Aren’t incubi and succubi the same creatures that just change their form to seduce the desired target?
Other fantasy doesn’t always do that, treating each more as its own race. I’ve seen male succubi and female incubi. It’s kinda hilarious.
Little known fact about D&D succubi: since 4e succubi can change sexes freely. Incubi and succubi are just different forms of the same monster.
Why would they be?
I may be missing something—I wasn’t sure what they were so I looked them up and I found the Wikipedia entry, which makes some mention of medieval lore of them being similar to incubi, but nothing about them being able to change sex at will. Alps don’t exist in D&D either.
They’re not actually sexy women with wings and little horns; that’s just the form they usually use when someone summons them deliberately because it’s the form most summoners want to see. They’re malevolent, shape-shifting extra-dimensional entities, they’re adept at emotional manipulation, they want to drain away a mortal’s soul through physical contact, and they prefer having that contact given willingly. (Maybe the soul is more useful to them like that, or maybe it just tastes better.)
They don’t need to seduce you. Maybe being a mercenary has severed your bonds to your family and your community? Maybe you’ve seen things that you wish you hadn’t? Mommy understands. Mommy will make you all better. Give Mommy a hug…
