クイーンズブレイド門の女王

Queen’s Blade: Queen’s Gate

Aludra, the Queen, stood in her chamber of trophies, lost in thought. No matter how hard she searched, her younger sister remained elusive. Why? Why couldn’t she find her? Where did she go?

“Younger sister…” Aludra whispered to the trophy before her, a dark-skinned woman with a face frozen in a perpetual scream of horror. Just another one jealous of her beauty and power, vain enough to think she could replace the Queen. No matter how many she defeated, they kept coming, blind to their folly.

And another comes. Aludra rose at the cold presence that flowed into the chamber. Her flesh-tearing hidden sword at the ready, she turned to meet the latest intruder. Another minion of the Marshland Witch? No, it was someone more powerful. Much more powerful. Perhaps the Marshland Witch herself had come? No, that was exceedingly unlikely.

The shadow cast by a trophy to her left shimmered ever so slightly. Aludra was on it in a second, her crimson sword sinking into the shadow. The jagged blade chipped the floor the shadow covered. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary, but Aludra knew someone was there with her.

The attack came from behind. Sensing her foe at the last second, Aludra whirled around to block the huge black broadsword that would have decapitated her if she had the senses of a lesser creature. The wielder was a tall woman in a midnight black cloak and hood, her voluminous white breasts proudly exposed from a tight corset. The attacker’s eyes gleamed a sickly yellow under her hood.

“Pleased to meet you, Queen Aludra,” the attacker sneered.

“And I don’t care to know your name,” Aludra sighed. The fight was already over. The jewel embedded in her bound left arm flashed, paralyzing the attacker in her tracks.

“Eh? What is this?” the attack demanded, unable to move a step forward or back, her sword frozen in place.

The Evil Eye opened. “You aren’t even worth the effort,” Aludra said, and yellow crystal formed around the attacker where she would remain forever. Another trophy for the collection.

The next attack was too quick even for Aludra. Cold black tentacles rose from the shadows on the floor and whipped around her. Her right arm was restrained, the flesh-tearing hidden sword dropping to the floor. Another knocked her legs out from under her. Aludra fell to the floor with a cry of rage. Something sharp pierced her left shoulder. She turned her head and saw a duplicate of the woman she just petrified bent over her, blood staining prominent white fangs. Rising above the woman were a pair of…vultures? Dragons? Aludra couldn’t tell what they were by their silhouettes. Things with long necks, wings, and pointed faces. Their eyes glowed a sickly yellow, similar to the woman they accompanied.
The bites inflicted on her should burned. Aludra gritted her teeth, feeling a venom work through her system. She sweated and panted, startled by how it was affecting her. “How?” she demanded. “How is this…”

Aludra suddenly felt a heat deep within her body. Her eye widened as a hideous lust burned brightly, her loins growing wet with arousal. She growled, trying her hide her shame and pain.

The woman stroked her hair patronizingly. “That was merely my shadow you imprisoned, Aludra. I was swimming through the shadows of your prizes, watching to strike. How’s it feel, my aphrodisiacs? It’s powerful enough to drive ten strong men wild, and it’s completely natural to my blood and saliva. I know it hurts, but bear with it. I’ll play with you soon.”
“Look at her, writhing on the floor like a dying eel!” one of the dark bird-things laughed in a coarse male voice. “Some queen she is!”

“Lying like a seal cub, waiting to be clubbed!” the other said in a nearly identical voice.

The woman pulled Aludra up and pressed her full sensual lips to Aludra’s mouth. Aludra tried to resist, but her head swam with the woman’s venomous aphrodisiac. “Oh, I love little ones like you!” the woman cooed.

One of the bird-things turned away and yelled, “Hurry in, you slags! Your Mistress needs you!”

A group of women walked into view. Aludra was shocked to see Irma, Assassin of Fang, leading them. Behind her were those minions of the Marshland Witch, that Elf mercenary with the snake, and the flame-manipulating sorceress.

“Irma…” Aludra tried to reach for her minion. “You betrayed me?”

“My…Queen…?” Irma answered, her voice confused and dull.

“No, she’s too loyal for that,” the woman said. “I had to forcibly take control of her mind to get her to cooperate. She’s my total slave now, so please don’t hold it against her.”

“What do you want?” Aludra struggled to say, fighting against the aphrodisiacs.

“I merely wish to temporarily take Gainos off your hands,” the woman said. “You will be my figurehead for the time being. Keep everything going as you normally do, but I will be the true power. It will only be temporary, I assure you, and if you cooperate, I will reward you handsomely. The power to obliterate all of your enemies…or to find your little sister…”

Aludra was silent. Only her rage kept her from falling completely to the aphrodisiacs, but the mention of her younger sister shook her. She couldn’t trust—or forgive—the mysterious woman after such a humiliation, but she might be useful. She just had to play along until she could take her revenge.

“Very well,” Aludra said. “You win. I’ll do as you say.”

The woman grinned. “Excellent! I knew you’d agree. Now, I just need access to a Queen’s Gate…”

“The Queen’s Gate?” Aludra asked. “Why?”

“You’ll find out,” the woman said with a dismissive wave of her hand. “Echidna, Nix, please take the Queen to her room to rest.”

The two women pulled Aludra to her feet and silently began leading her out of the chamber. “Who are you?” Aludra demanded softly. She thought she was going to pass out, her vision blurring.

“I am Hatsurai the Shadow, the Fifth Exquisite Sovereign.”

~~~

With the Queen’s Gate securely under her power, Hatsurai delved into it. Beautiful fighters across the Multiverse vanished from their homes and battlefields, forcibly drawn through the Queen’s Gate into a strange new world. Some emerged with strange new abilities and weapons. Confused and worried, they wandered in search of answers. Those with hearts tainted by greed, hatred, and selfishness found themselves dreaming of a dark woman, calling them to a place called “Gainos”. These women felt compelled to make the journey, hoping for an answer to their predicament.

One night, Reina, the Exiled Warrior, had lain down to sleep, and heard a voice warning her about a great evil in her land, but there were many allies to potentially help her. When Reina woke, she was somehow certain what she heard was true. But what was she supposed to do?

~~~

Queen’s Blade: Queen’s Gate is a role-playing game where girls from many different series are pulled into the world of Queen’s Blade. One heroine and one villain represent each series since the Queen’s Gate only allows women through. Each character appears randomly somewhere in the world. Please help decide which series should be represented in this story.

More to come shortly

World Guide

Gainos, Queen's Capital (女王の都ガイノス [じょおうのみやこガイノス] Jo'ou no Miyako Gainosu): Gainos is the bustling capital city of the world. Aludra makes her home here, along with thousands of others. It is clean and well-tended, and many items are solid by vendors in the market places. Sites to see include the Cathedral (大聖堂 [だいせいどう] Daiseidou) and the Bazaar of Hobbina (バザール・オブ・ホビーナ Bazaaru obu Hobiina). Popular shops in the Bazaar of Hobbina are “Hanns” (ハンス Hansu) for souvenirs and “Cattleya” (カトレア Katorea) for weapons.

Shelldance, Burgh (自由都市シェルダンス [じゆうとしシェルダンス] Jiyuutoshi Sherudansu): Shelldance is a port town on the cost of the Western Sea. It is ruled by Baron Wiel (ヴェル男爵 [ヴェルだんしゃく] Veru Danshaku) and goods are delivered here to be brought to Gainos.

Vance County (ヴァンス伯爵領 [ヴァンスはくしゃくりょう] Vansu Hakushakuryou): The Vance County is a grassy land dominated by the large castle of Count Vance (ヴァンス伯爵 [ヴァンスはくしゃく] Vansu Hakushaku). It is surrounded by a long wall staffed by soldiers under the command of Claudette.

Elven Forest (エルフの森 [エルフのもり] Erufu no Mori): A gigantic forest in the north of the main continent. The Elves make their home here.

Steel Mountain (鋼鉄山 [こうてつざん] Kotetsuzan): Silver Mountain is the home of the reclusive Dwarves. Few non-Dwarves have been there.

Amara Kingdom (アマラ王国 [アマラおうこく] Amara Oukoku): Amara is a long dead land of the desert. There are stone ruins and sand to be found and perhaps a treasure deadly curse, but not much else.

Hinomoto (ヒノモト Hinomoto) Hinomoto is an island nation ruled by the “Mikado” (ミカド Mikado). Masakado Shrine (マサカド神社 [マサカドじんじゃ] Masakado Jinja) is where Hinomoto's Musha Miko (武者巫女 [むしゃみこ] Musha Miko) reside, graceful and powerful warrior priestesses.

Marshlands (沼地 [ぬまち] Numachi): The Marshlands are the place closest to Hell on the continent and home to the dreaded Marshland Witch (沼地の魔女 [ぬまちのまじょ] Numachi no Majo) and her treasure, the Queen's Gate (クイーンズゲイト Kuiinzu Geito), although recently Aludra had claimed the Queen's Gate for herself. Strange monsters teem here, and it is generally unwise to venture here. Unfortunately, a few of the women summoned by the Queen's Gate would have to appear here.

So do we start by posting series and the two characters we'd want to see from that series, or do we just post profiles?

Both would actually be helpful, but the profiles alone would be fine too.

I think, for this sort of thing, it's better we start by deciding what characters we want included before we get to doing full profiles. That way we don't have someone posting a profile of a certain character when no one's interested in doing one for the corresponding villain.

Very well then. I suppose that would be best for now.

So, to start. These are my suggestions for inclusion:

Fate/Stay Night: (Rider's not really a villian, but this will avoid the inevitable arguments).
Heroine: Saber
Villainess: Rider

Valkyria Chroniclest:
Heroine: Alicia Melchiott
Villainess: Selvaria Bles

BlazBlue: (not suggesting Rachel is hard for me, but I have to admit she's a true neutral character, not really fitting either part).
Heroine: Noel Vermillion
Villainess: ν-13

Soul Calibur: (heroine choice is total bias on my part. if someone complains, we can use Sophitia or someone else who makes more sense).
Heroine: Hildegard von Krone
Villainess: Tira

Disgaea: (again, it's open to debate if this should be flipped. It think it's right like this).
Heroine: Flonne
Villainess: Etna

Hellsing:
Heroine: Seras Victoria
Villainess: Rip van Winkle

Seikon no Qwaser: (this one is heavily biased, and maybe not fair. Ekaterina is just awesome; Eva was easily the most compelling villianess I recall from the manga (hasn't shown in the anime yet though), especially if she's still able to create Eva-Q and Eva-R_.
Heroine: Ekaterina Kurae
Villainess: Eva Silver

Claymore:
Heroine: Claire
Villainess: Priscilla

Code Gess: (I'm not as sure about this one. I cannot see Cornelia as a villain really, regardless of how I try. But thinking hard, I can't find another female more suitable, and I do want my Kallen.)
Heroine: Kallen Kozuki
Villainess: Cornelia li Britannia

I think that's enough for now. I'll give you other people time to discuss these and add to the list.

Pretty good list if I do say so myself.

I would add:

Dead or Alive:
Heroine: Kasumi
Villain: Ayane

Ninja Gaiden:
Heroine: Rachel
Villain: Elizebet

Rider is technically good, as described by the game.

I'm not arguing at all, just clarifying. I want her in this as much as you want Kallen in it, and I do believe Saber has to be in this as well. It wouldn't make sense to exclude her.

Cool. I do know Illya, Sakura or Caster would make more sense, but for your sake I said Rider.

Also, just stickied the thread for convenience.

Those sound reasonable. I like Fate as the heroine and Rider as the villain, just so both can be present.

I suppose Marianne could replace Cornelia, but I personally thought of Cornelia as the villain.

I don't care who appears from Seikon no Qwaser; the important thing is that there are Seikon no Qwaser characters to potentially touch of some erotic scenes. Well, fighting ability is an important qualifier too.

I have idea who would be best as the Soul heroine, so Hildegard is fine with me.

Some pairs I want to include.

Bleach:
Heroine: Rukia Kuchiki
Villain: Tia Harribel

D.Gray-man:
Heroine; Lenalee Lee
Villain: Road Camelot

Blood+:
Heroine: Saya Otonashi
Villain: Diva

One Piece
Heroine: Nami
Villain: Kalifa (I am willing to let anyone argue that Robin would be a sexier heroine and just as appropriate, just Kalifa stays; her power is too brilliant to not include)

Those are good suggestions, Rab.
