First Stage: It's strange, but lately your mannerisms seem to have become a bit more feminine.
Eric(a): "It's probably because since I arrived at this camp, I'm constantly surrounded only by girls. Nothing to worry about."
Second Stage: Lately the way you act has changed in numerous, small ways. You seem to unconsciously have adopted several somewhat feminine movements and mannerisms.
Eric(a): "It's probably because since I arrived at this camp, I'm constantly surrounded only by girls. I should go back to normal when I get back home. Why do I feel that is easier said than done?"
Third Stage: Lately you cannot help but act very feminine and polite toward a select few people, like the staff at camp, and very girly in general. The effect is strange to say the least.
Eric(a): "Something has definitely changed about me. Whenever I refer to any of the staff like Miss Olivia, I can't help but refer to her as Miss Olivia. It's impossible to resist, as if something inside of me just has to do it. It's really good though, I mean, not bad... no...!? Argh, it's so hard to think about this! I know that acting like this is right, but at the same time..."
The Feminine Mannerisms Transformation is a mental transformation that subtly adjusts Eric(a)'s behaviour to be more traditionally feminine (without actually making them more accepting of being feminine.) Each stage of this transformation gives one Girl Score.
Gaining
- Wendy - Lovely Barricade: Learning the spell Lovely Barricade from Wendy will give one stage of this transformation. There are two opportunities for this. The first opportunity is during the fight against Veronica and Garak at the Tomb of Garak. If the first offer was declined, then there is a second chance to learn it after the Alaska Mission (provided the Library has been visited).
- Siphon the Insanity Core: Siphoning the Insanity Core grants this transformation as well as +10 MDF and the spell Insanity Field.
- Mermaid Magic Overdose: During the Return to Mermaid Caves quest, if Eric(a) is used as a test subject by Alice in the mermaids' temple and subsequently helps Eliza steal from the chief mage of the mermaids, the resulting cursed magic will force a transformation overnight. Wendy will inform Eric(a) accordingly, just outside the dorm the next day. Should Wendy happen to hate Eric(a) at that time from the conversation with Shelly going poorly, the transformation will actually raise by two (up to the maximum of three.) Incidentally this will also have Eric(a) and Wendy make up, resetting their relationship to neutral.
Removal
- Mind Cleansing Pearl: The Mind Cleansing Pearl is one possible reward for completing the return to Mermaid Caves. Using it allows for the removal of a mental transformation, including a single level of this one.
