ayneris, who was my first experiment with turning female servants into femboys!

and a wip of maple :3 

Here is how I figured the first season would go episode by episode:

Episode 1: Welcome to Wimborn - You are ambushed on you way to the city and arrive at the city with nothing only to find that your inheritance from your late uncle consists only of Alise [the halfkin fox guide girl/Starting Servant (SS)] and a poorly kept manor house. You and Alise sort through everything in order to sell some of it off to the mages guild for spending money. Alise accidently drops a potion right before you go to sell the stuff off. Once at the guild the only one who seems to want the stuff is a lowly guild member named Melissa. Seeing no harm in selling off the dusty tomes of your uncle, you take the deal. Upon returning home Alise is h0rny and it plays out like in the SS scenes.

Episode 2: Hale and Hearty - Follows the side quests related to the Hale Sisters. Both are recruited in the "good" way, though for consistencies sake might be better to have Trisha abducted and held in Wimborn so its all nice and local. 

Episode 3: Cali and Chloe - Follows Cali and Chloe’s side quests. Its starts out following Cali's side quest to reunite her with her family, but instead of going to the village only to fight bandits and return to wimborn and fight more bandits, you simply climb the chain of command starting at wimborn then hit the big forest hideout that tells you the general area where Cali came from. Also in this camp are Chloe (since she was running around the forest anyway and Tia). You drop Cali off with her parents and she rejoins you later, and then you focus on helping Chloe and doing her side quests. I don't really know what to do with Tia, but maybe helping her helps you in the future somehow?

Episode 4: Ingredient gathering - This and episode 6 are the only episode that didn't write themselves and required creative liberties. Instead of having the MC actively work with Melissa by giving her a fairy (presumably so she can get magic essence) and a taurus girl fit for milking, I had the idea that Melissa has the MC off getting all the ingredients to prepare the Taurus girl herself and requisitions Maple be assigned to her. Kida filler, but it is explained that melissa only gets these ideas from the books you sold her.

Episode 5: The Dark Side of Gorn - Follows the main quest of same name and results in you sending chloe to assist Ayda. I figure Ivran's female name should be something similar like Iveranne or something. Also while you staying in gorn a certain beastkin cat woman challenges you in the bar and by the end of the episode you recruit her same as in game.

Episode 6: The Raid on the Farm - Like I said creative liberties. After Maple goes missing from the slavers guild, the MC gets wind of illegal/shady activity in an old farmhouse outside of town and decides to investigate. Once there he finds and rescues maple and a taurus girl who are being used to produce milk and magic essence. After which both are placed in your care.

Episode 7: To Amberguard - Follows the main quest related to Amberguard (So the Drow are Twilight?) and the recruitment of Ayneris up until the investigation of the underground city. Instead of wanting two elven slaves for keeps she just wants to watch how the other kinds of elves get down and dirty and Ivranne and Ayneris are in your possession so ... Smexy Time! with a hint of voyeurism.

Episode 8: The Lost City - Follows the MC’s Exploration of the underground city. Standard Action-adventure episode with exposition about history and lost knowledge and foreshadowing tossed in.

Episode 9: Trouble in Frostford - Follows the main quest of the same name with Zoe and the Spriggan girl (can't be bothered to think of a name right now) being recruited.

Episode 10: The Southern Treason prt1 - Follows the first half of the final main quest. Finishes after you spare Gorthor.

Episode 11: The Southern Treason prt2 - Finishes with Hade and Melissa escaping after Melissa threatens Alise with a knife.

Episode 12: Aftermath - Mage guild exposition that leads into the plot of S2 and recruitment and befriending of Ayda.

The reason I let Melissa get away is cause I have an idea of how to redeem her (and posthumous to hade to some extent) while tying into the mysterious alien final boss. Though such ideas would only be explored in the second and third seasons that I am also writing up ideas for. Ultimately, the goal is to have the MC collect a harem that is representative of all the races and then face the final boss in the show's finale.

If you can think of episodic stories that ultimately conclude with the recruitment of the following races that are unaccounted for in the base game: Arachna, Beastkin Bunny, Beastkin Fox, Beastkin Tanuki, Centaur, Demon, Dragonkin, Goblin, Halfkin Bunny, Halfkin Cat, Halfkin Tanuki, Harpy, Lamia, Nereid, Orc, Scylla, Seraph, and Slime, then feel free to share. Heck even just character archetype ideas could help.

Though I will say that I already have an idea behind a lot of them already like the Arachna, Centaur, Demon, Goblin, Harpy, Lamia, Nereid, Scylla, and Slime are already an integral part to the going story of S2 and I already have an episodic story for the Orc slot, so I am sorry if I ultimately ignore your idea and use mine in this hypothetical anime adaptation of an indie hentai game. 

So what do you think? does this sound good or nah? Is there any mods that could fit nicely into this story?

I already had to make my starting slave a Taurus for the laboratory quest, and there are no NPC dark elves. So my last chance is to somehow find whichever game version had Ivran as a dark elf and use that.

I know there are in-game methods for changing things like the grade and height of a slave, but I found it to be a general pain sometimes with the magic toxicity of potions or the wait time. I also didn't like the fact that that my favorite slaves with favor traits  are considered by the game to be unalterably fugly outside of temporal beauty pots and kimono.

 It may be an impertinent question, but does anyone know of an alternative program, site, or tool that would help reasonably view/edit the save files? I know it can be opened in notepad++, but I can't discern a thing in that jumbled mess like that and don't know if it can be edited.

I was looking at the available versions to download the game on itchio and sample.
strive-for-power-win64-public.zip
338 MB
Version 35
strive-for-power-win32-public.zip
338 MB
Version 62
so the 32-bit version is more advanced?
