Harlot Spotlight - Lady Flumpth

Continuing with the low-tier harlots of the fifth faction, we'll look at one with a slightly tenuous connection to it – Lady Flumpth.

My memory is a little hazy on this one, so I'm not sure if the harlot idea or mechanics came first.

I think the central idea was of a harlot that dropped down from the ceiling and trapped the player under her dress. Her dress is part of her body and she'd pleasurably drain the player while under her.

I think someone had been asking for a girl with a tentacle dress similar to a hentai doujin monster girl character. I'd also seen the character and it had inspired a story idea of a similar monster girl tugging a 'volunteer' under her dress and subjecting him to tentacle pleasure hell as part of a sexy stage show.

(I've been thinking of expanding the number of harlots that have their scenarios downstairs in the bar on stage, so the story idea might become separate harlot scenario idea.)

At some point the 'capture dress harlot' became more fungal and her tentacles switched to filaments that drained vitality on touch, but that touch was also extremely pleasurable.

As Lady Flumpth became more fungal, I thought it made sense to push the more disquieting aspects of her appearance and creepiness.

The mechanics became a mix of various stat checks. The player can dodge her as she falls down (with a bonus if he has high enough INT to spot her first or was warned by The Elegant Woman) or muscle out through the filament dress if they have enough STR.

While the individual stat checks are all slightly tougher than would be expected for a low-tier harlot, the player only really has to pass one to escape, which should make her a relatively easy low-tier harlot.

The one thing I added was the clothing clause. The player needed to be given the choice of whether to take his clothes off at the start, and having harlots be allowed to finish off the player if they destroy their clothes for some reason removes the need to handle situations where the player has no clothes to put back on afterwards.

Because she mostly checks physical stats, it made sense to put her in the fifth faction. She is a fairly loose fit for that faction and would probably be an independent if I didn't already have too many of them in relation to the faction harlots. One mistake I think I made was to make each faction require too many harlots. I think most faction ideas can support around 5-7 characters, and after then it starts to become a stretch.

Lady Flumpth is an unusual scenario in that there is no safe way to let her perform any sex act on the player. While she offers it if the player escapes her trap, it's just another trap that will lead to his death. I felt it fit her particular character, but it's not something I want to do too often with scenarios. HoHH differs from other femdom monster girl games in that the player can get laid and walk away afterwards, they just have to manage a whole heap of uncertainty about whether they'll get to walk away afterwards.

This also swings into the lore.

That is pretty sparse for Lady Flumpth. As mentioned above, she's a fairly tenuous fit for this faction.

She's not very popular with The Madam as she doesn't offer any 'safe' sex services, which violates the 'rules' of The Madam's 'game'. The Madam tolerates this as Lady Flumpth is not a particularly powerful lust daemon, so it's not hard for a man to find a way to escape her track.

Lady Flumpth does tries to be proper and ladylike, but the others see her as a mouldy fungus, and don't respect her all that much.

If I ever hive it off into its own faction, I can see Lady Flumpth joining Vête Piège in a faction of posh snooty lust daemons that dress in fine aristocratic dresses and are incredible bitches to each other.

Marwmellow's piece is suitably fungus-y. Lady Flumpth also has her lovely big heaving bosoms to distract from the more noisome aspects of her appearance.

I hope you like her. Let me know what you think down below.
