The Monster Girl Situation

So, I frequently get questions about what monster girls will make it into Harem Collector. I often respond with "maybe" or "wait and see" but here's the thing- I'm not interested in the vast, vast majority of monster girls, from the encyclopedia or elsewhere. But hey, some of them are nice, and I've already said that there will be a slime girl at point.

There are many problems with implementing monster girls, though- they need to exist as 3DCG mods, and I need to find or commission a sprite to match. Because of this, I'm not going to be going the extra mile to put a given monster girl in the game unless I feel very motivated. Very little of this applies to Fairy Side, though, MagicWhiteLady might have her own priorities.

So, let's run down- I'll list off the primary monster girl varieties and tell you the chances that they're going to appear in a Harem Collector game. If I don't mention one here, the answer is probably "I don't care one way or another, so my apathy probably means no". If there's something specific you'd like to inquire about, stick it in the comments and I'll get back to you.

Alraune, Mandragora, etc: I don't plan to. I don't have anything against alraune but if I'm going to put a plant-girl-type in the game, it's probably going to be a dryad and pass on the predatory aspect of the alraune.

Interestingly, the Monster Girl Encyclopedia wiki describes the alraune's  disposition as "voluptuous". I'm not certain if it's "voluptuous" or "disposition" that's the problem, but one those words doesn't mean what you think it means.

Arache, Driders, etc.: I have a theory: Anyone who thinks that spider/girl hybrids are hot were actually born on Antarctica and have never seen an actual spider. Like, god damn. They're literally the single most alien, horrific things ever  and some guys want to put their dicks in one, as long as it has tits. I mean, look:

Every time I see this, I throw up in my mouth a little.

Cancer: Ugh, no. A girl shaped like a tumour? Forget it, I mean, how insensi-

Oh. OH. It's a crab.

...No.

Centaurs: Hmm, maybe. One of my earliest video game crushes was May from Shining Force 2. The question then becomes, would the girl's pussy be in an anatomically correct position for a girl, or a horse? Probably the former, but I might change my mind. So, there will probably be a female centaur at some point, but not in the first installment of the series. Also, the chances of a centaur being in Project Norn are high.

Classic Elementals: Elementals were in the "no" zone for awhile. Slyphs and Nereids are covered by the Monster Girl Encyclopedia already, so there's not much to say there except that they can be hot. It's also not hard to think of a sexy fire elemental without it being a salamander or dragon or whatever.

The problem arises because you need the complete set. I want to put a set of classic sexy elementals in Harem Collector. However, the question is how to do a cute earth elemental, without being lazy doing the "plants = earth" thing. Dirt and rocks, however, aren't terribly sexy. Or even feminine.

The solution I came up with? Gems and precious stones. Observe:

Demons: The Monster Girl Encyclopedia lists a number of different demon girls, with varying degrees of sexiness. If you read the lore in-game, there will obviously be demon girls of several varieties. Some of the demons are dudes though- and I know that's mostly been what's in the game so far. But there will be demon girls, and even in the first installment, too.

Dragons: Dragons will play a large role in Harem Collector, but I don't know how likely they are to show up as sexy girl dragons. If I feel like it, one or two might show up in later installments of the series, but it's not a priority.

Dryads: The chances of a Dryad showing up at some point in Harem Collector and Project Norn both are very high. I don't have any plans at the moment, but I like Dryads, they're sexy tree ladies, and that's awesome.

Dullahan: I don't see the appeal in having sex with a headless girl. So, no. Which is too bad, I can't imagine it would that hard to implement in 3DCG given the number of guro mods.

Fairies: As you can tell from Fairy Side, the fae are going to play a big role in the setting. In terms of actual small pixie-type creatures, my main problem is the limited possibilities. Your basically have the pixie giving the Hero's dick a full-body massage sort of thing, or bukkake.

Gazebo: YES. HELL YES. There will a gazebo girl at some point, and it'll be AWESOME.

Ghost: I've said there will be a ghost girl in the game at some point, and that point is soon.

Goblin: I'm not 100% sure what I'm going to do concerning goblins. I'm definitely going to stick to my policy of no loli and nothing that can be construed as loli, and that might reduce the appeal for some guys. So, this one is a "maybe".

Golem: Depending on what part of "golem" is important to you, there may already be something in the works to satisfy you. There will be "artificially creature girls that you can also fuck" but I don't know about anything more true to the actual golem legend, or the Monster Girl Encyclopedia version.

Harpy: They might appear as monsters, but probably not as harem girls. Those bird legs and wings instead of arms kind of weird me out.

Kitsune: Very likely. I don't have any plans as of yet, but they'll probably appear in part 2.

Lamia, Snake-girls, etc:  Even as I was about to say "not likely", Nekochan is standing over my shoulder talking about how awesome Bleu was in the Breath of Fire series. She's nagged me into including stuff before, so I won't say "never".

Like-Like: It might be funny to have this girl, who is just a naked girl with a mouthful of weird teeth and the disturbing shade of pink skin, that just hangs around in a dungeon nomming on shields all day. Maybe she can block a door, and you have to give her a shield to proceed, and if you didn't bring one extra, oops, sorry Therese.

Matango: Not as such... The chances are high that a fuckable Mycon Queen will appear in a later game, but not for the first Harem Collector game.

Mimics: The concept of opening a treasure chest with a girl inside and having sex with her amuses me (You received "Sexy Time"!), but that's probably not the same thing.

Modrons, Drelb, Thought-Eaters, Wolf-in-Sheep's-Clothing, etc.: Noah Moshing's recipe for comedy: Take one (1) obscure D&D monster. Turn into cute girl as parody of the whole monster girl encyclopedia thing. Serve while hot.
Ogre: Ogres in HC are already pretty standard Ogres. It might be fun to have female ogres actualy be sexy later, but I don't think the Hero will actually fuck one.

Orcs: The whole orc thing has been gone over in Harem Collector, so, no..

Owlbear: I promise you there will be an owlbear girl, but only because it'll be funny.

Slimes: You just skipped down here after reading the title, didn't you?

Trolls: Trolls will probably make it in, just so I can make fun of Homestuck more.

Vampires: Kind of in a weird place right now, actually. MagicWhiteLady and I both want to use vampires in our games, but we've yet to sit down and actually figure out what canon vampirism is. So, yes, it will happen, in what form though? Read and find out. 

Were-[blank]: [Redacted]

Yuki-Onna: Very high. Very, very likely to happen. It might not be a legitimate "ghost" but more "cute ice fairy or spirit or something" though.

Zombies: Yuck.
