Before I start, I would like to give praise to Wimblegurk Brigade for giving life to the Kuroinu fandom; their challenge fic responsible for the creation of several fics that have been written. After reading his challenges and the release of the sequel, I asked myself. "Hey, why not try it with the sequel?"
There are some similar rules to that of Wimblegurk:
1) No joining the Villain's side. The character must work on his own or with his own faction.
2) You can choose how many female characters you want in the pairing.
However, there are some differences.
1) The most fundamental is that unlike Wimblegurk, the characters will be villainous; not joining the villain's side doesn't necessarily mean that your character's a hero. Your goals are similar in nature, it's just that you either don't want to be bossed around or don't want to share your prize.
2) A recurring theme in Kuroinu fics (such as those proposed by Wimblegurk) is that the MCs are very action-oriented, taking the sword and being direct in the plot's progression. This is justified since the framework is similar to that of an RPG game, but I want things to be different. Instead of being a mighty warrior, the character will be a savvy manipulator, information is your main weapon and your insight of the societal structures (political, military, economic.) is without peer. Any other skillset is permitted as long as it doesn't involve combat, such as magical knowledge, supernatural power, chemical expertise etc. However, this doesn't mean that the character isn't capable of defending himself. It's a matter of preference on their part.
3) This will be a nukige, as there's a lack of lemons in this hentai fandom (ironic). Only a decent amount of plot is required, but sex scenes are to be given prominence.
Now that I've outlined the similarities and differences, here are the rules:
1) Age should be no higher than a young adult.
2) You are free to design your character however you want him to look, there's just one catch: he mustn't be muscular, or fat; average body shape.
3) The character is to be confident and not display cowardice when backed into a corner, he is always a step ahead.
Now... onto the protags.
Scion: Empress Radomira is infamous for her unbridled lust, and birthed many children as a result. She taught them at an early age about the pleasures of the flesh as it was the norm in Negramstia. You are the only son and the youngest of her brood, and her spymaster against the belligerent kingdoms. Though a prince by birth, you wanted more power and broaden your bloodline; to sow your seed with the most beautiful women the land can offer, even setting your eyes on your own family.
Disgraced magician: Once, you were the top student of the academy; the favourite of the mages and the idol of your peers. You have everything but felt it wasn't enough and you find the rules limiting, so you dabbled in forbidden arts of bending the mind and flesh; abducting a few as part of your experiments; you were caught, imprisoned and sentenced to death; yet you escaped with a great bounty on your head. You found refuge where you continue your dark work... and plot your revenge.
These are the character origins so far, I have a hard time thinking of backgrounds that makes them villainous. With that said, new origins might be added later if some people give me ideas.
There's little information provided in the sequel, so I judged that it's better to leave the story structure up to the writers.
If you're interested in doing this, feel free to PM me and I'll gladly help.
