Harlot Spotlight - Asphya

This is continuing the spotlight series where I get to premiere new harlot art for higher tier subscribers.

Normally I break these harlot spotlights down into a piece on the harlot's background lore in-universe followed by a piece on their game mechanics and how they came together.

That's a bit difficult for Asphya as she's a mystery.  Sadly, she's the bad type of mystery.

The good type of mystery is where the creator has it all figured out in the background and is carefully teasing out the details so the audience can piece it together.  The bad type of mystery is where the creator themselves hasn't got a clue.  Asphya is sadly of the latter.

She first showed up in the abandoned (for now) Okasare Kenny series as one of the monster girls he has to fight.  I liked her design, so decided to reuse her for HoHH.  Unfortunately, as she doesn't speak at all, I ran into similar problems with her that I had when writing her for Okasare Kenny.  A good succubus/monster girl hentai Bad End really needs the succubus/monster girl to be teasing and taunting the whole way.  That's a little harder when they don't speak!

Mechanically, she seemed a good fit for the "smother" faction.  Her primary way of subduing someone is to get the pipe of her mask over their mouth and nose, then suck the air out of their lungs.

In appearance she fits as well, being modelled on 'heavy rubber' fetish models, and that fits with the black latex themes of the 'smotherbuses'.

It was when I developed the lore further, that they are all part of a quasi-religious order devoted to erotic asphyxiation, where Asphya ended up being left as a strange offshoot.

Her scenario is similar to as it was in Okasare Kenny.  She is the guardian of The Great Latex Womb.  Her room is a manifestation of it.  The Womb absorbs into its walls anyone that loses themselves to sexual pleasure.  The HoHH scenario modifies that by insisting the player must stay on their feet while fucking Asphya (to reduce contact area with the sides of the Womb).  It's a nice way to turn it into a challenge with rules the player can survive.

How that fits with The Sanctum of Strangulated Sighs... I'm still working on the details there.  Both seem to be fairly evocatively named locations.  I certainly wouldn't mind exploring them more, maybe in H-space stories, maybe Phil might end up there.  That might help me create a better link between the two.  For now, though, it's one of those awkward not-filled-in mysteries.

As for Asphya, I like her design.  It's taking a classic fetish look, but making it more alien and weird.  Asphya's mask is organic and part of her, and I wanted how she behaved to evoke a more feral sensuality.  It is damn hard to write scenes for character that don't speak though!

I was asked to include sketches, so I've added them as well.  The first sketch had the pipe coming off the side, but as this is not a mask and Asphya's actual face, it needed to be changed to coming from the front.  Marwmellow also didn't like the original pose, so redid it.  She was the last one to be completed of the first batch of smotherbuses and came out pretty well, I think.

And as with all the Harlot Spotlights, I've attached the original script.
