General Information

Succubi are a humanoid female species of demon noted for their horns and tail, as well as their attractive figure. These demons are also known for their high libido.

Arcane

Succubi like all demons have a genetic trait allowing them to make use of arcane abilities. This allows for the use of N space, to alter their appearance and for those with training, to make use of N space portals for near instant transportation. Ritual use of these and other arcane abilities also form part of their religion.

Biology

The skeletal structure of succubi follow the hydrostatic standard of most vertebrates, supporting the weight and musculature though the bones themselves are very thin, an advantage in flight. The wings structure blend into the back and fade into what is believed to be N space, meaning that they pass into the skin of the back and apparently disappear completely, only to be exposed when flight is needed. The tail of the succubi is prehensile and able to grip onto objects or their prey. The horns do not appear to have any practical use, but may be early evolutionary baggage. However, the horns may serve as a cultural symbol of status or sexual maturity. Scent glands in the wrists of the succubi emit a pheromone that causes arousal in humans and some inhumans and the succubi able to “blow kisses” to direct the pheromones towards intended targets. Succubi are not solely dependent on the spirit or life-forces of their prey for sustenance and can and do eat normal foods and drink. However they do require life force for existence. This leads to the main interactions between them and humans. This has led to many succubi working in human sex industry where they are able to make a living, and feed at the same time. Of course in such things, the death of the human is avoided.

Society

Succubi culture on the whole is reminiscent of Imperial cultures with classes of High and Low born demons depending on the family, and of the mancipation of their brother species, the Incubi. Status and rank feature highly as well as devotion towards the patron deity known as Nyx.

Religion

Most succubi revere Nyx as their patron goddess and invoke her name in many dealings they have with each other. Organized temples exist in most centers where succubi live, and many high born succubi have spent time serving as priestesses or acolytes. This places the religion as a powerful organization in their culture. Rituals invoked during worship often involve the use of arcane abilities, and or sexual activities.

Views on other races.

Many highborn succubi consider their species to be the most pure of demon species, and consider most other species of demons and inhumans to be second class, and that humans are merely a food source. Younger succubi can take this to extremes and exhibit racist behavior.
