Homebrew Alp Species Details

Alps are incubi that, deep within their heart, strongly desired to become a woman or be with a man, and used the dark energies of the weave taken in upon becoming an incubus, which is normally used to boost their essence generation facility, to instead destroy it. As a result, they're unable to produce essence and they lose all of their essence. Since they are left with only dark energy stored in their body, they change into a monster. Even after becoming alps, their heart, values, memory, and personality, everything other than their bodies, is still the same from when they were men. Alps are quite the happy and carefree race. Despite being extremely feminine, the entire race of Alps are all Males. They can even bear young and support families.
