Devious Interests 0.924

Description
Devious Interests (or DIN for short) is a mod aimed at integrating Devious Devices into the world of Skyrim by making its inhabitants aware of someone wearing them - being restrained now affects the player and the world around them in various ways, while providing the means for her to get out of (or get into even more) trouble!

 

Talking to other characters while wearing visible restraints causes them to comment on your situation and they may also decide to help or hinder you in some way. And if it isn't the other denizens of Skyrim that are putting you in a rather devious predicament, then it might your own self! You ought to keep your arousal in check, lest you end up losing control and binding yourself with the restraints you have found in various containers during your travels. And to make matters even more complicated, you may just throw away your precious and rare restraint keys in the process too! Of course unless a life in restraints is appealing to you, you may have to resort to other, unconventional methods to get them to come off. However if you do decide for the life in restraints, you'd do best to manage how comfortable exactly you get in them and learn to live with all of the consequences too!

 

The mod has many features and most of them have configurable parameters. Check out the detailed feature description and the mod configration menu for Devious Interests to learn more about them.

 

Until v1.0 releases, Devious Interests is considered an open beta. It's feature complete, however issues, errors and unintended outcomes may still happen and should be expected and treated accordingly. If you have come across any such issues or have ideas on how to improve the mod, please post them in the support thread.

 

Features
Content Toggles - Mod content that features implied or actual non-consensual acts or acts of dubious consent, and content that involves animals or creatures can be enabled/disabled in the mod configuration menu. Such content is disabled by default, and by enabling them, you are consenting to be subjected to them.

 

Configurable Restraints - You can select which restraint item types you do and do not want equipped by the mod and it will respect your choices as much as possible in every given situation. Some basic restraints like cuffs, collars, blindfolds, gags and armbinders cannot be disabled in order to let the mod keep a healthy pool of restraints to always draw from.

 

Arousal - Arousal can contribute to the chances of certain event outcomes. The threshold at which and actor is considered aroused and the impact share of arousal is configurable. By default, wearing any restraints also contributes to a faster arousal gain.

 

Restraint Visibility - Some restraints can be hidden under clothes and armor, thus others won't notice the player wearing them. Restraints that cannot be hidden include heavy bondage items, head restraints and collars.

 

Restraint Comments - NPCs the player interacts with have a chance to comment on any visible restraints the player is wearing. Can lead to other events, such as:

• unlocking one of the player's restraints
• giving her a random minor item or restraint key
• activating her vibrating plugs or piercings
• stealing her gold or keys
• locking additional restraints on her
• having sex with the player
• reporting the player to the guard
• engaging the locks on the player's restraints, if lock manipulation is enabled for Devious Devices

 

Gag Speak - A gagged player has a configurable success chance (influenced by her arousal) to be understood by other characters. Behaves similarly to restraint comments and shares the same outcomes.

 

Bondage Offer - When the player is not wearing any restraints, there is a chance that NPCs will approach her with an offer of tieing her up and taking her keys in exchange for gold. The more severe bondage the player chooses, the more she is rewarded for it. The player can also decline, in which case NPCs may decide to tie her up anyway.

 

Bondage Addiction - Wearing restraints uninterrupted for a long time causes the player to develop a bondage addiction. She gets small bonus effects after the first few days as she is getting comfortable being restrained, but after the 7th day, she becomes addicted which causes her to suffer negative effects when not wearing any restraints. Bondage addiction fades at a slow rate when the player is not wearing any restraints. Having sex will temporarily alleviate the negative effects of not fulfilling the bondage addiction.

 

Restraints and Keys In Loot - The player has a chance to find restraints and keys when searching containers, defeated enemies or pickpocketing them off unsuspecting NPCs. A toggle allows for the player to also become unwilling to drop any restraint items she is carrying (except when selling them to merchants) and with sufficient arousal, will cause her to automatically pick up restraints she finds in containers. Additionally, you can adjust when and where keys can be found - when the player is restrained, when is she is not restrained or always, regardless of her being restrained. And you can also set wheter it's more likely for keys to drop in dungeons or everywhere else, with the option of keys only spawning in dungeons or outside of them.

 

Unlock Help - The player can ask characters for help in unlocking the restraints she is wearing. Most people can only unlock punishing restraints (gag, blindfold, heavy bondage) and they also may refuse to help or end up jamming the locks in the process. Citizens cannot unlock more complex heavy restraints, you need to turn to the guards for that. Blacksmiths can unlock every sort of restraint, however they need to be payed for their services.

 

Crime and Jail - The player can get out of arrests by accepting to get bound by guards or by having sex with them. Both actions reduce/eliminate the player's bounty while allowing her to retain stolen items and getting that specific guard off her tail for a while. The player will get bound and gagged in jail, making escape attempts more difficult. Upon serving her sentence, these restraints may or may not be unequipped by the guards.

 

Fast Travel - Fast travel can be disabled when wearing heavy bondage items or a blindfold.

 

Sleep Naked - The player can be set to undress before sleeping. Sleeping in the nude affects the chances of certain events.

 

Sleep Bondage - An aroused enough player has a chance to find herself tied up after waking up from sleep. Other events like Gold Theft or Key Theft may also happen in addition. Sleep bondage will not happen in safe places, like player homes.

 

Stripping - An aroused enough player has a chance to strip naked and refuse to dress up for a configurable ammount of time. Stripping cannot happen when the player's arms are restrained. If the player slept naked, there is a chance for her to refuse to dress up for a while when she awakens.

 

Masturbation - An aroused enough player has a chance to masturbate on the spot if she cannot contain her lust anymore. Masturbation cannot happen when the player's arms are restrained.

 

Prostitution - The player can offer herself to NPCs in exchange for gold or restraint keys. Offering to have bound sex increases the reward and the success chance of the attempt. NPCs have a chance to decline the player's advances or even actively hinder her by reporting her to the guard or locking her in a chastity belt. After the deed is done, NPCs have a configurable chance to pay or not pay the player for services rendered, in which case an Intimidate/Persuade check needs to be passed by the player. Failing to convince them can have further consequences.

 

Free Use - Requires non-consensual content to be active. Nearby NPCs have a chance to use the player if they are aroused enough. Afterwards, they might decide to lock restraints on the player or toss a gold coin at her feet in mockery. If the player is wearing a chastity belt and has a chastity key in her inventory, NPCs will use it to unlock the belt and put it back on the player once they are done with her.

 

Cum Inflation - Having vaginal sex with males causes the player's belly to inflate to a configurable size and deflate after a configurable ammount of time. The more inflated her belly gets, the bigger movement speed penalty will the player suffers. Wearing a vaginal plug will prevent deflation.

Simple Slavery Plus Plus - The player has a configurable chance of being sent to the slave auction upon getting arrested or instead of being released from jail

 

Recommended Mods

Alternate Start - Live A Deviant Life Lich Edition - The bound alternate start options synergize very well with Devious Interests, allowing you to interact immediately with the functionality my mod provides, while simultaneously giving you a bit of a challenge upon starting a new game

Sexual Persuasion - The "sex-for-discount" feature plays nicely into further integrating SexLab and Devious Devices into the world of Skyrim, thus complementing Devious Interests. The mod is also aware of the player wearing chastity belts.
