The Fate of Zuria
4 years ago
Hello, everybody!
I know it was my goal with The Rubber Princess to portray the rubber fetish scene in a positive light that is palatable for all readers. However, for those of us more heavily invested in it, I wanted to hear your thoughts on the following concept.
As you will likely recall, Zuria was gifted her powers of rubbermancy by the forces of the underworld so that she could topple the Unifying Emperor in her first life. Perhaps out of some sense of mercy, or more out of their hope that they still saw Zuria as capable of enacting their goals of achieving total domination of the world, they gave her a second chance with a new life after the Dark Age. In this, too, she failed to Aegerter and Isarte.
So what happened to her soul? Now having failed the forces of demonic rubbermancy twice, there can be no mercy. For me, it has always a very sexy concept to involve power exchanges--sometimes permanent. To see doms/dommes fall from grace and be reduced to the roles of submissive or slave is a tantalizing idea.
So this being the case, how would everybody feel about a short side story involving Zuria's fate at the hands of her demonic overlords? Will they have their way with her for having failed them twice? Will she go from Queen of wicked rubbermancy to a humiliated rubberslave to the forces that granted her the power she dreamed of wielding?
OR, should we just let it be, and have her legacy more or less ended in the field of battle against Aegerter? I've heard many of my readers express sympathy for her character, and as such perhaps it would be the most respectful thing to do to let her be.
I look forward to hearing what you all think! :)

Personally, I enjoy the journey of a reforming villain. Occasionally, this happens when an even greater villain is introduced and the lesser villain and hero must unite against them, thereby finding common ground. Other times, it's more of a, 'if I can't conquer the world my way, no one will'. So, consider the following scenario: the demonic forces do as you suggest and cast Zuria down to the role of a degraded rubberslave. Then, they either choose a new champion to elevate or - since the only way to do a job right is to do it oneself - scheme to invade the world themselves directly. They plan to take Zuria along - demoralizing the protagonists by demonstrating how much more powerful they are in relation to their former foe. Or perhaps they plan to assume Zuria's physical form when they invade (with the real Zuria trapped in a more bestial rubberized form) - demoralizing the protagonists by making them think Zuria cannot actually be defeated.
In any case, now toppled from their formal position of authority, it would be easy to imagine Zuria coming to view the demonic overlords in the same light as the Unifying Emperor. Pushed, abused, and humiliated enough, she might very well turn on them and ruin their plans before they've started. It wouldn't necessarily be motivated by doing the right thing, so much as the demonic overlords inadvertently redirecting Zuria's core rage unto themselves.
I really like that idea. Though I do want to keep things as palatable as possible for a general audience (which I've evidently done, according to my readers who aren't involved in the furry or rubberfur scenes), in order to keep it as such I'm unsure if such scenes detailing Zuria's degradation would be canon. Rather, it would likely be a short story of sorts.
Though I've more or less figured out who the heroes and villains are going to be in Vengeance of Fire (as I'm sure you've figured as well ), it isn't out of the question to feature her fate in a third entry into this saga. I do rather like the idea of the forces of the rubbermantic underworld exceeding the vision of serene chaos that Zuria had by invading and going leaps and bounds further than anything she achieved as Queen. In the process--as you suggested--it would involve the recollection of the rubbermantic energies they imbued her with so that they will become strong again in their own right. Perhaps the little sliver of her mortal life--the one before she had even become the challenger to the Unifying Emperor--will be the only shred of character left in her new life as a lowly rubberslave to the demons and succubi of hell. Perhaps that tiny bit will be enough to have her cry out for the help of Aegerter and the soul of Isarte, whom she had despised so much in her second life.
- as a character she was messured and you gave her a nice background, me as a "normal person" I would like her to go to some kind of... reformation or purgatory because she wasn't totally evil and maybe some punishing and an ereasure to finally give her a new beggining.
- however if you ask me as Roody (some sort of megalomaniac and arrogant Rottweiler obsessed with mind control) she was cold handed, she had some mistakes because (correct me if I missunderstood your character) she still had some empathy despite her personality and she should be condemned to a live of slavery as a mindless drone with all her powers stripped of her and given to someone else.
