Starsail Bordello
In a remote colony of star systems, sex work is heavily regulated and controlled through a network of state-sanctioned brothels, operated by The Headmistress. With all prostitution, strip-tease, and pornography production outside of the Headmistress' control strictly prohibited, sex workers have no choice but to endure her cruel and domineering presence as she forces herself into controlling all aspects of their lives.
Until one day, a prostitute working under the Headmistress in the |Capitol Sector broke rank, stealing one of the pleasure yachts used to entertain VIP guests and striking out into the greater Raskajan system to operate independently. The Headmistress, determined to send a clear message to any other sex workers who dare to challenge her control of the industry, has sent an unrelenting force of Headhunters after this prostitute and her stolen ship, determined to hunt her down and bring her back.
|Perpetually being hunted by the Headmistress, you navigate your pleasure-shuttle turned-mobile-brothel--your Starsail Bordello--between the twelve outlying Sectors of The Cluster, offering an alternative to the state-sanctioned brothelsthat service them, showing the franchisee operators than an independent future free from the Headmistress' tyranny is possible, and recruiting sex workers who defect from her employ seeking a more fair and just environment.
Build up reputation within each Sector, all of which have their own unique benefits and challenges for operating with them, all the while evading the Headhunters, until your success finally manages to convince the local brothels to break away altogether from the Headmistress. Liberate them into full sovereignty, take ownership of them as a more benevolent alternative to the despotic Headmistress, or leave your own working ladies behind to guide them firsthand in the ways of the Starsail Bordello.
With each local brothel that leaves the Headmistress' network, her privileged position and unique exemptions within the government erode. As the last brothel outside the capitol falls away, her security privileges are revoked, and the Headhunters that have hunted you for so long fall away. All that stands between you and finally confronting the Headmistress herself is convincing the people of the capitol that her iron rule provided inferior service. The tastes and standards of the capitol are impossibly high, but if you can manage to impress them, then--with no customer base left to support her--the Headmistress will have no choice but to resign. Her final fate rests solely upon how thoroughly you manage to dismantle her sex-work empire, and how strongly the liberated brothels are willing to support a new hegemony--one under your control now.
