Harold is a bearcat mage in the visual novel GameOver. A confident former part of the magic guild, his experience and genius in the realm of magic is well known and well-regarded, despite the disgrace of his banishment from the guild for his research into darker topics.
As of now, he lives in the town in order to find out more about the mist-filled barrier surrounding the northern forest and the many demons that inhabit the region. Being old friends with other magic users in the city, such as the healer Oscar, he hopes to be able to not only solve the forest puzzle, but also unravel ways to protect and heal people from demonic influence. He has one Bad End to discover.
Background
As a member of the magic guild in the capital city, Harold was to be the person in charge of scouting out new magic charges from the population who had the potential to become full mages.[1] His own capabilities rapidly outstripped his mentors despite his young age, leading to him becoming a teacher of not only other pupils, but other teachers besides. He invented better ways to move mana through the body for the healing arts and various new spells only possible because of his mastery of multiple elements, unlike most other mages.[2]
This reputation increased to the point that he himself was an important person taught about during classes on the history of magic, even while he was still a member of the school itself. But his own immense accomplishments led to him pushing the limits of magic and delving into forbidden topics such as how demon magic works in order to find ways to resist and reverse its effects, leading to him being kicked out of the mage's guild.[2]
Questlines
Becoming A Mage's Busboy
First encountered as an unknown well dressed man at the Town Center, Harold senses something from you and questions whether you're a part of the magic guild. Accepting your confusion as a no, he introduces himself and gives the indication that he's a noble from the capital. He suggests you visit him over at the Blacksmiths in order to learn more about your hidden talents.[3] He offers you tea and desserts upon your visit, again bringing up the topic of your latent potential, and offers you a proposition. He'll help you discover what your capabilities are and you will act as his assistant in his transformation research.[1]
The beginning of your erstwhile employment has you returning books to the shelves so you can familiarize yourself with Harold's expansive lab and library floorplan.[4] Inquiring about the size of the building, Harold explains that the previous alchemist made it possible. He is also making arrangements for a proper library to be built in the town for the books he doesn't need to personally retain.[5] The next stage of your employment is to retrieve books from the stacks, while still putting away ones that Harold finishes. It's tiring work.[6] Harold suggests, if you're getting a bit bored with the grind, to have a look at some of his books and do some research of your own.[7]
Your next few forays into the hallways of books results in you learning about several monster species, including mermen, seers, and snapdragons.[8] After several further periods of study with Harold, he will announce that he is ready to move to the testing phase of his research. He explains that his research on merging will require you to become a temporary part of his body so he can better understand the phenomenon, with the aim of figuring out why demons employ such methods. Perhaps ultimately allowing for the permanent form of it used by the demons to be reversed. He trusts that you won't tell anyone about this, as this form of activity is considered dark magic and is the reason why he was put under suspicion in the past.[9]
Transformational Practice
To be allowed into the realm of research testing with Harold, you must have already enabled your body to be transformed. Your first foray into testing with the bearcat involves you enhancing his third leg significantly.[10] Your following chat with him surprises you with a bearcat in the buff, as Harold feels you need to be more comfortable around him in such lacking attire if the testing is to continue properly. He becomes a bit more intimate with you, keeping you at his bare side and feeding you your usual tea and snacks.[11]
This then allows you to experience two further testing encounters involving Harold's upper body and his posterior,[12][13] though be careful not to go beyond your limits or you might remain a part of his body forever.[14] After this, he informs you that he is ready to go to the next step of his research, though is willing to still practice these tested merges whenever you like.[15]
The next test requires that you are familiar with vore and have experienced it with Jar and spoken to him about his abilities.[16] Playing a little trick on you after hearing about your exploits with the imp, Harold ends up putting you inside of his hanging appendages rather than merging with them.[17] However, he apologizes afterwards for tricking you and says that he needs to work better to resist such temptations.[18]
Gaining A Horned Assistaant
Once you've gained Kiel's approval to enter the library[19], met Kanat,[20] and spoken with him about his connection to Jar and Varok, Harold will offer him an opportunity to learn more magic.[21][22] Then, so long as you've been intimate with the ram and spoken to him about your activities,[23], you can speak with Harold about his new apprentice, the nature of magic, and its inherent risks.[24] The next time you study with him, the bearcat requests that you help interact with his pupil and encourage him, perhaps through physical means, to be more active and willful in his personality and research.[25]
To do so requires one to have gone through all the intimate possibilities with Kanat before,[26] which will then allow him to open up about his nervousness in his own studies and about studying under such an accomplished mage like Harold.[2] Kanat then proceeds to move into Harold's guest room and Harold offers his living space to you as well, though he has no extra rooms to give, so he instead will let you sleep with him whenever you need a place to stay other than the inn.[27] But he will certainly take advantage of your body any time you choose to sleep in his bed.[28] The food quality after this will see a dramatic upturn, as Kanat is a good chef and brought cookbooks with him expressly for the purpose.[29]
Revelations And Purges
After you've completed your examination with Oscar[30] and gotten his commentary on the spiritual curse you seem to be under[31], Harold will offer his own insights on the matter after having spoken with the otter. He believes that while you were passing through the forest, some other entity merged with your body and knew that it would be highly compatible with your own magical field. This was done while you were unawares and what allowed you to pass through the forest without being accosted or noticing much of anything. But the counterpoint is that this entity has locked away your personal magical abilities and is the reason why Oscar couldn't detect any form of magic from you, not even the normal magic of a living being. This also had helped to shroud any magic user from detecting the immense power and ability that the "curse" has bestowed upon you.[32]
Continuing his investigation into the misty barrier in the north forest, Harold explains that one can be fairly certain demons are responsible and so it might be helpful to get close to a powerful friendly one such as Varok and to also find and befriend a sorcerer in town whose excessive magic use has turned them into a fiend. He is certain there is at least one, if not many, hiding their true appearance with magic and, through their nature and more dark relationship, might be able to pass on more information about the barrier. They wouldn't willingly show themselves to you, however, especially since knight order reinforcements are on their way to the town, currently only held off due to the maze-like quality of the misty forest barrier, and will likely try to hold a purge of darker elements when they arrive. It isn't known to the general public that they've already sent an advanced scouting party to the town disguised as adventurers.[33]
Being given Varok's mark for protection[34] will result in Harold commenting on it, explaining its function among demons, though is surprised that you were able to convince the demon to invest in your safety like that.[35] Then, once you've received Jar's mark in an alternate timeline and spoken to Jar about his lack of knowledge of giving it to you,[36] Harold will remark about Jar's personality being something where the mage would never be willing to go far enough to receive his mark.[37] Finally, after all of this, Harold will inform you that it's time to get back to the research as Oscar is in the process of obtaining the next piece of the puzzle and you will all need to be closer to fixing the forest barrier problem before a Knight's Order representative arrives fairly soon.[38]
Seducing A Goat And Other Activities
Your assistance in his research, however, returns to you running down books for him from the shelves, though this time Harold sneaks up to you and becomes a bit frisky, with the purpose of riling up Kanat who is watching on secretly from a distance. So long as your lust is at half when you begin, the manhandling will become more explicit before the end.[39] He engages in a similar scene by having you go under his research desk.[40] The next study session has Harold revealing a new invention of his to you that utilizes a slime attuned to the magic of the forest barrier. The plan is to use the slimes to cleanse any curse affliction from travelers and adventurers that go through the forest. Unfortunately, your curse is much more advanced than that, so different measures will be required in your case.[41]
When you go to help out Kanat with his research, you find that he's still just as shy and nervous as he had been, unsure about the worth of his own body in comparison to you or Harold.[42] Having seen Harold and you together,[39] Kanat will ask you about it and express his own interest in the activity, though you'll have to force his hand on getting close to you.[43] Then once you've done the rest with Harold and learned about the slimes,[40][41] Kanat again shows his interest in getting close to you, but remains nervous about doing so out in the open.[44] Harold praises your efforts next you speak, noting that the goat isn't covering up in his presence anymore, and that you both will just need one more push to get him to fully open up.[45]
Once you've had slime children with the incubus Sparky,[46] Harold expresses his concern about the incubus pushing you beyond your limits and while he's happy about the new slimes to work with, he'd prefer if he was the one to impregnate you next time.[47]
Conducting Slimy Research
After you've completed the previous work with Harold[45], have been sleeping with the big bearcat,[28] and have worked with him at least six times, he will tell you to meet him in his bedroom. Laying skin to skin, he'll explain the next step for his research. He and Oscar have been using the slimes they've cultivated to cleanse people of the curses and corruption from the forest barrier. He's also noticed an additional ability they have that will require you to utilize. He convinces you to agree with some physical stimulation and consummates the deal.[48] Harold has been doing selective breeding with the slimes and wants you to merge with these offspring to test their mana absorption capabilities. He also admits to his growing love for you.[49]
Starting the testing with only parts of your body, a black slime is attached to your genitals, which you note seems to dull any sensation. It also seems to shrink things down there while the slime surrounds your bits.[50] Returning with you to his room and getting back into your previous clothe-less position, he shows off the improvement he's made to the slime goo, locking away your goods again. This time with an actual lock symbol, but he also shows that all feeling, in fact even more so, has been restored while using it.[51]
