**Softness**

**An introduction**

Welcome, dear reader, to the world of Softness, a new story that shall take us all together in a journey of discovery and healing….

At least, that is the poorly put together plan, I write this knowing well my last attempts at interactive fiction have not been well thought out, popular, or even finished. And yes this may be just another impulsive experiment thrust forward by a restless mind, but I guess that’s how things work out here in the web.

I cannot promise this won’t crash and burn like before, but I can at least give you the promise that there are actual notes about characters and world building to work off rather than completely playing it by ear.

My plan is to create submissions like this every **1-2 weeks**, entries will be short, from a couple of paragraphs to a page or two depending on the scene.

As for you, our beloved participants, every entry will end with a prompt, ranging from giving a selection of actions for our characters to perform, asking you to make questions or think of what to say next. Even help in populating this world.

**Each prompt will have its own guidelines but in general:**

1.  You can make your suggestion as long as you want
2.  If you can’t think of anything or prefer what someone else has said, reply to them showing your support.
3.  Depending on the type of prompt, a combination of all suggestions will be used or the most popular post will win; in case of ties a winner will be randomly selected.
4.  This will be a cross-platform project, to get as many eyes on it as I can, so you may end up seeing prompts from other websites chosen.

Before going into our first segment and prompt, **DISCLAIMER**:

**This is an adult story with a core focus on BDSM themes and hyper kinks; other stuff may pop up as time goes on but be aware things may get messy.**

And without further ado, welcome, to Softness:

Our first view over the grand metropolis that is the city of Silvapolis pictures it as a colorful land full of life, populate by every kind of mammal from each corner of the world, a capital city worthy of its title as “The Great Haven”.

But one should know, life is full of hardships, and even a haven like this houses its share of hard truths and unfair twists. As such we find ourselves seeing the world through the bleary eyes of a fur down on his luck as he tries to drown his sorrows.

A soul named Elliot Bowen, but exactly what shape this soul takes, is not as clear…

**PROMPT:** We’ve met out first character in this vast city, but _what_ is he?

Give us your choice for a species (Mammals only)
