User blog:SAmaster/Mamano Fan Creation - Stealth Charms

Greetings valued Customer!

As you know, we monsters suffer from prejudice from the many Human Kingdoms around the world. This unfortunately means large portions of the world are very dangerous for our kind, and many oppurtunities are shut away from us. Not to mention it makes finding a Husband needlesssly difficult.

Fortunately, we in the Demon Realm have found a solution for you! With this simple Stealth Charm, you can pass seamlessly through Human Society under the form of a Human Female undetected! Simply don the Stealth Charm, and your appearance will be changed for all to see. Remove it when you are done, and resume your beautiful Monster body.

Warning:
The Basic Stealth Charm uses a simple illusion spell, as opposed to the Deluxe Stealth Charm, which uses a transformation spell. It is entirely possible that despite the magical disguise you may give yourself away through some slight accident, such as knocking something over with your disguised tail. This is especially dangerous for large-bodied Monsters. Similarly curling these parts of your body of a Husband Candidate is a dead giveaway. Forethought is required for this charm.

Even if you purchase the Deluxe Version, it is entirely possible your naivete on Human Culture will give you away. It is strongly suggested if you are to spend any stretch of time within Human Society, you should do some research so you don't accidently reveal yourself. It is important you do this, as being discovered as a Monster in Anti-Monster states is incredibly dangerous, you will either be executed or imprisoned, and any friends you may have made will be under suspiscion.

We strongly suggest reading A Monsters' Guide on Human Society, and Infiltrating and Blending in to Human Society both authored by the creator of the Stealth Charm on how to act like a Human, and not reveal yourself. Any research is better than none. If nothing else, we suggest observing Humans while in disguise, analyzing their behavior, and socialize with humans out in the wilderness before entering towns, villages or cities, where the risk of being caught is greater.

Reasons to disguise yourself as Human
You may be asking yourself: Why would I ever want to appear as a lowly Human? Many reasons! Here are some of the many different uses of the Stealth Charm:
 * To travel across the many Anti-Monster Human Kingdoms
 * To go Husband Hunting undetected.
 * To live within Human Society undetected.
 * Make Human Friends who would be wary of your Monstrous Form.
 * To observe and learn more about Human Society.
 * Try on Human clothing that your body cannot accomadate.
 * Roleplay for your Husband, either sex, or so he can see what you may have looked like as a Human.

The Creator
The inventor of this incredibly useful item was a Succubus of the Demon Realm, who was fascinated with all of Human Society, despite it's many flaws. The daughter of a skilled alchemist, she worked tirelessly on ways to conceal her tail, wings, horns, and other monstrous features, and ventured several times into Human Society undetected. She has even firmly entrenched herself in Human Society, as such her identity must remain a secret, but she works for our Demon Lord behind the scenes to aid her fellow Monsters, and has authored two best-selling books, A Monsters' Guide on Human Society, in which she details the basics of Human Society, their maneurisms, and the differences with Monster Society, a useful book for any who have trouble understanding their Human Husbands background and morals, or those moving to a Monster Friendly Human Kingdom, and A Monsters Guide on Infiltraging and Blending in to Human Society, which describes homegrown methods of disguise for various species, and how to adopt more Humanlike Mannerism.

Her work has culminated in the Stealth Charm, an easy and affordable solution for any Monster who needs or wishes to disguise themselves as a Human for any reason. An enchanted Devil Gem, the basic Stealth Charm comes as a basic necklace. Simply drape it around your neck, and it will hide all your Monstrous attributes, replacing them with more Humanlike ones. There's no need to worry, the magic is entirely illusory, your body will still be your own, for instance your hooves will appear as feet, but you will be unable to don Human shoes, and will even clack against stone roads and floors, so a note of caution to Big-Bodied Monsters, and those who own more limbs than a typical Human. The spell is removed as soon as the Charm is removed, and can be recast as many times as you many times as you may need.

While the basic Stealth Charm will simply make your body appear human, custom or deluxe versions can be ordered and made for you that have stronger magic, and can change your appearance according to your own wishes. Features, and differences include:

Basic Stealth Charm:
The Mail-Ordered, and off-the-shelf form. While it's use is much more limited compared to the custom and deluxe versions, but it is likewise much more cheaper, and is good for those who simply must pass throguh Human Society, and don't desire to stay for longer. Be warned, the Basic Stealth Charm does not hold up to hard scrutiny, and takes some concentration in order to be used as an effective disguise.
 * Comes in the form of a simple necklace
 * Changes the appearance of your body to others, hiding extra limbs, claws, hooves, etc.
 * Works for anyone putting it on, giving them the appearance of a Human Female.
 * Does not conceal Monstrous attributes that most Human Women would lack, such as Pleasure Runes, and your own Monstrous Beauty (this is so most monsters can more easily ensnare a Husband while under disguise) Holstaurus for instance still hold their enormous breasts, which may give them away.
 * Does not remove the parts of your body humans lack, you must remain wary of these touching anyone, or knocking anything over, tails, wings, extra limbs, large-bodied Monsters must remain extra cautious.
 * Likewise does not hide the sound your monstrous limbs may produce i.e. wings flapping, hooves clopping, claws scraping etc.
 * Gives the appearance of a plain Human Dress on your person, which is different for each person. Monster Fashion sense is often at odds with Human Fashion sense, so this is to help you better fit in.
 * Spell is indefinite so long as the user is wearing the necklace.

Custom Stealth Charm
Additional features can be ordered to the Stealth Charm to work as a more effective disguise, as well as to give an appearance their user would rather have while in disguise. The apperance of the charm itself can be changed as you wish for a short price, so long as it is still a peice of wearable jewelry. We even do Wedding Rings! The addition of each feature does increase the price, how much so though varies on the feature, and from region to region.
 * Low-Price: The appeance of the charm. Can be any peice of wearable jewelry, any design. Charm can be inserted or added onto a peice of jewelry that is already owned. Cost varies on the price of jewelry it is being made into. For greatest effect, we suggest something plain, and easy to miss.
 * Low-Price: The ability to hide extra features, such as scars, marks, pleasure-runes, Monstrously-beautiful features in order to look more plain. Conversely you could enhance such features if you lack confidence in your apperance.
 * Low-Price: The apperance of a custom outfit for your disguise. If you so wish, the feature can be removed completely, showing your own clothing on your disguise where appropriate. A passing knowledge of Human fashion is adivised for users of this feature. Allows you to don most clothes used by Humans, useful for those wishing to live in Human Society.
 * Medium-Price: An option to make changes to your appeance when donning the Stealth Charm, such as in eye, hair, and skin-color different from what you already possess. The Charm will do this naturally if you possess a color Humans traditionally lack, finding the closest equivalent, but if you find it not to your liking you can make a special request. Likewise, we can alter your features, and figure to look more attractive, or more plain as you decide. We can even mimic an exact apperance of your choosing based on a portait, painting, or picture, and make adjustments from there. Cost increases as more changes are made.
 * Medium-Price: Can change your height and proportions to be larger or smaller, or to whatever degree you wish. It is suggested for any changes in height more than a couple inches that one also purchases  the transformative feature, as otherwise you may easily out yourself as being in disguise by acting out of accordance to your percieved height.
 * Medium-Price: For those wishing to experience sex with their husbands as a Human, the charm can dull a Monsters desire and lust to that of a Human. Warning: Except in rare exceptions this reduces pleasure in sex. Suggested only for those with a curiosity and scholarly interest in Human Society, or for those who take their roleplay seriously.
 * High-Price: Changes the magic from being illusory to being transformative. Will remove extra limbs and other features to be more Human-like while Charm is worn. Additional limbs, such as legs for any Lamia, will be fully functional, and may need some getting used to. Effect is still removed along with the charm. Especially useful for big-bodied Monsters. Cannot make permanant transformations.

Deluxe Stealth Charm
Complete with all features for a reduced, though still costly price. With the Deluxe Charm, you can seamlessly integrate amongst Humans, and it is strongly advised for Monsters who wish to live in Human Society.
 * The Necklace it comes with is a more expensive piece of jewelry, being made of gilded Demon Silver.
 * Removes all monstrous attributes save for your beautiful looks.
 * The effect is tranformative, allowing you to pass through scrutiny, and experience the body of a Human.
 * Allows you to change clothes while in disguise.
 * A custom appearance as specified by you the customer, alongside proffessionals in fashion, beauty, and Human Culture to help you in your decisions.

Guide on Husband Hunting
One of the best uses of the Stealth Charm is in obtaining a Husband in Human Kingdoms, far from competition. We would like to impart some advice on how to proceed finding a Husband in Human Society, as well as when and how to reveal your Monsterhood to him.

In finding a Husband Candidate, try to avoid certain Humans, Priests usually aren't allowed to marry, and tend to be violently Anti-Monster. Certain High-Ranking humans are expected to have arranged marriages for power, and it may cause trouble if either of you were to fall for each-other. Humans don't like sharing husbands, so it will be very difficult for you to marry a man who already has a single wife or lover, even if you are on good terms with both of them. Lastly, most young women avoid marrying the elderly, doing so might arise some suspicion. Keep in mind these are only guidelines, if you are set on anyone who falls under this list by all means chase after them, just be aware that it is more difficult this way.

Once you have found a Husband Candidate, try to avoid being overly flirtatious or aggressive. Humans tend to have a very long courting process over the course of months, or even years! They are generally relunctant to jump into a relationship. But if you are patient, and don't despair, you can still have a happy and loving relationship with your husband candidate before having an official marriage. Many girls even say they find Human dating to be rather enjoyable. The trick is to decide between the two of you when you cross certain relationship barriers. There's nothing wrong with being aggressive, but make sure to listen to your Husband Candidate when he tells you to stop. Refusing to listen may end with him trying to end the relationship, and any aggression after that will swiftly reveal you as a monster.

Once in this relationship, you must decide when or whether or not you intend to reveal your Monsterhood to your beloved. Be wary, many Humans are brainwashed by the church and state into believing Monsters are evil, even if he's deeply in love with you, he may turn you into the authorities out of fear, or thinking that he is helping you. It's very useful to ascertain what his stance on monsters is before you enter a relationship. Some Humans may accept your Monsterhood, especially if you have immersed yourself in Human Culture by this point, and will keep your secret. But others may still fear your Monsterhood. The decision lies with you, but there is much risk.

Married life in the Human World is somewhat different than with Monsters, it requires more work and chores, and less sex, but if you can get over that it is all a Monster can hope for. However, if you must also take care if your Husband does not know of your Monsterhood at this point when it comes to bearing children. Obviously, your child would not have the same Stealth Charm as you possess, and will be a full Monster. We offer Charms for newborns, so if you are still keeping the charade, excuse yourself a week or so before the birth, and apply the charm to your daughter. This way you can keep the illusion going, though please remember to tell your daughter of her heritage, lest she run into problems later in life.

Final Words
"Human Society isn't for everybody. In many ways it's greater than Monster Society, and in some ways it's inferior. But I can't help but be in love with it and it's people. Thankfully I can share my secret with my Husband and my family. I've achieved everything I've ever wanted, I couldn't be happier. So I seek to give this joy to any who wish to seek it. It takes effort, no doubt about that, but I think the life here, if tiresome, is rewarding. And so I hope that you can undesrtand the way I feel, and that all Monsters can at least get a taste of Human Society."

-The inventor of the Stealth Charm.
