[Open][Unpaid][NSFW] Looking for Team for NSFW Otome Visual Novel

#1 Post by lunamakaio »

Synopsis
The last thing she remembers is the strange men attacking her, then being surrounded by a swirling red mist.
Now she wakes up in an unfamiliar apartment, with a masked figure sitting in the corner of the room. He assures her he only took her for her own safety, yet how does she know if she can really trust him?

Will he save her from her dangerous past, or be the catalyst for an even scarier future?

About Me
Hi! I’m Olivia (or lunamakaio) — a writer and VN dev. I recently directed and wrote projects including Adopt a Boyfriend and Romance At The Rink, as well as working as a writer on a few projects such as: Snow Angel, Deliver Us From Evil and Dual Chroma: Far Shore.

About The Project
After several successful jam projects, I've decided I'd like to focus on something larger in scope, hence my conception of this project.
I really want to create something really sexy and kind of complex. Whilst I don't want this to be a "porn" game per se (though nothing wrong with that!), sex and sexuality is a big part of it, as well as exploring power exchange dynamics.
Ultimately, I want to tell a love story with a bit of a detour through sex and action, and a little bit of plot (which isn't something I'm super used to in my usual 'slice of life' adventures.)
So far I have first draft outline as well as some other concepts. My aim is to finish up the project by the middle of the year.

Content Warnings
Kidnapping (kind of?), Dubious Consent, Age Gaps, BDSM & Power Dynamics,
Violence/Threat of Violence, Character Death, Mentions of Suicide, Torture/Scientific Experimentation.
If you have any questions in these regards, please feel free to discuss these with me!
The relationship between the MC and LI is fully consensual in the sense of their attitudes, yet there are the existence of some power imbalances, which is why I have included dubious consent as a warning.
The warnings in italics involve the MC and LI relationship, whereas the bolded warnings are in regards to other elements of the story, or actions perpetuated by or against the MC and LI.
It is my plan to include a full list of content warnings on the itch page, as well as links and resources on BDSM education.

Characters
Hanna (Renameable) (Achelois)
Late 20s - 5'4

Image
Once a military trainee, MC was recruited to the Elysian Foundation before her military career could really begin.
The recruiter had one promise, she'd be able to help people.
Despite their best efforts, the experiments never seemed to take on Hanna, and she was never able to realize her potential. Yet, unbeknownst to her, her powers are just yet to be revealed.
She's rebuilt her life, and was intent on putting her past behind her until certain unsavory figures caught up with her.
Some of the MC's personality will be left to the player, but largely she is quietly confident, a natural follower with a decent sense of humour.
Despite her selfless nature and need to help, she's less adept at making the right decisions for her own well-being, and can sometimes be a little reckless.


Elijah Alvarez (Hades)
40 - Scorpio - ISTP - 6'1

Image
A former military veteran, Alvarez spent his life working his way to becoming a respected special forces' commander, before he was recruited by the Elysian Foundation.
After numerous experiments, he became Hades, a soul eating killing machine.
Now free from the clutches of the Foundation, he swears his revenge, and is intent on bringing those involved to justice — even if it's at his own hand.
Alvarez is traditional masculinity through and through — upholding the virtues of leadership, strength, as well as some of the drawbacks. A closed off character, he resists any kind of closeness with the MC, and keeps himself, and his past, a secret.
Underneath, he's passionate and strong, with a real sense of justice and morality. He's determined to help those who need it, and is secretly a huge softie.
