Jayu and Dani decided to start by figuring who they knew from their previous lives as Jay and Dan who seemed like Amazon material. The first possibility that came to mind was a guy, Jerry, they knew from role-playing gaming. Jerry was notorious for taking only female avatars, and usually warrior women, too. He also was something of a stereotypical gaming and comics nerd without a whole lot else going on in his life and no close relationships.
"Jerry?" said Jayu, when he answered the door.
"Yeah, who are you?"
"My name's Jayu. I want to ask you a favor."
Jerry's eyes were fixed on the two muscular, strangely dressed black women at his door. Something about them aroused a curiosity and excitement that overruled his instincts to just shut the door and go back to web-surfing.
"OK, shoot. You can ask."
Shawna had been very clear that only people who voluntarily chose Amazonhood were worthy of being Amazons. No just zapping people at random. But there was no rule against giving a free sample.
Jayu grinned. "Hold still for a minute." She nudged Dani, who hit the send button on the emitter. The body chosen had closely matched Jerry's avatars.
"What have you done?" said the lean, powerfully built Amazon who had replaced the overweight Asian guy standing on Jerry's doorstep.
"Here's the deal, Jerry. First, it's strictly provisional. You want to go back to being Jerry, no problem. Second, I used to be Jay, and my friend here used to be Dan. We're now recruiting for an Amazon army to restore our beloved Queen Shawna, who used to be Sean, to the throne on another planet. May we come inside?"
The new Jerry stopped running her hands over her new body long enough to open the door and let Jayu and Dani inside. Dani took over. "Let me tell you what you're getting. That body has the strength and speed of an Olympic level athlete. If you sign up, we'll give you weapons skills equivalent to roughly a fourth level D & D fighter, from which you can work your way up. You'll also like the orgasms."
Jayu demonstratively looked around Jerry's small, messy, bug-filled apartment. "Jerry, what's keeping you here?"
Jerry unconsciously adopted the identical pose displayed by Lucy Lawless on the poster above his computer. Jayu tried hard to keep from grinning. They had him.
"This is probably the best virtual reality scenario on the planet, or I'm dreaming, but yeah. I don't have to have sex with guys, do I?"
"No, it's an Amazon society. We're all dykes."
"Cool!"
