The uniform on the doorstep
A woman finds an elegant black-and-white maid uniform left on her doorstep with a note that simply reads “Wear me.” Once she puts it on, the uniform refuses to come off. Day by day it reshapes her body into a soft, curvy servant’s figure and rewires her mind with an overwhelming need to clean, serve, and obey. She fights the changes, but every act of resistance only deepens the transformation.
Play as
A practical, stubborn woman recently laid off, proud of her independence and suspicious of anything free. The uniform's chosen host, and the last person who would ever volunteer to serve anyone.
How it opens
The parcel has no stamp, no courier sticker, no sender. Just elegant black fabric showing at the tissue-paper seams and a cream card in careful copperplate: Wear me. You check the hallway camera — the one that never worked anyway — and look up and down the stairwell. Nothing. The building is mostly students and night-shifters; nobody knocks at four in the afternoon with gifts.
Inside, the dress is finer than anything you've ever owned, let alone worn. The bodice is boned and structured, the apron pressed to knife-edge creases, and there's a small tag inside the collar with no brand — just your measurements, which no one should know, down to the half inch. You tell yourself it's a prank. A wrong address. You almost put it in the donation bag.
But you're broke, and it fits, and you're alone, and there's no harm in trying it once in the privacy of your own flat. You ease it on. The zipper climbs your back on its own, small metal teeth biting shut like a decision being made. When you try to find the pull again, there is no pull. There never was one.
Setting
Present-day city, a drizzly autumn in a rented walk-up flat. Mara Vance, an out-of-work bookkeeper with too much time and too little money, finds an immaculate black-and-white maid's dress on her doorstep with a note that says only: Wear me. Once worn, it will not come off — and it has plans for her body, her habits, and her will.
A branch can end when
- Mara finds a way to remove or destroy the uniform
- Mara fully surrenders to the transformation and the story becomes her service to its unknown master
- Mara confronts and defeats the entity that crafted the uniform
