A consumable item given to the player by [[Minerva]]. Little is known about the effects of this item. When it is consumed, the player receives the following message:

''"You bite into the sweet, juicy peach, feeling a sensation of energy sweeping through your limbs and your mind. You feel revitalized, refreshed, and somehow cleansed."''

Minerva

2017-07-17T08:38:56Z

Wyrmclan:

A non-hostile NPC. She was recently added to the game and there is still research to be done before this wiki article is complete.

Minerva is an outworlder who got stuck in [[Mareth]] and transformed into a shark/harpy hybrid. She can be encountered in the [[High Mountain]], usually appearing every 8th visit there (see note).
First time you encounter her she will talk with you for a bit seeming relieved that you aren't a sex hungry fiend, she will ambush you and fly you over to an abyss and threatens to drop you if you have ill intentions (regardless of Corruption level). If you happen to have wings large enough to fly, your character will comment you that you could easily fly to safety if she let you go chooses to answer her instead, leading Minerva to apologize for her hostility. After either two scenes, she will ask you to follow her into tower, where you are given two options, follow or leave. Choosing to leave will say that as you return home, Minerva looks sad before heading back into her home, but if you find the oasis for the second time it gives the same options and a similar reaction as if you followed her on the first time.

Once you encounter Minerva for the fourth time, she will be accessible from Places menu by selecting Oasis Tower.

==In Game Description==

===When choosing the "Appearance" option===
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
| Minerva is a siren. She stands 8'5" with navy blue skin and a white belly, neck and inner thighs. Orange and white stripes adorn her legs, tail and back. Her head is topped with fiery red orange hair that frames her face with well kept bangs and also slide down her back in a pair of long braids. Her eyes are bright electric blue on pure black sclera. The sirens body is adorned with an expansive array of golden studs and rings, one through an eyebrow, a pair on her lips and even one in her nose. From her ears hangs large hoop earrings while a trio of studs sits higher up. Along the fin that tips her tail are a set of five gold rings linked together by a fine silver chain.

Attention-grabbing large red and orange feathered wings sprout from her back; the same feathers flow down her arms like those of a harpy. Two DD-cup sized breasts rests on her chest, they would look large on a human, but on Minerva, they appear quite average. Each breast is topped with a firm gold stud pierced nipple about half an inch thick.

Her feather-covered arms would be more at home on a harpy, but contrasts well with her well toned body. Her skin is blue and white and, though she is clothed, you can tell from how sheer her tight tube top is, that her nipples are a tender pink.

Minerva's wide hips make her waist appear thin and waspish; they sway in unison with a striped shark tail, each step accentuating her hips and tight shorts her rear. A long, pink horizontal scar mars the clean white skin across her stomach and a golden piercing adorns her navel.

Between Minerva's lightly toned legs rests all of her sexual organs; a normal vagina, and an unusually thick, sixteen-inch long anemone-like penis. The glans of that blue and pink shaft is ringed by small aphrodisiac-filled tentacles, while the base is surrounded by long tentacles as thick as fingers. Nestled against her soft thighs is a scrotum with apple-sized balls. She has a tight asshole, placed between her shapely buttcheeks, where it belongs.

Minerva has large demonic feet, each toe double-jointed and tipped with a large, black talon. Similar to her feet, her tongue also has a demonic quality, being two foot long and fully prehensile.

A white tube top and a pair of short shorts are all the siren wears for clothing.

===Interaction===

When you meet Minerva, you get the choice between six actions:
* Appearance
* Talk - Chat with Minerva
* Sex - Make love to Minerva
* Eat - Pick a [[Pure Peach]] and add it to your pouch.
* Drink - Drink water from Minerva's spring. Reduces lust and corruption (Effects on corruption possibly increase based on corruption. At 100 corruption, it is decreased by 3).
* Spar - Fight with her. 

===Appearance===
Choosing appearance displays the In Game Description of Minerva. You can choose one of the other options afterward.

===Talk===
During your conversations with Minerva she explains how she came to the world and was transformed, primarily by hanging around the Lake to eat the non-corrupt fish and being attacked by [[Shark-Girl|Shark Girls]]. Her other encounters include a battle with an [[Anemone|Anenome]] and when she later fled to the High Mountains with bands of [[Harpy|Harpies]].

Later conversations also reveal she did have a Shark Girl daughter, whom she nurtured, protected and eventually mated with repeatedly.

At some point she may ask the Champion if they would like to go flying. If they agree then later they may be allowed to become Minerva's lover/companion.

Minerva repeatedly expresses a desire to remove her corruption, but is unable to. She is continually being corrupted by, and held to the Glade's corruption reducing properties by a small demon that was implanted within her chest by the attack that caused her scar. This demon continually attempts to corrupt Minerva, forcing her to rely on the fruit and waters of the glade to sustain her sanity.

===Spar===
During sparring Minerva will sometimes begin to hum a pleasant tune. You must wait on the following turn or her next attack will instantly raise your Lust to 100, signalling your doom. This is quite appropriate for a siren.

If you spar with Minerva and win, she will give you a Pure Peach and a bag of gems (15-20) she has collected from the Harpies as a parting gift.

If you spar with Minerva and lose, she may give you a Pure Peach to help restore your strength or she may take some of your gems. Tests so far seem to indicate that she take gems if she beats you with the Siren Song but gives you a Pure Peach if she beats you in a straight physical fight.

For a player at level 27, Minerva is one of the only opponents that still provides more than a single XP per match (as does [[Izumi]]). Leveling up from 27 to 28 requires more than 400 visits to the High Mountain but it is still far better than any other region where you'll have to fight 2700 matches (plus any non-combat event you encounter) to achieve the same.

==Notes==

* Although Minerva is supposed to consistently appear every 8th visit at the High Mountain, she may on rare occasions turn up one visit earlier or later. ''(She still appears exactly every 8th visit as of 0.8.8.)''
* It is possible at some point that content may be added to purge Minerva of her corruption.
* At level 27 Minerva is the only opponent that gives you more than a single XP per fight. Sparring with Minerva gives 51 XP even at level 29. Does not happen as of 0.8.8 as "level too high" has priority over the calculation, including the additional 50 experience. This was either due to a bug in the code at the time this was written, the "level too high" check getting called at the end of the function rather than prior to the calculation or the contributor pooling experience. See the [[Corruption_of_Champions#You,_the_Hero|Hero]] page for details.
* As of version 1.0.2, Minerva is now accessible from Places menu after encountering her for the fourth time.

Gargoyle

2017-07-17T06:55:49Z

Wyrmclan: /* Rituals */

----
'''''“I... I want to rebuild the Cathedral. I know there... there’s no one to return to it, but... I don’t know. It feels like repairing the damage that’s been done would be a victory. Just a little tiny one, but still a victory.”'''''

The '''Gargoyle''' is found in the ruins of a Cathedral, of which can be discovered through the Explore option, much like other places. She is the only occurring NPC in this area.

Most of the Gargoyle's scenes are lore, but there also are numerous sex scenes, rituals that give the opportunity to adjust your stats, as well as a scene where you help her restore the Cathedral.

===Appearance===
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|'''Gargoyle''' is a gray marble statue that, through magics you can’t quite grasp, has been animated.

She stands roughly six feet tall, with a slender, girly frame. She wears no clothes, seemingly possessing no modesty at all, and uses her brutally spiked tail as a weapon. She has a cute, somewhat angular face that is very feminine. Her skin and hair are a light shade of gray, though she has solid, ruby-red eyes which glow timidly, reflecting a submissive and servile nature in the gargoyle. Her skin is cold and smooth to the touch, a consequence of her marble material, yet she is quite soft, almost squishy. '''Gargoyle''' has a pair of cute little horns upon her brow, and has bat-like wings sprouting from her back which give a gentle flap every few seconds, an unconscious gesture on her part as you stare at her. She has a long, spiked tail that curls timidly about her thighs. She has two normal human legs sculpted to end in normal human feet.

She has a pair of big, pleasingly soft D-cup breasts. They are without nipples.

She has a small yet easily stretched pussy between her legs, with a .2 inch clitoris.

She has a tight asshole between her soft butt cheeks, right where it belongs.
|}

===Encountering the Gargoyle===
On the first encounter, after breaking her chains, you will be prompted to name her. After she has been given a name, you will have to choice to give her a funny order, a carnal order, or simply to talk to her. Choosing the first option results in your character commanding her to roll over, which she immediately follows to the player's amusement, while choosing the second option causes the player to demand the Gargoyle to finger herself, which she does, yet with a cold and stern demeanor, commenting on the player's lecherousness and how it reminds her of her previous master. Her eerie, stony attitude towards the instruction repulses the player, who commands her to stop.

Upon choosing the third option, the player asks the Gargoyle why she was chained up, and the statue explains that she was abandoned there by her last owner, who grew tired of her. The player continues, asking the sculpture what happened to the Cathedral, to which the Gargoyle responds that the residents of the town believed that [[Marae]] would protect them, but their faith was misplaced. The player has the option to either ''Berate'' or ''Reassure'' the Gargoyle. Either options result in the player making known their status as the Champion of Ingnam.

Choosing to berate the Gargoyle makes the PC call out the statue on her failure to protect the Cathedral, declaring that it is her fault that the town no longer stands because of her inability to protect them, and the player leaves, commanding her to stay so he/she can use her. The Gargoyle laments as her new master leaves her, commenting solemnly on how she couldn't leave even if she wanted to.

Meanwhile, choosing to reassure her instead inspires the player's sympathy, and he/she tells the Gargoyle to leave with him/her, but the statue pleads not to ask that of her, for she is bound to the Cathedral and cannot escape. The PC understands, asking if she will be safe remaining in this place, to which she says she'll be fine as long as her Master returns, vowing she'll make the experience pleasurable for them. The PC promises to come back, heading back to camp.

===Rituals===
====First Ritual interaction====
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|You note that the sanctuary’s altar has been cleared of rubble, and a number of candles have been lit upon it. Resting atop the flat stone surface is a simple iron bowl filled with what appears to be water. Curious, you ask '''Gargoyle''' what she’s been up to.

''“Long before Master came, I watched over the parishioners and their faith. They performed strange sacraments and rituals to purify the body and dispel evils. I thought perhaps Master might someday have need of these rites, and prepared them for you. I know a ritual to purify the body, another to purify the mind, and a third that banishes evil creatures and spirits, though I warn you: cleansing the body can best be done through pain, and banishment may be as... invasive... as the possession itself. Does Master have need of these?”''
|}

====Second Ritual interaction====
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|You walk to the church’s alter, shortly followed by '''Gargoyle'''. You ask her if she’s still able to perform the church’s Rituals, to which she replies ''“Of course, Master. Do you have need of one?”''
|}

=====Mind=====
''Reduces 0.5% Corruption, inflicts 50 Fatigue, and an amount of Lust reduction. (Lust reduction needs more study.) ''

'''First Mind Ritual'''
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|You tell '''Gargoyle''' that you’ve been plagued with dirty thoughts, and would like to undo some of the corruption that’s spread to your mind. '''Gargoyle''' nods respectfully and tells you to kneel before the altar. You do so, assuming a low, supplicating stance before the tree-idol at the Cathedral’s head as the gargoyle picks up the bowl of water and raises it on high.

“Blessed is he who seeks purity,” she says, closing her eyes and bowing her head, “Blessed is he who seeks wisdom; and blessed is he who lusts after holiness and virtue before pleasures of the flesh.” '''Gargoyle''' brings the invocation to a quiet close, and rests the bowl back upon the altar. “Drink of this, Master,” she says, offering you the bowl, “and be healed of mind.”

You do so, taking a long draught of the holy water. By the time you’ve set the bowl down, you feel light-headed, as if a fog has receded from your mind. You gasp happily, able to think more clearly than you have in days. You thank '''Gargoyle''', give her a pat on the head, and head back to camp with a skip in your step.
|}
=====Body=====
''HP and sensitivity go temporarily down. (Exact amounts needs further study.)''

'''First Body Ritual'''
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|You tell '''Gargoyle''' that you could stand to reverse some of the corruption that has affected your body. With an solemn nod, she takes you to a side alcove near the altar and instructs you to spread your arms and legs. Hesitantly, you do so, and from the floor and ceiling '''Gargoyle''' produces leather straps with rough looped straps. Before you can react, she binds your arms and legs, spreading you eagle against the cold stone wall.

''“With pain comes purity,”'' '''Gargoyle''' says, so quietly you can barely hear her. ''“Prepare yourself, Master,”'' she adds, and your heart nearly skips a beat when you hear the crack of a whip behind you. Oh, shit, this is going to hu-CRACK! You see stars as white-hot pain arcs through your body, making you scream into the wall. You can feel the burning streak left across your back by the bullwhip, throbbing mercilessly in the moments before CRACK! She hits you again, throwing you forward against your bonds with the force of the blow.

Over your ragged, pained breathing, you can just hear '''Gargoyle''' chanting: ''“With pain comes purity... CRACK! With agony comes enlightenment... CRACK! Through torment comes holiness... CRACK!”'' The last crack of the whip leaves you groaning, breathless, sagging in your bonds. Somehow, though, you do feel... cleaner? Like a weight was just lifted from your heart. And you know you’re going to be thicker-skinned after that! Quietly, reservedly, '''Gargoyle''' releases you from your bonds, and you stagger into her waiting arms. She helps you over to the altar and lays you down, letting you rest after your ordeal. She stands over you, watching you pant and gasp. You suppose you could get some vengeance for her brutality – or you could be kind. What do you do?
|}

=====Banish=====
''Banishes [[Exgartuan]] from the body if present.''
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|Talking about '''Gargoyle's''' rituals, you explain that you seem to have picked up a hitchhiker in your travels and would like to rid yourself of them. She tells you to strip and brace yourself against the altar. ''“Unfortunately, as you have been invaded, so too is this a very... invasive ritual.”'' You nod your assent - you really want to get this bastard out of your system.

From beneath the altar, '''Gargoyle''' withdraws what looks like a perfectly cylindrical dildo, covered with dozens of dark, dimly-glowing blue runes. Slowly, she makes her way around you and kneels behind your giant rump. ''“Take a deep breath Master, and relax yourself. It will be better this way.”''

You try your best to relax yourself, though as soon as you make any headway, you feel an intense, invasive pressure against your pucker. You take a deep breath, grit your teeth, and force yourself to relax. The smooth holy rod slips in, spread throughout your body, creeping outward from your asshole like little tendrils of fire.

''“Do not worry, Master,”'' '''Gargoyle''' says. ''“The pain is necessary. Everything will be all right.”''

Still, you can't help but hiss in agony as the holy burn spreads through you, seeping into your vulnerable genitals and sensitive chest. Booming from within you, you hear the demon's voice: ''“Hey! What the shit is this!? What're you doing? Fucking stop, you ingrate!”''

Suddenly the holy rod jammed up your asshole makes a loud hissing sound, and withdraws. Panting, you collapse o the ground, gripping your gut, It's over, and you feel... alone. The creature within you has been absorbed and purged by the rod, which '''Gargoyle''' processed again.

Still panting and gasping from your ordeal, you notice '''Gargoyle''' looming over you, smiling. You could be a dick for all that pain she caused you, or thank her for helping you.
|}

'''Nothing'''
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|You simply lie still and try to recover from '''Gargoyle'''’s “gentle ministrations.” After a few minutes, you’ve caught your breath and, gathering your possessions, make your way out of the Cathedral without another word. Damn, you’re sore.
|}

'''Cuddle'''
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|Despite the pain she’s caused you, you know '''Gargoyle''' did it at your command – and hell, it could only have helped you. Before she can react, you reach up and pull the gray gargoyle down into a kiss, pressing firmly against her soft, cold lips. She makes a cute little gasp, but soon relaxes into your hold, allowing you to shift her weight so that she’s nearly lying atop you. You sigh contentedly and wrap your gargoyle in a tight hug, holding her close for the few minutes it takes you to recover. When you’re feeling up to it, you rustle her hair and thank her for her... gentle ministrations. If she could blush, you’re sure she would be as she looks upon you with gleaming fiery eyes. You gather your belongings and exit the Cathedral.
|}

'''Revenge'''
{| style="border: 1px solid #c6c9ff; border-collapse: collapse;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="10" border="1"
|-
|Seeing '''Gargoyle''' just standing over you, gloating, causes you to sneer and lash out. You strike her dead-center in the chest, throwing her back against the tree-idol at the church’s head. She slumps to the floor, looking meekly away from you. While she’s stunned, you gather your clothes and stagger out of the Cathedral.
|}
