Rules:
1) I am the World Master. I control the plot progression, calculate the results of the gamey bits (this involves some dice rolls and math!) and turn both into the writing that makes up the story. I will provide multiple [options] for the next 2-5 significant choices for the various characters to make to continue the plot.
2) You are the players. You vote on what the main character, Hazel Chase, will do and exercise a measure of control over other characters as I present you with options for what they might do. For example, during a Prey's attempted escape from Hazel, I'll offer general and vague strategies the Prey might employ and more fully explained choices Hazel might make to counteract. This control is collective and exercised by voting.
3) Voting is done by posting a reply with >your vote< and whatever else you want to say. IF your vote is not inside >these< I'll ignore it at best and at worst I'll take it as a vote for what not to have happen and bad things will follow.
4) I'll include a WRITE IN option for voting each time, but I retain the right to veto a WRITE IN even if it's the most highly voted option as well as the right to include what I thought was a cool WRITE IN idea even though it never got any votes. I don't want to discourage cool ideas from it, but I don't want to be beholden to writing something that doesn't fit and/or turns me personally off just because it happened to get some upvotes. I hope that can be understood by all. Good things will likely follow WRITE IN ideas that I enjoy
Alright, I think that settles the Rules bit.

This is the gamification explanation bit. If you want to skip down to the World Building, look for the next line of *** and if you want to get to the vore look for the 3rd line. Below the 4th line will be options for next time.
So, I've personally developed a system for simulating a struggle between Preds and Prey as the one fights to subdue and digest while the other fights for freedom and life. It uses dice for RNG everywhere needed and makes use of a number of stats that come out of levels. Every character has levels in Prey and Strength that work synergistically to determine how capable of escaping a Predator alive they are. This includes characters like Hazel who are Pred capable - sometimes a Pred finds themselves in a gut as well. Preds have levels in Pred, Charm, Gluttony and Digestion in addition to Strength and Prey, and can make use of the stats gained from Charm even after getting swallowed, which makes Preds automatically more dangerous Prey than others of their level.
A lot of experience points are derived from the way that a fight goes... If a Pred wins without exerting much active Strength than (shocker) she will not get much experience in the Strength category. On the other hand, if her active use of muscle throughout the entire fight was the key to victory then she'll get much higher amounts. I have mathematical formulas, albiet somewhat Alpha stage, for how this works on each different Category. After every Vore Encounter - even unsuccessful ones that didn't end with Hazel Chase digested - she will gain a measure of experience in each Category and an amount of FREE experience that I'll turn to all y'all to vote how gets used.
It would only be fair to give you an idea what each Category does though so I'll give a generality and keep this short instead of deep diving. Each Category has 25 levels, and every 5th level is a pretty hefty upgrade by design.
PREY - Determines Base health within a stomach, Base Dice Code used for damage within a stomach, is the sole source of Acid Resistance and provides a lot Static Damage when fighting from inside someone's gut. At later levels unlocks new options for actions.
PRED - Determines Base health as a Predator, Base Dice Code used against Prey, provides a lot Capacity, provides some Acid generation and helps set an Acid Cap, and at higher levels it provides a little Resistance to damage from Prey. At later levels unlocks new options for actions.
Strength - Enhances health slightly, significantly boosts Static Damage on active strikes, provides modest Resistance to all damage and at higher levels upgrades Base Dice Codes to an extent. Sole source of Stamina.
Charm - Enhances health significantly, boosts Resistance to all damage significantly, slightly increases Capacity at higher levels, and is the sole source of Crits. At later levels it unlocks Dazes (Super Crits) and Stuns (MEGA CRITS).
Gluttony - Enhances health modestly, boosts Acid Cap modestly, significantly increases Capacity, and provides modest Resistance to damage from Prey. At later levels it unlocks a second set of smaller Dice Code for Predator actions and occasionally increases the Acid generation.
Digestion - Enhances health slightly, greatly increases Acid Cap, unlocks passive dice based Acid damage for the Pred at Acid Cap, periodically Acid generation (it is the best source of this, but Acid generation is busted so it can't go up often), and modestly increases Capacity. At later levels it unlocks passive dice based Acid damage prior to reaching Acid cap that stacks with the passive damage that will be added at Acid Cap.
Capacity is a complex thorn in my side since it's a problem of Surface Area while each Prey is a matter of Volume. Which means that while saying that Prey 1 is X Capacity and Prey 2 is Y Capacity so eating both take X+Y Capacity is a semi-reasonable simplification if tightly limited to 3 or 4 prey maximum something much more complicated is required to handle the shape and expansion to go beyond that. Since I wanted the system to be able to handle an elite Super Predator eating a few dozen prey in one go... I had to tackle the difference. What that means for you guys is that each Capacity you add to Hazel carries a larger amount of "weight" for how much she could devour. I'll make sure everyone knows what options require her to OVERSTUFF herself to eat so many prey at once.
Fullness, the Prey side of Capacity that determines how much Capacity they use up, is calculated based on a formula that incorporates the number and the literal weight of the Prey. Bigger prey will always lead to higher Fullness provided they are enough bigger - but too many smaller prey will equally negate it. Since it's related to weight, women tend to be significantly less filling than men and Preds tend to the be most filling. When presenting [options] for someone Hazel Chase can eat I'll provide the prey's weight within a 5 pound accuracy and how much Fullness the Prey would be if they were her ONLY prey. 5 and 6 Fullness will be dominant, 4 Fullness means a tiny person while 7 Fullness requires a small giant.
Weight Gain depends on how much Fullness the Pred had at the end of struggling with her prey, how strong of a Pred she is (in every Category - running high stats requires lots of Calories) and how long she spends digesting with how much effort added in. If she sleeps her prey off she's gonna take forever to flatten her gut and in the process she'll get fat, if she focuses a lot of energy on manually mashing up her prey to shrink that belly down in a couple hours she's gonna burn tons of the calories off just doing the high energy digestion. At a more middle ground route, if she spends some hours in the gym or otherwise highly physical activity without specifically putting effort into speeding her digestion it will end with more modest results both ways.
OVERSTUFFING. All Preds can push past the limits of their Capacity by up to 50% of the numerical value of their Capacity stat. It incurs increasing and potentially harsh negs, but it trains Gluttony EXTREMELY well. Since it's scaling off the Surface Area for that 50% it means that you might be surprised just how early it allows a Pred to have additional extra prey over their supposed limit.
RESISTANCE. All resistance is applied only one time per turn regardless of the number of actions or sources of damage applied against that Resistance.
Multiple Prey share their Resistances with each other and have independent attacks and stamina - meaning that a group is much much much more dangerous if they are high enough level to have decent attack, Acid Resistance and Resistance. Health remains independent and damage is applied in roughly even manner to all Prey - the Pred has a very very very hard time specifically targeting someone, but the Prey equally struggle to specifically protect a weak link to maintain damage output.
TURNS during a Vore Encounter go as follows.
ACID deals damage to Prey
Prey go by turns
Pred goes
Acid is generated and/or passive damage is applied.
New turn
ACID deals damage to Prey
Whenever health goes to 0 the fight ends and if it comes down to turn order than the highest item on the priority list gets the W.
**************************************************************************************************************************************************************
The world is modern, but with Vore and Predators included since ancient times. So there's cell phones and cars, pizza delivery and take out, airplanes and skyscrapers. The political world is an interconnected mess, there's sprawling megalopolis and super cities along with tiny rural locations where everyone knows everyone else in the most tight knit fashions. First World countries enjoy extreme technological and militaristic advantage, while some of the worst off Third World countries are still fighting with sticks and steel. Some few hundred years ago an era of Revolution coincided with the explosion of technology in what later became known as the First World countries - tyrannical regimes overthrown and democratic (at least on the surface) leadership emerged.
Mostly, those tyrannical regimes were led by Predators. In the era before modern weapons allowed anyone to kill at hundreds or thousands of yards, the iconic strength of Predators and their ability to literally devour the opposition made them an irreplaceable resource for war and they were both common enough and rare enough to make up the upper ranks of society by themselves. When they fell from power, Preds had their work cut out for them to maintain a proper presence and livelihood in the new societies. Ultimately they succeeded after a fashion, and there was no dedicated war of extermination against the Preds of any country - though various amounts of their former privileges were stripped away and in some countries actual restrictions were placed on them. But nowhere was the act of Vore itself equated to murder legally.
This is because Predators are not man-eaters entirely* by choice. They are obligate man-eaters, unable to indefinitely sustain life without at least occasional meals of grown humans. Stronger Preds end up needing to eat Prey FAR more often, up to needing a few each day or a grand feast once a week or so - while weaker Preds may be able to go a full month between Prey if they have the resources to stuff themselves to suppress the urge temporarily. Plenty of Preds hunt Prey significantly more often than they strictly need to though.
Of course, simply making it legal for Preds to hunt Prey is about all they really needed. Predators are extraordinarily powerful and durable, and pack extreme weight into seemingly slender forms. Their muscles, organs, bones and even their fat are condensed relative to how capable they are. A Predator is fully capable of looking like a model and having more mass than a sumo wrestler... which is vital to them being able to move with nearly no impediments after eating said sumo wrestler. Initially the strength and durability are shocking only in contrast to their apparent size, but at later levels it becomes absolutely super human... enough to lift an 18 wheeler and survive a .50 Cal to the chest (if taken to the hospital in a reasonable timeframe).
It is important to note that in this world, all Predators are women. But very far from all women are Predators. Only about 1 in 1,000 as a global average, though in some countries it is as rare as 1 in 100,000 or as common as 1 in 100. The ratios never get more extreme then that since even in the countries that have had the most Preds eliminated during the purges of dynasties a few hundred years ago have had the Pred population rebound since then and there is no such thing as a country that can sustain more than 1 in 100 Preds needing to regularly eat out of that 100 no matter how strongly the country encourages childmaking to maintain population.
The genes for Preds are passed down through men until it reaches the eldest daughter born to any man with a Pred for mother, grandmother or further back the family tree. So 3 brothers born to a Pred could give rise to a maximum of 3 new Preds. This also means that no Pred ever directly gives birth to another Pred and created the importance of human men who could spread the bloodline of Predators even during the days of tyranny. While never scientifically proven, it has been theorized for centuries that the more generations skipped before a new Pred is born, the more powerful that Pred will be. Hazel Chase comes as a surprise when she's a Predator - it's been enough generations that nobody realized until events begin that she was of a Predator bloodline.
The story takes place/begins in a First World country that stripped all privileges from Predators, and only places restrictions on the age of Prey that can be legally hunted. There's classes that can be taken, by people of age to be hunted only, that teach people how to maximize their chances of escaping a hungry Predator, with a teacher who is legally required to spit out students after letting them get first hand experience. There's sports that revolve entirely around Vore as a key aspect. There's rumors that some extremely powerful Preds are on the government's payroll for assassinations, executions and more.
Predators experience an "awakening" around 17-19 years old, entering a "feral" hunger where they will attempt to devour anyone they can get their hands on no matter who it might be. The "feral" state also reemerges whenever a Pred tries for too long to suppress her more normal urges to eat someone and starves herself to the point her body demands the sustenance that it will starve without. (Somehow I doubt we're ever going to let Hazel undergo a second "feral" state lol.) In the extraordinarily rare event that a Predator in a "feral" state cannot find ANYONE to successfully digest, the Predator dies of starvation within 24 hours.
Oral Vore is the only kind of Vore known to be practiced. There are rumors of experienced and capable Predators that can manage Anal Vore, but the world as a whole dismisses this as superstition and flights of fancy. Though, perhaps it is more real than that - one just needs enough capability and the knowledge of how to work such a skill? (I'm open ended here, but not unless we are dealing with Preds that are level 10 or so out of 25.)
Most Vore in this world is Fatal. However, due to technological advances, there are a few methods of Reformation. There's also rumors of a more mystical way to return to life - but it's by its very nature virtually impossible to verify except by those who claim to have experienced it.
There is a pill that causes a Predator that takes it to reform an exact copy of the LAST prey that they ate (in multi prey situations, the last prey to succumb to digestion) within their womb. There's a few problems though. The pills are expensive, costing $1,000 each and costing much more if you want to buy them in bulk since there's only a single manufacturer, and that Pred CEO has no interest in selling the formula OR in flooding the market. For another, while you retain memories and your body is reformed, the mass of your body doesn't come from nowhere. It comes right off the Pred, and it massively drains her potency (experience/levels) as well. Furthermore, each pill only drags about 10 pound towards reforming you, so if the Pred only takes one pill you'll be reformed as a slightly big baby version of yourself and have to grow up all over again. It takes 10 pills to be remotely confident of coming back as an adult - and sometimes that's shaky. It's best to know how much you weigh and calculate the number of pills it takes to regain that. So if you're counting on these pills and are fairly average sized, you best hope your Pred can stand to lose 150-250 pounds and can be trusted to actually take ALL of them.
There's a technology at hospitals that allows one to store memories and some base DNA and grow back a body when biomass is donated in a sealed chamber. It's much more reliable, but the memories only go to the last time you updated them, there's only a handful of chambers in the country that are sold on auction anytime they come available again - typically going for tens of millions of dollars. The biomass generally is donated by Preds - something about their biomass is different than a normal human's and the properties are essential to the process. And like the pills, the mass the Pred loses is directly connected to the mass reformed in the chamber... however, this process wastes more biomass in conversion. Much more. Typically half of the price of the chambers ends up being given away to dozens of Preds that donate the required biomass to reform someone. Great way for a Pred to make money while losing weight though. Still saps experience/levels though.
As for the mystical rumor... sometimes you'll hear of someone experiencing a "time lapse" instead of dying and returning to an extreme memory in time. A wedding, a funeral, losing virginity... awakening as a Pred. It's claimed that those who experience this return with all their memories to the body they had back then in the shape it was in at the time, though the subconscious memories provide the body with roadmaps to become more capable than before. (Experience gain increases!) Supposedly only the person that "time lapsed" is aware of the alternative future where they were digested, and can freely explore other actions than what they took before to prepare or to completely avoid the situation where they were eaten.
***************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Hazel was having a wonderful time as the clock chimed 10 pm. Her friend Jennifer was over to celebrate her 18th birthday which had recently passed and they were enjoying a sleepover together. Some might say it was a childish way to celebrate, but Hazel Chase didn't care what such uptight folks thought, if she said it would be fun than it would be fun! Something was odd though. She'd had more cake than anyone else, eaten a double portion of supper before that - and Hazel NEVER got seconds - yet she'd barely been satisfied for an hour before she'd started to get hungry again. Now, hours after the meal, Hazel's mind kept getting stuck on food instead of whipping Jen at cards.
"Whatcha thinking about dork?" Jennifer teased as Hazel stared off into space. "If you're not careful you're gonna lose another hand and then you'll owe me all your lunch money." The blond 17 year old girl was fairly short, still shy of 5 foot and maybe 130 pounds or so (5 Capacity). She carried it well, having large D cup breasts that constantly made Hazel jealous and just enough ass to claim an hourglass shape. Meanwhile Hazel was at least 3 inches taller and could generously be described as "slender" or "slim". She preferred the more blunt "scrawny". Hazel hadn't needed a bra until she was 16, and had spent years telling herself she was just a late bloomer and she'd catch up... that certainly never happened. She still wore the same training bras she used at 16 and they fit perfectly. There was nothing downstairs either, her ass was nearly nonexistent. The only things she had bigger than Jennifer was her belly and her height - a fact that occasioned a lot of teasing both ways.
Shaking herself off, Hazel looked at the cards in her hand and on the table again. An Ace and a 6 in her hand, and the turn on the table was the Ace of Hearts, Jack of Hearts, Jack of Spades and the 6 of Clubs. "Nothing important. Call." Hazel replies, unable to suppress a grin. 'Two pair, not bad at all. We'll see who ends up on top.'
Jennifer lays down the River, the 6 of Hearts. She smiles slightly. "I think you've gotten distracted thinking about the half a cake downstairs. Your sweet tooth is about to cost you soooo much more. Hurry up and bid, we can get something to eat after this hand."
Hazel shrugs, trying hard to conceal her excitement. A Full House! She actually has a Full House for this round, there's basically no way she can lose anymore! She'd been doing poorly all night, and had lost 3 dollars to Jennifer out of the $10 they'd started with. The pot already held another $2, one of the biggest pots yet. But she could make it bigger, right? "I'll Raise $1." She states as calmly as she can, hoping to pull Jennifer into betting heavy instead of cutting her losses.
A small frown appears on Jennifer's pretty face. The short blonde considers and then looks over at Hazel. "You've got 3 of a kind, don't you? Either that or you've actually figured out how to bluff. Alright, I'll play along. I'll match and Raise you..." Jennifer makes a show of counting exactly how much Hazel has left. "$5. So, are you All-In or are you gonna cut your losses?"
Knowing her friend, Jennifer must have cards that can at least beat a 3 of a kind or she would never pull a stunt this. The cards were to scattered for a Straight, but... there's three Heart cards on the field. If both Jennifer's cards are Hearts, she could be planning a Flush. It would still lose to Hazel's Full House. "Call, I'm all in. Show them." Hazel declares with great confidence, laying down her Ace and Six proudly.
"Oh." Jennifer groans. She tosses her cards onto the River face down. "You know, this is why I told you we shouldn't play poker. You win, let's go downstairs and have some cake." The pair gets up and heads into the kitchen, each taking a slice and heading back to Hazel's bedroom.
Right as she closes the door behind her, Hazel feels the most intense pain of her life suddenly gouge her in the gut. Like a black hole had spawned in her stomach. She stumbles forward, dropping the plate with her cake onto the floor, icing getting all over the playing cards. A pained groan echoes in her ear as she feels her stomach roar. Hazel needed to fill the abyss inside her, and pulled herself towards the ruined cake on the floor as her stomach makes a hideous sound of need.
>12 Consume<
In a moment Jennifer was at her side, completely filled with concern. "Are you okay, where does it hurt? Should I call someone?" Jennifer holds the sides of Hazel's face in her hands as she turns towards the door to call for help. In a shocked moment, before she can give voice to a shout to bring her friend's family to help them, Jennifer feels her hands suddenly vanish into something wet and looks back, seeing her elbows vanishing into Hazel's ravenous gullet. Her mind froze at the impossibility and by the time she thought to scream her head was already descending into the taller brunette's throat, completely muffling the noise.
With a ravenous fury Hazel kept swallowing, her mind picturing her friend as the most delicious ice cream cone with double scoops. Her tongue relentlessly traveled across flesh anywhere it could be found and unconscious movements of her hands stripped her friend nude as she gulped down the mounds of breast fat Hazel had always envied. Had envied much more than she let on were the truth to be known. Jennifer's hands popped into Hazel's stomach and the immediate sense of relief washing through her gave Hazel the drive to accelerate her consumption
Everything was dreadfully tight, and the darkness around Jennifer was terrifying and disorienting in equal amounts. She couldn't do anything but kick her legs anymore, her arms crushed to her sides by the tube that was feeding her into the deadly gut of her own best friend. Part of her realized that it was pointless to continue to resist being swallowed, but Jennifer had absolutely no confidence she could escape on her own. She was too young to take any classes for escaping a Predator, was too small of build for athletic activities and a weakling all around. At least Hazel was fairly active and sometimes kept up with the boys in P.E.
A wonderful sensation greeted Hazel's taste buds no matter where her tongue roamed as she rapidly filled her gut. The stomach was divine, the ass was meaty and the brief taste of pussy had made her swallow impulsively at the wonder of it all. Even the legs were a delight in their own way, especially as the flailing finally got contained and a long simple slurp ended Jennifier's stay outside of Hazel. Her gut groaned as it started to work right away and the haze fell away from Hazel's mind as pain caused her to realize she'd had eyes that may have been bigger than her stomach. She'd OVERSTUFFED herself in her desperation to eat whatever... more accurately, whoever... was available.
>Hazel starts with 1 Exhaustion<
>Hazel deals reduced damage and is more vulnerable to damage<
>0 Acid damage<
The stomach still gearing up, Jennifer remains safe from any acids for now, having more to worry about from disgusting remnants of Hazel's birthday cake than anything that would sear and melt her down. Enraged at the shocking turn of events and panicked about her own odds of survival, Jennifer wildly Thrashes without regard for her rapidly depleting Stamina.
>Hazel takes 3 damage, Jennifer gains 1 Exhaustion<
"OWW!" The newly born Predator yelps as a foot bulges her gut wildly to her right side and then a fist rams straight out from her middle. "Stop Jennifer, that hurts!"
"Make me you bitch! You ate me!!! Let me out of here!!!!!!!!!!" Jennifer screams.
"Fine." Hazel groans and attempts to flex her stomach muscles to put some Squeeze on her friend to make the fighting stop.
>Jennifer takes 1 damage<
>Acid increases by 1<
>Jennifer takes 1 Acid damage<
The sudden pressure was obviously experimental, but it still shoved Jennifer back in on herself pretty forcefully. The realization that Hazel hadn't put nearly all her strength into that adds fuel to the fires of Jennifer's fears. As she feels the acids already starting to rise Jennifer becomes convinced that she needs to escape as soon as possible or it will be too late. Right now it's only a few inches deep and only vaguely tingles, but at the rate it's flooding in she'll be half covered in very little time. "Hazel, please! You're going to digest me if you don't. Let. Me. OUT!" Jennifer yells, punctuating every word with a vigorous kick or punch. As far as the blond girl is concerned, she can't exactly miss so she might as well hit as hard as she can. But her Stamina is starting to run dangerously low as she continues to Thrash within Hazel's belly.
>Hazel takes 2 damage and Jennifer gains 1 Exhaustion. Jennifer is at 2 Exhaustion. At 3 Exhaustion Jennifer will not have the Stamina to fight back and will have to Rest to shrug off some of her Exhaustion.<
The aimless struggle inside of her is painful and uncomfortable, but at the same time Hazel is finding that the dull aches are far more manageable than she initially thought they would be. But since her friend is still determined to fight, this time Hazel doesn't plan to hold back anymore. "There'll be time to figure out what to do after you quit fighting me!" Hazel growls as she Squeezes hard on her friend.
>Jennifer takes 3 damage. Due to how Exhausted Jennifer is she takes 1 extra damage.<
Bruises form as Jennifer is pummeled by a strong force pressuring her from all sides, especially her extremities that are extended from putting blow after blow into the stomach walls around her. Realizing that she's too tired to keep fighting the way that she has been, Jennifer pauses and tries to calm herself down and take deep breaths.
>Acid increases by 1<
>Jennifer takes 2 Acid damage. Due to how Exhausted Jennifer is she takes 1 extra damage.<
The acids rise up to Jennifer's navel as she sits in the fetal position, panting. The tingling is getting to be more like an itching, but Jennifer is also getting accustomed to the sensation. Jennifer is well aware that if she doesn't get out of Hazel in time that itching will develop into an agonizing series of acid burns. But now that she's calmed down somewhat, it seems like the potency of the acids isn't increasing so much as the volume is. Still bad news, but far more manageable. "So what are we going to do Hazel? I know you don't want to digest me, right? I'm your best friend!"
>Jennifer loses 1 Exhaustion from Resting<
A myriad of thoughts fill Hazel's mind. She needs time to sort them out and decide what she wants to do now that the situation has reached this point. "Give me a minute to think, please. I'm still trying to understand exactly how all of this happened in the first place."
>Hazel loses 1 Exhaustion from Resting<
