Hey everyone! I've been thinking about starting a group CYOA revolving around a returning Hogwarts student. What I'm envisioning is that at the end of each post, there would be a quick survey to decide what happens next. I figure a post about once a week, to give people time to respond and me to write. If this is something that sounds interesting, please see the initial survey link below. All answers are strictly private!
To be clear, I'm not really looking for a partner to write with for this. I'll write all of the posts, and at the end of each post there will be a survey and the majority answer will be used for the next post.
*All characters, especially those involved in sexual scenes, will be at least 16 years old, which is the age of consent in the UK, and should fit within the rules of the site.*
First, thank you all for your responses in the survey. There were a lot of interesting ideas and a few surprises. At this point I think I have enough to get us started. I've stopped the poll and am ready to post the results. First, though, I want to go over a couple things.
There were a few ties. In the event of a tie, I'm going to act as a tie-breaker and make the final call. We'll do that going forward as well, though hopefully it won't come up often.
For the "multiple choice" questions, I'm going to include the top 3 answers, or however many are appropriate.
Going back to ties, at one point the vote for gender was very close, so in order to not completely disappoint anyone who voted for the other gender, I'm going to have the character regularly play around with gender swapping. Hopefully that will scratch that itch.
So now, the part everyone has been waiting for, the results:
What perspective should the story be told from?
Third person past ("She walked down the hall silently, trying to not be heard.")
How involved to you want to be in the decision-making? Longer story posts with fewer decisions per scene. I want to experience the story and only make decisions when necessary. What gender should the character be? Female What size breasts should the character have? C How tall should the character be? Average What should the character's general build be? Athletic What should the character's skin tone be? Fair How long should the character's hair be? Mid-back What color should the character's hair be? Black What color should the character's eyes be? Blue How does the character maintain their pubic hair? Neatly trimmed Should the character have any piercings, tattoos, birthmarks, scars, or other unique characteristics? There were several answers given here, and I will try to incorporate at least a few of them. The character is sexually interested in: (listed in preference order) Female, Male, Trans/Non-Binary, Creatures (to include magically animated objects and magical creatures) What is the character's sexual role? (top 3)
Equal partner, Switch, Submissive
What is the character's sexual history? Some experience, but still a virgin In addition to other students, what other pairings would the character be open to? (listed in preference order) Teacher, Parent of another student, Elves, Fae, Mer-people, Ghost, Werewolf, Vampire, Ork, Family, Dragon What house should the character belong to? Slytherin What is the character's lineage? Full-blood What is the character's background? UK citizen who has attended Hogwarts since first eligible. From a working middle-class family. How would you describe the character's personality? (top 5) Intelligent, Sexually Adventurous, Curious, Loyal, Shy
So there we have it. We've created a character! Her name will be Tabitha Ashwood. I'm really looking forward to getting this off the ground. Feel free to message me with ideas or suggestions. I can't guarantee I'll be able to do them all, but I'll try to include what I can. Oh, and here's a picture of our character:
It was warm in London, had been all week, even for the very beginning of September. It wasn't unusual for some of summer to still linger in the south of England, but this year it had outstayed its welcome. The news had no solid explanation for the temperature, only that it should break "any day...
