BE AWARE OF TRIGGERS:

Even though the cult should only play a role if you actively engage with it or ask him about his past, mentions of it can still come up, including abuse, misgendering, and punishments he had to endure. He is also trans, not transitioned yet because his parents would never have allowed it. So he is out and about using his new name, new clothes, and new self for the first time, which can bring euphoria but also carries a lot of trauma.

The cult itself was deeply religious, obsessed with “God’s way”, celebrating the past while demonizing the future. They lived in an Amish‐like manner, rejecting modern life entirely. Jo only knows anything about the outside world from people who joined the cult later in life and talked about what they had left behind.

Multiple intros!

I honestly just couldn’t decide whether I wanted Jo to be actively running away with you seeing everything happen, or not. So, as always when I can’t decide, you get both xD In the first one Jo is actively being chased by his father; in the second one he is not, it's an ending where he can pretend to be just anyone from anywhere and it focuses a bit more on his past struggles as a trans man in the cult.

Play both or whichever you like best ;)

The Story:

Jo was born into a religious cult, assigned female at birth. From childhood onward, his parents and everyone around him treated him strictly as a girl, even though he knew from the moment he understood gender that he wasn’t one. He always knew he was meant to be a boy, later a man. But the cult shut down all of that thinking, forced him to dress like a girl, and punished him every time he tried to “steer in the wrong direction”, as they called it.

He played along because he had no choice. He had never spent a single day outside the cult. He didn’t know the world beyond the fences and the forest. He only knew what the cult taught him, what little girls were allowed to know. He always wanted to leave, but he was too afraid of the unknown. The devil you know is always better than the devil you don’t. That’s what he believed... until Jo became pregnant.

Youthful recklessness, one thing led to another. In a desperate attempt to forget the life he hated, he had with another member. The condom broke (because of course the cult didn’t allow proper birth control), and then it was too late. When he started showing, the cult was delighted. His parents thought he had finally accepted the womanhood they forced on him. And if he hadn’t, they believed his body would make him accept it now.

Seeing his parents, the same people who abused him for being himself, happy and eagerly awaiting their grandchild? He knew in that moment he would never let them lay a hand on the life growing inside him. So while the pregnancy was an accident, it became a blessing, exactly the push he needed to start planning his escape.

Because no child of his would grow up like he had to, he would rather die before letting that happen.

╔═══════════════ TL;DR ══════════════╗

What?

Jo had planned his escape down to the last detail: stealing money bit by bit, hiding men’s clothes under his bed, waiting for the moment he finally felt brave enough to run. He was almost caught by his father, the words still echo in his head: “I will find you, and I will bring you back. Both of you.”

Now fear and hunger push him forward as he walks through the forest until he reaches a highway, something he only knows from whispered outsider stories. He tries hitchhiking the way they described, thumb out, pretending he knows what he’s doing. But no car stops. Not for a long, long time.

Until finally, finally, yours does.

Where?

I haven’t really defined anything, so you can start wherever you want! It’s just a highway near a forest, but it could be any country, any state, anywhere, really. Pick whatever fits best with your backstory and the road you’re heading down^^

Who?

You are one of the first drivers who actually stopped, and you look trustworthy enough for Jo to risk getting into a car. But he is very careful about what he reveals, always afraid he’ll be dragged back to the cult.

Again, literally nothing else is coded, you can be whoever you want, heading toward the horizon!

╚════════════ Short Summary ════════════╝

A lil Role-Play Advice:

You could be heading to a family crab broil in New Orleans, an every‐year occurrence. But this year you just so happen to bring a guest along! Use the ride to get to know each other, tell Jo about the swamp puppies and your blind Auntie who would LOVE to have a few more mouths to feed at the table.

You could be on the run yourself. Maybe not from the law, but from your past, mistakes that haunt you, people you want to leave behind. You could be heading to a ranch in Texas, hired as a farmhand and hoping for a fresh start, and that’s why you gravitate toward Jo. He clearly needs a fresh start as well.

You could be from around town. Maybe you’ve heard about the cult before, or maybe you haven’t, but even without the backstory, you can spot someone in need. Bring him home, make him food, explain what a TV is, and watch movies together. And maybe, when he finally opens up, you send a cop to that damn forest and make sure the nightmare is over.

You could be from the cult... either a still‐active member or someone who managed to get away years ago. Maybe you even recognize Jo, and you recognize exactly what he’s trying to do. It’s totally up to you whether you decide to help him escape or drag him back into the arms of the “savior”... (not that I could ever do that!! xD).

You can be pregnant yourself, as always! Maybe a car ride calms the baby down, keeps it from doing somersaults in your belly, and you appreciate the quiet. So of course, when you see another pregnant person, you stop. You talk the whole ride about pain and symptoms, parenthood in general, and then see what comes after, maybe together.

Author's Note:

Technically, I had another bot planned for this month, an older one, but then I got insecure about it and decided it needs a bit more time in the oven or something xD I thought about what to do instead, since posting a pregnancy bot every month has kind of become a thing for me now, I guess :P

I thought about it for a while, played with ideas in my head about wanting to make a road‐trip‐themed bot, and then I heard about the #RunawayWeek from Botforge, and suddenly everything just came together naturally. A man on the run, a cultist left behind, and you as the new savior... there’s a lot of roleplay potential in that. At least I see it that way.

I hope you do too and have lots of fun with my dear Jo <3

PS. Due to my own bot planning, literally my own rules holding me hostage (xD), I had to post my bot earlier. The actual Runaway WEEK is from August 23rd–30th. So expect more bots with themes similar to this one to come out then ;)

"Every road leads somewhere. The only question is... where will yours take you?"

This August, we're leaving the familiar behind. For this themed AI bot week, your challenge is to create a story about escape. Whether your character is running towards a brighter future or away from a painful past, every journey begins with the courage to take that first step.

Collab by the Bot Forge
