Phew! So many questions! I like questions like these though because it helps me design more details into the world.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6430008#msg6430008">Quote from: vin26m on 13-06-2012, 14:50:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Hotels - My character is staying at a hotel for now.  Are you okay with the hotel having slavegirls that are objectified - serving as tables, pedestals, welcome mats, urinals, even a few of them laying down side by side to serve as a mattress for the bed, or a whole bunch of slaves arranged as a combination mattress/bed/headboard?  Also, would people staying at the hotel be able to freely use the help, like the maids?</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Hotels are public places. See the Monte Carlo Casino and Maya Bar for how slaves are treated here. Basically a place like this is a business and it needs to make money and run in a reasonably efficient manner so having the maids and waitresses and bar staff fucked at random and so on probably isn't going to work simply because you can't run a business when all your serving staff in a bar are busy bouncing on 4 customers laps and 10 more customers are getting annoyed waiting for their drinks.<br/><br/>In all cases I think we need to decide what kind of establishment it is and that depends on the city and area in that city. Certain hotels in certain districts in a place like, say, Amsterdam for example, are going to have staff going around nude most probably and the customer pays extra for this tittilation. In classier cities like Monaco such types of hotel would almost never exist simply because its a high-class elite place and the hotels want to attract a certain class of person. So in almost all the hotels in Monaco the staff would be dressed reasonably stylishly though maybe a little provocatively and would be off-limits to guests. Likewise guests and their slaves would be banned from indulging in sex in the public areas of the hotel.<br/><br/>Degrading girl-furniture might be found in the Amsterdam hotels I used as an example but might not in Monaco. There may be themed perversion hotels around the place where certain kinks are catered for such as furniture, animal-girl bar staff and fucking in the hotel gardens but my thinking is that would be restricted to blatant kink-hotels which would be places you'd stay a few days to indulge that particular kink and not somewhere you'd stay while on a business trip.<br/><br/>Simply so that guests could be charged the correct fees for what they get up to I would think it practical to have the furniture girls as off-limits and the girls a guest could use would be effectively prostitutes and available for that purpose, although an all-inclusive "all you can eat" style deal might work!<br/><br/>A guest would be either free to bring whores into their rooms and do as they wish, or not, depending on the hotel's rules, in the same way that some hotels in our world do not allow guests to bring their own food into their rooms. Perhaps the collar freedom of movement zone could even exclude the interior of certain premises so that you can't take a whore inside a hotel.<br/><br/>A kink-hotel owner would have been quite a good character to have in the game. There might be such a hotel in the principality.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6430008#msg6430008">Quote from: vin26m on 13-06-2012, 14:50:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Dungeons - Would Monaco have a place where an owner could rent a dungeon that has a variety of apparatuses, devices, restraints and tools?  Would Kaelyn's brothel or Nereza's training facility be such places?  Would we have to make a new place?</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Kaelyn's place probably would have but a customer would be expected to pay for one of her girls to use her facilities I should think, though Reia is the authority on that. Nereza definitely has a punishment facility of some kind in her stables but this is for her staff to punish her girls and not for public hire. You need to remember that this is a business and not a kinky 24/7 lifestyle club like we have in our world. In Nereza's facility the purpose is to punish and train, to inflict pain and fear, not orgasms. Its not for the girls to enjoy themselves.<br/><br/>I see no problem with Okello finding an NPC owner of a dungeon facility. I think such places would hire out private rooms, fully equipped for clients to use just like such places exist in our world. Some hotels might have such rooms. In fact I think it more likely that certain hotels would have such facilities since after a good torture session an owner might just want to collapse into a bath or bed and not have the hassle of going home, so its more likely that 'dungeon hotels' exist or just normal hotels that have a dungeon facility (like our world's hotels have a pool, sauna and gym) for guests to use.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6430008#msg6430008">Quote from: vin26m on 13-06-2012, 14:50:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Zoo - Would Monaco have a zoo with a variety of slavegirls dressed like animals on display?  Would Nereza have something resembling such a place, perhaps even having a petting zoo for her puppygirls and providing cart rides with her ponygirls?</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>I'd say there are definitely 'zoos' in this world but they are most likely a style of whorehouse that cater to animal kinks of the customers. A client might wander the enclosures, chose a cat or a lioness and then take her away to a private room for fun. Kaelyn could well have certain girls/rooms that cater to an animal kink or, if she knows Nereza, the two women might have come to a friendly agreement that Nereza deals with the animal kink side of business while Kaelyn deals in other kinks.<br/><br/>I am still working through how Nereza's business works but it offers a variety of fun diversions as well as a taxi service. When I set the "Mes Poulains Petits" thread up I'll write that all out.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6430008#msg6430008">Quote from: vin26m on 13-06-2012, 14:50:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I also have questions about ownership issues. Since my character is the first one to buy a slave from an accredited store (as opposed to already owning one or having ownership transferred from father to son), this is new ground within the game.<br/><br/>Servonyms - The original comic uses derogatory names for slaves, like Bouncybutt Drippycunt (owners are required to change the name or be given a random derogatory one). However, none of the current slaves in your game, even the owned ones, have such names (or at least I didn't notice any in particular - the names owners use seem to be whatever they happened to think of at the moment as opposed to something official).  In your version of this world, will these kinds of official names be in use, and would they be the norm?  I'm not sure if I would use one (I might just let her keep her original name), but I'm curious about the prevalence of this in your version.</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>I'm allowing players to name their slaves as they wish. Some will use derogatory ones, some will use cute ones, some may keep the person's original name. Nereza names her girls after animal-style names, hence the girl referred to in her opening post is called Poppy. I plan to call Chrystal's 36DD slave pony 'Titty' or just 'Tits' because its degrading and fun! The kinds of names given in the Erenisch comics I found to be basically silly and even childish, but an owner can name their slave anything they like.<br/><br/>If you look in the Law spoiler section of the first post you'll see that slaves must refer to their owners and any male or free woman in a respectful way at all times and the BAF slaves are all trained to refer to themselves in the 3rd person by saying "This cunt" and address any owner as "Master" which is a hold-over from the comics. An owner though can re-train their property to refer to them ('Master', 'Sir', 'Boss',) in any way they wish and themselves in any manner the player prefers. I like the idea of an international hotel or restaurant chain training its slaves to all speak in a certain way - such as McDonald's girls all saying "This slut wishes you a nice day!" as you leave, or "Room service. May this cunt please enter to clean your room?"<br/><br/>I'd like to see more derogatory names though - just not the bloody silly ones the comics have. I mean, seriously, how can you RP a cruel, sadistic Master when your slave answers to StiffyNips SluttyCunt? Gah.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6430008#msg6430008">Quote from: vin26m on 13-06-2012, 14:50:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">The BAF - Ryuuji said the range for Paulette's collar is set to Monaco and the surrounding beaches, and the access is semi-restricted so the slaves can be appraised by customers (non-owners). If Okanjo does not want to change the collar settings, does he still have to go to the BAF to register her? Or is this already taken care of since Okanjo is buying Paulette from an accredited trading house? Where I'm from, I believe cars bought from dealerships still require the owner to go to the Department of Motor Vehicles to register their cars initially, but I think in other places, the dealership takes care of all that so the owner does not have to. Basically, do I have to swing by the BAF?</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>Okello does not have to visit the BAF. The Emperium store will electronically update the BAF computer with the sales details, and pay the 10% sales tax. Once slaves are registered with them, and trained and sold off by the BAF to trading houses, the BAF don't need to be told about future sales, but as with the British Driver and Vehicle Licencing Agency (DVLA) when a car is sold the seller tears out a page in the car logbook, fills in the details of who he sold it to and sends this to the DVLA. The DVLA then send an updated logbook/owner document to the new car owner. I'm seeing the BAF work in a similar way and Okello will get an owners certificate in the post in due course, or sent by e-mail as a pdf depending on whether he gave Ryuuji an e-mail address or not. You can't sell a slave on without updating this owners record.<br/><br/>The 'access' codes programmed into the barcode strip on the collar and set by the owner with a small remote handset. An owner could send his slave down the street to buy the paper from the corner store and set her collar to 'gives oral' which would allow any free person passing her and scanning her collar with their handset to know that the owner of that slave is happy for her to be ordered down on her knees in the street to suck cock or eat pussy. The settings range from 'no contact' which means hands off completely to 'full access'. The nice thing for cruel owners is they can set the slave's access code but not tell them what it is... ;)<br/><br/>I have decided that there is a fully functioning honour code among owners and that everyone obeys the access codes on all slaves collars because if people didn't, we'd have complete anarchy with slaves being unable to be sent out alone as they'd just be stolen, abused, tortured and killed. The system has to be self-policing for it to work.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6430008#msg6430008">Quote from: vin26m on 13-06-2012, 14:50:19</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">Slavecops - The original comic has slaves working for the BAF dressed in slutty cop outfits that help control other slaves. Are they present in your game and if so how would they be used? Checking status of women? Restraining loose slaves? Reporting fully restricted slaves that are not being illegally violated by non-owners? Assisting owners with punishments of slaves (using a stun baton or handcuffs)?</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>I hadn't considered slavecops at all and I haven't read those comics in which they appear. I think the idea is a bit silly really and I don't think I'll implement them since how can they have any authority when they are slaves and slaves have no rights? It doesn't make sense (like a lot of what's in the comics in fact!)
