Welcome to Struson's Spellcraft Academy!
The fantastic realm of Iphendore is populated by a great many cultures and races that have developed equally-many magical traditions- the esoteric lore and techniques their mages use to shape mana into spells. Contrary to the beliefs of the manaless, there is more than one way to skin the metaphorical sorcerous cat. Wizardry, shamanism, druidism, and more... countless traditions exist, each with their own merits, shortcomings, and history. Accordingly, there are just as many ways to learn magic... but across all of Iphendore, there is only one institution which sets aside bias and teaches them all.
Despite its prestigious reputation, Struson's Spellcraft Academy started as an archive of Iphendore's varied mysticisms and catechisms before it was a college. Struson himself founded it to collect and preserve magic knowledge, not leverage it for conquest or glorify on tradition as 'the best'. But running an organization isn't free and Iphendore has never seen a shortage of rich people wanting to buy their way to success. That's why, despite its late founder's own desire, the archive transformed over intervening centuries from a mere repository to the famous (and famously expensive) college it is today.
That's the story of the academy. So... what's the story of how you wound up here?
What is Sluts & Studs?
First of all, howdy and thanks for checking this post out! I represent a group of lusty gamers that love RP and smut. There are currently four of us, but we're hoping to add one or two more to our group. It should go without saying, but both the real people and the fictional characters involved are all 18 only.
Sluts & Studs is the name of our lewd text-based Pathfinder PbP Discord RP. Clear communication is a must, so let me break that down.
- Lewd - S&S isn't just a game about erotic fantasy. It's also a fantasy about an erotic game! In other words, the players and GM themselves explore sexual relationships with each other outside the game, too.
- Text-based - No voice chat or webcamming is used, IC or OOC. We have a streaming channel, but it's only for entertainment like movies or video games, not calls or camming.
- Pathfinder - We're using Pathfinder 1e rules for S&S, but this isn't structured like a typical PF game. Since they're students at a mage college, all PCs are required to be spellcasters. There's also some NSFW homebrew added to the game in the form of two different metacurrencies: SP (similar to hero points) earned for lewd behavior in general, and BP (similar to minor gestalt) given out for breeding specifically. Also instead of a linear AP-like design, S&S is divided into slice-of-life style RP during semesters and dungeon-crawls during vacation breaks between semesters.
- PbP - S&S runs in play-by-post rather than live sessions, which makes the dreaded Schedulon, Slayer of Games a little less dreadful. We're laid back about post frequency but keep things active by chatting with each other outside the game on a daily basis: joking, sharing memes, flirting, and so on.
- Discord RP - We use a private Discord server for S&S. Different channels are designated for different 'threads' of the roleplay, so for instance we could simultaneously run the 'main game' in one channel while using our flashback RP channel for exploring your character's tragic backstory. We don't use a VTT like Roll20 or Foundry (not yet, at least).
What is S&S about?
This game takes place at Struson's Spellcraft Academy, a setting that has normalized sexual free use of those from lower social classes. It follows a group of college students learning how to simultaneously balance on-demand sexual availability with having respect for their partners. Our narrative is collaborative and primarily character-driven with emphasis on personal growth, learning responsible kink, and overcoming institutionalized sexism/classism. The story is told through their sexual relationships with each other. Whether the PCs end up uncovering some sinister plot to take over the world or destroy the academy is yet to be determined!
The cast currently consists of:
- Dirk Roderiston: dominant wolfman male, a cocky canine star-player of Struson's Sportsball team (Goooo Chimeras!)
- Prince Harol von Pinochle-Reinsvurg the Second: dominant human male, a smug and ice-cold noble who is slow to warm up to new people, including...
- Myna: submissive catgirl female, a poor peasant country girl attending her freshman year at Struson's on scholarship funding (Contingent on certain extracurricular 'obligations'.)
- Yuan Zhangjing: dominant dragon (Chinese lung variety) male, a hot-blooded host of divine power and celestial wisdom who is still working on figuring out that 'celestial wisdom' part
What about kinks?
Good question! I often see GMs talk about their lewd games in terms of story-smut ratios, as if the two exclude each other like oil and water. But ideally, we're expressing our story through the smut... after all, the PCs are living in an elaborate domestic BDSM fantasy. Some of those BDSM elements extend out of character as well. Willingness to engage with that is a must, and eagerness to do so is a big plus! Accordingly, our group is especially interested in safely but thoroughly indulging these kinks:
- Breeding: We're seriously into breeding, so we don't just forget about it the morning after! Our group writes character biographies for the offspring with the aid of lifepath random tables, and as previously mentioned also offers mechanical bonuses for prodigious procreation.
- Enforced dom/sub dynamic: Nobody is really forced to do anything, but everyone in our group is assigned a role based whether they are dom or sub. Doms have more server permissions and are given more generous chargen rules for slightly stronger PCs. Subs are expected to let the doms take care of them and sexually service them in return.
- Exhibitionism: We're shameless exhibitionists! There is no designated "typefuck over here" channel on the server and nobody takes sex scenes to private DMs. Letting each other watch the action (Or even join in on it!) is part of the appeal for all of us.
- Free use: Subs are assumed to be nude except when given lingerie/cosplay by doms and are considered available for sexual use by doms at any time. Both dominant and submissive players are encouraged to take advantage of this to gain SP rewards for their PCs.
Aside from that, we collectively enjoy a wide variety of kinks which are not limited to the vanilla or realistic. As long as it's not one of the group's sexual limits, it's on the table! Our current list of sexual limits includes scat, vore, snuff, gorn, gratuitous sexual violence, nonsexual pain, abusive dirty talk, realistic rape, NTR, chastity, birthing scenes, UNbirthing scenes, sounding, and underaged characters. New players will have an opportunity to add their own limits to the list.
Aside from all that, it's also worth mentioning that we use some of Discord's emojis as shorthand to signal things like a submissive player wanting to be punished or requesting aftercare. Most important of all these shorthand codes is 🚫, which we use as a safeword in case anybody (dom or sub) is getting legitmately uncomfortable.
What kind of players are you looking for?
As I said before, we're looking for one or two new players. Ideally we'd like to add a dom and a sub, who both check all of these boxes:
- You love all four focus kinks described above!
- You use good spelling, punctuation, capitalization, and grammar.
- You can or even prefer to write multi-paragraph RP posts.
- You can handle both freeform RP and dungeon-crawling in PbP format. Previous experience with Pathfinder 1e is a plus but not a prerequisite if you're a fast learner!
- You are sociable and talkative, interested in getting to know your follow players even outside the game.
- You want to collaborate on building a setting and story with your fellow players.
- You understand that both doms and subs have sexual and social limits, will respect the use of the safeword, and will use it yourself if needed.
If that sounds like you, I look forward seeing your orange envelope in my inbox soon!
Contacting Us
Doms, please send me a Reddit message titled "Sluts & Studs Dom:" followed by your favorite color. Subs, your Reddit message to me should be titled "Sluts & Studs Sub:" followed by your favorite animal! The colors and animals will help me tell the otherwise identical message titles apart and are also cute. :)
The message itself should describe why you're interested in this game, and also include your hard sexual limits, your past experience- if any- with Pathfinder 1e, and anything else you'd care to share or ask about up front. People who send Reddit chats, short and vapid messages, or don't title their message correctly are not guaranteed a response, but everyone else who messages me while this post is still open will at least receive a courtesy response from me within a few days.
I'd like to get to know you a bit on Reddit. Assuming I like the cut of your jib, I'll route you to private conversations on Discord with the other three group members and I'll review a copy of our BDSM contract with you. It's not legally binding (We only wrote it in the form of a contract because having a contract sounded cool as hell.), but it is very informative!
That may all sound very intimidating, but we treat this gaming group as a sexual relationship which means mutual trust, respect, and understanding are needs not just wants. As a result, we have agreed that everybody in our group is entitled to the opportunity to speak with any potential new members before an invitation is extended.
