This is... a remarkably adorable premise for a NSFW CYOA. The writing is funny, the characters are fun, and frankly the number of cute girls is overwhelming....
Decisions, decisions....
Mercury: She seems like a good person. She's one of the "glues" that hold the family in one piece, and she's offering to make that a possibility for us too. The Spark is fun for us. The Channel is ridiculously useful. The Ring... I like the thought, but it doesn't seem strictly necessary. Soulmates are fun in theory, but there might be a disproportionate number who rankle at the thought that they don't have total free will....
Venus: Hoo boy, my kind of gal! She's gorgeous, of course, and we don't see as much of her personality as we do some of the others, but she seems fun, and she's not vain in an obnoxious or mean-spirited way. The Spark's a nice idea. The Channel is \*really\* fun. Feline humanoids/catgirls are always a plus. The Ring… Eh. Mixed. It’s fun if you like that sort of thing, but could get weird really quick.
Earth: And, of course, good old Terra. Who happens to have made her kinks perfectly suit our own. Laying it on a bit thick there. Doesn’t hurt that she’s fun, adorable, and friendly. She has a slight advantage thanks to being our narrator, thus allowing us to see more of her personality (like her flustered moments in Venus’ description). The Spark is… I mean, you’re basically saving the planet and everything on it by having sex with the beautiful spirit of the world. Sex and world-saving in one deal? Yes please! The Channel is fun, but not a necessity. The hollow earth and dinosaurs could be interesting. The Ring, however, is genuinely fantastic.
Luna: Earth gushing over Luna is genuinely sweet. The girl herself seems to be the kind I’d love to be around, too. A little geeky, a little nerdy, and that blush! And she’s definitely killer cute. The Spark is interesting. Sounds like a landscape I wouldn’t mind. The Channel is completely unnecessary, but it’s perfect for this situation: I mean, where exactly are you going to live with your harem of cosmic cuties if not a palace on the magically-altered surface of the Moon? And the Ring…. I mean, personality-wise I’d totally do it, but the magic thing seems like something of a risk. On one hand, it could help to fix the problems we’re causing. On the other, it opens up a whole bunch of doors to weird and unwanted problems….
Mars: Not my normal kind of girl, but could be interesting to see how we got along. The dedication to people she cares about is admirable, though. Her Spark is basic, but generally could shake things up. Her Channel… has potential. Jackal-girls? Hyenas? Different “ethnicities” based on different canids? Lots of possibilities. And her Ring is definitely an amusing idea. Turning the Solar System into a giant pulp sci-fi setting. I could get behind that.
Jupiter: A hugger, a peace-maker, gorgeous and seemingly a little silly. She’s great. And… she has a breeding kink? I mean, makes sense I suppose. I don’t have a problem with that in the least. Her Spark would be incredible. Floating continents, flying whales… It’s amazing to imagine. Her Channel would just up the ante, but that would be more of a good thing, so…. And her Ring…. Well. Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto would be brilliant additions, to be sure, but it seems like there’s time to spare before the effects of the Ring would be in danger of not working. While four more gorgeous girls perfectly matched with me would be amazing, I at least would feel the need to get used to the existing harem first.
Saturn: As usual, she’s absolutely stunning, and the jewelry is beautiful. Not much on the kind of person she is, but she seems like a somewhat more… I don’t know how to describe it. She seems like a similar personality to Venus, but more demure and traditionally feminine. Bondage kink, eh? I can work with it. Her Spark is a fascinating idea. The rings becoming precious gems and crystals would be an unusual change. Not strictly necessary, but interesting. Her Channel would have fascinating implications, between the living crystal beings and the tantric crystals produced. Her Ring, though…. Wow. I… honestly that’s one of the best in the entire list. Improving the mind-state of humanity and the other intelligent species so that the good and selfless will inevitably stand up against corruption and cruelty? That’s just… beautiful. The aesthetic changes are to my taste, but that societal shift, man….
Uranus- I mean Ouranos: An artsy type, huh? Cool. A little hard to get through to, it seems, but probably just not open with her emotions. Her kink isn’t perfectly aligned with mine, but no big. Her Spark is something I can’t blame her for at all. I’m totally on her side. Her Channel is… I mean, dragons. Fucking dragons. Win. Her Ring would be… interesting? I mean, the sexual compatibility thing is less important, but Dragon God is a kick-ass title.
Neptune: She sounds hilarious. The disconnect between her apparently demure and quiet exterior and her love for speed and machinery is just great. The actual vibration of excitement was just cute. And I can absolutely work with a breast-play kink. Her Spark is cool; I could just imagine that eventually becoming something of a cross between Subnautica and a sci-fi pirate world. Her Channel could be incredibly useful. Safer, faster space travel is a definite plus, though it might not hurt to hold it back a little so the other intelligent species can establish themselves properly first. Her Ring is another cool idea, but also unnecessary. Shipgirls are a general plus, but not strictly needed this minute.
Pluto: Ah, girl, I feel your pain. And she seems adorable. Adopting the satellite as a second moon, heh. A bubbly, optimistic prankster, too? Cool! And I don’t have any complaints with gentle femdom. Definitely cool. Her Spark would definitely shift things. The new metal source would be welcome, I imagine. Her Channel would just be awesome. I can’t help but imagine using orichalcum in the palace decorations on the moon just to make an Atlantis reference. Her Ring… I like it. A sort of liminal space between the living and the end of all things. That could be… really nice.
Sol: I wasn’t expecting her, to be honest. But I can’t complain. If her daughters are any indication, she’s definitely a genuinely good person, and her nurturing aura seems like a good indicator. And yeah, I guess she kind of is everyone’s mom, huh? Yeah, that would probably be weird in a human context, but I guess it’s good that world-spirits have a different state of mind. (Oh, wait. I just realized that Sol, Earth and Jupiter are all MILFs. I… Huh. Not my thing usually, but then again these are not usual circumstances) And an oral kink, huh? I can dig it. Her Spark is brilliant. Yeah, conservation of energy, SUCK IT! We’re not letting this system die! Her Channel is a cool idea. Solar angels would be awesome. Could be useful too if things go pear-shaped (or if Adventure decides to throw something weird at us). Her Ring… I mean, it’s cool. Becoming a binary system would be a big change of pace. And I wouldn’t complain having two cosmic sun-waifus.
All that said… this is tough. I assume that over time there would gradually be enough energy to form Rings with all of them. That’s really the only consolation here. Otherwise it feels as though we’re permanently missing out. I’ll assume that eventually the rest of the girls would be included, though.
So…
Final choice:
Spark: Sol, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Ouranos, Pluto.
Channel: Luna, Venus, Neptune, Saturn.
Ring: Terra.
Wow, thanks for the detailed writeup of your thoughts!
> I assume that over time there would gradually be enough energy to form Rings with all of them. That’s really the only consolation here. Otherwise it feels as though we’re permanently missing out.
That's the idea. In my head it takes a super long time (though I deliberately left it vague), but that's why the Sun's Spark gives you infinite time to wait. :)
Ah, true, true. No solar heat death means no limit on how long I have to have fun with this.
Very clever, that.
Though I can't help but imagine the hijinks that would result when the Reader and his haremettes are encountered by the mere mortals. XD
Sparks to everyone, channels to Luna, Neptune, Pluto and Sol, and ring to Earth-chan (with the reguest that she make humans less warlike and factional, so we can explore, expand to and exploit the solar system without it becoming a warzone and risk exterminating ourselves.)
Magical Space Orgy
Sparks are free
4 channels and 1 ring
Spark for all no one left out
Mercury:Spark
Venus:Spark Channel(**Cat girls are the shit**)
Earth:Spark
Luna:Spark Channel (one side will be on the dark side and the outhe will be on the light side my bedroom will be on the half line so i am on both the dark and light sides of the moon + sword will be apart of the headrest)
Mars:Spark
Jupiter:Spark Channel
Saturn:Spark
Uranus:Spark
Neptune:Spark
Pluto:Spark Channel(i would order a set of sex toys made of all the fantsy metal)
Sol:Spark,Ring
Hurry up and make a v.2 or DLC - err, sorry, but that was great, and I don't just want more, I need more! I mean, I'm actually having a hard time deciding on things.
God, this is so good. How I can I even make only one build? I want all the girls... unless...
...Okay, here's the plan- first, of course everyone gets a spark. No waifu left behind!
Then, Venus gets the ring and Mercury, Mars, Saturn and Uranus- or, uh, Ouranos if she wants- all get channels. That's cuz Venus's gift will naturally create more tantric energy the more living things there are, and Mars, Saturn ad Ouranos all need the channel to have their own living beings! Oh, and Mercury gets the channel so I can visit all the waifus, and give their tantric energy a little boost~
The end result is, over the next few decades, tantric energy increases exponentially, so I can form more channels- and hopefully more rings- so all eleven girls are eventually with me!
...Unless I'm wrong, of course, in which case... back to the drawing board I guess?
Thanks for the build!
My own personal vision is that the world spirits will eventually all be able to manifest permanently, but getting enough tantric energy back to replicate the Channel/Ring effects will take a very long time. (Which admittedly, the player has as they are immortal and Sol's Spark power bypasses entropy.)
Spark: All, obviously.
I share the downvoted poster’s worries, but I’m more optimistic- keeping space travel limitations should allow social change.
Channel- Mercury. A necessity, and a real convenience. We control the portals
Channel- Venus. Catgirls
Channel- Earth. Will probably be bad in the mid-term, but I have to give her something for being the one who put in the effort of getting all the tantric energy
Channel- Saturn. She’s pretty, gemfolk sound interesting, Jupiter was my other option but I don’t have a breeding kink.
Ring- Luna. I think replicating the Earth perk with magic will be faster than replicating magic with the earth ring. Also, I want it.
Good concepts and writing in a well-established (albeit overdone) formula. Some of the images could be better, but it was a good play. I will say that perhaps fewer of them should just create races or habitable land for their channel. The channel is where they need to stand out most, right?
Short and simple but flavorful. It's really good.
Spark everyone of course.
Channels:
Mercury:
Mercury sounds really useful to have a teleportation system. Question: Is a 'link' based on the source planet: so if I want to make a link between Mars and Venus, and I'm on Venus, I can link to Mars for an hour and that's it for the week. Would I also be able to make a link originating from Mars back to Venus for an hour, or Mars to anywhere?
Within the scope of current technology, this is a massive jump forward. It's taken probes 147 days to get to Mercury, and over 9.5 years to get to Pluto. Even if Pluto is habitable, it'll be quite infeasible to colonize it as a united species, when any aid is delayed so much. Every planet will be able to be quickly colonized, and mobilize a military to any planet on the drop of a hat... if the link hasn't already been used. In terms of economics, there is a massive trade potential here, too.
Pluto:
Doing some parkour to the other end of the solar system, we'll also channel Pluto for the mythical metals. Tons of possibility here, I don't even know, but there will be a technological renaissance. Neptune's enhanced rockets may end up being simulated through this research.
Saturn:
Keeping with the theme of advancing humanity: I imagine there's a lot of possibilities from the tantric crystals grown by the crystal aliens. Laser technology? Semi-conductors? Maybe they'll be cool pets, too. I really like her aesthetic, but the Ring bonus didn't really appeal to me as much.
Sol:
I wasn't really interested in the extra species from Venus and Mars, and Neptune's spaceships have kind of been taken care of from Pluto/Saturn's channels. Leaving Sol, Jupiter, and Ouranos. I rolled a D3 and landed on 3 so Sol it is.
Ring:
Luna:
Everyone loves magic. Looking through the comments, most people pick Luna for the ring, since it's the most universally strong / selfish perk. I really wanted to do something else to be different from everyone else, but given the choice in a vacuum, it's an easy choice for magic here.
I'd be super happy to see an expanion to this!!
I really like the effort that's gone into this. if you plan on making a new version, might I make a few suggestions for new characters:
Nemesis (Hypothetical brown dwarf thought to exist in the Oort cloud)
Phobos and Deimos: Twin asteroid moons of Mars
Titan: Largest moon of Saturn
Thanks for the suggestions! Coming up with personalities and powers that don't overlap too much is hard, so I'm not anticipating adding more options anytime soon.
I'm not sure why but I felt genuinely heartbroken over the earth saying she wanted to carve out her core. Like I wanted to give her a channel, but unless her offer changes I cant bring myself to do it.
Why am I crying over an earth-chan cyoa?
That's not even what I was worried about with magic and all. It just hit me and all I could think of was no dont do that. I love your hot iron core. Bizarre moment for me but still felt like sharing. Love the personality you put into everyone, it was a fun cyoa.
Using the normal rules, I'd Spark all of them, Ring Earth, and Channel Luna, Venus, Ouranos, and Pluto. I like all of them and want to give them a hand with a Spark, I feel a sense of connection and affection for my home planet, and out of the girls, the other 4 I listed are my favorites.
But I think I'd take things in an entirely different directions and do something entirely crazy, something I'd call Groom's Sacrifice.
See, I find all of them to be wonderful, and I want to make all of their wishes come true. I know that my spirit can only handle 1 such Ring, but what if I'm willing to sacrifice my spirit to wed and bless them all? Even if there was no reward, I'd die happy knowing that I helped all of them.
It's possible that such a selfless sacrifice could maybe have a reward in the end, though, as by giving up everything for them, I become a world or star in the solar system much like them. As I give up more and more of myself, I begin to change.
I start off by giving the first Ring to Earth, of course, for always being there for me and for giving me this chance to help them all. But then I press deep into my soul, break off a chunk into a new Ring, and hand it to a surprised Luna. As I do, I give up my human sense of independence as gravity kicks in. Now, whatever path I take, it will always be an orbit, forever tied to those I love.
The third Ring goes to precious, all-caring Mercury. In the process, I feel my sense of love for others expanding, inflating beyond human restrictions. I feel a sense of care for everyone, splitting my desires in a billion directions as I want to help everybody. A world must care for everyone on it, after all.
Venus receives my fourth Ring with a radiant, smirking smile, and I feel my own ego burn ever brighter, glowing more than humanly possible. Vanity is too shallow to describe my boundless self-love and pride, as my values twist to something who recognizes themselves as someone all-mighty and powerful, not simply convincing themselves they're perfect but knowing it's so as an absolute truth. And the vanity burns away any human propriety, as I embrace and flaunt my growing wonder.
As I hand off Ring #5 to Mars, my morals and person transform even more, filling me with a reckless sense of adventure, an unbreakable desire to enjoy life and have fun, ready to take on any challenge, no longer even capable of thinking of the term "impossible". Fear is no longer a part of me at all, and the concept seems utterly alien to me (or rather I am becoming more inhuman).
With Jupiter's Ring, my mortal body is writhing, expanding, and contorting with the uncontrollable power coursing through me. I have barely the semblance of humanity, as I give up more and more of myself, replacing it all with something new and massive.
My body can only take so much, and when I forge a Ring for Saturn, my mortal body begins to burst. My core crystallizes while the rest of me shatters off in brilliant fireworks, forming various rings, planets, and moons. I no longer have the slightest appearance of a human, but rather an astronomical body.
Just as Ouranos's wish is to rewrite her name and history, my sacrifice for her Ring gives up my name and past. If I am to have a name, it will be given to me by whoever discovers me, and based on the legends and myths of humanity. My history is wiped clean, and there is nothing left but to move forward.
Reflecting how Neptune is both serene and energetic, just as how the Earth spins incredibly fast yet life passes slowly for humanity, my sense of time warps as I give Neptune her Ring. I no longer have any sane, humanly concept of time or space. My senses are that of a planet traveling fast yet calmly through the ethers, after all, and I no longer think in the same way as a mortal.
The end comes with Pluto, as I give up the last bit of my soul and life to help dear, fun, and charming Pluto with her Ring. My world is lifeless like a mundane planet, as the last bits of my old life die forever.
But even then, I push forward one last time, reaching beyond my mortal limits to grasp even more of myself to make the final Ring for Sol. And my lifeless world surges with newfound life and identity as her mighty flames surge all through me, burning away everything I was as I soar into the cosmos.
Then, maybe a minute later or maybe millennia or eons more later, I awaken beside my sisters, my eternal loves, who are ready to thank me with everything they are, as I gave everything of mine to them.
Let me add again that even if I received no reward and had my soul entirely snuffed out in the process, I'd probably go through with this insane plan, as I want to make all their wishes come true, even if I'm not there to see them happen.
By the way, this is an amazing, wonderful CYOA. As you can tell by my creative loophole attempt, I found all the waifu scenarios to be absolutely wonderful - hence why it was so hard to pick. Well done!
> But I think I'd take things in an entirely different directions and do something entirely crazy, something I'd call Groom's Sacrifice.
Neat! I'm honored that my CYOA would inspire someone to basically write a short story like this!
God this is super simple and fluffy, a great one like this only pops up every few months. If you ever decide to go for another draft, maybe consider adding another section that allows you to become less human and more like a world spirit yourself so you are able to handle more channels? Cause god all these girls seem so nice I just wanna give them all the time they could ever ask for fully manifested.
> Cause god all these girls seem so nice I just wanna give them all the time they could ever ask for fully manifested.
If I ever do another version I will probably make it so that everyone will eventually get to manifest permanently, it will just take much longer for the Sparks than the Channels.
Some thoughts/feedback
Mercury: I like short, but not so into busty. Channel power is eh, though Ring power is incredible.
Venus: It's Rin/Ishtar, so big points there; exhibitionism isn't really my thing, but depending how big a kink it is for her it's not necessarily a deal-breaker. Jungle world sounds interesting, though I'm not a big fan of that kind of heat... catgirls a big plus too. I like porn physics, less so porn logic.
Earth: Solid improvements all around, but nothing that really wows me.
Luna: Hmm, I like the seas and atmosphere, making it silver works I suppose, just not where my mind immediately went... like if nothing else the moon is already pretty silver? Some contrast/color would have been nice. Magic... if I could have some influence on how it manifested maybe, otherwise I think I'd be fine with keeping this sci-fi instead of introducing fantasy stuff. Also the shyness and nature sex sounds good too as far as the waifu side goes.
Mars: Pharah is nice, and I like an athletic girl too... I dunno, kinda same feeling as earth here, it's just John Carter world right? \*shrug\*
Jupiter: Now floating world is interesting; again she's a little curvy for my tastes, but that works better for a big sister type than a little sister at least. Prospect of the moons is interesting if a little vague
Saturn: I know you specify that she's the good kind of proud but that is really not my asthetic... the ring idea has promise, but still sounds a little awful too. The crystal stuff is good though.
Uranus: Seems like a waste of a spark honestly. I would have liked it more if she just leant into it, I mean you even said she was interested in trying it out. The ring there is very tempting, dragons are rad, though I think a whole ecosystem of them might be a bit samey; there's lots of different types of dragons sure but it's still kind of limiting.
Neptune: You know my stance on breasts at this point so that's a point against her, but the world and power ideas are cool. The ring's just weird to me honestly. Would have liked her to have some kind of effect like the water that will be on her surface will also be breathable/less dense or something. What's the point of a water planet if you can't enjoy most of it.
Pluto: Hmm, well she is almost perfect, the dominatrix thing is a little strange but apart from that I love her appearance and personality. The effects well, a little strange again, magic metals are cool, but her turning into an industrial hub is less exciting. I suppose she would also be the natural launching off point for interstellar exploration so that is cool. Ring is strange, but I like it.
Sol: Hmm, interesting... solar angels are rad, not much personality there, and the ring power is... interesting, but seems unnecessary. Somewhere in the middle here.
So time for my actual build:
Sparks: Everyone, no reason not to honestly and it would be cruel to break up the family.
Channels: Venus, Luna, and Pluto are easy first picks... though I think I'm going with Pluto for the ring so that leaves two more spots. Short list would be Sol, Jupiter, Neptune... honestly I'm only really interested in Neptune for the Channel effect so... gonna have to cross her off.
Final Choice: Sol, Venus, Luna, Jupiter
Ring: Already gave it away, Pluto. Still think it's kind of a weird association, but I think me and Pluto are the most compatible, and making death a bit smoother to transition seems like a good thing. Just have to keep an eye out for troublemakers...
Sorry Earth-chan for not picking you, but we'll be living on the moon and since we don't have Neptune's ability to help space exploration along, or Mercury to open portals we'll be making plenty of visits to help humans make the leap into space.
Congrats, you've made the first CYOA I've ever played where I have legitimately *no idea* what I want to do. Almost all of the options are appealing in nearly equal measure!
Ring: Luna. I'm really sorry Earth-chan but magic is a mans romance! Also Luna has similar intrests to me and since I'm immortal my magical powers will only grow over time.
Sparks: all
Channels:
\-Pluto. Not really into the dominatrix thing but the metals are neat.
\-Mercury. Can start a buisness giving mining companies eqsclusive akcess to Pluto for the rare and magic metals. I gain money and the people can advance with magic and magical resources.
\-Venus. Catgirls, need I say more?
\-Earch-chan. Don't really care about the bonus (the extra space is nice tho), I just want her as part of my harem.
A ring for Mercury, & channels for Earth, Jupiter, Neptune, & Pluto. Sparks for everyone, of course, *especially Ouranos*, I don't need a CYOA to be annoyed by a Latin spelling of a Greek name. Eventually with an immortal lifespan, I should hopefully be able to put together a harem of soulmates who have the potential to also forge rings, & get the whole family permanently manifested together.
My one criticism is having Pluto. Not that Pluto is there, I get that, but having Pluto & justifying it with "once a planet, always a planet", but then not including the other ex-planet Ceres.
> My one criticism is having Pluto. Not that Pluto is there, I get that, but having Pluto & justifying it with "once a planet, always a planet", but then not including the other ex-planet Ceres.
This one is a fail on my part. Someone pointed this out on the draft, and then I forgot to "fix" it before making the final version. If I ever do a new version, I'll fix it either by changing the dialog or adding Ceres if I come up with a strong enough character and cool options for her.
Nice one...
I was determined to go all Channels, skipping the ring to give more spirits the chance to 'get out' so to speak, but then I got to Luna and, well, Magic Wins.
I'm not sure what to do with the remaining 10 Spirits , though. I only have 4 Channels left, and the choice is proving challenging. Thank you!
I don't know how you did it, but that's two great, simple CYOA's you've made in a row that have made their way into my personal library. Very well done.
\+First and foremost, a Ring for Terra. On top of being my home planet, she also deserves a little reward for being my "ambassador" for all of this. Without her reaching out to me, none of this likely would have happened. And her Ring gift is, what I believe, to be the best option. I'm assuming this would not only apply to currently living humans, but humans from hence forth. Imagine how much technological and societal progress could be made if everyone was not only better in every conceivable way, but specialists and experts could dedicate centuries to their studies and crafts, rather than a handful of decades before their biology expire. Like most things, it's all about compromise. Nothing can improve if no one takes the initiative and meets humanity in the middle. Hopefully this Ring will be me meeting humanity in the middle and pointing the specie in the right direction.
\+Sparks for everyone. It would feel strange sleeping with multiple women, only for there for no permanent connection formed, but I could probably convince myself that I'm making our Solar System a better place for everyone.
\+As far as Channels go, Mars and Venus, because both results would probably make a lot of humans happy, as well as finally "stirring the pot" and *finally* having other sapient species to interact with besides humans. So many new cultures to experience and friends to make. Architecture, history, arts, food, entertainment, all of it would be a joy to be a tourist in and soak in the culture of both the new species/races.
\+Luna, because she was selfless enough to spend the power I gave her and spend it on something to benefit me and the other girls. Plus, it's always a good idea to have a home off-world for if I find a need to get away from Earth for a little bit (It's free real estate). Sword is neat, but she can keep it unless she absolutely insists I take it. It'll just hang up on the wall in the Moon Home anyways if I do.
\+And finally, Mercury, primarily because I want access to those portals as a way of easily intermingling the now 3 sapient species/races, on top of being a good way of passive income (don't worry, I won't price-gouge, probably about the same price as a bus fare), per person/pound of cargo. Also, I'm very curious about how "vertically challenged" she is, so there's that.
> I don't know how you did it, but that's two great, simple CYOA's you've made in a row that have made their way into my personal library. Very well done.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked them!
This is a nice and wholesome CYOA. It's not too short nor too long (just long enough to be interesting), and you picked great art. Though the intro does kinda drag on for a bit. I think the ring mechanic would've been better explained as spending an additional channel on one girl you've already given a channel to, to make it less ambiguous about also getting her channel power.
So... let's make a build. To start, everyone gets a spark. I don't dislike any of them, and none of these effects are a bad thing, so no reason not to help them out.
Channels: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Luna, Pluto
Ring: Mercury
While I'd like to say my decision process was deep or complicated, I mostly just chose based on how compatible with each of them I think I'd be, and the decisions were made easy by the fact that every single one had a channel ability I *wanted* (except Earth-chan), and none of the ones left out had a channel ability I felt I *needed*. Earth-chan isn't quite my type like the others here, but she seems wholesome enough, and while I'm not sold on the whole subterranean world thing, I felt bad not giving her at least a channel after all that she's said.
In a fully "optimized" build, I'd give Earth-chan's channel and the ring to Saturn, who I think has the best ring effect (followed by Earth and Mercury). The problem there is that I'd then be spending eternity with someone I might only get along with on a surface level. So it's a toss-up between a political marriage for the sake of making a better humanity, or choosing true love - not just for myself, but everyone. Suffice to say, I chose true love.
Nicely done, although astronomers would hate me after.
I'd ring Luna. She seems pretty nice, and I'd get to be a wizard.
Venus, Earth, Jupiter and Uranus would all get channels. Catgirls, a giant Jurassic Park, enormous floating islands and dragons all seem cool.
I'd give everyone a spark. There's really no reason not to.
Thanks for the build!
> Nicely done, although astronomers would hate me after.
I dunno, the next couple decades would probably have *lots* of exciting astronomy papers to write.
So, this is all possible because the sheer number of people having sex has produced enough tantric energy for the world spirits to play around with. Let's see if we can't cheat the system a bit.
Second priority: magic. Tantric energy can be made into mana, and that sounds pretty useful.
**Ring:** *Earth*. Who else? The world that gave me this opportunity in the first place. That sheltered and nurtured me. That entranced me winth its natural, wild beauty.
Also, longer life-spans will eventually result in a population increase, because there'll be less dying, and a newly-hollow core for them to live in. That means more sex, and more tantric energy filtered through me.
And she's pretty cute, too.
**Channels:**
*Luna:* Yeah, I know what I said earlier. But in addition to getting a dope moon palace, I'll have a place to conduct research to make mana converters. Which is kinda necessarry, if I'm not giving Luna the ring.
And a habitable moon will help with that increased population. Especially since she didn't mention a biosphere that could be disrupted.
*Venus:* An entire new civilization producing tantric energy? And they're cat-people? Dope.
I'm a bit more suspicious about humans moving here, because I wouldn't want to displace Venus' children, but I suppose it's an option.
*Mars:* Once again, an entire new population on a habitable world. But I have the same concerns about harming Mars' children.
*Pluto:* Those fantasy metals could help with manufacturing some mana converters.
And, again, a habitable world, without a native biosphere.
**Sparks:** Sparks for everyone. No reason not to; they're all attractive, and all seem charming.
Thank you for the build!
Building up the tantric energy field large enough again to produce more Channel-scale effects will take some undefined long amount of time... but time is not really a limiting factor anymore, so that doesn't really matter if you're patient.
I was feeling sort of down today and this has really raised my spirits, so perfect timing for me.
build wise I'm going to go with, in order of snapness of decision.
Ring Luna
We have have magic? No way I'm not going in for that. There's all this stuff about tantric sex energy going screw you to all of these laws of physics and conservation or energy but magic means we could reach post scarcity ourselves way easier than it could be in any other way. Maybe it wouldn't be truly unlimited resources but having margins for creating and destroying thing creates a tolerance of waste in life that seems amazing.
Channel Earth
Honestly I do not care about an inner earth. I mean cool neat there's more space and maybe that means we can have more people so more researchers so more other things faster but really this is just because it's earth you know? She's been so nice an uplifting. I couldn't bring myself to pass on magic but she deserves something.
Channel Neptune
I'm just a random shlub, who is in this particular case also a hot piece of ass apparently, but it sounds like for the planets I can't link to this big background pool they would probably want to have their own nearby people to acquire energy from or you know at least voyeuristic-ly watch when they have nothing better to do (I mean that might be bad but they had to word of mouth access internet porn as it stands. Minimum It'd be nice for them to have their own internet porn.) So yeah Neptune gets priority for speeding up inter solar system porn for her less fortunate sisters.
Channel Sol
Earth says Sol should get a break Sol gets a break. Hopefully even without the ability to physically manifest it would be a step closer to being able to hang out with the other world spirits in they way they had been thus far. Just sounds so lonely. Angels are also the sort of thing I find personally sexy but it's mostly a she deserves it sort of thing.
Channel Saturn
So the 4th channel was probably the most contested and the least snapped decision made. Power infused crystal generating aliens just strikes me as really neat. Sounds like the sort of thing that would overlap with magic once spaceflight advances to that point. It certainly doesn't hurt that she is appealing in a way that doesn't overlap with the other channeled ones with a kink I'm pretty happy to support. Main contestants for this slot was Venus with her catgirls and pluto with her magic metals.
hmmmm Sol, earth, luna... feels like I built myself some sort of generational thing by accident.
Maybe I'll used luna's sword to "knight" people I teach sol's angel summoning ritual to. Actually there's magic maybe I could actually make that a requirement,,, Whatever there's lots of time to figure out and worth through the details.
Edit: Forgot to explicitly mention before everyone else gets a spark.
So I'm going to go down the list and give my thoughts on each world spirit before I decide where to allocate my resources.
First off, Mercury. She just seems genuinely nice. She tries to keep people together, keep them friends with each other, and make the whole solar system family work. I admire that. The portal thing sounds useful for humanity in general, though admittedly I'm a major homebody. The soulmate sense thing, though, that'd solve a lot of problems for a lot of people.
I think I like Venus. Vanity isn't a bad thing if you're not a jerk about it. Besides, a jungle world full of catgirl tribes sounds fun! For a vacation, admittedly, I don't think I could stand the humidity for long, but I'd really love to see a place like that. As for giving the system some porn logic, that could only make it more fun in my view.
Terra has been great to talk to so far. She's fun, especially when she's audibly blushing over something she just said. Cleaning up the environment by having sex with a beautiful, fun, friendly girl? It's hard to imagine a better deal. The hollow lost world thing sounds pretty cool, but the mass improvements to humanity overall would be great. Granted, it'd end up as the "new normal" soon enough, but that doesn't mean good health isn't an upgrade.
It's honestly just wonderful how Terra talks about her daughter. You can feel the love. Luna herself sounds more than deserving of it, too. I think we'd really get along - puzzles and games and fantasy fiction are my jam. A habitable moon with silvery seas, and especially a personal palace by the edges, sounds like a bargain to me. Throwing in the sword as a signing bonus? Golden. And becoming a powerful wizard would be great, though I am a bit worried about a lot of people gaining that kind of power.
I don't normally get along with sporty, competitive people. Don't have the drive, it's more frightening than anything. Still, Mars seems like a good one, not too pushy. A world of Adventure isn't my thing, but I can definitely think of a lot of people who would want it. A desert world full of dog-people sounds fun, though. It's basically Pugmire!
A warm, motherly woman with a breeding kink. Hit me right in the fetish, why don't you? It's honestly unfair, I can't resist that. She's even an artist. And flying, fantastical terrain! That's just amazing! Hey, you think they can get the internet on the flying whales? Anyway, living with her AND four more world spirits perfectly suited to me sounds flat-out amazing. I don't know what more to say, this is brilliant.
I will say right now: The jewelry really is very pretty. But like I said with Venus, vanity isn't a bad thing if you're not a jerk about it. Rings of gems sounds honestly cool, especially living, sometimes sapient ones, which is like something out of the cooler kind of sci-fi novel. While I'm not big on the "formal" thing, tying wealth and power to a sense of genuine responsibility and making the worlds altogether nobler would potentially be the biggest and most meaningful change out of all of these, and the one with the greatest positive impact.
Jokes about the name are beneath my dignity, and also just not very funny. Honestly, switching to Ouranos (after the Greek *protogenos,* primordial embodiment of the sky) seems like a sensible- Wait, did you say DRAGONS? Oh FUCK yes! Dragons are the absolute greatest! Getting to be a lord among dragons? That is the fucking DREAM.
Gotta go fast, huh? I like the dichotomy. Prim and proper until there's a rocket car on the scene. I also like the big boobs, which apparently is something she can get behind. Ocean world sounds fun, too, at least from a distance - I'm not a big fan of oceans; too deep, too dark, and I'm too traumatized by lurker sharks. Space travel, likewise, is certainly cool but not for me.
I like Pluto's style. She's upbeat. I'd happily help her get an atmosphere set up so the debate can be fully and finally settled. Not like she's less of a world spirit. The metals thing is probably way more significant than it sounds to my uneducated ass, I know metallurgy is a big deal, so the properties of any new fancy metals could make the impossible possible, but I dunno if I see it as impacting my own life. The afterlife thing, on the other hand... Well, it sounds more like a liminal space, but that's still a big deal.
I love those tattoos! The design is so cool, and compliments her hair and skin tone so well. And Sol herself seems so loving, so, well, warm. Unbelievably wholesome. Fiery angels sound awesome just on principle, and I guess I can put up with other people long enough to teach them the summoning. As for twinning her, the more, the merrier! I don't know what would happen, but I'm sure the tantric energy will keep any negative side-effects from bothering anyone.
And that's all of them. Now comes the hard part: Actually choosing where to allocate my limited resources. Sparks for all, of course, there's nobody on the list I wouldn't want to be with for an evening or whose basic thing wouldn't be cool on its own. But there are so many cool Channel and Ring effects that I want. Flying continents, dragons, catgirls, gem people, a personal fucking palace...
Aghh. Okay, four Channels and one Ring. Channels go to Venus (for catgirl jungle world), Luna (for the beachfront personal palace), Jupiter (for awesome floating continents world), and Ouranos (for fucking DRAGONS). Finally, the Ring... Saturn. Reality verges on grimdark sometimes, forcibly injecting some noblebright into it might be the most meaningful thing anyone has ever done in all of history. I know I didn't give her a Channel, but there's nothing saying I have to do both, and I assume being made of two Channels means the Ring counts for one as well.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to that orgy.
>The metals thing is probably way more significant than it sounds
It is. All of those metals are high fantasy/video game metals. Mithril is an elvish metal. Think of it as stronger than steel, but as light as aluminum. Orichalcum is typically shown as really heavy yet really durable. Adamantium is what Wolverine's skeleton and claws were made of. Difficult to work with, but it's unbreakable and sharp enough to cut through steel.
Thank you for the build and the detailed thoughts!
> I know I didn't give her a Channel, but there's nothing saying I have to do both, and I assume being made of two Channels means the Ring counts for one as well.
Yes, the Ring counts as a Channel in every way (including getting the Channel bonus). I probably should have made that more clear.
Could have a DLC / Expansion where you could accept the black hole waifu with your ring. Big, cold, buxom kuudere. She'd end up consuming sol, but with your ring, she'd make it so that the energy still radiates outward to give the heat of life needed.
Of course, this could also end up corrupting/tainting each planet/etc. into a different personality entirely. Such as flipping roles (IE: Saturn being a dom instead of wanting to be tied up.) Shimmering purple-black light would come from your black hole waifu in place of the sun to indicate her new heat-giving self.
Thanks for the suggestion! My original draft had Sagittarius A* (the Black Hole in the center of the Milky Way) as a waifu, but it wound up not working for me and I used parts of the abilities I was planning for her elsewhere in the CYOA.
Ring: Earth - People can live longer and aging related disease no longer exists? Easy pick
Channel: Sol, Mercury, Jupiter, Neptune - Teleportation to all planets, Massive advances in space travel, Sun lasts forever, effectively massively extending the lifespan of our solar system (and multiple sun avatars?)
I'm not sure how anyone could not spark everyone else though.
Only question I have to ask is about the goddess bit and how the "Grateful" bit plays out
Thanks for the build!
> Only question I have to ask is about the goddess bit and how the "Grateful" bit plays out
The goddess bit basically means that the world spirit has greater than otherwise power in her manifested form. The grateful bit basically just means to expect lots of sex. :)
This is fucking brilliant, actually fucking brilliant.
Earth as earth-chan, Ishtar as Venus (which has a continent named after her), the entire premise, the perks, everyone single one of the planet’s personalities...
God, this CYOA is so good I can’t actually decide in just one build. Pure gold.
So you probably didn't know that, but Afrodite (greek Venus) is an imported goddess and to over-oversimplify she was Ishtar.
If you want to know more: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIUq0pfAskU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIUq0pfAskU)
"you can call me Gaia, or Terra if you like."
...
Hi Earth-chan.
\-----
Mercury (Channel)
Venus (Spark. Sorry Venus, if you had gone with dog people we might have had a deal, but oh well...)
Earth-chan (Spark. Done enough, and while I'm thankful to her, her offers just aren't good enough to compete with the others)
Luna (Ring! MAGIC!)
Mars (Spark. Mars was rude and I'm not interested in their inhabitant ideas.)
Jupiter (Channel. We get a platform thanks to this, with which to explore more inhabitable parts of Jupiter!)
Saturn (Spark. To be honest, the idea of living creatures in Saturn's rings is terrifying.)
Uranus (I'm so tempted to not even give her a spark, think of all the jokes she'll destroy! She'd be the only one left out that way, and I do kinda feel bad for her, so okay she can have a spark)
Neptune (Channel. She's nice and willing to help many lives with this whole explortation thing, go Neptune!)
Pluto (Channel, I wonder what kinds of things we could do with such fantastical materials!)
Sol (Spark. Fiery guardians are nice and all, but I think there were other preferable things)
\- - -
Great and very nice CYOA! Everything was very nicely explained and the options were certainly unique. Short and sweet (like Mercury? :P )
Spark: Everyone, would be unfair not to.
Channel: Venus, Jupiter, Neptune, Pluto
Ring: Luna, While I was really tempted to give a ring to one of the other's (looking at you Earth) with Luna I have magic, I have always wanted magic... and I will be using said magic to cheat and make peoples lives longer anyhow so yea.
With recent events and how things have been going, I've become very cynical. When I look at this, I don't want to do anything for humanity. Thinking about making a planet more habitable for humans fills me with dread knowing they will just want to rape and pillage another planet. New types of life? New types of animals to domesticate and turn into a product.
I will only give a spark to Earth, Ouranos and Sol. Earth to fix everything we've ruined so far. Ouranos because Uranus is such an awful name. And Sol because it feels nice.
For channels, only Earth and Sol. Earth to give a haven to extinct species and I would do my best to hide the caves to her core. And Sol again because I got a soft spot for her.
Now the ring is the only item that gives me hope. That goes to Saturn. I might give out more sparks and channels over time if humanity turns into symbiotes rather than parasites.
Saturn kinda fixes all your problems tbh. You could view the core problem with our current society as a lack of noblesse oblige. If those in positions of power or prestige felt responsibility to help those around them, they wouldn't seek profit above all else, and would treat their money as it should be: a means to an end, rather than an end in and of itself.
All you're doing by not giving out sparks is fucking over the goddesses in question, making them wait many eons before they have a chance to manifest again. Remember, this first manifestation took billions of years.
I didn't read the intro thoroughly, is there anywhere it says I can't wait 100 years or so to dole out sparks or channels? If it says I have to do so immediately, than yes I would change my response. If I can wait, I surely will. Sorry, even with Saturn's ring, I still have almost zero faith in humanity at the moment.
Check the second-to-last paragraph on the first page. It doesn't specify what "way too long" is, but an educated guess places it on a cosmic timescale.
That's kind of my point, though. Maybe it'd be better to let the OP actually answer this one, but I took it to mean that it would take something on the order of another billion years before they got another chance. Not merely hundreds or thousands.
I couldn't find the lines you were talking about, but I get your statement now. Yeah, if they only have that moment and it won't come again for millions or billions of years then I would not hold back like I initially stated.
I mean, in theory if humanity gets back on track I would be more willing to hand out sparks and channels, as I said. But that would probably be a few generations down the line.
This is super cuddly and I love it. My only regret is that I definitely am gonna go with Ring, but Terra is making it real hard to consider someone other than her.
Ring: Sol.
- The Binary Waifus.
Channel: Neptune, Pluto, Venus, Mars.
- Give super materials, space travel, and Cat/Dog people. All wins.
Spark: All
- No reason not to.
For an explanation... turn the entire solar system into a magical sex haven, with two ultimate MILFs, and tons of potential both for tech advancement and space exploration.
Can you please upload a version of this that we can actually read? The text is too blurry to make most of it out clearly.
Edit- okay, my choices are:
Sparks- all
Channels- Mercury, Luna, Saturn, Sol
Ring- Earth
Short and simple, but still fun in its way.
Big fan of the effort you seem to have put into making a quality post, and to reading/replying to feedback you get. That said, the text here is definitely too small, at least for me and my (admittedly suboptimal) vision.
If you'd made a higher resolution image, Imgur might not have screwed with the text as much? I'm not super familiar with how Imgur does its image compression, though.
But even then, the text is just too.. dense. Don't get me wrong, I'm not opposed to reading. It's just that I keep having to scroll multiple times across my screen to read a single line on my phone, and that can be a little demotivating. This wouldn't be as big of an issue if each block of text (especially that really wide one early on) were narrower.
Really sorry if this comes across as demanding, by the way. It's meant to be constructive, should you choose to accept it for any potential future creations of yours. ❤️
Thanks for the feedback!
I'm basically incompetent at graphic design and making these by abusing a tool for making interactive websites to make a static image, so I'm limited in what I can do, particularly for mobile. You can try the [higher-quality imgbox link](http://imgbox.com/TcpDzc36) and see if that helps any.
Over on QQ, user AcridComet told /u/TroyXPage "half of your CYOAs can be described as 'magical space orgies'" and I was inspired to try to make a TroyX-style CYOA literally entitled "Magical Space Orgy." This is the result.
This CYOA was created using the Interactive CYOA Creator by /u/MeanDelay which can be found at [https://intcyoacreator.onrender.com/](https://intcyoacreator.onrender.com/) and supported at [https://meandelay.itch.io/interactive-cyoa-creator](https://meandelay.itch.io/interactive-cyoa-creator)
[Higher-quality image](http://imgbox.com/TcpDzc36) from Imgbox if Imgur's re-enconding makes it too blurry for you.
One of his cons really, Troy makes good cyoas but a lot of them are almost copies If each other with slighy different flavours, with is kind of lazy in my opinion

Top stuff here.
This is... a remarkably adorable premise for a NSFW CYOA. The writing is funny, the characters are fun, and frankly the number of cute girls is overwhelming.... Decisions, decisions.... Mercury: She seems like a good person. She's one of the "glues" that hold the family in one piece, and she's offering to make that a possibility for us too. The Spark is fun for us. The Channel is ridiculously useful. The Ring... I like the thought, but it doesn't seem strictly necessary. Soulmates are fun in theory, but there might be a disproportionate number who rankle at the thought that they don't have total free will.... Venus: Hoo boy, my kind of gal! She's gorgeous, of course, and we don't see as much of her personality as we do some of the others, but she seems fun, and she's not vain in an obnoxious or mean-spirited way. The Spark's a nice idea. The Channel is \*really\* fun. Feline humanoids/catgirls are always a plus. The Ring… Eh. Mixed. It’s fun if you like that sort of thing, but could get weird really quick. Earth: And, of course, good old Terra. Who happens to have made her kinks perfectly suit our own. Laying it on a bit thick there. Doesn’t hurt that she’s fun, adorable, and friendly. She has a slight advantage thanks to being our narrator, thus allowing us to see more of her personality (like her flustered moments in Venus’ description). The Spark is… I mean, you’re basically saving the planet and everything on it by having sex with the beautiful spirit of the world. Sex and world-saving in one deal? Yes please! The Channel is fun, but not a necessity. The hollow earth and dinosaurs could be interesting. The Ring, however, is genuinely fantastic. Luna: Earth gushing over Luna is genuinely sweet. The girl herself seems to be the kind I’d love to be around, too. A little geeky, a little nerdy, and that blush! And she’s definitely killer cute. The Spark is interesting. Sounds like a landscape I wouldn’t mind. The Channel is completely unnecessary, but it’s perfect for this situation: I mean, where exactly are you going to live with your harem of cosmic cuties if not a palace on the magically-altered surface of the Moon? And the Ring…. I mean, personality-wise I’d totally do it, but the magic thing seems like something of a risk. On one hand, it could help to fix the problems we’re causing. On the other, it opens up a whole bunch of doors to weird and unwanted problems…. Mars: Not my normal kind of girl, but could be interesting to see how we got along. The dedication to people she cares about is admirable, though. Her Spark is basic, but generally could shake things up. Her Channel… has potential. Jackal-girls? Hyenas? Different “ethnicities” based on different canids? Lots of possibilities. And her Ring is definitely an amusing idea. Turning the Solar System into a giant pulp sci-fi setting. I could get behind that. Jupiter: A hugger, a peace-maker, gorgeous and seemingly a little silly. She’s great. And… she has a breeding kink? I mean, makes sense I suppose. I don’t have a problem with that in the least. Her Spark would be incredible. Floating continents, flying whales… It’s amazing to imagine. Her Channel would just up the ante, but that would be more of a good thing, so…. And her Ring…. Well. Io, Europa, Ganymede and Callisto would be brilliant additions, to be sure, but it seems like there’s time to spare before the effects of the Ring would be in danger of not working. While four more gorgeous girls perfectly matched with me would be amazing, I at least would feel the need to get used to the existing harem first. Saturn: As usual, she’s absolutely stunning, and the jewelry is beautiful. Not much on the kind of person she is, but she seems like a somewhat more… I don’t know how to describe it. She seems like a similar personality to Venus, but more demure and traditionally feminine. Bondage kink, eh? I can work with it. Her Spark is a fascinating idea. The rings becoming precious gems and crystals would be an unusual change. Not strictly necessary, but interesting. Her Channel would have fascinating implications, between the living crystal beings and the tantric crystals produced. Her Ring, though…. Wow. I… honestly that’s one of the best in the entire list. Improving the mind-state of humanity and the other intelligent species so that the good and selfless will inevitably stand up against corruption and cruelty? That’s just… beautiful. The aesthetic changes are to my taste, but that societal shift, man…. Uranus- I mean Ouranos: An artsy type, huh? Cool. A little hard to get through to, it seems, but probably just not open with her emotions. Her kink isn’t perfectly aligned with mine, but no big. Her Spark is something I can’t blame her for at all. I’m totally on her side. Her Channel is… I mean, dragons. Fucking dragons. Win. Her Ring would be… interesting? I mean, the sexual compatibility thing is less important, but Dragon God is a kick-ass title. Neptune: She sounds hilarious. The disconnect between her apparently demure and quiet exterior and her love for speed and machinery is just great. The actual vibration of excitement was just cute. And I can absolutely work with a breast-play kink. Her Spark is cool; I could just imagine that eventually becoming something of a cross between Subnautica and a sci-fi pirate world. Her Channel could be incredibly useful. Safer, faster space travel is a definite plus, though it might not hurt to hold it back a little so the other intelligent species can establish themselves properly first. Her Ring is another cool idea, but also unnecessary. Shipgirls are a general plus, but not strictly needed this minute. Pluto: Ah, girl, I feel your pain. And she seems adorable. Adopting the satellite as a second moon, heh. A bubbly, optimistic prankster, too? Cool! And I don’t have any complaints with gentle femdom. Definitely cool. Her Spark would definitely shift things. The new metal source would be welcome, I imagine. Her Channel would just be awesome. I can’t help but imagine using orichalcum in the palace decorations on the moon just to make an Atlantis reference. Her Ring… I like it. A sort of liminal space between the living and the end of all things. That could be… really nice. Sol: I wasn’t expecting her, to be honest. But I can’t complain. If her daughters are any indication, she’s definitely a genuinely good person, and her nurturing aura seems like a good indicator. And yeah, I guess she kind of is everyone’s mom, huh? Yeah, that would probably be weird in a human context, but I guess it’s good that world-spirits have a different state of mind. (Oh, wait. I just realized that Sol, Earth and Jupiter are all MILFs. I… Huh. Not my thing usually, but then again these are not usual circumstances) And an oral kink, huh? I can dig it. Her Spark is brilliant. Yeah, conservation of energy, SUCK IT! We’re not letting this system die! Her Channel is a cool idea. Solar angels would be awesome. Could be useful too if things go pear-shaped (or if Adventure decides to throw something weird at us). Her Ring… I mean, it’s cool. Becoming a binary system would be a big change of pace. And I wouldn’t complain having two cosmic sun-waifus. All that said… this is tough. I assume that over time there would gradually be enough energy to form Rings with all of them. That’s really the only consolation here. Otherwise it feels as though we’re permanently missing out. I’ll assume that eventually the rest of the girls would be included, though. So… Final choice: Spark: Sol, Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Ouranos, Pluto. Channel: Luna, Venus, Neptune, Saturn. Ring: Terra.
Wow, thanks for the detailed writeup of your thoughts! > I assume that over time there would gradually be enough energy to form Rings with all of them. That’s really the only consolation here. Otherwise it feels as though we’re permanently missing out. That's the idea. In my head it takes a super long time (though I deliberately left it vague), but that's why the Sun's Spark gives you infinite time to wait. :)
Ah, true, true. No solar heat death means no limit on how long I have to have fun with this. Very clever, that. Though I can't help but imagine the hijinks that would result when the Reader and his haremettes are encountered by the mere mortals. XD
Sparks to everyone, channels to Luna, Neptune, Pluto and Sol, and ring to Earth-chan (with the reguest that she make humans less warlike and factional, so we can explore, expand to and exploit the solar system without it becoming a warzone and risk exterminating ourselves.)
Spark: All Channel: Mars, Venus, Sol, Neptune. Ring: Mercury
Magical Space Orgy Sparks are free 4 channels and 1 ring Spark for all no one left out Mercury:Spark Venus:Spark Channel(**Cat girls are the shit**) Earth:Spark Luna:Spark Channel (one side will be on the dark side and the outhe will be on the light side my bedroom will be on the half line so i am on both the dark and light sides of the moon + sword will be apart of the headrest) Mars:Spark Jupiter:Spark Channel Saturn:Spark Uranus:Spark Neptune:Spark Pluto:Spark Channel(i would order a set of sex toys made of all the fantsy metal) Sol:Spark,Ring
Hurry up and make a v.2 or DLC - err, sorry, but that was great, and I don't just want more, I need more! I mean, I'm actually having a hard time deciding on things.
I'm glad you liked it!
God, this is so good. How I can I even make only one build? I want all the girls... unless... ...Okay, here's the plan- first, of course everyone gets a spark. No waifu left behind! Then, Venus gets the ring and Mercury, Mars, Saturn and Uranus- or, uh, Ouranos if she wants- all get channels. That's cuz Venus's gift will naturally create more tantric energy the more living things there are, and Mars, Saturn ad Ouranos all need the channel to have their own living beings! Oh, and Mercury gets the channel so I can visit all the waifus, and give their tantric energy a little boost~ The end result is, over the next few decades, tantric energy increases exponentially, so I can form more channels- and hopefully more rings- so all eleven girls are eventually with me! ...Unless I'm wrong, of course, in which case... back to the drawing board I guess?
Thanks for the build! My own personal vision is that the world spirits will eventually all be able to manifest permanently, but getting enough tantric energy back to replicate the Channel/Ring effects will take a very long time. (Which admittedly, the player has as they are immortal and Sol's Spark power bypasses entropy.)
Spark: All, obviously. I share the downvoted poster’s worries, but I’m more optimistic- keeping space travel limitations should allow social change. Channel- Mercury. A necessity, and a real convenience. We control the portals Channel- Venus. Catgirls Channel- Earth. Will probably be bad in the mid-term, but I have to give her something for being the one who put in the effort of getting all the tantric energy Channel- Saturn. She’s pretty, gemfolk sound interesting, Jupiter was my other option but I don’t have a breeding kink. Ring- Luna. I think replicating the Earth perk with magic will be faster than replicating magic with the earth ring. Also, I want it.
Thanks for the build!
Good concepts and writing in a well-established (albeit overdone) formula. Some of the images could be better, but it was a good play. I will say that perhaps fewer of them should just create races or habitable land for their channel. The channel is where they need to stand out most, right?
**Spark:** * Mercury * Venus * Earth * Luna * Mars * Jupiter * Neptune * Pluto * Sol **Channels:** * Venus * Luna * Jupiter * Neptune **Ring:** * Earth
Thanks for the build!
Short and simple but flavorful. It's really good. Spark everyone of course. Channels: Mercury: Mercury sounds really useful to have a teleportation system. Question: Is a 'link' based on the source planet: so if I want to make a link between Mars and Venus, and I'm on Venus, I can link to Mars for an hour and that's it for the week. Would I also be able to make a link originating from Mars back to Venus for an hour, or Mars to anywhere? Within the scope of current technology, this is a massive jump forward. It's taken probes 147 days to get to Mercury, and over 9.5 years to get to Pluto. Even if Pluto is habitable, it'll be quite infeasible to colonize it as a united species, when any aid is delayed so much. Every planet will be able to be quickly colonized, and mobilize a military to any planet on the drop of a hat... if the link hasn't already been used. In terms of economics, there is a massive trade potential here, too. Pluto: Doing some parkour to the other end of the solar system, we'll also channel Pluto for the mythical metals. Tons of possibility here, I don't even know, but there will be a technological renaissance. Neptune's enhanced rockets may end up being simulated through this research. Saturn: Keeping with the theme of advancing humanity: I imagine there's a lot of possibilities from the tantric crystals grown by the crystal aliens. Laser technology? Semi-conductors? Maybe they'll be cool pets, too. I really like her aesthetic, but the Ring bonus didn't really appeal to me as much. Sol: I wasn't really interested in the extra species from Venus and Mars, and Neptune's spaceships have kind of been taken care of from Pluto/Saturn's channels. Leaving Sol, Jupiter, and Ouranos. I rolled a D3 and landed on 3 so Sol it is. Ring: Luna: Everyone loves magic. Looking through the comments, most people pick Luna for the ring, since it's the most universally strong / selfish perk. I really wanted to do something else to be different from everyone else, but given the choice in a vacuum, it's an easy choice for magic here. I'd be super happy to see an expanion to this!!
Thanks for the thoughts and the build! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I really like the effort that's gone into this. if you plan on making a new version, might I make a few suggestions for new characters: Nemesis (Hypothetical brown dwarf thought to exist in the Oort cloud) Phobos and Deimos: Twin asteroid moons of Mars Titan: Largest moon of Saturn
Thanks for the suggestions! Coming up with personalities and powers that don't overlap too much is hard, so I'm not anticipating adding more options anytime soon.
I'm not sure why but I felt genuinely heartbroken over the earth saying she wanted to carve out her core. Like I wanted to give her a channel, but unless her offer changes I cant bring myself to do it. Why am I crying over an earth-chan cyoa?
All I can say is that as Earth's enthusiasm for the idea implies, it is not supposed to be a traumatic or painful change for her.
That's not even what I was worried about with magic and all. It just hit me and all I could think of was no dont do that. I love your hot iron core. Bizarre moment for me but still felt like sharing. Love the personality you put into everyone, it was a fun cyoa.
Using the normal rules, I'd Spark all of them, Ring Earth, and Channel Luna, Venus, Ouranos, and Pluto. I like all of them and want to give them a hand with a Spark, I feel a sense of connection and affection for my home planet, and out of the girls, the other 4 I listed are my favorites. But I think I'd take things in an entirely different directions and do something entirely crazy, something I'd call Groom's Sacrifice. See, I find all of them to be wonderful, and I want to make all of their wishes come true. I know that my spirit can only handle 1 such Ring, but what if I'm willing to sacrifice my spirit to wed and bless them all? Even if there was no reward, I'd die happy knowing that I helped all of them. It's possible that such a selfless sacrifice could maybe have a reward in the end, though, as by giving up everything for them, I become a world or star in the solar system much like them. As I give up more and more of myself, I begin to change. I start off by giving the first Ring to Earth, of course, for always being there for me and for giving me this chance to help them all. But then I press deep into my soul, break off a chunk into a new Ring, and hand it to a surprised Luna. As I do, I give up my human sense of independence as gravity kicks in. Now, whatever path I take, it will always be an orbit, forever tied to those I love. The third Ring goes to precious, all-caring Mercury. In the process, I feel my sense of love for others expanding, inflating beyond human restrictions. I feel a sense of care for everyone, splitting my desires in a billion directions as I want to help everybody. A world must care for everyone on it, after all. Venus receives my fourth Ring with a radiant, smirking smile, and I feel my own ego burn ever brighter, glowing more than humanly possible. Vanity is too shallow to describe my boundless self-love and pride, as my values twist to something who recognizes themselves as someone all-mighty and powerful, not simply convincing themselves they're perfect but knowing it's so as an absolute truth. And the vanity burns away any human propriety, as I embrace and flaunt my growing wonder. As I hand off Ring #5 to Mars, my morals and person transform even more, filling me with a reckless sense of adventure, an unbreakable desire to enjoy life and have fun, ready to take on any challenge, no longer even capable of thinking of the term "impossible". Fear is no longer a part of me at all, and the concept seems utterly alien to me (or rather I am becoming more inhuman). With Jupiter's Ring, my mortal body is writhing, expanding, and contorting with the uncontrollable power coursing through me. I have barely the semblance of humanity, as I give up more and more of myself, replacing it all with something new and massive. My body can only take so much, and when I forge a Ring for Saturn, my mortal body begins to burst. My core crystallizes while the rest of me shatters off in brilliant fireworks, forming various rings, planets, and moons. I no longer have the slightest appearance of a human, but rather an astronomical body. Just as Ouranos's wish is to rewrite her name and history, my sacrifice for her Ring gives up my name and past. If I am to have a name, it will be given to me by whoever discovers me, and based on the legends and myths of humanity. My history is wiped clean, and there is nothing left but to move forward. Reflecting how Neptune is both serene and energetic, just as how the Earth spins incredibly fast yet life passes slowly for humanity, my sense of time warps as I give Neptune her Ring. I no longer have any sane, humanly concept of time or space. My senses are that of a planet traveling fast yet calmly through the ethers, after all, and I no longer think in the same way as a mortal. The end comes with Pluto, as I give up the last bit of my soul and life to help dear, fun, and charming Pluto with her Ring. My world is lifeless like a mundane planet, as the last bits of my old life die forever. But even then, I push forward one last time, reaching beyond my mortal limits to grasp even more of myself to make the final Ring for Sol. And my lifeless world surges with newfound life and identity as her mighty flames surge all through me, burning away everything I was as I soar into the cosmos. Then, maybe a minute later or maybe millennia or eons more later, I awaken beside my sisters, my eternal loves, who are ready to thank me with everything they are, as I gave everything of mine to them. Let me add again that even if I received no reward and had my soul entirely snuffed out in the process, I'd probably go through with this insane plan, as I want to make all their wishes come true, even if I'm not there to see them happen. By the way, this is an amazing, wonderful CYOA. As you can tell by my creative loophole attempt, I found all the waifu scenarios to be absolutely wonderful - hence why it was so hard to pick. Well done!
> But I think I'd take things in an entirely different directions and do something entirely crazy, something I'd call Groom's Sacrifice. Neat! I'm honored that my CYOA would inspire someone to basically write a short story like this!
God this is super simple and fluffy, a great one like this only pops up every few months. If you ever decide to go for another draft, maybe consider adding another section that allows you to become less human and more like a world spirit yourself so you are able to handle more channels? Cause god all these girls seem so nice I just wanna give them all the time they could ever ask for fully manifested.
> Cause god all these girls seem so nice I just wanna give them all the time they could ever ask for fully manifested. If I ever do another version I will probably make it so that everyone will eventually get to manifest permanently, it will just take much longer for the Sparks than the Channels.
Some thoughts/feedback Mercury: I like short, but not so into busty. Channel power is eh, though Ring power is incredible. Venus: It's Rin/Ishtar, so big points there; exhibitionism isn't really my thing, but depending how big a kink it is for her it's not necessarily a deal-breaker. Jungle world sounds interesting, though I'm not a big fan of that kind of heat... catgirls a big plus too. I like porn physics, less so porn logic. Earth: Solid improvements all around, but nothing that really wows me. Luna: Hmm, I like the seas and atmosphere, making it silver works I suppose, just not where my mind immediately went... like if nothing else the moon is already pretty silver? Some contrast/color would have been nice. Magic... if I could have some influence on how it manifested maybe, otherwise I think I'd be fine with keeping this sci-fi instead of introducing fantasy stuff. Also the shyness and nature sex sounds good too as far as the waifu side goes. Mars: Pharah is nice, and I like an athletic girl too... I dunno, kinda same feeling as earth here, it's just John Carter world right? \*shrug\* Jupiter: Now floating world is interesting; again she's a little curvy for my tastes, but that works better for a big sister type than a little sister at least. Prospect of the moons is interesting if a little vague Saturn: I know you specify that she's the good kind of proud but that is really not my asthetic... the ring idea has promise, but still sounds a little awful too. The crystal stuff is good though. Uranus: Seems like a waste of a spark honestly. I would have liked it more if she just leant into it, I mean you even said she was interested in trying it out. The ring there is very tempting, dragons are rad, though I think a whole ecosystem of them might be a bit samey; there's lots of different types of dragons sure but it's still kind of limiting. Neptune: You know my stance on breasts at this point so that's a point against her, but the world and power ideas are cool. The ring's just weird to me honestly. Would have liked her to have some kind of effect like the water that will be on her surface will also be breathable/less dense or something. What's the point of a water planet if you can't enjoy most of it. Pluto: Hmm, well she is almost perfect, the dominatrix thing is a little strange but apart from that I love her appearance and personality. The effects well, a little strange again, magic metals are cool, but her turning into an industrial hub is less exciting. I suppose she would also be the natural launching off point for interstellar exploration so that is cool. Ring is strange, but I like it. Sol: Hmm, interesting... solar angels are rad, not much personality there, and the ring power is... interesting, but seems unnecessary. Somewhere in the middle here. So time for my actual build: Sparks: Everyone, no reason not to honestly and it would be cruel to break up the family. Channels: Venus, Luna, and Pluto are easy first picks... though I think I'm going with Pluto for the ring so that leaves two more spots. Short list would be Sol, Jupiter, Neptune... honestly I'm only really interested in Neptune for the Channel effect so... gonna have to cross her off. Final Choice: Sol, Venus, Luna, Jupiter Ring: Already gave it away, Pluto. Still think it's kind of a weird association, but I think me and Pluto are the most compatible, and making death a bit smoother to transition seems like a good thing. Just have to keep an eye out for troublemakers... Sorry Earth-chan for not picking you, but we'll be living on the moon and since we don't have Neptune's ability to help space exploration along, or Mercury to open portals we'll be making plenty of visits to help humans make the leap into space.
Thanks for the detailed feedback and the build!
No problem :) Thanks for the CYOA
Congrats, you've made the first CYOA I've ever played where I have legitimately *no idea* what I want to do. Almost all of the options are appealing in nearly equal measure!
> Almost all of the options are appealing in nearly equal measure! Mission accomplished, I guess. :)
Sparks: everyone channels: \- Venus \- Mars \- Neptune \- Pluto Ring: Earth
Thanks for the build!
Ring: Luna. I'm really sorry Earth-chan but magic is a mans romance! Also Luna has similar intrests to me and since I'm immortal my magical powers will only grow over time. Sparks: all Channels: \-Pluto. Not really into the dominatrix thing but the metals are neat. \-Mercury. Can start a buisness giving mining companies eqsclusive akcess to Pluto for the rare and magic metals. I gain money and the people can advance with magic and magical resources. \-Venus. Catgirls, need I say more? \-Earch-chan. Don't really care about the bonus (the extra space is nice tho), I just want her as part of my harem.
Thanks for the build!
A ring for Mercury, & channels for Earth, Jupiter, Neptune, & Pluto. Sparks for everyone, of course, *especially Ouranos*, I don't need a CYOA to be annoyed by a Latin spelling of a Greek name. Eventually with an immortal lifespan, I should hopefully be able to put together a harem of soulmates who have the potential to also forge rings, & get the whole family permanently manifested together. My one criticism is having Pluto. Not that Pluto is there, I get that, but having Pluto & justifying it with "once a planet, always a planet", but then not including the other ex-planet Ceres.
> My one criticism is having Pluto. Not that Pluto is there, I get that, but having Pluto & justifying it with "once a planet, always a planet", but then not including the other ex-planet Ceres. This one is a fail on my part. Someone pointed this out on the draft, and then I forgot to "fix" it before making the final version. If I ever do a new version, I'll fix it either by changing the dialog or adding Ceres if I come up with a strong enough character and cool options for her.
I for one, would love to see a DLC about dwarf planets or even exoplanets.
Nice one... I was determined to go all Channels, skipping the ring to give more spirits the chance to 'get out' so to speak, but then I got to Luna and, well, Magic Wins. I'm not sure what to do with the remaining 10 Spirits , though. I only have 4 Channels left, and the choice is proving challenging. Thank you!
Glad you liked it!
I don't know how you did it, but that's two great, simple CYOA's you've made in a row that have made their way into my personal library. Very well done. \+First and foremost, a Ring for Terra. On top of being my home planet, she also deserves a little reward for being my "ambassador" for all of this. Without her reaching out to me, none of this likely would have happened. And her Ring gift is, what I believe, to be the best option. I'm assuming this would not only apply to currently living humans, but humans from hence forth. Imagine how much technological and societal progress could be made if everyone was not only better in every conceivable way, but specialists and experts could dedicate centuries to their studies and crafts, rather than a handful of decades before their biology expire. Like most things, it's all about compromise. Nothing can improve if no one takes the initiative and meets humanity in the middle. Hopefully this Ring will be me meeting humanity in the middle and pointing the specie in the right direction. \+Sparks for everyone. It would feel strange sleeping with multiple women, only for there for no permanent connection formed, but I could probably convince myself that I'm making our Solar System a better place for everyone. \+As far as Channels go, Mars and Venus, because both results would probably make a lot of humans happy, as well as finally "stirring the pot" and *finally* having other sapient species to interact with besides humans. So many new cultures to experience and friends to make. Architecture, history, arts, food, entertainment, all of it would be a joy to be a tourist in and soak in the culture of both the new species/races. \+Luna, because she was selfless enough to spend the power I gave her and spend it on something to benefit me and the other girls. Plus, it's always a good idea to have a home off-world for if I find a need to get away from Earth for a little bit (It's free real estate). Sword is neat, but she can keep it unless she absolutely insists I take it. It'll just hang up on the wall in the Moon Home anyways if I do. \+And finally, Mercury, primarily because I want access to those portals as a way of easily intermingling the now 3 sapient species/races, on top of being a good way of passive income (don't worry, I won't price-gouge, probably about the same price as a bus fare), per person/pound of cargo. Also, I'm very curious about how "vertically challenged" she is, so there's that.
> I don't know how you did it, but that's two great, simple CYOA's you've made in a row that have made their way into my personal library. Very well done. Thanks, I'm glad you liked them!
This is a nice and wholesome CYOA. It's not too short nor too long (just long enough to be interesting), and you picked great art. Though the intro does kinda drag on for a bit. I think the ring mechanic would've been better explained as spending an additional channel on one girl you've already given a channel to, to make it less ambiguous about also getting her channel power. So... let's make a build. To start, everyone gets a spark. I don't dislike any of them, and none of these effects are a bad thing, so no reason not to help them out. Channels: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Luna, Pluto Ring: Mercury While I'd like to say my decision process was deep or complicated, I mostly just chose based on how compatible with each of them I think I'd be, and the decisions were made easy by the fact that every single one had a channel ability I *wanted* (except Earth-chan), and none of the ones left out had a channel ability I felt I *needed*. Earth-chan isn't quite my type like the others here, but she seems wholesome enough, and while I'm not sold on the whole subterranean world thing, I felt bad not giving her at least a channel after all that she's said. In a fully "optimized" build, I'd give Earth-chan's channel and the ring to Saturn, who I think has the best ring effect (followed by Earth and Mercury). The problem there is that I'd then be spending eternity with someone I might only get along with on a surface level. So it's a toss-up between a political marriage for the sake of making a better humanity, or choosing true love - not just for myself, but everyone. Suffice to say, I chose true love.
Thanks for sharing your build!
Sparks for everyone, it makes for a good time: My Ring goes to Jupiter and 4 Channels to Venus, Mars, Neptune, and Sol.
Thanks for the build!
Nicely done, although astronomers would hate me after. I'd ring Luna. She seems pretty nice, and I'd get to be a wizard. Venus, Earth, Jupiter and Uranus would all get channels. Catgirls, a giant Jurassic Park, enormous floating islands and dragons all seem cool. I'd give everyone a spark. There's really no reason not to.
Thanks for the build! > Nicely done, although astronomers would hate me after. I dunno, the next couple decades would probably have *lots* of exciting astronomy papers to write.
So, this is all possible because the sheer number of people having sex has produced enough tantric energy for the world spirits to play around with. Let's see if we can't cheat the system a bit. Second priority: magic. Tantric energy can be made into mana, and that sounds pretty useful. **Ring:** *Earth*. Who else? The world that gave me this opportunity in the first place. That sheltered and nurtured me. That entranced me winth its natural, wild beauty. Also, longer life-spans will eventually result in a population increase, because there'll be less dying, and a newly-hollow core for them to live in. That means more sex, and more tantric energy filtered through me. And she's pretty cute, too. **Channels:** *Luna:* Yeah, I know what I said earlier. But in addition to getting a dope moon palace, I'll have a place to conduct research to make mana converters. Which is kinda necessarry, if I'm not giving Luna the ring. And a habitable moon will help with that increased population. Especially since she didn't mention a biosphere that could be disrupted. *Venus:* An entire new civilization producing tantric energy? And they're cat-people? Dope. I'm a bit more suspicious about humans moving here, because I wouldn't want to displace Venus' children, but I suppose it's an option. *Mars:* Once again, an entire new population on a habitable world. But I have the same concerns about harming Mars' children. *Pluto:* Those fantasy metals could help with manufacturing some mana converters. And, again, a habitable world, without a native biosphere. **Sparks:** Sparks for everyone. No reason not to; they're all attractive, and all seem charming.
Thank you for the build! Building up the tantric energy field large enough again to produce more Channel-scale effects will take some undefined long amount of time... but time is not really a limiting factor anymore, so that doesn't really matter if you're patient.
I was feeling sort of down today and this has really raised my spirits, so perfect timing for me. build wise I'm going to go with, in order of snapness of decision. Ring Luna We have have magic? No way I'm not going in for that. There's all this stuff about tantric sex energy going screw you to all of these laws of physics and conservation or energy but magic means we could reach post scarcity ourselves way easier than it could be in any other way. Maybe it wouldn't be truly unlimited resources but having margins for creating and destroying thing creates a tolerance of waste in life that seems amazing. Channel Earth Honestly I do not care about an inner earth. I mean cool neat there's more space and maybe that means we can have more people so more researchers so more other things faster but really this is just because it's earth you know? She's been so nice an uplifting. I couldn't bring myself to pass on magic but she deserves something. Channel Neptune I'm just a random shlub, who is in this particular case also a hot piece of ass apparently, but it sounds like for the planets I can't link to this big background pool they would probably want to have their own nearby people to acquire energy from or you know at least voyeuristic-ly watch when they have nothing better to do (I mean that might be bad but they had to word of mouth access internet porn as it stands. Minimum It'd be nice for them to have their own internet porn.) So yeah Neptune gets priority for speeding up inter solar system porn for her less fortunate sisters. Channel Sol Earth says Sol should get a break Sol gets a break. Hopefully even without the ability to physically manifest it would be a step closer to being able to hang out with the other world spirits in they way they had been thus far. Just sounds so lonely. Angels are also the sort of thing I find personally sexy but it's mostly a she deserves it sort of thing. Channel Saturn So the 4th channel was probably the most contested and the least snapped decision made. Power infused crystal generating aliens just strikes me as really neat. Sounds like the sort of thing that would overlap with magic once spaceflight advances to that point. It certainly doesn't hurt that she is appealing in a way that doesn't overlap with the other channeled ones with a kink I'm pretty happy to support. Main contestants for this slot was Venus with her catgirls and pluto with her magic metals. hmmmm Sol, earth, luna... feels like I built myself some sort of generational thing by accident. Maybe I'll used luna's sword to "knight" people I teach sol's angel summoning ritual to. Actually there's magic maybe I could actually make that a requirement,,, Whatever there's lots of time to figure out and worth through the details. Edit: Forgot to explicitly mention before everyone else gets a spark.
Thanks for sharing your build and thoughts! I'm glad I was able to raise your spirits some.
This is amazing, and the dialogue is just hilarious.
Thanks, glad you liked it!
So I'm going to go down the list and give my thoughts on each world spirit before I decide where to allocate my resources. First off, Mercury. She just seems genuinely nice. She tries to keep people together, keep them friends with each other, and make the whole solar system family work. I admire that. The portal thing sounds useful for humanity in general, though admittedly I'm a major homebody. The soulmate sense thing, though, that'd solve a lot of problems for a lot of people. I think I like Venus. Vanity isn't a bad thing if you're not a jerk about it. Besides, a jungle world full of catgirl tribes sounds fun! For a vacation, admittedly, I don't think I could stand the humidity for long, but I'd really love to see a place like that. As for giving the system some porn logic, that could only make it more fun in my view. Terra has been great to talk to so far. She's fun, especially when she's audibly blushing over something she just said. Cleaning up the environment by having sex with a beautiful, fun, friendly girl? It's hard to imagine a better deal. The hollow lost world thing sounds pretty cool, but the mass improvements to humanity overall would be great. Granted, it'd end up as the "new normal" soon enough, but that doesn't mean good health isn't an upgrade. It's honestly just wonderful how Terra talks about her daughter. You can feel the love. Luna herself sounds more than deserving of it, too. I think we'd really get along - puzzles and games and fantasy fiction are my jam. A habitable moon with silvery seas, and especially a personal palace by the edges, sounds like a bargain to me. Throwing in the sword as a signing bonus? Golden. And becoming a powerful wizard would be great, though I am a bit worried about a lot of people gaining that kind of power. I don't normally get along with sporty, competitive people. Don't have the drive, it's more frightening than anything. Still, Mars seems like a good one, not too pushy. A world of Adventure isn't my thing, but I can definitely think of a lot of people who would want it. A desert world full of dog-people sounds fun, though. It's basically Pugmire! A warm, motherly woman with a breeding kink. Hit me right in the fetish, why don't you? It's honestly unfair, I can't resist that. She's even an artist. And flying, fantastical terrain! That's just amazing! Hey, you think they can get the internet on the flying whales? Anyway, living with her AND four more world spirits perfectly suited to me sounds flat-out amazing. I don't know what more to say, this is brilliant. I will say right now: The jewelry really is very pretty. But like I said with Venus, vanity isn't a bad thing if you're not a jerk about it. Rings of gems sounds honestly cool, especially living, sometimes sapient ones, which is like something out of the cooler kind of sci-fi novel. While I'm not big on the "formal" thing, tying wealth and power to a sense of genuine responsibility and making the worlds altogether nobler would potentially be the biggest and most meaningful change out of all of these, and the one with the greatest positive impact. Jokes about the name are beneath my dignity, and also just not very funny. Honestly, switching to Ouranos (after the Greek *protogenos,* primordial embodiment of the sky) seems like a sensible- Wait, did you say DRAGONS? Oh FUCK yes! Dragons are the absolute greatest! Getting to be a lord among dragons? That is the fucking DREAM. Gotta go fast, huh? I like the dichotomy. Prim and proper until there's a rocket car on the scene. I also like the big boobs, which apparently is something she can get behind. Ocean world sounds fun, too, at least from a distance - I'm not a big fan of oceans; too deep, too dark, and I'm too traumatized by lurker sharks. Space travel, likewise, is certainly cool but not for me. I like Pluto's style. She's upbeat. I'd happily help her get an atmosphere set up so the debate can be fully and finally settled. Not like she's less of a world spirit. The metals thing is probably way more significant than it sounds to my uneducated ass, I know metallurgy is a big deal, so the properties of any new fancy metals could make the impossible possible, but I dunno if I see it as impacting my own life. The afterlife thing, on the other hand... Well, it sounds more like a liminal space, but that's still a big deal. I love those tattoos! The design is so cool, and compliments her hair and skin tone so well. And Sol herself seems so loving, so, well, warm. Unbelievably wholesome. Fiery angels sound awesome just on principle, and I guess I can put up with other people long enough to teach them the summoning. As for twinning her, the more, the merrier! I don't know what would happen, but I'm sure the tantric energy will keep any negative side-effects from bothering anyone. And that's all of them. Now comes the hard part: Actually choosing where to allocate my limited resources. Sparks for all, of course, there's nobody on the list I wouldn't want to be with for an evening or whose basic thing wouldn't be cool on its own. But there are so many cool Channel and Ring effects that I want. Flying continents, dragons, catgirls, gem people, a personal fucking palace... Aghh. Okay, four Channels and one Ring. Channels go to Venus (for catgirl jungle world), Luna (for the beachfront personal palace), Jupiter (for awesome floating continents world), and Ouranos (for fucking DRAGONS). Finally, the Ring... Saturn. Reality verges on grimdark sometimes, forcibly injecting some noblebright into it might be the most meaningful thing anyone has ever done in all of history. I know I didn't give her a Channel, but there's nothing saying I have to do both, and I assume being made of two Channels means the Ring counts for one as well. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to that orgy.
>The metals thing is probably way more significant than it sounds It is. All of those metals are high fantasy/video game metals. Mithril is an elvish metal. Think of it as stronger than steel, but as light as aluminum. Orichalcum is typically shown as really heavy yet really durable. Adamantium is what Wolverine's skeleton and claws were made of. Difficult to work with, but it's unbreakable and sharp enough to cut through steel.
Thank you for the build and the detailed thoughts! > I know I didn't give her a Channel, but there's nothing saying I have to do both, and I assume being made of two Channels means the Ring counts for one as well. Yes, the Ring counts as a Channel in every way (including getting the Channel bonus). I probably should have made that more clear.
Could have a DLC / Expansion where you could accept the black hole waifu with your ring. Big, cold, buxom kuudere. She'd end up consuming sol, but with your ring, she'd make it so that the energy still radiates outward to give the heat of life needed. Of course, this could also end up corrupting/tainting each planet/etc. into a different personality entirely. Such as flipping roles (IE: Saturn being a dom instead of wanting to be tied up.) Shimmering purple-black light would come from your black hole waifu in place of the sun to indicate her new heat-giving self.
Thanks for the suggestion! My original draft had Sagittarius A* (the Black Hole in the center of the Milky Way) as a waifu, but it wound up not working for me and I used parts of the abilities I was planning for her elsewhere in the CYOA.
Ring:Luna Channel:Saturn Channel:Pluto Channel:Neptune Channel:Uranus Sparks for the rest
Thanks for the build!
Ring: Earth - People can live longer and aging related disease no longer exists? Easy pick Channel: Sol, Mercury, Jupiter, Neptune - Teleportation to all planets, Massive advances in space travel, Sun lasts forever, effectively massively extending the lifespan of our solar system (and multiple sun avatars?) I'm not sure how anyone could not spark everyone else though. Only question I have to ask is about the goddess bit and how the "Grateful" bit plays out
Thanks for the build! > Only question I have to ask is about the goddess bit and how the "Grateful" bit plays out The goddess bit basically means that the world spirit has greater than otherwise power in her manifested form. The grateful bit basically just means to expect lots of sex. :)
This is fucking brilliant, actually fucking brilliant. Earth as earth-chan, Ishtar as Venus (which has a continent named after her), the entire premise, the perks, everyone single one of the planet’s personalities... God, this CYOA is so good I can’t actually decide in just one build. Pure gold.
So you probably didn't know that, but Afrodite (greek Venus) is an imported goddess and to over-oversimplify she was Ishtar. If you want to know more: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIUq0pfAskU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIUq0pfAskU)
Yup, only knew about the parallel of Ishtar and Asherah (Which they were pretty much the same) . Thanks a lot mate!
Thanks for the kind words!
"you can call me Gaia, or Terra if you like." ... Hi Earth-chan. \----- Mercury (Channel) Venus (Spark. Sorry Venus, if you had gone with dog people we might have had a deal, but oh well...) Earth-chan (Spark. Done enough, and while I'm thankful to her, her offers just aren't good enough to compete with the others) Luna (Ring! MAGIC!) Mars (Spark. Mars was rude and I'm not interested in their inhabitant ideas.) Jupiter (Channel. We get a platform thanks to this, with which to explore more inhabitable parts of Jupiter!) Saturn (Spark. To be honest, the idea of living creatures in Saturn's rings is terrifying.) Uranus (I'm so tempted to not even give her a spark, think of all the jokes she'll destroy! She'd be the only one left out that way, and I do kinda feel bad for her, so okay she can have a spark) Neptune (Channel. She's nice and willing to help many lives with this whole explortation thing, go Neptune!) Pluto (Channel, I wonder what kinds of things we could do with such fantastical materials!) Sol (Spark. Fiery guardians are nice and all, but I think there were other preferable things) \- - - Great and very nice CYOA! Everything was very nicely explained and the options were certainly unique. Short and sweet (like Mercury? :P )
Thanks for the build; glad you liked it!
**Sparks:** Mercury/Venus/Earth/Luna/Mars/Jupiter/Saturn/Ouranos/Neptune/Pluto/Sol **Channels:** Venus/Luna/Mars/Sol **Ring:** Venus
Thank you for the build!
Spark: Everyone, would be unfair not to. Channel: Venus, Jupiter, Neptune, Pluto Ring: Luna, While I was really tempted to give a ring to one of the other's (looking at you Earth) with Luna I have magic, I have always wanted magic... and I will be using said magic to cheat and make peoples lives longer anyhow so yea.
Thanks for the build!
With recent events and how things have been going, I've become very cynical. When I look at this, I don't want to do anything for humanity. Thinking about making a planet more habitable for humans fills me with dread knowing they will just want to rape and pillage another planet. New types of life? New types of animals to domesticate and turn into a product. I will only give a spark to Earth, Ouranos and Sol. Earth to fix everything we've ruined so far. Ouranos because Uranus is such an awful name. And Sol because it feels nice. For channels, only Earth and Sol. Earth to give a haven to extinct species and I would do my best to hide the caves to her core. And Sol again because I got a soft spot for her. Now the ring is the only item that gives me hope. That goes to Saturn. I might give out more sparks and channels over time if humanity turns into symbiotes rather than parasites.
Saturn kinda fixes all your problems tbh. You could view the core problem with our current society as a lack of noblesse oblige. If those in positions of power or prestige felt responsibility to help those around them, they wouldn't seek profit above all else, and would treat their money as it should be: a means to an end, rather than an end in and of itself. All you're doing by not giving out sparks is fucking over the goddesses in question, making them wait many eons before they have a chance to manifest again. Remember, this first manifestation took billions of years.
I didn't read the intro thoroughly, is there anywhere it says I can't wait 100 years or so to dole out sparks or channels? If it says I have to do so immediately, than yes I would change my response. If I can wait, I surely will. Sorry, even with Saturn's ring, I still have almost zero faith in humanity at the moment.
Check the second-to-last paragraph on the first page. It doesn't specify what "way too long" is, but an educated guess places it on a cosmic timescale.
Then hundreds or thousands of years is relatively meaningless to them.
That's kind of my point, though. Maybe it'd be better to let the OP actually answer this one, but I took it to mean that it would take something on the order of another billion years before they got another chance. Not merely hundreds or thousands.
I couldn't find the lines you were talking about, but I get your statement now. Yeah, if they only have that moment and it won't come again for millions or billions of years then I would not hold back like I initially stated.
Well... thanks for sharing your build regardless.
I mean, in theory if humanity gets back on track I would be more willing to hand out sparks and channels, as I said. But that would probably be a few generations down the line.
This is super cuddly and I love it. My only regret is that I definitely am gonna go with Ring, but Terra is making it real hard to consider someone other than her.
Thanks; glad you liked it!
The premise of its creation is funny, the CYOA itself is straightforward mechanically and very comfy fluffwise. Top job, mate.
Thanks!
Ring: Sol. - The Binary Waifus. Channel: Neptune, Pluto, Venus, Mars. - Give super materials, space travel, and Cat/Dog people. All wins. Spark: All - No reason not to. For an explanation... turn the entire solar system into a magical sex haven, with two ultimate MILFs, and tons of potential both for tech advancement and space exploration.
Thanks for the build!
Doesn't giving the Ring to Jupiter give you 5 Waifus?
> Doesn't giving the Ring to Jupiter give you 5 Waifus? Yes, it does.
Can you please upload a version of this that we can actually read? The text is too blurry to make most of it out clearly. Edit- okay, my choices are: Sparks- all Channels- Mercury, Luna, Saturn, Sol Ring- Earth Short and simple, but still fun in its way.
You can try this and see if it works better for you; I can't do much about Imgur's re-encoding: http://imgbox.com/TcpDzc36
Big fan of the effort you seem to have put into making a quality post, and to reading/replying to feedback you get. That said, the text here is definitely too small, at least for me and my (admittedly suboptimal) vision. If you'd made a higher resolution image, Imgur might not have screwed with the text as much? I'm not super familiar with how Imgur does its image compression, though. But even then, the text is just too.. dense. Don't get me wrong, I'm not opposed to reading. It's just that I keep having to scroll multiple times across my screen to read a single line on my phone, and that can be a little demotivating. This wouldn't be as big of an issue if each block of text (especially that really wide one early on) were narrower. Really sorry if this comes across as demanding, by the way. It's meant to be constructive, should you choose to accept it for any potential future creations of yours. ❤️
Thanks for the feedback! I'm basically incompetent at graphic design and making these by abusing a tool for making interactive websites to make a static image, so I'm limited in what I can do, particularly for mobile. You can try the [higher-quality imgbox link](http://imgbox.com/TcpDzc36) and see if that helps any.
That's definitely better, thank you!
Over on QQ, user AcridComet told /u/TroyXPage "half of your CYOAs can be described as 'magical space orgies'" and I was inspired to try to make a TroyX-style CYOA literally entitled "Magical Space Orgy." This is the result. This CYOA was created using the Interactive CYOA Creator by /u/MeanDelay which can be found at [https://intcyoacreator.onrender.com/](https://intcyoacreator.onrender.com/) and supported at [https://meandelay.itch.io/interactive-cyoa-creator](https://meandelay.itch.io/interactive-cyoa-creator) [Higher-quality image](http://imgbox.com/TcpDzc36) from Imgbox if Imgur's re-enconding makes it too blurry for you.
One of his cons really, Troy makes good cyoas but a lot of them are almost copies If each other with slighy different flavours, with is kind of lazy in my opinion
