The Succubus Coven (Sociolotron)
For other uses of the word Succubus, see Succubus (disambiguation).
Sociolotron is one of the oldest MMORPGs that involves sex themes explicitly, opening beta testing in 2002 and currently boasting thousands of members. Within this game is a group known as The Succubus Coven.
Cults in Sociolotron
In the near anarchy that is our post apocalyptic world, two major cults have emerged to vie for control of the hearts and minds of London's citizens. Philosophically these cults are diametrically opposed. An unsteady truce does prevail, but violence simmers just beneath the surface.
The Succubus Cult
While the origin of the Succubus is lost in the mists of time, we do know from ancient myth that they are demons or sexual vampires. The Succubus acquires power by absorbing the sexual energy of their victims. Long dormant… they have returned to the city's dark shadows in force.
In London, the word Succubus is synonymous with magic, debauchery and promiscuity. Cult members often live in dark alleys and seedy bars; shunned by polite society and hunted by their enemies. But Succubus claim that they are misunderstood and liken themselves to the "flower child" peace movement of the mid-twentieth century. They claim only to use magic for defense and to increase sexual appetites and sensitivities.
Inquisition Cult
The Inquisition Cult traces its methods to the absolutist philosophies and religions of medieval times. Philosophically, they shun sexual promiscuity and expound… with force… a rigid moral code. This moral code proscribes (at least officially) all forms of public, extramarital or unusual sexual activity.
The Inquisition view themselves as righteous defenders of London's moral values. They are often critical of the government's lax moral stance and at times they take it upon themselves to clean up London's streets. The Inquisition Cult is powerful and prone to violence; it stands poised to enforce its iron will.
Summoning
But both cults have a dark violent side. Upon leaving this world, high ranking cultists take their place as powerful demons in the bowels of hell. Through the use of magic and ritual, Succubus Witches and Grand Inquisitors are able to summon these demons back to London to do their bidding. Long of this world, these demons often have little in common with the living cult members of the same name. And, too often, they garner power from acts of violence against opposing cult members.
The Coven
Long ago in a dark cave in the depths of the ancient forest at the foot of the Caucasus Mountains a wise and powerful Succubus witch formed a secretive association called The Coven. Her name was Dark Vykos, a beautiful daughter of the dreaded vampire Sasha Vykos. The Coven was formed in blood and lives yet today in the heart of post apocalyptic London.
Little can be said of its doings except that it exists to amass communal power and wealth for its members through the use of the dark powers of the Succubus. But it is well known that it members follow the so called Five Vials of the Coven:
The Five Vials of the Coven
- Co-Operation - Coven members work together to achieve common goals.
- Openness - The Coven is non elitist…it is open to all of similar views.
- Vengeance - Coven members are vengeful…a wrong done to one member is a wrong done to all.
- Energy - Coven members value sexual energy in most forms. Coven members scorn any moral code (except the all powerful EULA of Sociolotron) which would limit in-game sexual activity between consenting adults.
- Non-Violence - Coven members deplore violence in all forms, except in cases of self defense and vengeance.
The above tenets of the Coven are said to be represented by five vials of magical potions… each rumored to bestow strange and powerful sexual powers. Each vial is worth a king's ransom and is kept in separate London locations. These locations serve as meeting places for exotic initiation rites and dark and mysterious sexual orgies.
