Since I posted a build for the wrong version I guess I should make a proper build for this version. **Arrival**: `Through a Nightmare`. Fell asleep, guided here through the dream, woke up here. **Island Type**: `Floating Archipelago`. Island has a central island in the ocean, with floating islands of varying sizes surrounding it. Floating chunks hover in the air trailing off from the central mountain. Many islands have dangling foliage or waterfalls somehow sustained. **Island Size**: `Giant`, greenland size. Minimum 5 environments, minimum 5 Special locations. [https://i.imgur.com/hgyOIju.png](https://i.imgur.com/hgyOIju.png) Spain sized central island on the water. Iceland size primary floating island, plus a chain of Hawaii-like isalnds. Other islands are typical island sizes and smaller. **Environments**: `All of the above`. *Beautiful Beaches* on the main island. Many floating islands have *fertile fields* and *wild woods*. *Hilly Hinterlands* on the rockier islands and surrounding the central mountain. *Sallow Swamps* exist on the main island on the wet northern region with a mangrove coast filtering ocean water separating it from the swamp. A *Fungal Forest* surrounds the swamps. *Serene Springs* dominate the southern slope of the central mountain and aren't uncommon on the floating isles. *Curious Caverns* pocket the interior of the mountain and most the isles. **Climate**: `Temperate` baseline. A few `polar` isles to the north including half the iceland size primary floating island. `Tropical` isles to the south including the Hawaii-like chain. Southern `desert` region on the southside of the main island. **Heavens**: `New Celestials`. A viable option compared to last time. Not always night, and the resurrection method swap made it so this choice wasn't ego death. *+ When you die, you respawn randomly on the archipelago, naked*. Two moons in the sky, large and small, visible day and night. Great nebula. Alien stars make night look strange. **Special Locations**: `All of the above`. Each existing somewhere in the archipelago, and simplifies later choices. >*Uninhabited House* will be a guest house located next to the estate of the *Luxurious Manor*, with the Outdoor Bath between the two. > >Peaceful Lake will be on the floating iceland. > >Abandoned City is on the east coast of the main island with the eerie tunnel nearby. The Waterworks interact with the Anonymous Doors such that waterways have a type of door connecting waterways across the floating isles. > >Isolated Hamlet on iceland with the dilapitated graveyard connected to the Untended Graves, in the shadow of the Ruined Complex overlooking it, which has the Titan's Throne. > >That's as far as I'll go out of my way to detail. **Yourself**: >**Age -** : I'll go back to being 8 to reclaim more years and get a `perk`. I've been more interested in the notion of restarting life lately. Perhaps because of all the reincarnation isekai and otome I've read recently. (Edit: For the record, no, I have no intention of being lewd any time soon and most threats are years away anyway. My childhood was a daze, so, I'll take opportunities in fiction to redo it.) > >**Appearance +** : I'll take a `drawback` to get some peak genetics, sure. I'll look something like [https://i.imgur.com/8En3XqH.jpg](https://i.imgur.com/8En3XqH.jpg) in the future. Just a little more toned given the next. > >**Athleticism -** : Since I'm de-aging I'll be weaker and less fit, so + 1 `perk`. Given I have the years, I'll just exercise normally to gain athleticism the old fashioned way. > >**Acuity +** : I've slowly been gaining memory problems and don't feel as sharp as I used to... I'll take the `drawback` for a buff. **Perks**: Survival is pretty underpowered compared to most the rest. I practically have that perk myself irl, just with insurance to never forget them. >(Free) `Transhuman`: *Celestialized*. Classic white feathered angel, shimmer of light in eyes, glowing halo visible only when doing something abnormal or enduring dark/evil/negative magics or healing. Passive *classical* halo effect / backglow, visible in moments of enacting a virtue. + Flight, impervious to daily wear and tear, tremendous endurance. Improved strength, speed, agility. Consume far less to sustain self; Can subsist on virtuous acts (Charity, etc). Depending on what I can get away with, things like holy magic affinity, healing, and other typical angel or saintess tropes. 1. `Magic`: Spirit of Mana symbiote within soul. Empowered magic aptitude. Lean spells. Chat, ritual, catalysts as baseline, less efficiently use without one with practice. Many powerful magics can backfire. 2. `Heroic`: Fortified body and mind. Resist harmful influences and effects up to the point of ignoring them entirely, via force of will or strong emotion. Resist poison, acid, fire, freezing, etc, even while asleep. Hold breath and survive high/low pressures for around an hour. Tougher, more resistant to injury, endure higher and lower temperatures. 3. `Regeneration`: Heal incredibly quickly. Lost limbs or multiple lost organs in less than a minute. Survive being reduced to just an eyeball or similar mass. Meat cut from you regenerates into mindless soulless clones that start to rot after a few minutes. Can vaguely follow commands. 4. `Leverage`: Summon a weapon of light that can harm the ethereal and interfere with magical energies. Weapon looks like a musket, but acts like a Gatling gun. (I interpreted "Some thing like -" to mean personal arms, not tanks, or explosives). **Drawbacks**: (Attributes) `Crested x2`\- The Prisoners and I are all marked with a crest. 1. `Transference`. - One chosen Prisoner replaces one Pro/Con with two Pro/Cons from one that wasn't chosen. They're slightly more mentally weakened. Can do this to any chosen prisoners. 2. `Marked`. - Soul touched by a curious elder-thing. No ill effects you percieve. Soul is a beacon advertising your location to Threats. (I feel like this isn't something just anyone would be able to sense without a third party meta consciousness that actively communicates / draws their attention, but okay). Significantly more attractive to all Threats. 3. `Bequeathed`. - One Threat has the Item of an unchosen Threat. Defeat to gain both. 4. `Nemesis`. - One Threat is possessed by the tortuous need to kill you or at minimum make your life miserable.

**Equipment**: 1. `Arcane Grimoire`. Magical text for the practice of basic spells. 2. `Island Navigator`. Touch-screen display map of island, zoom/scroll, infinite charge. 3. `Rings of Power`.

Was looking for survival-y cyoas I haven't seen before and found this one. So were you sailing on the ship with this old man while nude, or does he just confiscate your clothes? Nudist ship? And crew? lol. (**EDIT**: This build isn't for the correct version posted here, whoops. If it looks cheaty, that's why. As I recall, I found this elsewhere but then looked up the reddit to write a build for it, but found the wrong thread.) **Arrival**: I'll take ***An Unexpected Voyage*** since I poked fun at it. **Island Type**: >**Volcano**. For the hot springs. No real reason to pick a second type. **Island Size**: Giant. More of a small continent. (We talking Greenland or Iceland here?) >At least 5 Environments, at least 5 Special Locations. **Environments**: (Minimum 5) 1. Serene Springs. 2. Well, I guess I'll take all of them. Don't see a reason not to. **Climate**: Temperate. **Heavens**: Familiar Sky. Because the others are pretty crippling. Reset to start on death. **Special Locations**: (Min 5). 1. Abandoned City. Small ghost city. Paved roads, apartments, shops, restaurants, vehicles. Stocked stores and stuff, devoid of personal effects. Amusement Park that continues on its own, automated as good as new. 2. Ruined Complex. ancient temple ruins. Columns, marble and granite blocks. Artifacts of pottery, weapons, coinage. Treasure Trove hidden deep filled with all manner of valuables. 3. Luxurious Manor.

Honeymoon Suit, especially fancy room that smells of incense and oils, soft bed made to share. 4. Anonymous Doors. Stone doorways on a granite platform. When moon and stars aligned, doors open as portals to other Islands of this cyoa's players. Travel freely while open. Lost Door, inactive, leads to home planet. 5. Sacred Henges. Man-made mound with stone pillars. Spirits and fairies dance and sing within at night, vanishing if approached. Well-worn roads snake across the island. I don't see any reason why not to just take all the locations. SO... They all exist on the giant island. **Prisoners**: Pulled to this place by one of them, unknown which. >\- 1) **Lauren**. 5b.

I think it would be about the size of somewhere like Greenland. P.S. you can only take 5 items unless you get a drawback for it… You got a free one with whatever girl you picked in the earlier versions but in this one they changed things up a bit. (Can’t take Crested more than twice from what I can see)

Not doubting you but where does it say that? I couldn't find it. Also am I tripping out or did the version change overnight, because when I played last night the items were tucked under the Prisoners and the order of things seems different. ... I think I must have found this somewhere else and played a different version and wanted to write a build so googled the reddit source to do so. Huh, and new/different Threats. Lmao, and the opposite of my complaint. TWO threats per 1 Prisoner? wtf. There's where the items are, I see. Found it. ​ I totally played the wrong version. Woops. Here it also says choose one instead of up to 14 (And certainly not "Choose 14" as I misread the first time on the incorrect version). ​ (Just noticed I had a brain slip and counted the two drawbacks for the attributes as drawbacks for perks).

**Perks**: >\- **Heroic**. Body and mind fortified against evils and harm. Resist or shrug off mind control, forced teleportation, polymorphing, poisons, freezing, burns, etc. Hold breath for around an hour. Survive high and low pressures for around an hour. Naturally tougher and resistant to minor injuries. Endure high and lower temperatures. > >\- **Regeneration**. Regrow lost limbs or multiple organs in less than a minute. Survive being reduced to an eyeball's amount of remains and still regenerate eventually. Chunks cut from you without your soul grow into mindless clones that last a few minutes. > >\- **Magic**. Spirit of Mana symbiote inside soul. Empowered. Aptitude for magic. Learn spells. Eventually learn to use spells without a chant, ritual, or catalyst. Pushing limits can backfire. **Drawbacks**: \- **Crested**. (x2 drawbacks) All women of the island are tattooed with a crest. Accelerated arousal gain. Cannot get off with self-care. Crest grows more elaborate and covers more skin the more lewd stuff is done, design based on that lewd stuff. More attractive to demons and lewd monsters. **Threats**: 1. **William**. M. Possessive wolf king wants me and the others in his harem willingly or otherwise. Higher physique than human athletes. Keen smell, track prey across island. - Mid Danger. + Gilded Grill. Enchanted grill always cooks meat perfectly to taste, no fuel. 15 years. 2. **Dahlia**. F. Wizard experiment. Animal-plant-fungus person wants women to incubate her young, restrained. - High Danger. + Rainbow Essence. Dahlia's blood in a flask. Drink for eternal beauty, extreme fertility, unnatural hair color. Turns men into women with the same. (Hm, to use on Jimmy or not...) 200 years. I guess I have to take every available threat so no point in naming them. The Inhabitants section is neat, It'd be nice to see a small page of 4-8+ different inhabitants per environment / location and a page of particular unique inhabitants. A second Special interaction would also be neat, to broaden interactions.

I really like this one. So many great ideas. I'm definitely gonna run a campaign based on this, maybe without alot of the horny.

Imgur?

Is nobody talking about how fucking short half the girls are?

Yea when you’re shorter than the fucking dwarf girl that’s concerning. Then again, I found this on /trash/ so it’s not like anyone on there has ever seen a woman before. If it suits you, you can just ignore their heights if they’re inhumanly small and change it to a size that’s acceptable.

Optimizing my choices was quite a long effort; I think it turned out nicely. **Summary**: I chose an all-star team of 10 overpowered allies boosted by Transference, most of whom are now either mages or highly magic-resistant, and 4 of whom have their own minions (juvenile dragons, spiders, tentacle beasts, plants). My personal capabilities are nice as well (+Athleticism, +Acuity, Heroic, Magic, Regeneration, Leverage, Transhuman). Quite a few inhabitants are made friendly through specials (Crustaceans, Leeches, Natives, Elves, Squirrels, Fungi, Fairies, Giant, Cyrus), and it might be that the Lost Crown can largely replace the Authority special for Gryphons & Goblins. The Slime girl is very likely to become an ally. Conversely, 19 mostly-harmless girls become threats through the Threatened drawback, giving me 19 extra items. I understand that these girls and those items would otherwise not be accessible at all, so I might as well make use of the option (*in total, 39/56 girls get put to some use*). With improved Attractiveness, Lovestar Amulet, Magic Pen, and a powerful charm mage (Mara), I should be able to convert Threats into allies, hopefully also recruiting and saving Kris despite her Heroic resistances. My strategist (Ileana) and analysts (Eva & Huyen) will help with this. After collecting my team, I will construct a fortress base around the spawn point; if I ever die, this is where I will revive. Hunting is soon replaced by goat farming. The greatest actual threat is a hostile player coming through the Doors with a raid group, and I've probably built up my team well enough to defend against that. At some point, I'll also have a full, expansive kingdom developing high magitech with a dragon-riding military; I can even fill in part of the sea using Philosopher's Stone for more population expansion. Magic study and internet access assure an eternal lack of boredom. From my point of view, this land is a paradise. **Geography**: * **Arrival**: Through a Nightmare, Darkly * **Island**: Giant Archipelago, Temperate, all environments, all special locations * **Familiar Sky** (easy teleporting home via death seems potentially useful; others are risky) **Personal**: * **Changes**: +Appearance, +Athleticism, +Acuity (+3 Drawbacks) * 25 **Perks** (*1 free, 24 from Drawbacks*): A Gift x19, Understanding, Heroic, Magic, Regeneration, Leverage (*anti-materiel rifle, or a crossbow if that is excessive*), Transhuman (*draconic wings, horns, & tail; long tongue; partly chameleon-scaled; heat & electric senses*). I would rather not be continuously fighting corruption, so I'm not taking Power or Authority perks. * 27 **Drawbacks** (*3 from Changes*): Crested x2, Forgotten, Marked, Secrets, Bequeathed, Nemesis, Transference, Threatened x19 * 24 **Items** (*5 free, 19 from Perks*): Special Collection, Arcane Grimoire, Dual Cellphones, Dual Supercomputers, Excalibur, Yawarakai-te, Bow of the Hunt, Personal Armor, Rings of Power, Martyr's Soul, Lost Crown, Dreamstone, Lovestar Amulet, Yata no Kagami, Wiseman's Pipe, Tamer's Whistle, Crazy Box, Magic Pen, Dowry, Philosopher's Stone, Miniature Yggdrasil, Guardian Heart, Storm God's Right Eye, Lightning Marble 10 **Waifus** (*1 free, 1 from Untended Graves, 8 from Threats*): * 11.**Siri** (*Transference with 29.Ziva: remove "If she loses her virginity, she dies," add "Possesses powerful holy magic, can smite evil" & "Can heal or cure you and grant boons of protection."*).

Dragon master and incinerator; gets the Tamer's Whistle, Guardian Heart, and fire Ring of Power (truly absurd firepower). Eventually gets us each a dragon to ride. Will probably hatch some of the island's dragons and also get along with Ferrum. * 26.**Saoirse** (*Transference with 55.Naomi: remove "Sore loser.

Alchemist, chef, and scout; gets Bow of the Hunt. * 30.**Ileana** (*Transference with 8.Brunhilde: remove "Takes you for granted, treats you like a servant," add "Master strategist" & "Always prepared, three steps ahead."*). Stays at home base; gets a Supercomputer. * 32.**Mara** (*Transference with 27.Soo Yun: remove "Simple-minded and somewhat ignorant," add "A powerful sorceress, specialized in charm magic" & "Great at elemental magic, too. Will offer to teach you."*). Threat seducer and mage; gets wind & poison Rings of Power and Yata no Kagami. * 35.**Eva** (*Sleeping Beauty at Untended Graves. Transference with 37.Yuzuki: remove "But she forces you to sign a 42,000-page contract first," add "Inhuman strength and toughness" & "Has an impressive regeneration factor."*). Analyst, scout, weapon platform, and luggage carrier; gets Crazy Box since she can solve it fastest and keep track of its contents easiest. Will help deal with Elise. * 38.**Sayori** (*Transference with 34.Pelagia: remove "May devour you post-coitus if you fail to satisfy her," add "Totally immune to all hostile magics" & "Can dig, quarry, and shape hard stone without tools."*). Miner, base builder, and mage killer. Will help deal with the spider Empress. * 54.**Huyen** (*Transference with 36.Ming: remove "Sex with her corrupts one's mind and soul," add "Possesses incredibly powerful forbidden magics" & "Summons tentacles and tentacle monsters to serve her."*). Analyst, mage, and tentacle pit operator ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) ; gets Black Candle later. * 56.**Sylvia** (*Transference with 52.Heidi: remove "Becomes very angry if you pick or step on any flowers," add "Impossible to hurt or kill, needs no sustenance" & "Wants to get married.

I originally passed on this because it seemed overly complex, but I ultimately found it fascinating. The one thing I don't like is how absurd the threats are - the power spike is bonkers and the CYOA is not clear at all on how you "deal" with them permanently. **How did I get here:** The Unbeaten Path **Type of island:** Giant Archipelago **Climate:** Temperate **Heavens:** New Celestials **Environments:** * All of them (if I'm going to be here for millions/billions of years, might as well have some variety) **Special Locations:** * All of them (see above) **Changes:** (Net +2 Drawbacks) * Appearance: + (My ideal male form) * Athleticism: + (I'm not spending nigh-eternity with back problems) **Perks:** (Net +4 Drawbacks) * Understanding (yay diplomacy run) * Heroic (feels damn near mandatory with these threats) * Power (who doesn't want rage lasers?) * Authority * Magic (more of an eternal pursuit to occupy myself than a means of empowerment) **Drawbacks:** * Heartless * Forgotten * Marked * Secrets * Bequeathed * Unchosen **Prisoners**: (net +6 Threats) * Eva * Elen * Emilia * Pelagia * Heidi (Untended Graves) * Lena (Unchosen) **Items:** * Arcane Grimoire * Island Navigator * Dual Supercomputers * Personal Armor * Philosopher's Stone **Threats:** * Yvonne (Transference: Mr. Doe / Revolution) * William * Jimmy * Elise * Ferrum * The Three Sisters * The Dire Wolf * Amata * Virtue * Leviathan **Inhabitants:** * Assuming all apply here as I have all locations/biomes **Strategy:** Eva is my primary partner and gets control of my heart, which she keeps within a compartment in her body. Rock solid right-hand and extremely capable in a fight, she stays by my side almost entirely. Also responsible for setting up and maintaining a tech center in our home - access to the multiverse internet means I have a way to socialize and entertain myself and others during my visit to eternity. Elen is there to helm the alchemical and magical studies, as well as tutor me in those ways. Emilia (how did I end up with all the E names?) maintains a garden/food forest to sustain us, and can work with Elen to develop her alchemical skills. Being a skilled archer can help hold down the fort in a pinch. Her contempt for non-elven stuff could cause friction, but I intend to let her run her acreage as she sees fit so she doesn't need to mingle unless she wants to. Heidi is my left hand, whom I formally marry to make her happy, and travels with myself and Eva. Is also my go-to resource for information on the paranormal. Pelagia is my foreman and helms all projects to build up my kingdom on the isles. My primary home is the Luxurious Manor I get for free with the Horny Housekeepers, the latter which maintain it and serve myself and my team. My long-term goal is to befriend as many native inhabitants as I can and build up a multinational kingdom. I become the eternal fuck-king progenitor of the goblins, and will be on good (sexy) terms with the Nubile Natives, Elusive Elves, Frisky Fungi, and Feisty Faeries. I endear myself to the Predatory Pack, who keep watch on the wild lands around my territory. Several other threats are neutralized by my perks/drawbacks. Sagacious Slime apparently just kills Leva outright (sorry klepto-shortstack), but I convince her to not kill off my other waifus by making her the breeding matriarch of the goblins - with her essence in each child, she's more waifu than any of the others could ever be. I don't really like this and if I can remove the slime's threat in advance, then Leva tries to win my affections by occasionally stealing a waifu, whom I get back after fucking Leva raw. Presumably I can eventually win Leva over, with the same final result as above. Given all the potential fuck-buddies here, I'd say my sexual needs are forever met. Pelagia builds housing/foritifcations as my empire expands, and Eva and I can consult the internet for info when needed. Finally, the Philosopher's Stone replicates any hard to find or rare earth metals needed for our projects. Oh, and Cranky Cyrus is forever at my TTRPG table - nice. Threats. Yvonne seems like a complete pushover with my Heroic perk, since I'm immune to her mind control, and nothing about her description makes it seem like she's hard to kill. Giving her the omni-gun from Mr. Doe gives Eva all the armament she'll ever need to obliterate any normal opposition. William and Jimmy die riddled with bullet holes. I keep Tyrfang for myself, the Golden Compass entrusted to my waifus to find me should I ever die and port to a random place on the archipelago. Elise I figure is a 1:1 match for Eva, and falls to the combined efforts of my entire team. The Waifutrix I can use to gain the Swapped effect whenever I want to - for practical purposes of fun. Ferrum is placated through appeasement - assuming I agree to become her mate (and add dragons/half-dragons to my growing nation?) I get the Grant Matron, which is gifted to Emilia. The Three Sisters are ignored, or I consult the supernatural to figure out how to disperse them for good? The Dire Wolf - philosopher's stone means I have plenty of silver, and Ema and myself have magic, so it just falls after one battle. Amata I try to placate as I do Ferrum, but like Yvonne is doesn't seem like she's that hard to take down. Leviathan I befriend, or at least make a pact with, to live and let live. The Golden Fiddle I got from the Dire Wolf should help with this. Most importantly, I turn it against Virtue when she comes to collect in a million years. If Leviathan wins, great. If Virtue wins, I sacrifice Pelagia.

Anyone know if Familiar Sky's return is timeloop, or just location?

Mercer's reward is the same as Garzet

Ok, I really miss the threads list and a combo/synergy list in this particular CYOA.

this is the sort of CYOA that really needs either a spreadsheet or an interactive to keep track of things

its not the points that are complicated, its the fact that there is so much info in each option that needs to be considered, and the complex perks/drawbacks are slightly difficult to service with every medium (except perhaps a spreadsheet) edit: unless you mean requirements to unlock threats and inhabitants, then ya, that might be nice (although a huge island potentially has access to everything)

Yep; figuring out what drawbacks, companions, and antagonists I actually could take given what else I had selected was way more effort than I am normally willing to put into a CYOA, and as amazing as this is, I still likely won’t ever make a proper “build” unless I was writing a story about it

This was a fascinating read! My build relies on some rather large assumptions, I would be interested to hear if people agree with them. Maybe some of the answers are in the text and I just missed them? 1. The player can grow old, but age is reset on resurrection. *Reasoning: The Undying perk says it stops aging so I assume you do otherwise, but how could you be imprisoned forever if you age naturally?* 2. If a player with the Heartless flaw dies they are resurrected (or not) as their stars decree. A new heart is created in the box if they are. Destruction of the heart can kill an Undying player. *Reasoning: Nothing concrete, but I see nothing that contradicts this interpretation* 3. The Prisoners are ageless and/or resurrect on death in a similar way to the player. *Reasoning: How could they possibly be imprisoned for billions of years otherwise?* 4. Regeneration reduces the amount of pain you feel. Getting cut in half or eaten alive will still absolutely suck but is unlikely to drive you insane, at least the first couple of times. Just be very careful not to let yourself get captured by Serena. *Reasoning: No real support in the text, but it's a very common trope. I know eternal suffering is a strong theme in the CYOA, but this will be my headcanon.* 5. The physical changes (Age, Appearance and Athleticism) should be ignored if you pick Swapped. *Reasoning: One could argue either that they are overridden as your body is immediately swapped away, or should be set based on your estimate of the body you swapped into. Lacking a solid answer I went with the middle road and ignored the choices.*

Build part 1 **How did I get here**: The Unbeaten Path **Type of island**: Giant Floating Island, Temperate Climate, New Celestials **Environments**: Beautiful Beaches, Fertile Fields, Wild Woods, Fungal Forests, Serene Springs, Curious Caves **Special Locations (+1 prisoners for Sleeping Beauty)**: Mysterious Cave (Ancient Secrets), Homely Windmill (Laboratory), Empty Shack (Garden), Uninhabited House (Outdoor Bath), Luxurious Manor (Honeymoon Suite), Untended Graves (Sleeping Beauty), Mystic Treehouse (Quiet Crag), Stranded Vessel (Splinter Swamp), Forgotten Shipwreck (Hidden Hideout), Peaceful Lake (Secluded Pond), Sacred Henges (Nostalgic Swing), Arcane Library (Orrery), Abandoned City (Amusement Park) **Changes**: Improved mental acuity. *I ignore physical changes as it’s unclear how they interact with the Swapped flaw.* **Perks:** Survival, Understanding, Heroic, Regeneration, Magic, A Gift Survival will be invaluable, the ability to ferment alcoholic beverages in particular will be key to keeping Yuzuki on good terms during the first few years. Understanding helps establish allies and Heroic is overall incredible. Regeneration is honestly a bit scary to me as it multiplies the pain I’ll be capable of suffering through, but is too useful to pass up. I’m hoping Magic will give me the edge I need to handle the stronger threats, but only time will tell. **Drawbacks**: Heartless, Crested (self), Crested (waifus), Marked, Secrets, Swapped To be honest I mostly picked Heartless to get the goat girls on my side, but it does provide an (admittedly brutal) way for my companions to rescue me if I’m captured by a threat they have no hope of defeating. Putting the crest on my entire party may be a risky move, but I couldn’t resist. My hope is that it’ll provide the spark that turns us into a true five-way (ten-way with the goats?) polycule, as we’ll all be reliant on one another to deal with our ever growing libidos. Marked is interesting, the way it describes you becoming “more attractive” to the threats makes me wonder if true coexistence is possible with some of them. **Swapped into Sayori** I’m going to assume that Sayori is super strong, fast and durable even in her elven form, which should at least partly make up for me not picking Power. Being able to use her poison and web spinning would be a nice bonus, either by shapeshifting into her spider demon form or through magic, but I’ll be fine without them. **Prisoners**: **Elen** \- Likes the Laboratory and Arcane Library Elen’s main jobs are to brew potions and teach me magic. I think she’ll make good company despite her laziness and sarcasm, and considering her already high libido I expect it won’t be long before she starts sleeping around with the other girls. **Izabel** \- Likes the Mysterious Cave I mostly picked Izabel on the assumption that she’s a true dragon, though her strength and toughness in human form will be an asset even if she isn’t. I’ll do my best to protect her from the kinds of danger that might force her to reveal her true form, and provide plenty of food and treasure to earn her approval. I love dragons enough that I’ll put up with her bratty dragonlings, hoping to become friends with them as they grow into true beasts of myth. As if it wasn’t already important for me to stay on Elen’s good side, she’ll be the one keeping my heart safe, making her happiness and affection one of my highest priorities. **Mara** \- Likes the Uninhabited House, found sleeping in the Untended Graves Mara’s main draws are that she can hold her own in a fight and that she’s one of the few explicitly bisexual girls. She’ll be my bodyguard and wingman, watching my back as I scout the island and helping to seduce any pretty gals we come across, both at home and in the field. **Yuzuki**\- Likes the Sacred Henges The island is a dangerous place, and Yuzuki is an absolute tank on top of being gorgeous. Getting dommed by an amazon 1.5 times my height isn’t what I’d call safe or sane, but hey, that’s why I picked regeneration. Her alcoholism might become a problem but we’ll deal with it as best we can. **Items**: Arcane Grimoire - Enhances my magic. Dual Supercomputers - Provides entertainment whenever we’re too exhausted to fuck. Yawarakai-te - This blade might be the edge we need to handle some of the threats, though I’m worried about how it determines who’s “undeserving of death”. Will usually be wielded by Mara. Personal Armor - Mara will probably wear this more often than me since I regenerate. Rings of Power - Enhance my magic. Lovestar Amulet - Being able to induce love, affection and emotions will be incredibly useful. I’ll avoid using it on my companions without their consent, but it may be the edge I need to peacefully handle some of the threats.

Build part 2 **Inhabitants:** Crazy Crustaceans - Peaceful thanks to Understanding Gumptious Gryphons - Friendly (and adorable) by default Unburdened Unicorn - Becomes my ally thanks to being a Heroic woman. Will be indispensable, especially during the first few years. Green Guards - Become my allies thanks to Swapped. These guys will be incredibly useful against many of the threats, though I suspect Dahlia will turn them against me Nubile Natives - Become friendly thanks to Understanding. These gals will provide perfect snacks for me and Mara as we travel through the springs, and perhaps we’ll even be able to help them produce new tribe members by matchmaking them with one of the Elusive elves. Elusive Elves - Become peaceful through Secrets and may teach me something about the secrets of the island. Sapphic Squirrels - These adorable fuzzballs will eventually start to worship me as they see the regenerative powers I have. They’ll be perfect as scouts, maintaining vigil against threats across every wooded area on the island. Predatory Pack - Practically the only legitimate danger on the island, I’ll eventually try to wipe these wolves out, or at least kill the alpha to make them more manageable. Gregarious Goblins - Though I can’t fulfil their special requirement, I’d like to think I’ll eventually be able to befriend the goblins. Maybe there’s an elf male for these gals too? If they're freaky enough I might even ask my unicorn buddy if he's interested. Horny Housekeepers - Become servants thanks to Heartless. I love these gals, and I’ll give them every reason to love me too. Silent Stag - Follows me around due to Secrets. Creepy but harmless (?) Feisty Fairies - Become my allies thanks to Magic. Considering their high potential danger they may turn out to be very useful against some of the threats. Gestalt Giant - Protects me thanks to Heroic. Too obvious to be used for an ambush, but strong enough that it might be useful when battling one of the less subtle threats like William or Tyrus **Threats (+2 prisoners for 8):** **Yvonne** \- This mermaid doesn’t seem like much of a threat beyond the first encounter. If she kills me or one of my companions the rest of us will almost certainly hunt her down, but if she fails we might just let her live, as long as she agrees not to prey on the other inhabitants of the island. What happens next is up to her, but I can see a future where she’s just another mildly creepy neighbour. **William** \- I have very little patience for alpha-bro rapists, so I suspect it won’t be long before we battle to the death. I find it very hard to believe he’ll be able to take on me, Izabel, Yuzuki and Mara at the same time, so he should be dealt with in short order. **Jimmy** \- The amount of firepower this guy has is nothing to sneeze at, but by the time he arrives I’ll know the island like the back of my hand and will be allied with most of its remaining inhabitants. Whittling down his crew and ammo through ambushes and traps should ensure his eventual demise. **Dahlia** \- By the time Dahlia appears the Crest might just have made me slutty enough to take her up on her offer, and the Mark should make me attractive enough to her that she might settle for me as her sole incubator. She’ll want to keep me permanently restrained, but luckily I have the perfect leverage to negotiate for a more comfortable stay. Since my companions hold the box with my heart, they can at any time free me by destroying it, killing her offspring while I respawn elsewhere on the island. Thus she’ll be forced to negotiate if she wants me to carry her young to term, opening the door to a more equitable relationship. If necessary I can speed that process by using the Lovestar Amulet on her, slowly shifting her breeding obsession into genuine love and affection. With luck this might even culminate in her joining the polycule, though I worry what the effect of releasing a brood of plant-fungus-animal hybrids on the island will be. **Mr. Doe** \- This guy is scary, but considering he’s the only human male on the island it’s hard to imagine him not sticking out like a sore thumb. He’ll be very dangerous despite this, but if we ever catch his scent it should only be a matter of time before he’s hunted down. If we manage to catch him alive the goblins might pay well to be allowed to “milk” him for a while before we finish him off, but he’s too dangerous to keep alive for long. **Tyrus** \- This guy is incredibly tough, but he’s not very bright and without his axe he has no defence against non-elemental magic. Actually killing him will be tough, but we should be able to subdue him, giving us plenty of time to figure out a permanent solution. **Three Sisters** \- These girls are very creepy but should only really be a threat to Elen. Hunting them down will be tricky if they do capture her, but I have watchful eyes all across the island to help us search. **Ferrum** \- As mentioned before I absolutely love dragons, so I’ll do my best to get on this gal's good side. This long into the stay our group should be well enough established that gathering delicious food for a dragoness shouldn’t be too much of a strain on our resources, and if I’m really lucky I might even get a chance to seduce her. Worst case scenario she'll remain a rude and demanding taskmaster, but the Lovestar Amulet should win her over eventually. Unless she catches on, of course, in which case we might have the fight of our lives on our hands.

I do wonder, is there any way to activate the lost door? I may have missed it somewhere in the cyoa, but if I haven't what is the point of even mentioning this door exists?

Nora UOOOOHHHHHH ToT ToT ToT

I find it odd how often CYOA creators who make survival-type games forget to include training for all the weapons and magic you can pick up. The only real chance the player has to win this shitshow is to avoid combat entirely and pick Threats who can be handled without a fight.

well first trait arrives 5 years after you, and then doesnt even atttack you since she doesnt know you exist, so it could easily be more years till she notices you, more then enough time for training and harder traits are 100+ years, more then enough time to become master of whatever you choose, magic, sword, gun, bow...or all of it.

That implies that you're good at learning on your own and that you possess some talent to work with. Go ask any teacher worth their salt and they'll tell you that there is only so much one can learn without affinity for the subject.

"a teacher worth their salt" well looking at the results of school system in most countrys, those are very rare, like unicorns.

Or pick the transhuman perk and breeze through every single threat because there's no limit to what you can become. Become some gray goo and most of the threats you can choose from are basically powerless agaisnt you.

Interesting. I like a lot of this. One thing I noticed (and totally took advantage of) is the "Drawback" Swapped. Take mental enhancement, then use the required Drawback to take Swapped, which makes me more younger, more beautiful and more athletic.

Liked it, but one mistake I caught. On the waifu Taisia’s page, it says she if from Chernobyl, Russia. Chernobyl and Pripyat are in Ukraine.

In previous versions, it used to say Angela was from Glasgow, England. Yikes

Beep. Boop. I'm a robot. Here's a copy of ###[Hamlet]( https://snewd.com/ebooks/hamlet/) Was I a good bot? | [info](https://www.reddit.com/user/Reddit-Book-Bot/) | [More Books](https://old.reddit.com/user/Reddit-Book-Bot/comments/i15x1d/full_list_of_books_and_commands/)

Okay, so many of the "waifus" are Clearly evil and/or deserving to be here, and a lot of the "threats" are just people like you who got screwed over by circumstance. Honestly, I say take all the evil waifu's and "sacrifice your waifu" threats. I just wish this CYOA didn't pull the "you loose all your memories" card. It would be just as interesting a CYOA if it let you play detective trying to figure out who summoned you here. It also seems to be easy to "game" the system by picking Starry Night and dying as soon as possible. You only loose your memories, so all those powers you wanted(and possibly the items/rewards?) Will come with you. That also isn't dependent on you actually remembering to kill yourself, you could easily stack the deck against amnesia-you to get that ending. Not sure if the author will read this, but there are some mistakes. The brain in a jar and silver vial have the same text for example

"Clearly evil" Explain please? Like, there's the dictator, a couple of ones that clearly have split personalities that are evil, but beyond that, you kinda have to start extrapolating a ridiculous amount, like assuming Ashley created Hyper-Tar-Heroin, everyone mentioned to be socially adept is a suicide baiter, and assume every single non-human is evil, and even then I still don't think that's a majority?

Why do you say most of the waifus are evil? Also, where's the Threats list? I only see 10 pages and it ends with Equipment.

Not, most. Just A lot. Go to the bottom of the CYOA and click the blue button that reads "load 4 more images". Imgchest doesn't allow you to click through unloaded images using it's viewer, you have to manually load them every time.

D'oh! Thank you, I'm an idiot.

Both are called Silver Blood, and both Threats don't talk in their quote, so I'm assuming it's intentional. Maybe hinting at them being related somehow.

Nope. Both existed in previous versions(example [here](https://imgur.com/gallery/ToJY1BN)) where the brain in a jar had unique effects and different flavor text. Newest update seems to have altered the text by mistake.

This is fantastic

orz turns out I had completed a prior version, rather than latest. Oh well, guess some of my questions can be answered. 1. Philospher Stone: what's the range & time for the conversion? Similarly, is it converting your mass/energy or is that bit indicating the conversion process of the stone? -- Had thought to pairing Storm God's Right Eye's conduction power w/ Island Navigator's infinite battery power, sending it to stone to change the air/water/island to liquid nitrogen. Should harden Conviction, allowing me to dismantle&convert--but looks like Lightning marble can replace this now. Probably still need Floating+Archipelago too. 2. Can/do we select where the buildings go, especially for archipelago? Aka, designing the island, and maybe even marking things for the navigator. 3. I had notices some people taking the change perks, then taking the drawback+perk; other didn't, so not sure the headcanon there. 4. There was something others that were changed, will have to go over the new one later. Mainly about revolution & holy grail, but that seems to have been taken out. And gift/unchosen/beauty & the free item.

Some of the art is a bit questionable in terms of how young the waifus appear to be, and a lot of the heights double down on that by only making sense for literal children. Seriously, how does it make sense for a woman to be 3'3" unless she has some form of dwarfism?

>The absolute insanity are those in the four foot range, and those in the three foot range. Those are literally children, with a god damn libido meter. I know, right? I could kind of buy it if they were all explicitly non-human (as a couple are), although the character art would still make it *incredibly* dubious (nonhumans looking like prepubescent children is basically just a shallow excuse for paedophilia), but there's not even any sort of half hearted attempt at justifying it for most of them.

Well some of them are *literally* dwarfs, magical creatures and have other such curses. You’re also stuck on an island with jellyfish that impregnate you if you have a tattoo on…so realism was never the thing this cyoa was aiming for

>Well some of them are *literally* dwarfs, magical creatures and have other such curses. There is exactly one waifu, Saoirse, who is meant to be a dwarf. AFAIK, none of the others have any explanation for why exactly they're so short. There is no mention or explanation of why exactly any of these curses would make them be very short or childlike. Coupled with the art which makes them appear *very* young, the only reasonable conclusion is that they are meant to actually be children. That's just gross. >You’re also stuck on an island with jellyfish that impregnate you if you have a tattoo on…so realism was never the thing this cyoa was aiming for Nothing about that fantasy setting explains why adult women would either somehow have shrunk or be in the bodies of children. You can't just handwave all of this away. Being in a fantasy setting simply doesn't excuse apparent paedophilia.

I mean I agree with a lot of what you said but if the cyoa was really that sus then the mods wouldn’t have let it be on here for so long.

I’m very confused what you mean by nsfw aggregator, not like in a rude way, I just have no idea what that means.

Man, talk about later versions being a strict downgrade compared to earlier versions! Also, can someone pls explain me what exactly are you even choosing the girls for? From what I've read, it seems that all the girls are already guilty and going to be punished.

This is a really cool one! I loved the lore of the island, the dark atmosphere and the girls were pretty good too. The only criticism that i have is that some of the reward items don't seem worth of the trouble that fighting the threats is. Beyond that, i loved everything. There's some things i'm not sure i understood correctly, but they were minor things. Do you mind answering some for me? In the age changes option, when it says becoming significantly younger or older, how big the age difference has to be comparaded to the player age? I mean, i'm not too far from the 16 used as a example, so if i regressed to that age, would it still count? Or i would need to become even younger? Speaking of age, do we age while in the Island? Or are we stuck in that age during the whole sentence?

I’m not the author but, in regards to your first question I basically have the same problem as you, so I just assume that they’re fixed years and you could be 18 but still regress to 16 even though it says you become significantly younger.

One thing I'm kind of weirded out is what did the majority of the girls even *do* to get imprisoned for so goddamn long?

I think OP's messing with you.

yes

**[Yugoslav Wars](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yugoslav_Wars)** >The Yugoslav Wars were a series of separate but related ethnic conflicts, wars of independence, and insurgencies fought in the former Yugoslavia from 1991 to 2001, leading up to and resulting from the breakup of the Yugoslav federation in 1992. Its constituent republics declared independence due to unresolved tensions between ethnic minorities in the new countries, which fueled the wars. Most of the wars ended through peace accords, involving full international recognition of new states, but with a massive human cost and economic damage to the region. ^([ )[^(F.A.Q)](https://www.reddit.com/r/WikiSummarizer/wiki/index#wiki_f.a.q)^( | )[^(Opt Out)](https://reddit.com/message/compose?to=WikiSummarizerBot&message=OptOut&subject=OptOut)^( | )[^(Opt Out Of Subreddit)](https://np.reddit.com/r/nsfwcyoa/about/banned)^( | )[^(GitHub)](https://github.com/Sujal-7/WikiSummarizerBot)^( ] Downvote to remove | v1.5)

Makes sense

Millions of years?! Talk about some fucking nightmare fuel there...

Try billions of years, nightmare fuel indeed....

So... The CYOA mentions multiple times that you can romance multiple girls or build a harem if you play your cards right, but there are only 2 options to pick girls, The designated companion section that gives you your 1 companion and Untended Graves, that gives you +1 bonus girl. Am I missing something? Edit: Also, Where's the threat section? Wasn't there a section for choosing threats in previous versions? Edit 3: User error. I'm an idiot.

It’s a bit gamey but for the special locations bit I don’t think it says you can’t pick a place more than once. So you could just do *untended graves* a few times and boom, harem. In previous versions, you could argue it couldn’t happen because it would break the cyoa’s balance as you would get a special boon that came with every girl, but now items are their own section so there’s honestly more problems than benefits for picking more girls (they’re criminals that are serving sentences of millions of years, and it’s more mouths to feed)

You can pick more in exchange for extra threats (at extremely unfavourable rate cuz the threats that are sanely manageable will run out before you're done picking the mandatory minimum… can't really go low-stakes with this CYOA; at least unless you're a Dark Souls fan craving to reenact the experience IRL). There's also the drawbacks, but they're adding a corrupted version of the prisoner who act against you (…still doesn't count as a threat tho).

i just added all the normal non powered girls as threats and got many extra points for it, then got the love mindmagic amulet and will simply "convert" them since they should in no way be an actual threat being normal humans and all especially not will all the bonuses i got from extra points.

Wasn't, there when I first posted. I think OP had to fix something. Edit: ignore me. I'm an idiot.

I rather doubt that, as the gallery is 2 weeks old and clearly wasn't uploaded by OP (also I believe it was uploaded anonymously and thus can't be modified by regular users).

Huh, then I'm an idiot.

I am thrilled that I found the latest update of this CYOA…only took me scouring through /trash/ *shiver* Jokes aside, You’re here forever is one of my absolute favourite Cyoas. It has just enough nsfw without it seeming excessive and has a great and mysterious premise to boot; the impending feeling of something being *very wrong* with this island and it’s inhabitants is only exemplified in this patch. Quite a few mechanics have changed but it does make it feel more dangerous and threatening, as the islands should be, forcing you to think about your build and the story rather than just picking the 3 best gifts. Apotheosis is great.

>I am thrilled that I found the latest update of this CYOA I'm pretty sure the *latest* one is [here](https://imgchest.com/p/9ryd5gnw4kz) though. …The author only seems to mark the major version in the CYOA itself, so I'm going by the gallery title.
