((As I mentioned in the opening post, I scoured the other old Pathfinder games looking for great ideas I could place into my own. One word stood out - Nutrion! It's pretty much exactly what I imagine the 'vore points' will go towards purchasing, and I've put the first draft of the vore point stuff in this post, so take a look at it! Also, give me your input, let me know if the prices seem too wild or not wild enough! I'd eventually like to include stuff like actual feats and all, but I'm not entirely sure how to balance it. As mentioned previously, I'm insanely new to the whole Pathfinder thing, and sort of figuring stuff out as I go, for better or worse. So...Input appreciated!))<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"> The next morning, just before dawn...</span><br/><br/>Extricating herself from the tangle of limbs that she, Cyria, and Johan had ended up in the prior night was no small task...especially when her stomach was still so full, and she did not wish to wake anyone. Yet, she felt...good. No, 'good' didn't quite describe it. She felt GREAT. Better than she had in a long, long time. There was something so utterly thrilling about actually eating someone. Not just practicing it, but DOING it. Not to mention, there was a sort of...well, SOMETHING she could feel. Something in her that sort of...just made her feel a bit stronger. Maybe it was just getting a good meal? Who knew. Regardless, as she admired herself in the mirror, Naji couldn't help but like what she saw. She was still skinny, maybe even 'sickly' by human standards, but she had noticably gotten a little more thickness to her arms and legs, maybe even just a tiny smidge on her chest, though it was hard to really tell one way or the other. Of course, her stomach was still enormous, and far beyond hiding. She could have swore she still felt a little movement from the half-orc in there, but it was likely just her imagination - all the 'defining bulges' that had been there the night before were gone, leaving her stomach just a near-perfect sphere jutting from her torso. It was HEAVY too, and carrying it around would be a pain...but one she effortlessly decided would be entirely and completely worth it.<br/><br/>Alas, she still had her duties to do, and getting them done before the light started to hurt her eyes was paramount. The rest of the companions had all found their way into the suite in one form or another - Anya had managed to crawl up on Cyria's bulbous backside sometime during the night, Anastasia somehow ended up atop her with both of her legs spread across Johan's face, and even Crysanthemum had managed to somehow climb into the tangled mass of limbs. Sasara...hrm. What HAD happened to her? Judging by the lack of movement coming from Cyria's overfull abdomen, she was likely digested or something of the sort. A pity, but given her goddess and her love of such things, it was bound to happen eventually. She'd put it in her report, but most likely, noone would be surprised.<br/><br/>The ensuing struggle to get her clothes on left her winded, and she had to partially alter her top to even fit somewhat correctly, but long before the sun had even risen, Naji was ready to go. Now, there just came the question of who to take with her. One of the rules was to avoid traveling alone, even in town, just in case something should happen, as was the case in the life of a mercenary. Yet, waking up Johan or Cyria did not sit well with her, nor Anastasia, Anya, or Crysanthemum. Hrm...who else.<br/><br/>The cat.<br/><br/>Of course.<br/><br/>She might not entirely trust her, but after her life was spared and she was given a room, it would be nigh insanity to turn her back on them now. Tracking her down was simple enough, merely checking the doors that were unlocked. The cat was sound asleep, well into digesting the duo she'd eaten the day before, and looked...well, a little haggard, likely after a long night of drinking. In the bed opposite was...what was her name...? Lea? Right. Well, she didn't know that one's capabilities yet, and having some muscle along would be required just in case things got salty.<br/><br/>"Yumina. Yumina!" Naji gave the prostrate feline a poke, followed by a rough shake, earning a garbled "Blrgh? M'sleepin', gots me snoozings..." Frowning slightly, she resorted to the cat's tail, giving it a hard yank that instantly had Yumina sitting up in bed, hackles raised "YOOOOW! What'n'the bloody hells, darkie?! I'm sleepin' here! Ergh...I drank too much." Naji noted with a small roll of her eyes that Yumina's gaze instantly settled on the still-tied wild elf she'd thrown down on the floor at her side. Of course she'd be thinking about eating her too, the greedy cat. That, though, would have to wait "Well, time to stop sleeping. You're coming into town with me while I sell our goods...and you'll get a little coinage for your trouble."<br/><br/>"Yeah yeah..." Yumina responded plainly, blearily rubbing at her eyes "Gimmie ten or so to get my armor on an' take care of the call of nature, an' I'll come with you."<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"> Less than an hour later, just as the sun was starting to peek over the horizon...</span><br/><br/>The scent of stale ale filled her nose as Naji came back to the tavern. Easy run. Got some coinage selling off the items they didn't need, and Yumina had caused no problems. Her legs were a little bit tired from carrying around so much weight, but again...it was completely worth it. Eyeing the staff as they wiped down the tables to prepare for a new day, Naji pulled out a chair from a table that had already been wiped down, and heavily flopped over into it, motioning for Yumina to seat herself across from her "Look, you pulled your weight. Figuratively." Casting a brief glance to the feline's large stomach as she flopped down, Naji pulled her coinpurse out and casually counted out a few coins "Normally, we get paid by the job. You're not one of us, though..and you helped. Only right to give you a bit to get yourself going again. I'd almost say you're welcome to join us, but that's not really my call. Would have to talk to our leader for that, or have Johan put a word in for you. Course, you're welcome to travel with us until then." Coins counted, Naji stacked them one atop the other and pushed them across the table - Six gold, enough for just under a week of room and food if one did not aim too high.<br/><br/>"Nah." Scooping up the little offering of coins in one hand and putting them away without even counting them, Yumina idly unsheathed her sword and started to polish the blade, frowning at a little nick in the edge it had received the day prior "You guys are good an' all, but feels weird stickin' around when I got so soundly trounced. Who knows, maybe we'll meet up again in the future. I still need t'have some words with that cute lil' fairy of yours." Feeling around for her weapon kit, Yumina heaved a sight - of course, she'd been, technically, a prisoner, so she'd not taken it from the farmhouse. The nick would have to stay there for now "An' thanks for the coinage. Just let everyone know, no hard feelings, yeah? Fighting against you lot was exciting, and this.." She gave her fuzzy stomach a little slap, grinning toothily "...Made it all worthwhile. Been a long time since I got to enjoy this sort of thing. We'd been out of the loop for weeks. Course, can bet the others will report back about your interference, but...givin' you didn't kill them all off when you had to, can bet it'll be a pretty nice report. Who knows, maybe they'll return the favor sometime."<br/><br/>"Oh!" Yumina continued, easing her enormous blade back into it's scabbard "...I don't guess you...uh...want that elf, do ya? We caught them poking around, and she was after somethin'...and I mean, a little grub for the road..."<br/><br/>"No shame." Naji murmured quietly, shaking her head and once more eyeing the cat's stomach, deceptively smaller than it had been the night before "Yeah. Sure. Take her. We don't need her, and I'm not wasting coin on a prisoner that has nothing to offer us. I think everyone is full enough, and we paid for breakfast anyway, so she'd only slow us down. Could sell her..." Naji's eyes seemed to light up at the thought, though her expression instantly turned back sour "...But, unlike others of my kind, I'm not big on the whole slavery thing. All yours."<br/><br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"> Even later...</span><br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Glp...gggllpp...</span><br/><br/>"Mmphhhh!!!"<br/><br/>Good gods, this elf had a chest on her. For a second, Yumina was thoroughly convinced she going to choke on the damn elf's breasts, but with a couple of more determined swallows, and a hard push atop the elf's head, she managed to get them down. A scant second before her jaws closed over the elf's head, she jerked away the gag that had been in place, though the elf's sudden string of words - most likely curses - was immediately muffled by the decisive clack of Yumina's jaws. A final swallow, and the elf was gone, the sound of sloshing and muffled words ringing through the fur of her tummy. Yeah...that elf was not going to have a good time in there, dunked in the half-digested remains of the two former bandits from the day before...and gods, was she full. Good enough for a couple more days, at least, which was going to massively save on the coinage she had. If it drew looks, who cared - she'd done worse in public, and sporting around a full stomach just made her feel powerful. If a bit heavy.<br/><br/>With a little groan, Yumina got back to her feet, re-situated her armor, checked her blade over one last time, and quietly stalked out of the room, easing the door shut behind her.<br/><br/>Upon returning to the tavern proper, she was surprised to find Naji conversing with a short, rusty-haired foxgirl with a decidedly enormous stomach which was obviously causing her some problems. Perhaps even moreso because, every time whoever was in there jerked, her cheeks flushed and she stumbled in her words. Their conversation stopped upon her approach, and Naji gave her an appraising look "Out, then? As I mentioned, was a pleasure, however brief."<br/><br/>"Yeah." Yumina responded simply, eyeing the fox for a moment before turning her full attention to Naji "Give my regards an' all. I'm not great with the whole 'Goodbye' thing, so...see ya!" Without another word, Yumina strolled out the front door into the cool, salty air of the harborside morning.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"> Vore Point Gained </span><br/>(I like the idea of gaining vore points for both eating someone, and escaping if you are eaten! Both 'Predator' and 'Prey' vore points are the same, though they are gained for different reasons! Also, even if an NPC ally eats someone, the party will still gain points from it, so if you desire to feed your companions, don't worry! You'll not miss out on points from it. Being eaten by allies, and escaping from it, will only award points if it is considered 'dangerous', and the same goes for 'willing' vore. There has to be some danger involved, or you're not learning anything! The predator points can be gained from eating ANYONE, but do take care - if you get a reputation for eating townsfolk, you might have some unwanted attention on your hands!)<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"> Cyria - Ate lizard, 2 points. Ate Sasara, 2 points. 3 points gained from Yumina. 1 point gained from Naji.

You'll get some for things that happen in the story, you MIGHT get some when you rest for a day (It won't happen during enormous time skips of a few days or a week or so, and it might not happen every night. It's a 50/50 chance, and it's tied to the strange 'dreams' you'll be getting. As your learn more about what's happening to you, and get able to speak more freely with whoever you're bonded with, you'll have opportunities to build your bond there, as well! These are meant to be 'dire circumstance' moments where you need that extra boost to survive a particularly nasty fight! Be careful, though - not all effects are good ones (and it's based on what you roll, and how much 'bond' you use with that roll, with the base being 5), and you never know when you might find an NPC that has a bond for some reason or another. I'm rebalancing the lists now, but I'll post them once more in a document or PDF format before the next battle begins, whenever that might be!)<br/><br/>Johan - +1 bond, Total of 6<br/>Cyria - +1 bond, Total of 1<br/>Alura - +1 bond, Total of 6<br/>Lea - Unbound currently<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"> The Suite - Cyria and Johan </span><br/><br/>You both awaken as the early morning sun is just starting to filter in through the windows. The fun of the previous night left you a little sore, but overall, immensely satisfied. It was rare you got to enjoy yourselves in such a nice room, and after two battles in the same day, it was a highly welcome reprieve. Anya, Crysanthemum, and Anastasia are all three still asleep in the little 'pile' you made, and Johan will have to do some wiggling to get out from underneath Anastasia's legs if he wishes to avoid waking her. Cyria has a harder time of it, as both Anya and Anastasia seem to have crawled atop her abdomen and fallen asleep there, the warmth of their bodies comforting in the cool early-morning hours.<br/><br/>It seems like both Sasara and the lizard woman had given up sometime in the night, leaving Cyria pleasantly full, though likely by noon or a bit after, her stomach will be empty once again, likely allowing her another full day before she actually starts getting hungry again, even if the travel proves to be stressful. Plus, it  just feels GOOD, like some sort of new power is inside of her, strengthening her...<br/><br/>Regardless, the pair can already smell the soothing scent of breakfast rolls being baked in the tavern kitchen, and a slightly more spicy smell, most likely sausage or something else of the sort.<br/><br/>(Cyria and Johan both get a +1 morale bonus from a 'fun night' to their next fight. This can affect melee attack rolls, or spell attack rolls. It will last a single encounter, regardless of how far away that encounter is. Be sure to make note of it! You've also healed any damage sustained normally, in accordance to the Pathfinder rules for a 'restful night')<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">The 2nd suite - Alura </span><br/><br/>You awaken in Tina's arms, the human girl snuggled up tightly against your side. It was an absolutely wild night, and hardly has your eyes fluttered open when the cute maid gives you a little peck on the cheek, her lips warm and soft in the cool morning air. She actually managed it - it was an immensely tight fit, and for a long time, despite her best attempts, it looked like she might very well not be able to cough you back up. Thankfully, with your own aid, and a bit of squirming, she managed to get you back up and you bathed together. The remainder of the night was spent in pleasure, the shy girl slowly but surely growing more bold, and returning the same pleasures you'd bestowed upon her. She was, perhaps, still a little shy, but she seemed to have absolutely no qualms about snuggling up with you in bed, her naked body so soft and warm against your own.<br/><br/>"Good morning, sleepyhead.." She whispered, her eyes glittering with delight "I hope you slept well. I know I did. I have to get ready for my shift...but I really don't want to. I'd love to stay here, snuggled up with you, for another hour or two..." Again, she nuzzled Alura's cheek, gently planting another soft kiss against her chin "But I'll get in trouble if I do. That was...wonderful. Amazing. I...really liked it. All of it."<br/><br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic"> Room 104 - Lea </span><br/><br/>After successfully escaping from the distraught catgirl's tummy, despite your best attempts to calm her, she disappeared into the halls. On one hand, she was scared of how much trouble she might get into, despite your assurances that you'd not tell on her. On the other, she seemed less than pleased that she was not as 'great' of a predator as she'd thought. Shortly thereafter, an immensely drunk Yumina staggered in, unceremoniously dropped an elf on the floor, and every bit as unceremoniously collapsed into bed. The remainder of the night was spent in sweet comfort, save for the occasional 'Mrrf' from the sleeping catgirl in the bed directly opposite, or the odd, muffled curse from the elf on the floor as she fruitlessly tried to escape the bindings on her wrist, or spit out the gag that had been tied into her mouth.<br/><br/>Early the next morning, the smells of breakfast promise a little food to get your morning started, and no doubt the others will be waiting to hear what news you brought.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>((Thanks again for everyone's patience, and I'm glad to get this back under way! ^_^ Feel free to post at your leisure! I'm going to try to get back to 2 posts a week, though there will be two weeks in January that I'll be away from home, which will make it a bit tougher to post on time. I'll bring my laptop with me, though, and hopefully get stuff written up while I'm away!<img alt=":D" src="./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif" title="Very Happy"/>Check out the vore point stuff in the spoiler below!))<br/><br/><br/><div style="padding: 3px; background-color: #FFFFFF; border: 1px solid #d8d8d8; font-size: 1em;"><div style="text-transform: uppercase; border-bottom: 1px solid #CCCCCC; margin-bottom: 3px; font-size: 0.8em; font-weight: bold; display: block;"><span onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') {  this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = ''; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;hide&lt;/a&gt;'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerHTML = '&lt;b&gt;Spoiler: &lt;/b&gt;&lt;a href=\'#\' onClick=\'return false;\'&gt;show&lt;/a&gt;'; }"><b>Spoiler: </b><a href="#" onclick="return false;">show</a></span></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">Vore Points<br/><br/>Vore points are broken up into two different categories as noted below --<br/><br/>Predator Points<br/>Escape Points<br/><br/>Both function similarly, in that they can be utilized to gain abilties, stat increases, and so forth by spending them. Points are gained as noted below --<br/><br/>Predator points - Predator points are given when a character successfully eats another living creature (normal animals will not count for the most part, but magical ones will), and digests them.  Upon complete digestion, the character who performed the predatory act will gain 2 vore points. All others in a situation will gain 1 vore point, even if they did not eat the person in question.<br/>For example, during a fight involving the party, one party member eats 1 enemy. That enemy is digested. All people who participated in that fight will recieve 1 vore point, while the party member who actually ate them will recieve 2.<br/>If the fight is a strictly one-on-one affair, only the person doing the eating will get vore points.<br/>Vore points are also gained for 'social situations', including eating a commoner or any other number of things. If someone gets eaten, vore points will be awarded regardless of the 'strength' of that character.<br/>Some characters are worth more than the initial 2 if eaten, with a highest potential possible of 3. These will be only the toughest of characters, or those who have significant story or plot significance. Others involved in the fight will recieve 2 vore points when these 'special' characters are eaten.<br/>In situations where 'companions' eat someone, the full reward goes to the entire group. This is to promote those who wish to form bonds with companions, or simply enjoy the 'feeding' scenario. Also, as companions will eat others in combat if they are of the ability and mind to, it prevents vore points from being taken away from the group in any form or fashion.<br/><br/><br/>Escape Points - These points represent those who get eaten during combat or social situations, and manage to free themselves, or a party member frees them. These are slightly harder to get, as conditions must be met as follows --<br/><br/>Digestion damage taken must total 1/3 of total HP (Pending, this might changed very soon)<br/>Companions during 'social situations' will not count towards escape points, unless there is risk involved. (At my discretion, here.)<br/>'Willing prey' escape points will be limited per each level. This means you CAN get some from being willing prey, but it will cap out at whatever number your current level is.<br/>There must be some risk. Getting eaten by a peasant with no ability to keep anyone down will not allow Escape Points.<br/><br/>In situations where someone is aided out of a stomach or similar by a party member, the party member who helped will gain 1 escape point, while the character who got eaten will gain 2.<br/><br/>Escape points and Predator Points are one in the same, as both go to the 'total' to purchase special abilties and skills. However, the MUST be kept track of independantly!<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>Spending Vore Points - Vore Points can be spent on a number of different abilities, which will be detailed below--<br/><br/>Example -<br/>Increased strength 1 (+1 str score) - 25 points<br/>Increased Strength 2 (+2 str score, Increased 1 required) - 50 points<br/>Increased strength 3 (+3 with req requirement) - 75 points<br/>Increased strength 4 (+4 with req requirements) - 100 points<br/><br/>So, if you spend 50 points, you'll get a +2 to strength. 25 points for the +1 at the first rank, and another 25 points for the +1 at the second rank, for a total of +2.<br/><br/>The costs are the same for all stats, and just serve a way to further strength and diversify your character for things that are going to be happening anyway! With magic items a little less common (especially stat-boosting ones), this is just a good way to reward those who engage in the stuffs the game has to offer! I mean...it's a game on a fetish site! Can bet there's gonna be noms and nommings happening, so this stuff will just add up as time progresses!<br/><br/>Of course, you're not required to eat or be eaten by everyone you see! Do what your character would do, as there are OTHER ways to get these points! Special food to buy, etc. I'll also be rewarding them for awesome roleplay from this point forwards, or from heroic acts that are successful!<br/><br/>I'm going to be working on other things to buy. Natural armor, minor speed increases, that sort of stuff! Things that would work with stuff that is meant to be increases to your body, rather than magical effects! I'm still working on that, though, so until I get some basic feedback from you all and let me know your opinions, and offer up advice, this will be for stats only now!</div></div></div>
