Lily (Dreams of Control Universe): Difference between revisions

*1) They can read minds. They can read a person's whole life story in the blink of an eye.

*2) They can increase lust to any degree (including a physically painful level) in the hearts of those who are already lustful. The object of this lust can be specified.

*3) They are physically indestructible and do not age.  

*4) They produce "succubus milk," a caramel-colored milk which flows from their breasts just like normal human breast-milk. It is incredibly tasty (according to Simon it is sweet and spicy at once) and it can "steal the minds" of those who taste it. They can, however, moderate its addictive power if commanded to do so.  

*5) They can create a completely convincing multi-sensory illusion of any physical object, including gold, gems, passports, airplane tickets and clothing.

*6) Their sexual fluids have a broad variety of properties which are limited only by the imagination and desire of the summoner.

*7) Anything they swallow disappears. (They can eat and drink, but do not excrete accordingly - though if the summoner bends that way, see #5.) This is more useful than it might seem, as at one point Lily mentions that that's how she got rid of a magical entity someone had summoned to try to get out of a bargain: she couldn't physically destroy it, so she ripped it to pieces and ate it.

 

*1) They cannot increase lust in the minds of people whose hearts are pure, or in children.

*2) They cannot affect animals.

*3) If they speak one of the names of God (including just "God") they are instantly "struck down" (destroyed) by that Entity.

*4) Their abilities are strictly proscribed when it comes to the person who summoned them, assuming the ritual was properly done. They can't read their minds or increase their lust without permission, and succubus milk is not addictive to the summoner.

*5) Any physical object they create vanishes if they get more than a few feet from it.

*6) They cannot violate the pact of summoning, the bargain they make with the person who summons them into the physical world. However, they can interpret it ''extremely'' creatively.

*7) Christian priests and/or holy places are a danger to them in some unspecified way. (Lily says that she won't go ''near'' a church, as this would be "too close to an order to destroy myself.")
