THE SUCCUBI

all through every forest
above the trees
within my stomach
scraped off my knees
i drink the honey
inside your hive
you are the reason
i stay alive

"So what kind of Magic is this again Orchid?"

"Sex magic, I told you." The Lithe Demon dug her long nail into her Mistresses' dress, shredding it "Carnal delight" and tore it off with one flick of her muscled wrist. "Passion and fire" The long fingers wrapped around her bra and wrenched that off too, jerking the cold body of the Caitiff towards her. "Giving yourself over to absolute pleasure without feeling guilty or selfish." Her fingers grazed over the Vampires milk white belly, eliciting a shiver. "Enjoyment without sin" the fingers hooked around Shades panties "Gratification of the senses" and they too are ripped off and discarded. "Human morality is only happy when it suffers for its satisfaction Shade my darling." The Succubus leans forward and begins to kiss the Vampires shoulder. "They deny the apotheosis found in ecstasy and limit themselves and their possibilities. The endowments of the blood are nothing compared to the power of Rapture!"

The Caitiff's reasoning mind goes blank. Only the feel of her Demon lover's warm flesh registers. Her whole body responds with every atom. Yearning for more. The ache between her legs is matched by the ache in her heart. Endless life and boundless joy merge in a song of serene lust that transcends the kiss, the embrace, the rush that comes from a successful diablerie. Energies build. A Vortex of licentious power dances around the couple and fills Orchid with strength. The walls of the Caitiff Witch's inner sanctum breathe and let out a sigh. Carefully painted sigils and exactingly positioned candles shimmer as the walls between the world's ripple and contract. The tendrils of Desire snake out across the city like empathic smoke.

In an apartment uptown they find a young couple. He is too stressed from his financial job for her. She feels unloved. Her attitude problem, as he calls it is doing his head in. He looks at her, a snarled comment on his lips. But then he catches the way she watches him. Angry, spiteful, hate filled. Her venom stirs him and he reaches out, grabbing her ankle and pulling her closer. Primal urges awaken in both of them as he throws her onto her belly and tugs her dress up. They expend all their hatred for each other by fucking like rabbits and fall asleep on the floor in each others arms.

Jingo is a DJ, an artist of the mixing decks heading for something big one day. Already some of his mixes of hot names have been dancefloor hits. But ever since he mixed a track for those punks with the died red hair and pierced faces he has felt listless and unmotivated, all his Glamour spent. Sure the boys had been fun, and the trips had been amazing. He'd seen real dragons on one drug fuelled escapade and all the boys had looked like monsters with sharks teeth and blood dripping hair. But since they had shot through, he just couldn't be bothered. As the passionate echoes of the Succubus art find him in his studio, he gets an idea. He throws the bottle of Vodka away and starts ransacking his vinyl collection. A song he heard in a club a week or two back, one of the old classics.

By Morning he has remixed Peggy Lee's 'Fever' with a few NIN samples and some of his own beats into a track that is so grindingly down and dirty he calls a bunch of DJ's on the west coast and plays it to them despite their complaints about it being the middle of the night. By midweek its already the talk of the Club circuit.

The energy born of Shade and Orchid's coupling flows across the city. Each fire of passion it ignites feeds it and strengthens it. By the time it gets out to sea and dissipates from lack of hearts to effects, it has stirred up a storm. Tomorrow will be windy and rainy as hell. The Elements themselves stirred to unseasonable passion.

"What do you want Shade?" she asks.

"You" Shade replies

"That isn't why you summoned me, there has to be a reason beyond sex."

"Probably, but I don't care"

"Shade, I am happy to fuck you every night until the percussion comes and all your kind are gone, but I came here as an agent of the Dark Mother. I am Orchid, mothered by Gulfora, the Whore of Babylon, wanton of the ancient world, I am here to do your bidding."

"Ask me again tomorrow Baby, I don't want anything right now, except to cum!"

"As you wish Mistress. I will wait another day. After all, I am your slave until I have done what you summoned me for"

"And if I never remember why I really summoned you?"

"Then I'll be your Slave forever my Love."

"Sounds Goo…..OooooooooooooohhhhhH YEEEEEEESSSSSSS"

Orchid smiles to herself, concentrating her millennia of bedroom skills into satisfying her meal ticket.

"Love conquers all. I should know. I've been sacked, seiged, razed, raped and pillaged by it."

Nicknames: Hell breeders, Lilith's wombs, Sluts, whores etc etc

Description
'Sex can be many things …. It can be animal, fatal, it is political, natural, it is a weapon, it is illegal in some countries, it is about control: there is even some particularly vicious propaganda out there that says it is something to do with love.'
- Louise Kean, Boyfriend in a dress

Hedonistic and primal, the Succubus are the results of mankind's ability to procreate. Without Lust we would never have dragged ourselves from the oceans, but when lust becomes an inordinate craving it leads to darker desires. The Succubi are both the least insidious and most human of the Jokashar. They give us what we want and take in turn nothing that we do not willingly give. As the favourite children of the Dark Mother, the Succubi are the breeding grounds for a billion baby demons, and it is by their fertility that she is truly called the mother of monsters.

Presidents, Loyal husbands, priests, TV evangelists and commanders are all made equal by their lust. An easy fuck can bring them all to their knees, pardon the pun. The Succubi are the most important agents in the field for Lilith and her court. They are the providers of her troops, both by procreation and by corruption.

From the Geisha of Japan to the courtiers of France, the high Class hookers of Washington to the temple prostitutes of Babylon, Egypt, India and Rome, the Succubus wield a great deal of power with subtle grace. Charisma, intellect and passion are the tools the Succubi use in their battle for the hearts and souls of mankind. To Lilith's favourite children, the war is fought in degrees. Small victories and minor shifts in the balance of power all go to make up for the major coups of the other forces and the Succubi have become expert in these methods. From the Harem conspiracies of old to the Kiss-and-tell stories of the modern world, Sex is a weapon with a broad field of use in the right hands.

Appearance:
Your wildest, wettest, dirtiest dream. Seriously, a Succubus stock in trade demands that he or she can play at being your fantasy. While it has always been easiest for Succubi to look like cheap trash, that does not mean that they can't also play preppy, debutant or prissy and virginal. Many Succubi specialise in a certain image and thus avoid competing with others of their kin. Look on the internet for the amount of fetishes and forms of sexual attraction and you'll see how many physical stimuli a Succubus has to draw upon for her mortal form.

Roleplaying Hints
Look for the angle in everything. Use every tool, every advantage and every trick in the book and never overlook a resource. Use discussions on Sartre and Nietzsche, shiatsu massage and chess, keep abreast of Hollywood gossip and the political climate, ensure that time in your company is always well spent. Do all this, but while you are making deals and influencing congress, never forget that your greatest and most potent tool is your fertility. You will never become barren or sterile and you will never fail to come to term. Every child that you create will have gifts bestowed by the powers of the Hidden world and by the world of its second parent. It will grow into a child of Lilith with the ability to walk in two worlds and will add to our army.

Stat change
Appearance, manipulation and Charisma are the tools of the Succubi and for this reason they are not restricted to five dots in these Attributes. The Succubi are creatures of desire and their Social Attributes are not capped at five like other Hidden, but can, with time rise all the way to ten. With Storytellers permission, this raised limit might also be applied to Abbilities such as Carousing, Seduction, Empathy and anything else tied to the arts of attraction.
Allure. All Succubus have an additional 2 points to spend in their Social traits.

Character creation

Grimoire
Pluck the Heart strings (provocation)
The Jokashar bridge the gap between mortal and spirit, their patriarch is King of the Daemons and their matriarch is the first human woman. This definition grants them a greater understanding of the Human condition and makes them skilled Tempters. They can provoke Mortals to a mental state synonymous with the characters own primary sin.
System: The character rolls her Humanity and id resisted by the Victim who must roll her willpower. If the Character succeeds she causes the target or feel the effects of the Jokashar's primary sin. Those provoked by the Ahazu begin to feel aggressive and angry, while the Chaikydri cause Pride and arrogance to swell and the Succubi cause feelings of desire and lust. These feelings are not all consuming and have no defined target, they are simply general feelings, but a clever Jokashar will learn to make use of these emotions. Those consumed by Pride tend to make mistakes, believing they are unbeatable they are less careful in their tactics. The wrathful attack without planning and the Lustful often suffer a drop in intellect as the blood travels south. If the target wins the contest she is immune to the characters provocation for the remainder of the scene. If her roll botches, the target gains a temporary derangement

and one of the following

Fertile The Succubi and Incubbi are Lilith's greatest servents, filling the Mortal Realm with little Half breeds that she can love and manipulate to satisfy her own Dark instincts.

or

Pheremone powers The less subtle of the Succubi simply rely on physical animal lust to get what they need.

or

Empathic response is used by the less direct Succubi, those who might want other things from thier victims besides sex.

STEREOTYPES
Ahazu "Whip me, beat me, spank me on the bottom with the Womans weekly ..."
The Ahazu are respected by most Jokashar as the greatest among them and the Succubi certainly see no reason to disagree. Siezer demons are powerful and make a strong addition to any gene pool, so the Succubi are apreciative of thier input.
Alu For obvious reasons the Succubi are the greatest supporters of the Alu and they cherish even those half demons for which they are not responsible.
Aym The fact that both the Aym and the succubi are common in Pandaemonium and on the earth has forged a strong alliance between the two races. In general each genius will go out of its way to aid and support the other.
Chaikydri "They're big, they're scary, they're balls are really hairy ..."
Like the Ahazu, the Chaikydri make strong partners for the succubi to breed with and they whores hold the Prideful in a great deal of awe and respect.
Daevin The hareems and pleasure palaces of the vestibule are thronged with Succubi and the Children of lust find life among the daevin extremely comfortable.
Elohim "Elohim are simple to understand. lots of pent up frustration leads to a quickie behind the font and wham bam thank you maam, bobs your uncle and the Elohim falls and joins the bastard Fallen. same problem, different gang colours."
Fallen The Succubi and the fallen have very little common ground. Even the low moral fortitude of Succubus wavers when faced with thier most despised opponant. Succubi who sleep with or make pacys with the fallen are not welcomed back into the bosom of thier familes very often.
Futile "Any old port in a storm"
The succubi are anything if not an equal oportunities good time and though the Futile lack the power and awe of many major Demons, they are plentiful and varied.
Grafficane "Awe what a cute puppy, just don't put your fingers anywhere near its mouth."
The Succubi view the Grafficane with a mixture of Pity and delight, keeping well away from thier marauding swarms but only too happy to bed down with them once the hunger has passed.
Khism "Its easy to look down upon the Khism, if you'll forgive the pun, but they have untapped potential. They are, after all, Jokashar and they did make exemplary rulers and Nobles when they had Domains. Thier Offspring can be tempered to be both Noble and heroic weilders of power."
The Khism might not admit to daliences with the Succubi but the Succubi themselves have neither shame nor tact and they will deal with the often desperate Khism for thier own ends with glee.
Nephilim "The Nephilim don't play nice with the Alu and that is enough reason not to like them."
Nigromant "The Spawn are icky, nasty, filthy and slimey creatures and they certainly ain't working dowards any form of paradise on earth. They are so evil that I would even ally my drop dead gorgeous self with the fallen to be rid of thier creepy menace."
