Harlot Spotlight - Nurse Honey
🕑 Added 2024-11-08 14:10:55 +0000 UTCA slight change of plans for the harlot spotlights this month. The NPC art batch has come back from Marwmellow. Aside from The Madam, which I've already shown off and will be seen again fairly shortly once I put a title page together, these will be very previews. While I'll be adding their portraits to the HoHH 1.5 version as soon as I've fixed some other things, it will be a while before they get their actual harlot scenarios and pinup art to go with it. This also means I won't be including any scripts with these spotlights, because they aren't written yet. What I can do is cover what bits of lore I've worked out for the character as well as my ideas for what their scenario will be and where they will show up.
First up is fan-favourite Nurse Honey.
This is the same Nurse Honey from the Succubus Summoning series. How the universes link up is H-space and the Dominion of Lust are different names given to the same place (which I think most people have already figured out).
This probably isn't too spoilery as there were already hints in SS 201. Rosa and Verdé telling Phil they were just average succubi living out in the middle of nowhere – lies, blatant lies. All five are very powerful. Where Nurse Honey stacks up compared to The Madam is still not finalised. It's fairly close. Nurse Honey is another nuisance to The Madam, similar to Morticia Rose, in that she's gate-crashed her game and is an unwelcome presence in the House, although The Madam is much too polite to say that directly.
Nurse Honey's lore and mechanics line up nicely. In lore she loans out energy and then returns to collect – with interest – once the loanee lets themselves get overdrawn. Her major mechanic is to function as the House nurse. She cures ailments and also gives the player energy tonics to replenish their semen count.
However, all loans must be repaid... with interest.
How this will work in game is that the player will be able to use her semen replenishing services a set number of times safely. Once they go over that, she will claim them in a sexy Bad End.
I still haven't finalised the details, but I have some ideas.
First would be her harlot scenarios where she shows up on the stage.
These should be fairly free-roaming to line up with the fact she can basically do as she pleases in the House. So, like the other NPCs, she can show up in any round.
The idea I had was to give her multiple scenarios, or variations on her scenario.
The first is fairly benign and easy to survive, but she might not do anything more than a massage and nursing hand job. This might also be beneficial like Friesya Holstun's scenario.
The second is much more dangerous and much harder to survive. Full sex will be available in that one, but the player won't be leaving the room unless they meet some fairly strict conditions. In difficulty it will comparable to a high-tier harlot.
The third is her special Bad End triggered if the player uses her services too much. After sex, the player will get glooped like the warlock in SS 101.
Currently I'm not sure if the 2nd and 3rd scenario should just be rolled together. The reason I like them separate is to vary the Bad Ends. The overdrawn Bad End will be similar to her scene in SS101. The random scenario will see her just absorb the player into her directly. As the random scenario is survivable and the other one isn't, it will make a nice disguise to keep the player guessing whether they are about to Bad Ended when they see her turn up on the stage in later rounds.
Outside of the harlot scenarios, I did have an idea to give her a scene in her office. That was supposed to be triggered on the player getting overdrawn, which would then be followed by her showing up on stage for the next round as a forced pick leading to a Bad End.
That might be a little fiddly and also ruin the late round tension of keeping the player guessing as to whether Nurse Honey has shown up to collect.
I would like her to be able to do something sexy in her nurse's office, so I'd like to figure out how to add a scene here.
The other thing I haven't decided is how to determine the threshold for her showing up to collect. This could be a simple flat number and the moment the player goes over, she appears on stage. The other option is to put a percentage chance on it that increases depending on how 'overdrawn' the player gets.
Those are some ideas anyway. Current priority is to finish the mini-bosses. I might look to add her scenarios after that.
Art is by marwmellow.
I hope you like it. Let me know your thoughts on that and the scenario ideas below.

13 rounds is fairly short. With most harlots on average taking about 1-2 semen, players would probably only need to see Nurse Honey every 4 rounds or so to remain safely topped up. There probably isn't much leeway there on counts. Two top ups from Nurse Honey should be safe. The 3rd is in dangerous territory and the 4th should be game over. I'm not sure I'd want them to be hard game overs. I'd rather there was a percentage chance to it, so the player will start to feel nervous, but won't know for sure if Nurse Honey is going to show up. That adds an element of calculated risk to it. I'm currently tweaking how semen counts are handled for the 1.5 version. I'm removing all 'magic number' checks and having them go off a percentage of the max semen count instead. That way I can set that to a different value than the 10 of the original without breaking the scenarios. Once I have all the harlots in place I'll be going through and rebalancing the semen drained and portly gentleman payouts. I want to make sure it's possible to reach the end of 13 rounds with all factions without needing to use Nurse Honey a lethal number of times.

Nurse Honeys scenario is something we’re all looking forward to!

Multiple Bad Ends always appreciated ;) For some of her scenes it might be good if there is a “sweetener” (pun intended) like if the player survives they come out of it restocked and with cured ailments (for the higher tier). Potential for more medical fetish type stuff with the easier scenario though maybe that it would be too femdom for that stage. “The other thing I haven't decided is how to determine the threshold for her showing up to collect. This could be a simple flat number and the moment the player goes over, she appears on stage. The other option is to put a percentage chance on it that increases depending on how 'overdrawn' the player gets.” For the first option, would it be the total number of times the payer has used her overall or the total number he has used her recently (in which case it would be possible for them draw back from the debt threshold by avoiding her for a couple of rounds)? The second is a nice idea.
