You are a wolf, of uncanny size and intellect. Three brave heroines have rescued you from rubble, and adopted you as their party mascot.
But this isn't the tale you think it is. In the aftermath of their adventures, the three women perform their appointed parts… and their heroic façades crack like old paint, revealing something monstrous beneath. You'll witness every argument, every desperate coupling, every draught of numbing intoxication. You can see everything. You can say nothing.
Will you save them? Will they even want to be saved?
Evangeline, the Counterfeit Knight
"Standing seven feet tall in blessed steel, Lady Evangeline brings righteous fury to the wicked! Born of distant noble blood, and trained in ancient sword-forms, she is the very pinnacle of her exotic tradition. They say she could have lived in comfort, but chose instead the wanderer's path. Truly, her nobility of spirit matches her nobility of birth!"
Evangeline is escalating the challenges the party has to face, from goblins to ogres to dragons – chasing a glory that could eclipse the rotten truth she conceals. She drinks long into the night… and in those private hours, she practices her confessions on you. She speaks with her real voice, and slurs out grim tales of her past.
Morsūl, the Sensation Witch
"The mysterious Morsūl has walked every path of magic, and emerged with wisdom beyond mortal ken! Her ways may seem strange to us common folk – but how are we to know the mind of one so close to the truth of ages? She shares her vast knowledge with her companions, and guides them through dangers that only her ancient eyes can perceive!"
Morsūl maneuvers people and objects according to a logic that only she comprehends – tasting emotions, cataloguing screams, delectating on dynamics. She needs something, something new, something interesting at all times. And your interruption to the stale party dynamic is tantalisingly rich in possibilities.
Fortuna, the Cursed Catwoman
"Blessed by the gods themselves! This beast-blooded savant dances through danger as though the very fates guide her paws. Where others would fall to traps, Fortuna finds safe passage. Where others see certain doom, she spots the one path to victory. Her fresh-faced charm belies her uncanny gift – and fortune smiles upon any party wise enough to welcome her!"
Where once Fortuna moved with feline certainty, now she second-guesses every step. She has started ‘accidentally’ triggering traps that she already detected. The party thinks she's becoming clumsier – but in reality, something far darker is emerging.
…And You
You, alone, exist outside of their toxic codependency. You're the one piece that doesn't fit their pattern of mutual destruction. But whether that makes you their salvation, or just another catalyst for their dissolution, remains to be seen.
The Party Mascot is a choice-based visual novel, scripted by 4MinuteWarning, and fully animated in stunning 3D by Cumkeys.
