Iron Maiden, Mecha Harlot whatnot—its a robot girl that seduces metal.

There were several ideas in mind when I worked with this theme:

• The Iron Maiden: wardrobe, capture, closet and enclose.
• The Magneto: repel, attract.
• The Metal Whisperer: speak to metal, command metal.
• Chow down on the that rock hard… well, rock: consume essence, steal power, grow metal armour & weapon.

Which is sort of amazing how much you can extract from a simple, goony idea. Each of these could be very well enveloped in any aesthetics, a whisperer Dwarf, a Metal Mage… Shame on me for wanting a Mecha Girl in my dungeon crawling RPGs. But the joke actually came from a comic strip:

Real man touches iron.
