Origins
The male counterpart of the Succubus. Although many similar creatures exist in legend, the most valued accounts come from Medieval Europe. In particular are references from the Malleus Maleficarum.
Appearance
Due to their shapeshifting abilities, the appearance of an Incubus is often varied. Some like to take a more human appearance, while others retain a fully demonic mien (horns, wings, tail, etc.). Some even combine the two. However, no matter how their appearance changes, an Incubus is always handsome and physically appealing. Ugly Incubi simply do not exist. Even while in their normal form, most Incubi are highly attractive.
Behavior
An Incubus spends most of his time seducing human females and feeding on the sexual ecstasy caused. Notoriously lazy, an Incubus will spend most of the rest of his time lounging somewhere comfortable until they feel the desire for another tryst with some hapless female (for pleasure or sustenance). Like the Succubi they are very self-centered and manipulative. However, while the succubi use those talents to further schemes, Incubi prefer to just use those talents for personal pleasure, such as setting their female servants against each other. Of the few things an Incubus takes serious, perhaps most notable is a strong dislike for other males (even sometimes other Incubi).
Abilities
Like their children, the Cambion, an Incubus always seems supernaturally attractive and charming. However, Incubi are to Cambions what Cambions are to the socially inept. Due to adept perception of what a female finds attractive and charming, few members of the opposite sex can resist their charms, fewer still would want to. While Incubi feed vampirically off sexual energy, some can also tap more directly into this and drain off the life energy of humans. This replenishes the Incubus, while aging the mortal, and eventually turning them into a lifeless corpse. In addition, the older Incubi are capable of transforming into Succubi to reproduce, through a process very different from that of a human.
