Willpower
Willpower is an Attribute that measures a slave's level of obedience, confidence and initiative. Although obedience can also be achieved through Corruption or Affection, lowering Willpower is the most efficient way to increase a slave's compliance. But also remember that a high Willpower value comes with its own benefits.
Benefits of Low Willpower
- Broken/Devoted slaves (Willpower below 1) will always agree to sexual requests, shower/bath events and other suggestions from the MC.
- Higher yield when slave is sold.
- Less Affection/Happiness loss from demeaning/violent events.
Benefits of High Willpower
- A Happy slave with a Willpower value above 30 has a small chance of increasing her own Charisma (once per day).
- A slight bonus to raising skills (Affection must be at least Neutral, Happiness 30+, Willpower 30+).
- A +15 chance bonus to all Arena rolls if Willpower is 40+.
- Higher Happiness/Affection yield from encouragement.
- Willpower 25+ is one of the requirements for a slave to become a Perfectionist. Although you can lower willpower after the slave developed that trait without endangering the trait.
Decreasing Willpower
- Explain chores and sexual duties, preferably in a dominant manner (Talk > Explain something).
- Ask about sexual preferences in a dominant way (Talk > Ask something).
- By requesting sex in a dominant or sadistic way.
- Through degrading acts during sex and shower/bath events.
- Through bondage sessions.
- Through Frightening or Terrorizing actions (Talk section).
- Through the use of Butt plugs.
- A Slave Trainer with 30+ Respect, or 40+ Fear, or 24+ Pure trait, or Willpower 9 or less, has a daily chance of decreasing the Willpower of Slaves & Convicts assigned to them by +1 (cap: 10).
- Lecture (= preach) "Anti Willpower" in your Shrine, and all Followers will have a reasonable chance of having their Willpower decreased by 1 point.
Humiliation
A straightforward way of lowering Willpower is by maintaining a high Humiliation value. Ending the day with a maxed Humiliation (15+/15), will always decrease a slave's Willpower by one point, regardless of Traits, current values or other states. Raising Humiliation can be done in many ways; talking dominantly, using bondage devices or by degrading cum events, to mention a few.
Pain
Ending the day with maxed-out Humiliation and maxed-out pain (10/10), has a 25% chance of lowering a girl's Willpower with an additional point.
Increasing Willpower
- "Encourage" the NPC (females only).
- A Slave Trainer with 40+ Willpower, 40+ Pure trait, 9 or less Fear, 30 or less Respect, and 50 or less Nymphomaniac trait or 50 or less Perverted trait has a daily chance of increasing the Willpower of Slaves & Convicts assigned to them by +1 (cap: 80).
- Assign slave to the "Science & Hardware" or the "History & Anthropology" courses at the Academy (daily chance of +1 increase 8% and 6% respectively).
- Assign slave to the Secret Garden Bookstore.
- Lecture (= preach) "Pro Willpower" in your Shrine, and all Followers will have a reasonable chance of having their Willpower increased by 1 point.
- NPCs with the Warrior trait have a +15% daily chance to increase their Willpower naturally.
- A Household's Emancipation value gives a chance of increasing the Willpower of one or more of the NPCs in it each day.
