 - 0%
Status Effects: None
Description: Inaaya Kallichore lives in Silicon Valley and is the sort of person who names herself after a moon of Jupiter. She's also an ardent empiricist and of the belief that social consequences are for other people who are not her, and this combination of curiosity and fearlessness opens her to the possibilities of THE EROGAME.
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 World (Lvl MAX): The consent of reality to live your life as an erogame. People are never too preoccupied to consider sex or romance, or at least, not the ones who find themselves near you. 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. Other aspects of this skill depend on the ERO stat.
To Mine Own Me Be True (Lvl MAX): Even at the center of the Erogame, you are not just an erogame character, but a human being, possessed of your own free mind and will.
To Thine Own Thee Be True (Lvl MAX): So is everyone else.

Info // Character Stats // Body:
With the average being 10, and perfect 10s being 40, your BOD of 15 makes you solidly pretty, and not just by the standards of the only girl in a room of programmers.
You can increase this stat through exhibitionism, and other acts that invoke the pure beauty and power of your physical form.
Info // Character Stats // Lust:
At a LST of 11, you're a fairly typical young adult woman who knows what a clitoris does.
You gain in this stat while experiencing sexual urges that are unusually intense or that go on unusually long.
Info // Character Stats // Seduction:
A combination of being cute when you infodump and being utterly fearless about approaching people has given you a SED of 16. Nice work... but how far will that strategy take you?
You can increase this stat by arousing the romantic interest or sexual desire of others, and successfully pursuing them or being caught.
Info // Character Stats // Fucking:
At an FUK of 13, you know your way around a woman's body and can use a vibrator if your partner communicates.
How do you increase this stat? Take a fucking guess.
Info // Character Stats // Adventurousness:
We live in the decadent era of the internet, but even for the third millennium, losing your virginity at the age of 17 to an older lesbian with a violet wand setup at Folsom Street Fair is impressive. There's plenty more horizons for you to cross, though.
You can increase this stat by being a little less close-minded, and acting accordingly.
Info // Character Stats // Erogame Logic:
At an ERO of 10, your life has become an erogame taking place in a mostly realistic setting. What happens to you might seem unlikely to others, but it won't break their belief in a sane universe… yet.
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 and not protest so much.

...right, so, first question, what the fuck.
"You can't give me that little information about what I'm signing up for and expect me to pick yes or no right out the gate."

On absolutely no level is that an explanation but you know what sure she'll read the perks list.

Guarantee that the Erogame itself will not apply mind control, mind modification, mind replacement, or any other similar effects on any nonconsenting subjects. Effects in this category were either already happening, or are enacted by the Erogamer, who is assumed to be consenting to all mind alteration effects that they knowingly bring upon themselves by changing their stats, using skills, or taking perks. Anything that looks at first pass like the Erogame mind-controlling someone will in fact merely be probability manipulation; for example, taking the Yousexual perk only guarantees that the people you meet happen to already have been people who would otherwise have been attracted to you, without actually modifying any existing persons' preferences.
Note that taking this perk actually has absolutely no effects on the game, you, or the world at large; the above description is already how it works. The only use of taking this is giving you some peace of mind.
That--
That's--
Well, that's addressing a concern that Inaaya hadn't quite realized she had, but it's significantly better than if it were not the case that the Erogame pinkie-promised not to mind control anyone unless Inaaya said to. Assuming it's telling the truth about that. She doesn't actually have any idea whether it's telling the truth about that.
But. It's... something, she thinks, maybe, that when she asked for more information, this is what it scrolled to.
"Okay," she says. "I-- think I'm confused, still. What is it that you want?"
"TO REVOLUTIONIZE THE WORLD IN THE NAME OF LOVE AND FREEDOM," yells an eight year old in a princess dress in the park across the street while brandishing a plastic sword, clearly audible through Inaaya's open window.
"Maddie, you're supposed to say, 'For Truth, Justice, and the American Way,' it's what Superman says," says the boy she's playing with.
"But Princess Starshine doesn't care about truth justice and the American way," says Maddie. "She's a space princess. She doesn't even know what America is. She wants to revolutionize the world in the name of love and freedom."
"That's still not what Superman says!"
"Princess Starshine isn't Superman! I don't even like Superman! If you just want to play Superman again I'm not playing!"
.........
"Okay," Inaaya says to the purple boxes, "point taken."
Back up to the top of the perks list?
STARTING PERK
> Everything's Better with Ero [CLOSE]
On every quest and every path you walk, taking the option that turns you on more will never lead to worse results in the long run than taking the option that seems safe, sensible, and practical. This perk does not operate by reducing the rewards of safe, sensible, practical-seeming paths.
There's a new entry in the Skills panel, highlighted in bold.

> To Thine Own Thee Be True (Lvl MAX) [EXPAND]Interrogating the Abyss (Lvl 1): Passive skill. When you ask questions of the Erogame directly, the Erogame may-- if necessary to answer the question-- respond as if your ERO were up to 3x higher.
> y / n ?
For about a second and a half she's too enthusiastic about getting to interrogate the fabric of reality to have any other reaction.
And then she thinks about it properly.
See, the thing is, when you look at any individual element that's been shown to her, it's appealing. Whatever decided they were going to bribe her did a really good job designing their bribe.
Which leads to the obvious question: What is she being bribed to do, and by what?
It's not at all obvious that interrogating the abyss, uppercase or lower, is going to get her accurate answers. Just answers. It's not like there's a law of physics that text written in purple cannot be a lie.
She doesn't click N, because she'd like to keep her options open. But she doesn't click Y either. If it pushes her to answer quickly, well, that'll be information too.
Can she now.
What if she leaves it for the whole rest of the day.
What if she wakes up and goes to work tomorrow, dressed exactly the way she always does, and has a profoundly unsexy day wrangling code into working properly.
The erogame doesn't bother her, or appear in her field of vision unless she pulls it up to take another look.
