Mind Games: Trepidation

"For now, the Sleepers are the lucky ones; they don't know the rest of the world is joining them while the rest of us watch, useless."

"The Orchard's Centennial Celebration is incredibly important; it marks the beginning to our city, and it's a happy thing in the midst of all the shit going on."

Welcome to Mind Games: Trepidation, the first game in the interactive-fiction series Mind Games. The series will be a supernatural romance with horror, fantasy, and sci-fi elements, set in an alternative version of our world. This will be a six part series, and there are six romantic options.

As for the blurb:

Armington is a small city, with a population and size that still borders on being called a town. The peace is generally kept by one Sheriff Quinn and his trusty private investigator... otherwise known as you. You, an Alpha (a human with incredibly non-human abilities), someone who probably shouldn't be anywhere near law enforcement given your kind is outlawed with a kill-on-sight allowance by the government... but that's not your worst worries, not in the slightest.

Starting in your hometown of Armington, a slow but steadily growing illness is spreading among the Supernaturals in your community and somehow, globally, to Supers who have never even set foot in Armington. An illness that renders those infected into a comatose state, as well as some kind of black ooze to come from their orifices. And, as it continues to steadily spread, it becomes less and less clear how you are supposed to "peacekeep" or even fix what's going on... so the Advocacy of Peace steps in to assist.

The Advocacy of Peace, while an independent group that has existed before several countries even came into existence, is employed by several governments globally to publicly ‘control’ the Alpha issue... and globally, and far more discreetly, governs the entire Supernatural population, keeping their existence secret from humanity.

On top of all of this, from trying to run after an unknown cause to an unknown illness, balancing your normal work life with your private investigative one, and even playing nice with the Advocates sent in to help, there's still one more thing to contend with: the Centennial Celebration of the founding of the apple orchard that eventually grew from a road-side bar by the same name to the city in which it resides. Which, given the city was originally founded by Supernaturals, many will be flocking to Armington to celebrate. With so many things to balance, how will you handle the pressure that seems to have no end in sight?

The Romantic Options and some features to expect will be under the cut:

Some features to expect:

- Multiple versions of NSFW scenes that reflect the above items.

- Six romance options, each with their own distinct problems, views, and secrets.

- Choices that will matter far past where you make them, AND your decisions will not be forgotten by those around you. That also means not everyone will agree with your decisions, no matter how close the two of you are.

- Most ROs can be romanced by anyone, only one RO has set genders they'll be romantically involved with.

- A lot of customizations for your character, each of which will be listed on the stats page

- TBA

The Romance Options:

Freja Ellingboe: The Commanding Agent of her team, Freja can be brutally blunt and has little patience for those unable to focus on the task at hand during working hours. It doesn't help that even outside of work, she's rather reserved... mostly because she suffers from massive amounts of social anxiety. Despite this, she has nothing but warmth in her heart for her team and even their wrangler, even if she has a hard time showing it.

Gender: Cis woman

Sexuality: Demisexual

Race: Viila

Adontis: The second-in-command to Freja, Adontis is almost opposite to her in personality. He's rather amiable and smooth, and as such, handles the part of their job that requires a... diplomatic touch. However, it can be challenging to get to know him on a personal level, as he's well-versed in deflection tactics and doesn't deal well with the whole "getting to know you on a personal level" bits. He's also one of the oldest beings currently still in existence.

Gender: Cis man

Sexuality: Currently experiencing bisexuality

Race: Vampire (original virus)

Fawn: Fawn is... hard to describe. Cagey, edging on hostile, and reluctant to deal with people in every way possible. She's been betrayed far too many times, and after the third time she had to deal with the loss of everyone close to her, she's incredibly reluctant to trust anyone. She doesn't even go by her true name: Fawn was one she chose herself, to represent her forced new life after being thrown from her tribe for crimes she did unwillingly, and being on unsteady legs that had to strengthen quickly.

Gender: Woman? (She just uses the pronouns she started with, but has no ties to any gender, really.)

Sexuality: Bisexual, but only for ladies and androgynous or feminine non-binary people

Race: Skinwalker

Blake Gautier: Blake is a Cajun man straight from the bayous of Louisiana. Formerly a biker before his life went to shit and known for being quite the flirt, he's also rather useful in social settings, depending. However, he also comes with a temper that often leans on short, and it can be quite easy to push his buttons and incite violence. Underneath it all, he's a man that suffered a great heartache, and while he wants to love again, the idea of facing the same loss can render him fearful of such feelings.

Gender: Cis man

Sexuality: Chaotic bisexual, also known as the distaster bisexual, tends to attract moronsexual persons

Race: Werewolf (not to be confused with Lycanthropes)

Iris/Irien Faede: Iri is... to put it simply, Iri's what you'd get if you put a bunch of lit firecrackers and bottle rockets in a barrel full of gasoline. Chaotic and prone to doing dangerous things, as well as a pro at making alchemical bombs and pulling off pranks, Iri is a godsdamned handful. It's unknown how Freja and Adontis handle them, but the two do a mostly good job at it. Iri also has many secrets, some of which would hurt those around them if they were to be found out...

Gender: Questioning, Iris uses she/her and Irien uses he/him

Sexuality: Pansexual

Race: Magus?

Loche: Loche is incredibly slow to trust and has very little understanding of human world social etiquette, given things are very different in their homelands of the Fae Realms. They are struggling to adapt to this new world, even after living in it for three years, and because of that, they are rarely seen away from someone from the team, especially Fawn. However, their usual behavior seems to be utterly forgotten in the MC's presence, much to the confusion of the rest of the team... and Loche themself.

Gender: Cis Man/Cis Woman (they share the same name)

Sexuality: Biromantic (They do feel sexual attraction to any MC, but up till MC it has mostly been to the opposite gender. It's been a bit of a confusing time for them, given it's not just a passing attraction.)

Race: Faeral, Leopard

(feel free to ask about anything else!)
