The XX Factor!
By Ratlaf

Those two XX’s are meant to be the Roman Numeral 20! 

Here’s the concept:  20 Men around the world are (granted the power of) (injected/implanted with a ___ which causes) (wish for) (changed by aliens) (or whatever you can create) [You pick] the following:  Every 20th woman (5%) who comes within a radius of 20 feet, will over the next 20 hours grow 20 inches taller and 20 times more muscular. 

For example, the guy in question boards an airplane and we’ll estimate there’s about 60 women on the plane, three of those women will then turn into Amazons within the next day.  Also, assuming the average woman can curl at least 10 pounds, she would then be able to curl, with one hand, 200 plus pounds!

Each author gets to write about one of those 20 men and how their lives are affected and how they go about spreading (or not spreading) the Amazon blessing/curse throughout the world.

Multiple transformations are allowed (up to three total) if an already transformed woman happens to be the 20th woman within range of one of the 20 men.  For example, girlfriends, wives, mothers, daughters (keep it legal!!!) who have more contact with one of the men would be more likely to receive multiple transformations.  The changes are genetic and hereditary only from mother to daughter.

There is a Detective on this case who’s trying to put all the pieces together, his name is Carl Morris and he specializes in paranormal investigations of FMG and GTS.  He should make an appearance in each of the 20 stories, or at least be mentioned/referenced in some way.

I’m going to start on my 1 of 20 guys’ stories and will post parts of it soon!
Thanks for, hopefully, participating…!

It does sound intereting. I do have a couple of questions though.

First off, how much freedom do participating writers have with the transformations? Does growth have to be the specified ammmounts in the specified time, or can we change things around to suit our preferences, provided that we follow the 20 pattern?

Also, are there any other specifications that participants should be aware of? These would be things like sexual content, story length, etc.?

One last thing: this detective, Carl Morris, is supposed to be in every story, which is fine. It gives all of the stories a feel of continuity. However, it's kind of hard to write him in with just a name, unless we only give him a breif mention. Could you please post a short description of him so that we have something more to work with?

Well it would be amusing if he was as much an urban legend as the crypto-gynoids he tracked.

"There's a PI by the name of Carl Morris, he doesn't appear in any of our records except for his license. His client is Nozama Industries so we're stuck cooperating with him on this."

"That Morris guy, always looking at my shoes as if he expected my feet to burst out of them at any moment"

"Looked like he was haunted by something, later on he told us a hurricane ruined his life. Little did we know that it was on two feet and used to Carl's last name"

"The worst of it wasn't the lives transformed or the roles shattered. The real rub was it all could have been avoided had we just listened to that tweedy git Morris"

Perhaps Mr.Morris could be whatever we needed him to be in the story. If details conflict or make absolutely no sense that might just be conflicting 'accounts' of his very existence. There could be a thread of self-awareness also in that Mr.Morris would have in advantage in knowing the 'shticks' of the genre and how bestto avoid being smothered by them. Normal fiction folks wouldn't have that advantage.  8)

I like where this is going. Especially the part in bold letters.  8)

1. Freedom: Sure as much as you'd like, I'm just providing the concept, it's up to all of us to flesh it out however we'd like.

2. Sexual content: I'd say adhere to the rules of this site.  Story length: As much or as little as you're able to.

3. Carl Morris: Cowprobe described it better than I ever could've.

I hope this helps and I'm sure Pixie would love to encounter one of these men at just the right time…  ;D
