Haven's Port - August Focus Poll

Alright! I was in desperate need of a couple of partial days off, as I ran myself down pretty badly at the end of last month. But it's past time to get things back into gear. Haven's Port, as you should all know by now, is rapidly spiraling towards being finished. My primary focus now is on the Endings. In fact, this month the hope is to get three more of them into the game! I previously chose to add The Merchant Princess ending because it was, frankly, the single most complicated one to add to the game. Knocking the hardest/longest one out first was an intentional choice on my part, since that way I was able to get a good feel for how hard the others would be. In other words, if I plan like they'll be just slightly less time consuming than that one, it should be a safe estimate ;-).

That said, there's been a slight update to the endings. I had mentioned during the last poll that I wanted to add a couple of more 'submissive oriented' endings to the game, but that I was still trying to figure out how to do that. Dom/Sub isn't really the primary focus of Haven's Port, like it is with Left Hand Magic. The split for Haven's Port was always divided on the Seductress/Nymph path basis. With the Nymph path being all about a casual sex, free use, 'ethical slut' sort of mindset. Where the Seductress path was intended to be more focused on detailed experiences instead. Quantity of sex on the other path, Quality on the other. Lots of sex everywhere and with everyone on the one. Less overall partners on the other, but with far more intricate experiences.

This, then, means there was never a Dom/Sub stat, making it hard to figure out how to offer up endings focused that way. After thinking long and hard on the problem, what I've decided to do is double up on the Faction Endings. Instead of the originally intended single faction ending for each faction, there will now be two such endings. One will focus on a more 'leader/dom' type ending, with the other focusing on a 'follower/sub' type ending.

Since I needed to start somewhere, before this poll could get a chance to run, the Leader/Dom Fleet Faction ending Will be in this build. I've already gotten a small start on it, though not much of one. Which other endings make it in are up to this poll. I'll work on them in order of popularity, much as I've been doing with the Left Hand Magic Routes. So, here are the other remaining endings:

-------

Ship's Girl

While most of The Fleet operates in the waters directly around the Haven Isles...not all of it does. Longer ranged expeditions result in time away from the Haven Isles and it's easy access to everything sex. Aboard these longer-ranged missions, there is one role that's considered extremely critical! A Ship's Girl. Somehow who is intended as a 'never unavailable' sexual relief aid for the crew. Being a Free Use Toy for an entire pirate crew can be exhausting! But very rewarding as it helps keep the crew mentally healthy on such long voyages! 

Brothel Manager

The Mistress of Acolytes and Brothel Mistress have been struggling to manage all the aspects of the Rose Brothel for some time. The Order of the Rose would like to put someone in charge of managing the Premium Rose girls. Both training them and  recruiting more!

Premium Rose Girl

In this ending, you'll ascend the ranks of the Order of the Rose in a different direction. Instead of becoming a leader for the Premium Rose Grils, you'll become one of them yourself. Reserved for their elite client list, who often have very specific or peculiar tastes you'll need to service...

Arena Champion

You've come far from your helpless origins...dare you reach for the crown? If you can dethrone Louie from the Arena, you wonder what it will mean for you? He does seem to have quite a few fangirls (and a few fanboys!) hanging around him all the time...

Note: There are two other 'endings' I'm considering. Both of which designed for a more submissive character ending. I'm still figuring out if I can actually make them work in such an open game like this one, though. So they aren't currently up for consideration.
