Planning Bangkok

Just game across this game on the TFGames site. I really enjoyed playing it. It's great you get to help choose the background of your character. As well as different possible kinks/fetishes to help round out the personality. So I think this game is off to a very nice start. Maybe you can have the hypnotist implant a suggestion or two to the agent to perform something kinky that he would like her to do. Perhaps send photos to him later. Btw, will there be a description of what he does to her during those sessions (other than hints with the graphics along the side) with her? Or since she is under the trance she will never know? Or is that only for Patreon folks?

I want agent to capture the target without help and question about the terror funding network. Yes, I spoke with Crushstation and he liked my idea.

Honestly a bit of difficulty would be amazing. Make it hard to get started, such that the player has to utilize every feature and aspect in the game in order to balance a set of variables. Ie not getting caught, paying rent, getting clients, not getting hurt, gaining experience, searching for intel. some level of risk vs reward too. You want features to be important for both the mission and you character, and not just there to look at and test out. Have consequences for many decisions and make it such that the player has to think carefully rather than spam clicking to get to content. You want skills to serve a purpose and for players to only be able to prioritize a couple skills at first, then growing into a master spy with many other skills, assets, and contacts. Is this already whats in mind, or something completely off target? @crushstation

Actually i'd like to see something like a pregnancy system, it's said to the agent once that regular birth control should do the trick, but what'll happen if she doesn't take them or she doesn't get some. Also it should have consequences for her to get pregnant, like forced by "boss" to abort the baby and psychic problems doing it... somehting like that... I'd also like to see a drug addiction route, one thought possibility is that the "boss" in bankok want's to get the agent addictet so he can controll her better or he simply does it with all his whores? ;) In your origin-story you can chose to try drugs, that might be a thing to start this event or make it easier to get addicted... (this should be considered to lead to a possible bad end)

I would like to see stuff like Lesbian clients to make use of the bisexual trait and also ladyboys/trans because THAILAND please.

Nothing says Bangkok undercover mission like being able to play as an asian agent and accosted by gross old white sex tourists.

I don't know how realistic our crabby creator is trying to be with the the Bangkok thing, but if our agent is street hooking, it will be a death wish to come into the city. Prostitution is illegal in Thailand, so there's massive work arounds to circumvent the law. More than likely our agent will have to seek employment working with a bar, bathhouse, karaoke joint, or massage parlor if the story is to stay culturally correct. A foreign lady blatantly selling herself on the street will end up in a Thai prison hella fast.

Wow... great writeup! Covers a lot of my thoughts I wasn't able to put into writing. I especially like the idea of the rival agency, and the target's characteristics being based on your own character.

KGB doesn't exist, but SVR is an external intelligence agency.

This is definitely something I like in the sense that it’s potentially a more permanent choice. Breast implants can be removed pretty easily, but transplants to the breasts or lips would be much more difficult to reverse, meaning that even after the mission is over there’s still those physical traces of time as a prostitute.

As it is usual for me, I have multiple ideas and am expanding on them progressively in my mind. I will try to keep things focused though. Also, people have already mentioned some of the things I will discuss, but I wanted to give my take on them as well. In a previous and similar post long time ago, I said I want to see a realistic portrayal of the criminal underground. Things should not be roses and sunshine, quite on the contrary. That being said, I do not expect the game to be just a pile of abuse thrown at the agent. It should be both persistent AND justified. I will start from the very beginning with how the agent enters the club. I would divide prostitution generally in three groups. - Street prostitution – whether with a pimp or not - Establishment one – brothel and such - Call girl/Escort Each of them has representation in every country (more or less). We should not also forget what is the ultimate goal of the agent – get the bad guy; and the only link is that he likes a certain type of girl (as a side-note, have you thought about portraying the bad guy based on the traits of the agent? If she is into older guys, he is older for example) and she is it. To get to that link, she needs to work at the titty-bar. In a sense, she could be just a topless waitress and she should draw his attention. What I think would be good is to actually give each possible job different pros and cons in regard to the mission and the agent would choose based on them. I will start from the bottom and throw some ideas regarding each of them. 1. Street prostitution – The idea here would be to seek work in an area controlled by the same gang that runs the brothel. The agent might intentionally let herself by taken by them and “forced” to work. She could achieve that by trying to solicit a tourist. She might either be kidnapped by a pimp and forced to work OR be extorted for protection money. Could do both at the same time. a. Pros i. Significantly less suspicion as the gang was “forcing” her to work AND/OR she is not going straight to her goal. ii. Immediately access to cheap drugs iii. Experience and contacts at the low level of the criminal life in Thailand iv. Lower maintenance as her looks and appearance would be of less importance. b. Cons i. The agent will have to deal with long time without contact with the agency while she is being “broken-in”. And afterwards contact will be harder and less frequent. ii. The work there will be grindier and would leave less free time slots for the agent to do other things. Also efficiency would be more important than quality. iii. Cheap drugs would be more addictive and effects lasting for shorter time, also pimps are very likely to use drugs to enforce obedience. iv. Physical abuse would be much more likely from pimps / competing prostitutes / johns. v. Once a street whore, high-class escorting should be out of the question as she would have certain “rep”. vi. Much more physically and mentally taxing. c. Few additions regarding that path i. Might force direct confrontation with the police as there is no organization standing “behind her”. Also if she is arrested for soliciting she might be “sold” to a pimp by the police or extradited which would fail the mission. ii. Ultimately her goal would be to “graduate” to working in the titty-bar. Since she would be a street whore, her only option in the bar would be of a prostitute as she already is one. 2. The titty-bar – The direct approach. She could pretend that she is out of money (the original script) and in need of work. She could start as a topless waitress and progress through stripper and prostitute. I see this as the “moderate” path where things are not going to extremes. a. Pros i. Gets her in the bar directly. ii. Structured work schedule with more free time around noon and early afternoon. iii. Moderate level of suspicion from your employers AND physical/mental pressure to “do more”. iv. The physical and mental abuse (if the mamasan decides the agent deservers it) would be only behind closed doors and not in the open. b. Cons i. The work schedule would mean she is expected in the evenings and nights and might miss opportunities if they overlap with her schedule. 3. VIP section of the bar – This should be earned by good behavior in the bar OR by exceptional interview. I see it as the Callgirl/escort, but not entirely. Frankly I think pure callgirl/escort would not work as it contradicts the agent’s goal to be at the bar where she is waiting for her mark. Still she might get some outside work by gaining connections (she might even choose whether to pay her mamasan’s share or not with possible consequences). She would spend her shifts entertaining clients in the VIP lounge. a. Pros i. High payment and easier working shifts and she would be servicing less clients. ii. The abuse would be mainly mental (unless it is a BDSM scene) in nature as losing the job (and the status that comes with it) would be a good enough bargaining tool to enforce certain level of obedience. iii. Connections to important figure in both underworld, politics, police, etc. iv. Free access to quality drugs from her patrons (longer lasting, less negative side effects). b. Cons i. The quality of her service would be more important than quantity. If she fails to deliver, she might be demoted. ii. Would require high maintenance – hairstyle, makeup, etc. iii. Might become more recognizable as she would be seen with more important people. iv. Suspicion would be harder to maintain low. Another aspect I would add to that is the possibility of promotion/demotion/overlap between the different jobs. Every person is perceived in one way or another based on their occupation. This could be reflected by fellow prostitutes, clients and pimps (even fellow agents!!). If the agent starts at say middle (stripper in the bar) and becomes a VIP escort, the other escorts might react in different ways than compared if she starts as a VIP escort. Some would be jealous other might respect you more if they had followed similar path. Getting demoted should also have negative consequences. For example, if the agent starts as VIP escort and becomes “common” stripper, the other “common” strippers might mock her for her failure and thinking she was better than them. Also the mamasan might not change the suspicion level to the one appropriate for “common” stripper and keep the same watchful eye she had for the VIP escort. On the topic of overlap, if the agent needs money, she might ask the mamasan for more work and be sent to the streets for extra work or be called in the VIP lounge for a kinkier show than what the normal vip escorts would do. Think of it as special events that can happen. On the aspect of the agent “losing herself” in her role. I like that a lot. I think it should be related to her kinks. For example, if the agent spends a lot of time with clients that suit her own needs, she might get into it more and more. In contrast, when she is forced to do things that she dislikes (have you thought of adding “turnoffs”?) she might suffer mental breakdown. If I relate it to my idea for the “jobs” above, for example, if the agent likes rough sex, the streets might suit her, while agent that likes older men might find the elite clientele of the VIP lounge more to her liking. Different types of crime come hand in hand. I think this should be integral part of the whole game. You can link different activities to different “jobs” as well. For example, she might be asked to smuggle drugs, but that is more likely to happen if she works the streets. If she is in the VIP lounge, she might be recorded with someone in order to extort money from him. Another aspect here is the agent being a victim of crimes herself. If she is “forced” to prostitute, that itself is a crime. Robbing her of her money seems too predictable to be interesting, but should be mentioned. If she is robbed she might be pressured to do things she would not do otherwise. For example, if she is a VIP escort and suddenly needs money, the agent might decide to work the streets for a night to get the amount, but she might be recognized and the mamasan demotes her to a common prostitute. Shooting pornography is illegal in Thailand, but I think it is a bit different than prostitution. A bit more hush-hush. I think this path should be hidden and not obtainable from the very start and should be again only an extra as her main goal is to be in the bar. As last, I would mention the possibility of rival agency. Say, the KGB wants your target for their own reasons AND/OR they discover you and force you to work for them as a double agent. Heck, you can even go as a triple agent and work for your target (if he is the perfect match for the agent based on her kinks, she might fall in love with him). A traitor in your own organization is also a possibility.

Having the management pressure her into getting work done, either by some back ally doctor if they don't care about her, or an actual hospital if they do for some reason, like her being a moneymaker and them wanting to get even more out of her. There should also be other ways to change her physical, and mental, state.

deamonmaster

Could be interesting to have her befriend a fellow prostitute, do little things to help each other out, maybe go on a little excursion together, build that relationship. Then the a valuable opportunity presents itself where she has to choose between saving her friend (getting them out of whatever situation it is) or abandoning her friend, and sticking to the mission, with consequences either way.

Jumping Johnny

Very nice ideas! Both would be EXCELLENT plotlines!

William Urquhart

Oh yeah, a relationship with a fellow stripper/hooker would be very interesting.

I personally want to see a storyline possibility where the agent meets another agent undercover except it's an agent who's posing as a client. You have the option of maintaining said agent's cover (maybe the agent that goes with you on your second LIONESS training mission) or blowing it to further your own cover. Possibility of romance here too? You come to care for each other etc. Another one that I would like is if Agent/Kate has an option of falling in love with one of her handlers fellow strippers, adds a little tension whenever her loved one is in 'trouble'. Blow your cover to help/save them? Or maintain it and let fate take its course? And if you leave them to hang... karma later? xD spitballin' here
