The House of O - A Society for BDSM 1.0.3

Do you want to take a break from ruling over others and serve them for a change? 
Do you want to dominate your lover and make them submit to you?
Do you like lots of events?
Then this mod is for you!

 

Features

 

• Join the House of O and complete slave training.
• Find a dominant partner and submit to becoming their plaything.
• Become dominant yourself and start collecting a stable of slaves, or just keep the special one.
• Rise to the top and become the Master or Mistress of the House, enforcing your will on slaves and dominants alike.
• Explore the House of O in over 500 unique events

 

Joining the House

 

Unconventional erotic practices are not exactly forbidden, but widely frowned upon. As such the House of O does not openly recruit new members, but sends personal invitations to promising individuals. As with any secret society you need to show interest in it for someone to approach you with a careful offer. Other than that, you need only your curiosity, and a healthy interest in carnal pleasures.

 

Start a new game. Savegames that were started without the mod will not work.

 

To be able to show interest in joining, you need to be:

 

• An adult
• Neither tribal nor nomadic
• Not imprisoned
• Neither chaste nor celibate

 

Ranks

 

Rank 1 - Slave

The first few years you will spend entirely at the House and train to become a good slave.

 

Rank 2 - Servant

As a servant you are free to come and go as you please. You may be called upon to keep the House running, and maybe you will find a friend or even something more among the other servants.

 

Rank 3 - Domina / Dominus

Not everyone has what it takes, to be a dom. Many are content with staying submissive, but those who rise above enjoy all the benefits the House offers.

 

Rank 4 - Master / Mistress

The Master or Mistress oversees all the aspects of the House, but they share not their secrets in ensuring the society stays safe and prospers.

 

Powers

 

Offer Submission

Offer to become the submissive part in a relationship.

 

Craft Devices

Using plans and instructions from the House of O you‘re able to craft restraints, toys, or accessories suiting your fancy. You will additionally need to acquire tools and materials. More learned characters have a higher chance to create quality works.

 

Choose Slave Lifestyle

While all members of the House share some common tastes, everyone has their own kinks. With this power you can choose a special lifestyle trait from a list of diverse fetishes.

 

Commission Devices

Don't want to work yourself? That's what servants are for. Upon reaching rank 3 in the House, you have the option of commissioning various devices used in your Sessions, paying for them with money or society currency.

 

Dominate

What would a dominant character be without the ability to dominate others? It might take some time, but you know just how to coax a lover or spouse into submitting to you. Of course you can also make the slaves and servants at the house yours, and while a slave can only have one master, a dominant can have many slaves.

 

Hold Session

Not a society power per se, but a decision any dominant can take to start a session with their submissive lover. It will most commonly become available to you by dominating someone, but is also possible if a member of the House offers submission to you regardless whether you're a member or not.

 

Findom

Demand to manage your slave's finances and use them to their benefit ... or yours.

 

Take Private Slave

Choose among the fully trained servants and take a special private slave that is reserved for your own use. Assign proper housing and a daily duty to them, and reap the profits of an obedient minion that id fully dedicated to you.

 

Dominate Ruler

Project your dominance outside the House of O and dominate an Independent ruler into becoming your vassal. Some rules of the feudal system must be adhered, but this presents an opportunity to build your political power base without waging war.

 

Break

Some slaves are perfectly content with obeying their betters. Others must be reminded of their station every now and then. But there are those annoying few who just won't give in. Well now you have a way to make them obey, by thoroughly breaking their spirit and turning them into mindless thralls or some other entertaining and useful form.

Requirements

 

No DLCs are required, but some events do not show the intended picture if Monks and Mystics is not enabled.

Portrait Packs are recommended for more variety and prettier characters, but no features depend on them.

 

Compatibility

 

Compatible with version 3.3.3 of Crusader Kings 2. Older versions will probably cause issues, and are not supported.
Compatible with the Lesbocracy-Mod, formerly known as "School of Sappho".

 

Saves made with older versions of the mod may work, but I recommend starting a new game.

 

There may be issues with mods that add new sounds. 

Other mods should work fine.

 

Total Conversions will cause issues and crashes.

The Road Ahead

 

Crusader Kings 3 has been released, and as such my focus shifts from this wonderful game to its sequel.

 

So what will happen to the House of O?

I'll try to fix the remaining bugs whenever I find the time to do so. Although, the new game brings new opportunities, I won't abandon this project until I'm satisfied with its playability.

 

Will there be a port for CK3?
Some of the gameplay mechanics I rely on with the House of O aren't present in CK3. So porting this mod isn't a viable possibility right now. HOWEVER, I plan on starting a new project, a spiritual successor if you may. You can read about my ideas for such a mod here.
