Handbook of Erotic Fantasy: Combattante (Patreon)

One of my favorite things about this Patreon is the opportunity it provides for interactivity. The monthly polls and pinup votes keep this comic fresh, moving the Handbook in directions that Laurel and I might not have picked on our own. Coming out of the TTRPG world, these are exactly the kinds of curveballs that keep gameing interesting. I mean sure, it’s smart to go into a story arc with a rough outline, but the ability to abandon your plan and do the thing that other people find interesting is where the magic of interactive storytelling lies. 

Unfortunately for Fighter, that interactive magic doesn’t seem to care for a manly physique.

“I sure hope we haven't seen the last of Femme Fighter!”

“Drat, I rather liked femme-fighter.”

“Noooo! Not Femme Fighter!”

After the events of the Hot Springs of the Gratuitous Nymph, there was an outpouring of distress over the sudden loss of the comic’s blonde bombshell. And so, given Fighter’s sudden and explosive return to voluptuousness in today’s Handbook of Erotic Fantasy, I hope that the lesson is clear. We’re always listening to the voice of the community, and your interactive powers go well beyond the monthly polls. 

Chin up though, Femme Fighter! You’re a fan favorite! Besides which, you’ll have plenty of opportunity to re-reclaim your lost manhood in the next arc. Wishcraft is powerful stuff after all. And didn’t the outro text to The Hot Spring Episode mention something about a sequel? Let’s see… Ah! Here’s the line: “If you wish to continue the story, and if your PCs are prepared for a planes-hopping adventure, you may refer to Adventure 3D: Harem of the Freaky Efreeti, available wherever skeevier gaming products are sold.” Doesn’t that sound promising? Surely those famously kind-hearted inhabitants of the City of Brass will be willing to listen to reason.

Questions arise though. What must the ladies of Team Bounty Hunter do to win a wish? Will this mercurial Efreeti pervert its intent? Who else might stand in their way? And will Magus wind up wearing a belly dancer outfit?
