Hi there folks.
I'm new to this forum, but I am keen to try and make my own visual novel game.![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm currently brainstorming characters / game elements etc, and wanted to ask a legal question (UK Law or more specifically Scottish Law).
I'm currently thinking the game will involve magic, and one of the features I was going to include in the setting was a sort-of 'magical brothel'. The basic premise being that an illusionist in charge of the establishment can make any of the brothels escorts 'appear' as a person that a customer desires. Sort of like very convincing role-playing with a stranger. The escorts would not be under any judgement impairing influence or have their ability to give/withdraw their consent in any way impaired.
I don't want to create any content that could land me in hot water legally speaking, so I wanted to ask if anyone knows if I would be in legally muddy waters if I created scenes where the customer made some slightly more 'taboo' requests regarding the appearance they requested the illusionist to do for them?
(For example, if a male customer asked the illusionist to make an escort look like their aunt - would I be committing an illegal act by making a scene where the customer and the aunt-looking-escort then had sex?)
Also to be clear, I have no intention of the customers requests dealing with taboo issues such as under-age stuff or bestiality.
As I live in Scotland and don't want the police to come knocking on my door one day, any help with UK law on this topic would be greatly appreciated!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
