DEMO TBA.

You’re next…

It was among a thousand other comments— you had only seen it briefly in passing— but you couldn’t help the chill that wracked your spine because of it. Even through the screen you could feel the malicious air exuding from those words. The omniscient air clogging your lungs as you try to fight through the emotions that rise because of the message.

You’re able to shake it off after a few moments— people on the internet are weird after all— and get back to doing your daily routine. Your attention shifting to other things; causing the message to be forgotten.

That is until a sharp rapping on your door awakens you at close to midnight; your bleary eyes barely taking in the flashing of a badge before you’re asking to come with them. Your ears barely being able to comprehend what it was they were hearing.

You were being targeted by a person that had already killed a dozen other people— all of them holding some presence online— and nothing would stop them from getting to their thirteenth; to you.

Will you be able to survive long enough to see the victims before you get justice? Or will you just be another number on a list that wasn’t able to be saved?

Demo (TBA)

It was a tale as old as time within the small town of Serenity Falls. To some the myths told of people that inhabited the seas— mermaids to most— that helped create Serenity Falls. To others, however, the myths speak of horrible beasts that crawled out from the very depths of hell; with a call that only the dead would be able to resist.

Many have heard the tales— and many have rolled their eyes at them— but when a stranger washes up on the shore of the small town with a much bigger history? Maybe those legends were filled with kernels of truth after all.

Unfortunately you wouldn’t be able to help; as you don’t remember how you even got to Serenity Falls in the first place. All you have are the flashes of memories when you dream, the faint pang in your heart every time you look out into the bay, and the faint echo of your name being whispered in the wind.

It seems that the small town of Serenity Falls has just as much to give you as you do to it.

DEMO TBA // RO APPEARANCES

Features

This story will be 18+ (later on) for swearing, possible alcohol use (for the MC), and sexual themes.

Play as a mermaid that has lost their way as you try to remember who you are and you’re confusing connection with the sea.

Customizable MC: name, appearance, gender, and sexuality. (More things will be added as the story progresses.)

Figure out where you truly belong; in the sea or on land.

Learn who you were as you discover who you’re becoming (and learn what happened to you).

Romance 1 of 5 possible options that will hopefully make your choice easier… or make it ten times harder.

August/Audrey Hale, 28 (M/F)

-The Golden Child-

The oldest child of Serenity Falls mayor; A has always made it their duty to make sure that everyone within the small coastal town was all right. A dazzling smile and a warm gaze causes many hearts to swoon but not many have been able to capture their heart. Will you be able to do so? After all they were the one to find you and you’ll definitely be seeing a lot more of them. As they want to make sure that you’re all right and acclimate well enough to everything that Serenity Falls has to offer.

“I haven’t felt this way since my first love broke my heart. I-I don’t know what I would if I lost you too. I just know that my world would become that much dimmer because of it.”

Sychar/Syrena Ashford, 29 (M/F)

-The Protector-

You don’t remember them but they certainly remember you. Silver eyes softening only for you as their attention solely stays wherever you seem to be. They say they’re your best friend, and something within your heart tells you it’s true, but you can’t shake the feeling that something’s being kept from you. You get the feeling that they’d do absolutely anything for you but you don’t remember why.

“I have stayed by your side for you entire life— through your ridiculous adventures— and I know that I’ll stay by your side for the rest of it. I’d do anything to protect you, your highness. Not just because you’re my best friend. You’ve always been so much more.”

Ross/Rose Laurier, 28 (M/F)

-The “Bad” Seed-

Whispered words is all you hear about them at first; that they were no good, that they ran with the wrong crowd. Upon meeting them? You couldn’t quite connect the soulful hazel eyes, standing on the other side of the diners counter, with the person those words have been connected to. Much more seems to hide underneath the steely facade that they put up. Maybe you’ll be the one to slip behind that wall and find the person hidden beneath.

“I still don’t know why you care so much. No one ever sticks around for long so I don’t expect you to either. I just hope you know that I’m glad you’ve stuck around. I’ve never truly had a friend like you. Now don’t tell anyone I’m getting this mushy on you or I might have to kick your ass, okay?”

Caspian/Cassidy Vega, 27 (M/F)

-The Scientist-

A person with as much passion for the sea, and the life living within it, as you’ve ever seen. For all the knowledge that spews from their mouth they seemingly grow bashful to every other form of conversation, but they’re endlessly fascinated by you. By the possibility that the old fables their parents told them at night could possibly be true. Maybe you’ll discover more about them as they help you discover more about yourself.

“The sea has always called to me. Rolling tides, whistling winds, pristine blues, have always been heaven on earth to me. I’ve never known exactly why I’ve always loved the sea but maybe it was to get me prepared for you? Maybe I love the sea so much because I was always supposed to love you.”

Lucian/Lucia Prince, 32 (M/F)

-The Enigma-

You aren’t the only new resident to Serenity Falls. You’ve only been able to catch glimpses of the elusive individual but their ice blue eyes, peering over darkened shades, seem to enrapture you; while also reminding you of a vague memory that has entered your dreams more than once. You don’t know why you feel like you already know this person but you’re definitely intrigued by them; their cool smile, collected demeanor, and flirty words included.

“Cat got your tongue, sweet thing? I hope you won’t be silent all night. It’ll get quite boring hearing me yammer on, don’t you think? Hmm.. no matter, I suppose there’s always other activities we could divulge in, don’t you agree?”

“So…

It’s a cult?”

“- it’s not a cult”

Devil of a Time is a low fantasy Lovecraftian interactive fiction. You play as a well respected official in your not-a-cult charged with protecting the younger members all while completing your final year of your university degree.

Let’s just hope that no secrets stray to further ears.

ROMANCE OPTIONS

RO Visuals (Picrew)

Alfie Redding [ 16 — M — Bisexual ] — as a bookworm with a kind smile and a terrifying glare, Alfie is the only person you 'know' before attending Green Valley, having been in the same secondary school. Not that the two of you were particularly close but perhaps his bright mind and striking wit is just what you need to solve this mystery.

[ English ] tall and willowy, extremely pale skin that burns easily, short bright ginger hair (2b) in a perpetual state of bed-head, olive green round eyes, aquiline nose with a high nose bridge and a straight base, lots of freckles, freckles everywhere in varying shapes and tones — they tend to come out more after he's been in the sun... as long as he's not burnt a bright red, thin lips but a wide mouth — a small pink scar on the left side of his top lip, deep dimples when he uses his mouth to form expressions. [ 6'0" ]

JJ Pendleton [ 17 — M — Pansexual ] — JJ is the one most people see either running away from a crime prank scene or the one sat outside the headmaster's office with a grin the size of England. He's funny, intriguing and easy to befriend however, he's hard to stick with, and often leads to trouble. Maybe that's why he's the one who most people are betting their money on, whether it's to disappear or prevail though, who knows?

[ Irish ] tall, athletic build, rosy warm tanned skin tone, bubblegum pink dyed hair (1c) — naturally dark brown — that's longer on top than on the sides and is usually styled up and out of his face, cat-like cornflower blue almond shaped eyes covered with large round glasses — currently sporting a pair of silver frames, a light smattering of freckles over the bridge of his romanesque nose with a bump on the bridge — it helps keep his glasses on his face, bow-shaped lips with a thinner upper lip — if you look closely there is a scar where a medusa piercing has been healed over, shallow dimples that only appear when he grins widely. [ 6'1" ]

Petra Molina [ 17 — F — Pansexual ] — as one of the only Non-British people at Green Valley, Petra brings a lot of intrigue and gossip wherever she goes — both the positive and negative kinds due to her appearance and life-style. Outwardly she never seems fazes by the whispers gathering in her shadow and she tends to keep to herself but she's a deeply passionate person as well as a loyal and protective friend, one that builds an almost perfect support system no matter what you'll go through.

[ Polish-Canadian ] small, petite frame — not much muscle and not a lot of fat, cool beige skin tone — often seen with rosy cheeks despite the weather of what she's feeling and wearing the colour black as clothing or makeup doesn't seem to wash her out paler, waist-length chestnut brown wavy hair (2c) that is usually left down and wind-swept in style with a choppy fringe that falls in a middle parting, down-turned hooded eyes, small snub nose, narrow lips with a straight cupid's bow and undefined philtrum, a singular beauty spot of the right side of her chin. [ 4'11" ]

Dakota Green [ 16 — F/M — Demi-sexual ] — the person who's friendly with everyone but the one no-one seems to know anything about. Not much is known about Dakota except the vast rumours that surround them and their family name — the biggest one being that the Green family are one of the founding families of the Green Valley Academic Chain. They have power and connections and might just be the key to figuring out the darker secrets surrounding Casadia Hall, you'd just have to get close enough for their walls to crumble.

[ Black-British ] average build — not particularly thin but not plump either, rich brown skin tone, shoulder-length white freshly bleach-dyed afro (4b) usually styled in two low puffs (F) or in a natural afro (M), black thin and shaped eyebrows, dark brown downturned protruding eyes — a faint scar running through the left eye the colour is so similar to their skin tone most people don't notice it at a glance, flat bridged nubian shaped nose, heart shaped full lips — upper lip thins out when they smile, a small and hard to differentiate beauty spot under the left side of their lips. [ 5'5" / 5'8" ]

Echo Edwards [ 16 — F/M/NB — Bisexual ] — Echo is the person most people wish they could be: the one most people are too scared to be. They're cool, calm and collected which a natural charm and a never-ending well of sage and though-provoking advice. They're the type of person people can't seem to insult, no matter how hard they try and the type of person who's smooth words could potentially get them, you and your house out of the worst types of trouble. However, is this worth their time? Or would their effort be better placed on keeping it out of mystery?

[ Thai-Welsh ] "attractively androgynous" average build — no particular curvature, fat or muscle however they have more muscle than they let on, rich sienna skin tone, dark dyed purple-almost-black (naturally dark brown) chest-length hair (1b) often styled tied up in some way — most commonly tied up in twin twisted space buns, dark brown straight medium-thick eyebrows, wide set monolided hazel-brown eyes, singular beauty mark directly under the outside corner of their right eye, short button nose with a stud piercing on right side, oval shaped lips with a fuller upper lip, straight shaped cupid's bow and defined vermillion boarder, one dimple on the left side that only appears when they smile. [ 5'7" ]

Lyric Bronwin [ 16 — NB — Non-Sex-Repulsed-Asexual, Pan-romantic ] — as someone who has never liked to be kept caged, Lyric lets their rebellious nature shine through in everything they do. They're outspoke and quick to defend what they believe in — due to excellent debate skills and some tough times in a couple of foster homes. They're good at finding loopholes and giving a change of perspective, which is especially useful when you start to get tunnel-visioned and stuck on a problem. It's hard to say no to them but that doesn't mean they're easy to like — what would be for the best?

[ Japanese ] lithe "unathletic with a fast metabolism" build, fair fawn skin tone, jaw length jet black hair (1a) often styles outwards under a beanie making their hair look shorter, thick yet shaped black eyebrows, double-lidded chocolate brown upturned asian eyes, narrow, straight nose with a high nose bridge — hooped septum piercing, small mouth and small lips, short and well-maintained thin moustache — to "confuse the prejudiced". [ 5'9" ]

OTHER CHARACTERS OF IMPORTANCE

Melinda Khan, Head Master [ 47 — F ] — the current headmaster of Green Valley Connection and Boarding School, London. Her smile is serene when it isn't sharp and her presence is calm and kind when it isn't rigid and intimidating. It's hard to get a read on her and it's even harder to keep secrets from her. They only questions left are — what does she know and who's side is she on?

Geoffrey Davies, Grounds Keeper [ 52 — M ] — stand-offish and not really in a good way, he's quiet and broody and isn't afraid of 'powerful people'. He's quite the mystery as the only thing people really know of the man is his love for gardening, unfortunately he's terrifying to talk to with a pair of hedge sheers in his hands.

Noaki Bushby, House Keeper [ 39 — NB ] — in charge of looking after the house rather than its inhabitants, Naoki is as kind as they are awkward and it's blatantly obvious they're much more suited to house keeper. They have background in architecture and home decoration making them incredibly suited to the job but they're kind of scary when you can hear them coming.

Archie Novak, House Mother [ 40 — M ] — takes on the role of 'mother' with pride. He has a degree in psychology and his previous job was working in a day care facility. Archie is loving and nurturing and is a warm and welcoming presence at Casadia Hall.

Mister, House Cat [ 3+ — M ] — Ragdoll, white body with a fully chocolate brown face. No one can recall where he came from, just that his name is Mister and he's been at Casadia Hall for three years.

UPDATES:

hi! welcome to green valley. you may have seen 'green valley' before in regards to trick serve, my other interactive fiction — so don't worry about plagiarism. this is because these two books will be in the same universe! green valley is the name of the chain of academic locations i made up! in this if you'll be playing an MC in their teens in a boarding school. (there won't be any connection to trick serve).

i will be focusing on this if first, think of this as a tool for me to learn coding through doing it and not getting super stuck or annoyed - it won't be as complicated.

— DEMO TBA —

THE SATYA SOCIETY is my current project, a slice-of-life visual novel that will be free-to-play, with an optional paid version for extra romance routes available. This is a long-drawn process that I’m excited to share with you all, but to do so, I’ll need you to bear with me! The actual VN will be published through @studioduchess , but since this is my project, this blog is mine to share progress and hopefully gain some interest.

PREMISE?—

Stonewell Academy for Troubled Youth and Adolescence (SATYA) is an off-the-grid reformative boarding school for students from middle school all the way through to college. You are Stonewells newest addition, a 14-year-old ‘delinquent’ that will traverse your way through reform school life for the foreseeable future. As Stonewell ages, so do you — and you find yourself making friends (and enemies) that could last a lifetime. Let Stonewell reform your ways, or rebel alongside your friends and make memories none could forget— if you’re lucky, you may even grow close enough with our cast to form your own secret society…

WHY SHOULD I SUPPORT YOU?—

Because I am a lonesome girl writing a whole ass visual novel while her gap year gives her the free time. Obviously you have every right to scroll past me, but any support genuinely means a lot to me. Likes, reblogs and follows motivate me beyond belief, and I promise I can bring something to you worth following for. I am not asking for financial help yet, I wouldn’t ask for money from anyone without giving them something in return. Until I can provide more of a structured advertisement, all expenses will be paid by yours truly. *crying eyes*

WHERES OUR STEAMY ROMANCE?!?!???—

It is here, my darling dearest. The SATYA Society is rated 17+ for skippable suggestive/sexual scenes later on when everyone is of age. In the free version, you have 2 main romances you can pursue, one male and one female. With the paid version, your romantic interests jump from 2 to 7, with 2 polyamorous routes available within the cast. No romance paths are gender-locked, but some RO’s do have preferences, and will be easier to romance as certain genders. You can set how comfortable you are with physical affection, as well, which will stop/encourage characters to hug, kiss you etc.

HOW CUSTOMISABLE ARE WE?—

I’m gonna be honest, I was definitely thinking of gender-locking your character to make things (a lot) easier for me, and I’m still considering it. But for now, your name, gender and sexuality are completely customisable. You can customise your appearance, personality and even personalise your background before coming to Stonewell Academy. Your family is prewritten and can’t be changed, but you can decide your relationship with them, alongside everyone at the school. My goal with this book was to give y’all great replay value, and I believe I’ve done just that. You can experience two completely different stories with each play through.

HOW MUCH HAVE YOU EVEN DONE, YOU SEEM LIKE A DISORGANISED PRICK—

First of all, that’s rude. But I’ve almost finished writing everything. My next step after finishing the writing is to get the cast drawn (I’m adept in my art but honestly if I can afford it I’ll commission someone), get the story coded and put it all together to release. This will take a hell of a while, so don’t get too excited, haha.

WHO ARE YOU?—

I’m Christina :) I’ve been writing since I was 14, and loving visual novels and interactive fiction since 15. I’ve just graduated from high school last year, and am taking a gap year before going off to college. I won’t admit that I used to write fanfiction, and may or may not have gained a real following writing smut on tumblr LMAO… regardless though, I’m really passionate about storytelling, and have some real cool ideas to share.

CAN I ASK QUESTIONS ABOUT _______???—

Yes. Please please do, I want to share this with you as I write, I promise I’m nice LMAO

ROMANCE CAST!—

FREE VERSION:

Isaac Spence is your main male romance option. He is the glistening sun, as some would say— bright and gorgeous, tall and warm. Isaac is your typical boy-next-door, always on his best behaviour, kind and welcoming towards most, it makes you wonder what he did to get himself sent out to a reform school. If you play as a male, Isaac will be your roommate! In the first act, and half of the second act, Isaac is dating Courtney Knight, who just so happens to be your other main romance option… 👀

*Full character profile coming

Courtney Knight is not the girl next door. She is an aspiring clothing designer who is just about as entitled as they come. She manages to keep a close group of friends, however, so there must be more to her than just a catty somebody. Courtney expresses her love teasingly, rather than warmly like Isaac. (Maybe that’s why they don’t work out, haha). She is strong willed and very much an independent woman— sure, it takes a while to gain her trust, but you might have a valuable relationship with Courtney if you try hard enough. If you play as a female, Courtney is your roommate! In the first act, and half of the second act, she is dating Isaac Spence.

PAID VERSION:

Mary DeSmidt is quiet and inconsolable. Rumours float around the school about how such a sweet girl could get sent to the strictest standing reform school. She is the embodiment of kindness, and always willing to lend a helping hand to you. Mary is driven by emotions, and needs a bit more time than others to handle to growing change of life at a boarding school. She also takes a little more guidance when it comes to feelings, and has a more complex romance path than the others.

Harper Vale is… a mayfly. He knows everything about everyone, floats between all the social groups at Stonewell Academy and still somehow doesn’t have a best friend. Courtney tells you he is a compulsive liar, and is trying to ‘manipulate the faculty out of a full ride at Stonewell’, which explains the perfect grades and attendance rates… Harpers romance path is…shaky, to put it nicely.

*Full character profile coming

Coen Day is hard to get to know. They’re always going off on their own, disappearing in the middle of class, not returning until night. Apparently their attendance rates are in the red, but Coen has always been known to run. Coen is quiet, sure, but they’re also loyal and smart. They would never share a secret of yours, or undermine your experiences and aspirations. Befriending Coen is a feat in itself, but one worth doing— Coen is the type of friend one needs at Stonewell. Coen is also asexual.

*Full character profile coming

Priya Hammond is a burning fire, scorching everything in her path. She is loud, capable and Courtney’s all time best friend. Priya has been sent to detention for questioning a teacher’s moral standpoint more times than once, and is very politically inclined. She is truly gifted with her brains, but would much rather search the depths of the internet for trivial facts about a small town in Europe than study for school a moment longer than she has to. Bring up any topic around her, she will know something about it.

*Full character profile coming

Laiken Allard-Rose arrives in the second act, and is Isaac’s childhood best friend. He is energy personified, always looking for an adventure to drag you along or a joke to crack at just the wrong time. Nothing is too daring for Laiken, and you’ll find that forming a friendship with him definitely includes him arriving at your window in the middle of the night to go on an adventure (raiding the school kitchens). Family is the most important thing to Laiken, and will do anything for you once you’re considered his family, whether romantically or platonically. ( i would play his romance route just to experience the dates he would take you on lol)

*Full character profile coming

POLYAMOROUS ROUTES:

* these characters can be romance together or apart.

Laiken & Isaac. Who knew the childhood best friends that may have had heavy crushes on each other growing up would end up romantically inclined… dates with these two are a festival of laughter and love. Isaacs warm presence and Laikens exciting romantic inclination is the perfect combination, and I’m sure the boys could show enough love to you for a lifetime more.

Priya & Coen. These personalities somehow work perfectly when it comes to love. Priya and Coen can be romanced together to create the ultimate game night team… their smarts, Priya’s competitive nature and Coen’s strategical thinking?? Automatic win.

DEMO TBA: 

Detective, your previous endeavours working for us have proven your capabilities are beyond measure. I trust that you will take on this assignment with a clear head and complete censorship: no one other than your appointed team shall know about your endeavours. I fear that if this operation is not pulled off smoothly, the world shall be in the hands of evil. Best of luck.

SYNOPSIS // CASE BRIEFING

I assume you remember the extensive effort our best personnel put into neutralising the leader of DODGE, Viktor Madsen, back in 2018. We were successful in our operation and DODGE fell silent: we kept an eye on them and heard nothing, assumed they had disbanded. Just a week ago, our cybersecurity professionals started reporting strange activity throughout the city: data leaks, an influx of online propaganda, dark web trades almost tripling in a week- it has DODGE written all over it. We already have professionals working to disarm any cyberterrorism threats they send our way, dealing with DODGE as a group is manageable, its the mastermind behind it all that we must neutralise: that is where you will come in. 

On Wednesday night, Viola Springs police officers brought in a young woman by the name of Lola Raith. Miss Raith was arrested for aggravated assault, but our attention is on the DODGE branding she has on the back of her neck. We confiscated her mobile phone and personal laptop and have found condemning information about DODGE that is concerning at the least. From what we have gathered, DODGE has been taken over by someone going by ‘Echo’. Echo has instigated a new regime to DODGE, planning on dividing their efforts between cyberterrorism and drug distribution. They have been advertising a new age in their outstanding propaganda: ‘The Soul Harvest’.  This ‘Echo’ individual has made formal threats to those holding Raith in custody, promising ‘catastophic resistance’ if she were to be charged. This leads us to believe Miss Raith is someone that Echo holds close: you are going to take advantage of that. 

Currently, we have no information on this new drug being pushed by DODGE, and it may be dangerous. This, alongside your close proximity to DODGE members on this operation, is why I have assigned you a small team that you will be working with to take Echo, and the whole of DODGE, down. Good luck. 

THE ROMANCEABLE CAST // PERSONAL FILES

ECHO: the mastermind. [M]

Unfortunately, all we know about Echo is what we have gotten out of Miss Raith so far. She has let slip that he is male, and an indirect heir to DODGE, once working below Viktor Madsen: the depth of their relationship is unknown. The small amount of communication we have had with Echo has told us he is dangerous and willing to take action against us. He used to write political thesis’ under the username “ECHO_CHAMBER” , but any connections to his old doings have been fried. He seems to hold Miss Raith close in relationship, whether they are romantically involved or not is unknown- we have confirmed that they are not related in any way. The last known online appearance he has made was two weeks ago, where he distributed a string of propaganda idolising “THE SOUL HARVEST” which we think is the first step in his new drug push. He made direct contact with us via an untraceable phone call on Thursday demanding we free Raith from custody, otherwise we will face ‘catastrophic resistance’ from him and his respective peoples. You are to stop at no ends to find this man and bring him back to us: dead or alive. 

LOLA RAITH: the devout follower. [F]

Miss Lola Raith was arrested after assaulting a known drug dealer on the outskirts of town. When police arrived to the scene, responding to a witnesses call, Lola was still assaulting the man, who is recovering in hospital for the time being. Talking to him may give you an idea of what happened. Raith has faced questioning these last few days, and has shown to run her mouth just a bit too much. Slowly but surely we are straining information out of her, she has refused the counsel of a lawyer, which is strange in itself. Lola’s computer was searched, and encrypted chatlogs were found where she talks to multiple other people about “getting excited for the new drop” and arranging multiple get-togethers which we are monitoring closely. Lola being taken into custody has been a silent matter, so how DODGE knows about her arrest is unknown so far. You and your partner are going to take charge of interrogations from now on. A dossier of information will be on your desk tomorrow, I advise you read through it and learn her mannerisms before talking to her. She is your first step to dismantling DODGE. 

TOBY KLEIN: the communications expert. [M]

I understand that you and Toby have worked well together in the past, I even remember him referring to you as his ‘best friend’ so I am putting you two on the same team in the hopes that your chemistry will boost our findings. He will act as communications expert: guiding you on operations and finding out what he can about the cyberterrorism aspect of Echoes operations: you and your partner will be working in tandem with Toby, but be focusing on his drug push. Toby will not be working in the field with you and your partner: he is to stay off the grid at all times. Klein has proven to be competent in his communications, although sometimes he exhibits childish behaviours and unfocused characteristics: please keep him on track. This is a serious operation that could harm many, I do not need the terrible two fucking things up. 

ALEXIS HAYES: your partner. [F]

I understand that you and Detective Hayes have formed some sort of rivalry over the years working for us: I wouldn’t put the two of you together under any other circumstances, but the two of you are my most competent detectives and I will not tolerate any dispute between the two of you. Detective Hayes will act in equal to you, her strong personality and ability to make people talk will aid you in interrogations: she is self-sufficient and hates DODGE almost as much as I do. She was also playing a minor role in the takedown of Viktor Madsen, so her knowledge of DODGE is advanced. Along with that, she has served on the DEA as a special agent, and her knowledge on streetworks and current drug circulations is crucial to this operation. Play nicely. 

SAILOR ANG: the undercover design ops. [NB]

Mx Ang is going to be the backbone to your undercover endeavours. They are a skilled makeup and SFX artist, alongside a textiles genius and the storyteller of a lifetime. Any new personalities you may need to don will be given to you by Sailor: they will also train you with new accents and increase your recall in order to remember specific details about your new personalities. Mx Ang is the only person outside of the force that can know about this operation: they are being compensated very kindly for their silence and will be available at any time necessary in return. Mx Ang is a sweet person, but don’t be fooled: getting on their bad side is a death sentence for yourself, and we need you alive. 

FEATURES 

This operation is going to be tedious. You’re going to perform interrogations, go undercover alongside your partner and try get in with DODGE. Attend parties for information, choose who you’re inviting home for the night and even pursue romantic relationships with the cast. Don’t get distracted, though: you have an evil mastermind to catch. Just don’t fall in love with him, that would be detrimental to this case…

—Make choices that will impact the ending you get (there are a few!).

—Learn more about DODGE, and their new leader, Echo. Decide for yourself whether they’re really as bad as the force thinks: maybe their agenda is the one to push?

—Play as your truest self: customise your appearance, personality, gender, preferred pronouns and sexuality! Inclusive customisation options are also here, depict whether your MC is trans, or if they wear a hijab or experience body dysphoria/dysmorphia. 

—Decide your approach when it comes to questioning suspects and confronting DODGE yourself: are you going to play bad cop, good cop or convert to DODGE’s ranks altogether? 

FINAL WARNINGS: 

The Soul Harvest is a story that contains strong depictions of drug use, violence and sexual themes (although skippable) strong and upsetting language is also prevalent in this story, and I advise you to read at your own discretion. 

Due to the optional sexual endeavours portrayed in this IF, it has been rated at 18+.
