“Harrow’s Brats & Discipline, Quests & Customization”

Summary:

Brat and discipline focus: Bratty behavior is now supported more broadly, and testing limits leads more into anger, punishments, discipline, and trust consequences rather than immediate hard failure states. Submission progression with Olena has also been expanded and tied more clearly to specific bath, bed, collaring, and discipline thresholds.
Olena’s expansion: Expanded Olen/Olena’s Manor with more intro and inspection content, more punishments and discipline scenes, new library books, new visitor and correspondence quests, more guest, meeting, and party content, and more submission-based interactions with Olena and some visitors.
Manor’s Daily flow: Cleaning, door duty, dinner, visitors, parties, and leaving the manor have all been reworked so the manor feels more structured, with more events, better navigation, and more ways for player behavior, trust, and Town reputation to shape access and outcomes.
Customization and interface: NPC sex customization is easier to use, the customization page is more compact, players can now manage allowed derogatory terms and add custom ones, and several icons, quest displays, and menu elements now give clearer visual feedback.
Town Council content: Rayan Safir and Samso are now integrated into Town Council content, and the detective agency has been reassigned under Rayan. The gym content is guided more clearly through quests, janitor and trainer progression has been adjusted, Holger and Sikke content has been expanded and clarified, the hardware store takeover is better guided, and several Town Council locations, quest lines, and interactions have been expanded or made easier to follow.
Quest structure: Several quests have been split, reorganized, or grouped under broader parent quests, making progression easier to follow. New quests were added for artifacts, Isara genomics, Adanna’s farm, and other side content.
Adjustments: Various NPC traits, outfits, fetishes, behavior rules, and location setups have been updated, including changes to bondage behavior, gang recruitment, keep access, hair colors, and some item additions.

Full changelog:
Brats and Discipline focus:

Expanded the previous punishments. Punishments now have different interaction steps
Seven new punishments and discipline sessions. A new memorization punishment reveals the Town faction tree. Some harsher punishments are now reserved for high anger, or high discipline fetish
Added injury probabilities to all the punishments
Players can act more bratty even if compliant or try and refuse Ms Harrow, the latter with trust consequences
Acting bratty and testing limits now can make Olena angry, but doesn’t decrease her trust, leading to more punishments and discipline, but not to getting fired
Changed the events if players attack Ms. Harrow. They can ‘win’ the fight and become the assaulters, instead of the police being immediately called. This still has serious reputation consequences. If ‘defeated’ by Ms. Harrow, she might call the police or try to deal with the player herself depending on trust level.
The dinner event is now more interactive and the chance of punishment depends on Olena’s anger, which can rise or decrease depending on the player’s behavior
Polished the dinner punishment scenes to make them fit the tone of the manor. Added bratty options
Adjusted all scenes so they’re compatible with temporary bondage punishments
Olena now tries to increase the player’s submission as their trust rises, with ‘discipline’ sessions presented as lessons in discipline to raise it
The bath and bed warming scenes are now submission based
The bed warming scenes during blackouts require 10% submission
The bath scenes require submission > 20, and > 60 for Olena to ask players to join her in the bath. Penetrative sex scenes require submission > 90% (already wearing her collar). The scenes now allow strap-on sex.
Bath scenes are no longer compulsory, and refusing results in a trust decrease
Fixed the bathing sex scenes to take into account chastity status
At 40% submission players need to spend every night in her bed regardless of blackouts
The undressing in bed now happens from submission 50% and fondling from 70%
The collaring event now happens at submission 80%
Olena no longer asks players to strip for her before warming her bed if they’re already naked or in bondage

Olena/Olen’s expansion:

Olena/Olen now often receives individual guests in the evenings. Players need to serve them and attend to the guests’ needs
Ten different meetings: some can trigger quests and it is now possible to resolve Holger’s investigations into Sikke from within the manor
As Olena’s trust increases, players are first allowed in, and later allowed to participate in the meetings. Before that, they can eavesdrop or enter the meeting through a social check.
When there’s a visitor or a party, players are interrupted by the visitors’ call, giving them the chance to attend even if they didn’t prepare or forgot
The drinking parties now involve officers and guards instead of Ronda gang members and their goals are defined through new specific quests
New potential oral gangbang scene when letting in visiting officers
It’s possible to initiate sex with some visitors
Olena dinner parties now take place every Venus’ day
Olena riskier drink parties now take place every Mars’ day
Several new books in the library, some increase skills the first time they are read
New quest line where players are asked to retrieve the correspondence sent to other ‘houses’ by the Harrow’s family
Players can get the letters willingly from the other council members if their trust reaches 50 or steal them
Some manors find out about the theft and tell Olena, which greatly decreases her trust in the player, while other manors do not notice the theft
Two other sets were sent beyond the manors, one to the corporations and another one to an old university
All the content is now led through new quests, linked through one another so that players can know if there is content to be discovered
New quest line involving the former Harrow’s family trade with the outside world and a sealed underground tunnel still found under the manor

Manor’s Daily flow:

Extended the intro sequence with a more detailed and descriptive inspection by Olena (Olen if selected to be male)
Olena makes more comments on the player’s body and mentions the provided (real or fake) name more often
Players can now put on the uniform (gown or two-piece) by just performing a single action
New “next room” button when cleaning the manor makes navigation easier
Expanded the interaction when Olena approaches while cleaning. She no longer interrupts, but instructs and corrects players with her cane as

they clean. Custom texts if players are wearing a leash.

From trust 20, Olena tells players they need to attend door calls. If the chastity toggle is active and the player has genitalia, this comes with a requirement of wearing chastity.

Random events at the door that can trigger quests, earn the players extra cash, characters’ trust, and Town faction reputation effects

It is now possible to get Ina’s wallet without leaving the manor

If trust falls under 10, Olena takes away the ability of opening the door and leaving the manor

Olena now gives warnings regarding the player’s Town reputation, giving them a chance to improve it, and no longer fires them until her trust is lower than 10, but having a significantly bad reputation lowers her trust daily

If the player has a remarkable standing with the Town faction, Olena’s trust increases daily

From trust 20, Olena no longer accepts players quitting directly and instead requires a dominance check

When cleaning well enough, it is possible to chat with Olena after the day instead of her leaving immediately. She can also give trust-locked quests

Ms Harrow now sometimes shows up as players work and inspects them instead of being always present as a character

Reduced the cleaning times to keep room for the new events. Cleaning the whole floor now takes a shorter time at >80 and >90 service tasks

Once players have cleaned the manor to Olena’s satisfaction, visitors come every day instead of every two days

Missing work a week decreases Olena’s trust and has reputation effects, but no longer results in getting fired right away

Sikke no longer calls the police on players. She puts them in the pillory if they aren’t compliant.

Sikke is quieter and more serious in her shoplifting scenes, fitting better her later scenes
If Sikke is unavailable, the shops call the police
Quest lines now guide the hardware store takeover both under Sikke and Adil

The ‘find a job’, ‘meet people’ and a new ‘find a home’ quests are now goals under a ‘Get settled’ parent quest, that ends when getting an apartment or joining Thulle, the Deviants or the Ronda Gang
