Content

If you haven't read the newest chapters (94-96), you might want to read those first before you vote. A little different this time because you can vote for more than one item, but there can only be one winner! And this time there's no "Let the author pick" option, so ya'll in control. What you pick here has the power to simply add a little flavor, be a non-event, or to wildly alter the course of the story. So choose wisely.  

Katia just received a fan box. What will Katia get?

uh doesn't seem like the polling works

Ligma

Spit out my water when I saw pregnant. Wtf are you trolling us like how can we not choose that.

Netveiwer

I had to backbout to my unlocked post page and vote without opening the post for it to regester

tobias merz

LOL pregnant, please don‘t. Well it would be hilarious if the dungeon just takes Carl’s DNA without consent. But wow, that ain’t a place for a child.

David Burchfield

One day per use to once per five minutes would let her level it crazy fast.

Curtis Miller

This is the dungeon. The question isn't so much who but WHAT the father is. She's not human anymore so who says the father is?!

Curtis Miller

Also if pregnant wins please do another poll for what the baby is. It'll be worth it just for the comments section below the poll

Ethan Norton

Can I change my vote to cool down decreases for rush? That would be sick

dinniman

I think you can unvote and change. *I* can for my own vote, but I don't know if that's because it's my poll.

J Aughenbaugh

I feel like there should be more than one upgrade in the box simply for the "first" achievement of that nature, as well as the fact that it was the #2 spot instead of lower down the list. Maybe the top 2 choices from your poll?

The Lost Pages

Hmmm.... can she "wear" the dune buggy? If so she should totally get a dune buggy.

ZH

Or copy the train plow and make herself into a spiked plow that wraps around the Dune buggy. Love it.

dinniman

She's definitely getting more than this. She earned this box before all the major shit went down.

Adam Barnes

Why did 38 people so far choose pregnant!? What the absolute fuck!?

David K. Storrs

Matt, I said this in Discord but I'm copying it here because I'm not sure how much you read the Discord. Please, please, please do not do the 'pregnant' option. There is no way it works out well. First, having the fans send her a pregnancy is literally rape. She is being impregnated without her consent. Second, unless it's a magic pregnancy and she swells up and then has the kid in the span of ten minutes, she's going to be sidelined for a long period of time and the other characters are going to need to bend their choices around protecting her. Lots of IRL fans have been bitching about how she's useless and a leach. She's finally starting to grow a spine, become effective, and develop agency. This would take all of that away. Third, you're talking about a baby in the middle of a live-action snuff film. That is going to be hugely traumatic for the kid. Maybe that's not shown onscreen and ends up only as fridge horror, but it's still there. Fourth, it would be a massive tone shift. The focus of the story until now has been on a band of companions and friends struggling to survive by their wits and the skin of their teeth. Introduce a baby and the story is suddenly going to be a band of companions trying to keep a kid alive. Either that or the kid gets conveniently killed, lost, or magically ages into a useful character...which defeats the purpose of having a baby when the character could have simply been introduced the normal way. Again, please, please, *please* remove the pregnancy option.

David K. Storrs

I know, right? "Hey, let's have the in-universe fans make her pregnant without her consent. That's totally not rape!"

dinniman

I understand this concern, and I was a little worried about it too, but I honestly don't want to reveal my contingency plan if this gets chosen. However, I promise it would be just about the opposite of everything you fear. Including--especially--your fear about her agency in the matter. It'll be used as an opportunity to add hope to the story.

Jordan

I admit I voted pregnant before reading the last of chapters because I wanted her gone since she was dull, but changed my mind after reading them.

Finn Ryan

To everyone who is voting for the backpack, isn't that the same as her inventory?

Ethan Norton

I feel like pregnancy would be funny for a chapter or two but I would end up hating it in the end. I actually think it could fully ruin the story depending on how it is handled.

David K. Storrs

The presumption is that she can put literal tons of stuff in it and then equip the backpack. It's a way to gain lots of mass quickly without using the cobbled-together system that Carl invented.

Kingtie

Can pregnant mean that she can shift a smaller part of her body into a smaller person? Like little gnomes made from essence/ weight?

Jake White

Why are so many people voting for the plain and boring option? Woohoo~ She can spam her charge and will have a shield/baton. Both of which she could learn to make out of metal that she's carrying. She won't have the 5m cooldown, but I doubt she'll be spamming it like that. Pregnant!? Are you kidding me? Come on everyone! Have you not considered what it means for a doppelganger to be carrying another body/flesh inside of itself!?!?! The consequences and possibilities are ridiculously entertaining. The dune buggy would be an interesting tool all around, though simple and straightforward. Another pet? As loathe as I am to the idea of having another pet around, if she has the pet carrier in her backpack, can she not meld with her pet, gaining more fleshy mass and potentially a weapon that can level up as she kills stuff with it!? Whoever voted for the +10 stat potion option should lose their ability to vote <.<

David K. Storrs

There's a discussion a bit farther up about the 'pregnant' option and why it might be problematic, both morally and narratively.

Adam Barnes

The +10 stat potion option is there for varieties sake, with the addition that if they make it to a safe room, the level up and potion could boost her Con to 100 and narratively that could be interesting because reaching 1pp means special player ability.
