Roster Review: Were-creature Story Idea Development Poll
🕑 Added 2020-11-17 23:31:13 +0000 UTCUpdate: I added more options because your comments got me to ask the dangerous question. "Why not both?" [Insert El Dorado "Both" meme here] What do you think of having more options?
Here's a vote I'd like to open up in the next couple days. Comments encouraged!
Sometime in the next six months, I'm pretty sure I'm going to reach a good point to put "Remiel's Fall From Grace" or "Persephone and Tritonia" on pause for a bit. Both stories have major plot arcs that will likely be finished by that time.
I already have plans for a long project that I'd like to work on during that pause that synthesizes a bunch of ideas I've had over the last year.
Without any real spoilers, here's what I can tell you about it:
(Some of these details may change in development.)
It's going to be set in a tubepunk world that has the feel of a post-apocalyptic martial arts flick combined with contagious were-creature tropes and vault-like underground dwellings for humans who don't have the were-curse.
There's going to be a major theme of controlling and accepting one's bestial/animalistic side as well as trying to maintain inner tranquility in the face of a chaotic world.
Magic can be harnessed by individuals or contraptions containing vacuum tubes leading to some rather mad-science-looking tech that sometimes incorporates people as a central component. Like a throne that helps power and target a giant Tesla coil defense post.
The main character's primary love interest is a herm centaur and the story will have hot sex, but the plot and the story world will take the front seat for this series. The main character's going to be caught up in the interplay between humans and those factions because right at the beginning of the story, she gets infected with the were-curse while being a member of the human's elite peacekeeping force.
For this story, whenever I'm waffling between a couple different possibilities, I'm going to try to put it up for a vote.
Today, what I'm waffling on is what the main character becomes when she fully transforms. As far as species, I keep seeing her as a herm were-dragon. Yeah, I'm a bit predictable sometimes. XD
What I mean by "fully transforms" is that most were-creatures go from human to anthro furry, but some people can go even further, often at the price of losing their self control. Typically, this is a bigger, tougher version of themselves that has less finesse and more bashing, but it can go in other directions.
For the main character's maximized form, what would you like to see?
9-foot-tall imposing anthro form: Pretty straightforward hulking out, but less stout than the hulk with more curves. Think She-Hulk. Does everything a humanoid-shaped person can do, but with a lot more oomph.
Big powerful dragon taur: Basically a sexy herm taur version of the Juggernaut. There's not much that she can't ram her way through. I'm thinking around the size of a minivan/big draft horse with her head sitting up a bit higher than one.
Massive feral dragon: Mythological creature of doom. Talented at leaping, biting, and slashing things. I'm thinking this form would be the size of a conversion van/SUV.
Both Huge Anthro and Taur: Tossing people around, or busting through gates.
Both Huge Anthro and Feral Dagon: Using a tree trunk as a club or scaly apex predator.
Both Taur and Feral Dragon: Sometimes she needs a taur's unstoppable force. Sometimes she needs to pounce on things and destroy them. She shifts into the form best suited to the situation.
All three forms: Each form has its use, why not have the main character able to turn into all three of them?
