DCL 9 and Furniture Devices
🕑 Added 2020-08-16 19:15:46 +0000 UTCToday I want to talk a bit about furniture devices, and how they will become a part of DCL in 9.0. Furniture devices offer many new and exciting opportunities for bondage fun, and you can count on DCL making good use of all the new features DD Contraptions offers. In the past, furniture devices have been used mostly for decoration or in scenes. DDC's framework comes with a full featured escape system, timed devices, dynamically spawned devices and DCL is going to make use of all of that. On top of the decoration!
In the past, DCL made only casual use of furniture devices (such as for locking up Chloe at the start of her quest, or for a bit of eye-candy in the Delivery Refused LAL quest), and even those were removed when the DD framework split away from ZAP. Well, they will obviously be back!
And this is only the beginning!
The owner of the Whip and Chain Inn seems to be a true furniture lover. Her establishment features a good dozen devices, and while some of them are occupied by...errrm...models, the rest of them you can play with! I briefly mentioned a little escape game run by a WnC employee who will let you try to escape a variety of devices for fun and profit. In the Escape Room, you will also find a few devices. No, they are NOT just for decoration. You will find out! But if you thought that the game was just about clicking containers until you found all the required keys, you forgot that DCL started as that mod that trapped containers! *cough*
Talking about traps: DCL wouldn't be DCL without these. And since DDC can spawn furniture devices dynamically...well...you probably guessed the newest peril of Skyrim: Furniture traps! A new kind of devious magic can spawn them wherever, so you have to be even more careful when looting these boxes. Otherwise you might spend some time trying to struggle out of these nasty devices you suddenly got stuck in!
And last, but not least: Criminally inclined adventuresses, beware! City guards in all major Skyrim cities have ordered furniture devices to be built where criminal girls can be put on display to publicly humiliate them. Or punish them in more direct ways. Because random passersby might decide to take advantage of your locked-up situation and have some additional fun with you. No, don't count on the city guard to help you. On the plus side, these devices are a bit less inescapable than the city guard would have preferred. They also saved money on the locks and fitted all the devices with standard locks! Perhaps you managed to hide a key on you somewhere? If yes, you can always try to shorten your sentence a bit but trying to unlock yourself or struggling out of your confinement. At least if you can reach the lock. If not, you can always endure your punishment until you get released.
Oh, in case I didn't mention, but the furniture punishment feature is very easily extensible, to the degree that 3rd party mods could easily place more DDC furniture in the world and register the device to the feature to make it use them.
Personally I think bondage furniture is one of the most exciting things added to DCL in a while. The new features should add a lot more fun to your bound life in Skyrim. And yes, I will probably find more use for these devices in the future!
Enjoy summer and I will be back with more news later!

The question is, how long are the struggling animations and will the enemies continue attacking while the struggling is happening? If the dragon born has enough health perhaps they will survive long enough to struggle free. Or perhaps getting trapped in a contraption could trigger a surrender. I'm really interested to how this plays out. It would be a fun experience either way.
Not -completely- helpless. There is obviously a way out of these devices. I am mean, but I am not THAT mean! :D

I guess I will have to be more careful about looting while in combat. If an armbinder or yoke triggers I can usually just run away, but a contraption leaves the dragon born completely helpless. I really like how devious this is becoming.

"Oh, and am I the only one who thinks The Whip and Chain is actually an excellent concept for a real world fetish bar?" -- no, you're not alone! I would so like to visit such a bar for real! Kimy, I love your updates and previews for the next DCL. I'm very excited about those new toys and traps for our beloved kinky Skyrim!

I keep forgetting that magic in TES-world cannon allows you to do pretty much whatever you want. Trapped containers dropping furniture? That's just mean... I love it. :D I also love the additions to vanilla crime. When it comes to crime, you basically have DCL and PoP, and that's the missing link for DCL. Being able to have some agency regarding punishment puts DCL well over PoP in content, so I'm quite pleased to see it. Oh, and am I the only one who thinks The Whip and Chain is actually an excellent concept for a real world fetish bar?
I will have some news about the ETA soon! :)

Sounds great, I'm looking forward to it! Any rough ETA on DLC 9? Is this something we are likely to see in a month or two, by the end of the year, or next year? No pressure, this was an exciting post and I'm just eager to try it.

Oh dear. Now even the boxes have furniture? That was some powerful kinky mage that started this mess. Looking forward to it!
