Homebrew Concubus (Incubus/Succubus) Species Details
Concubi are the iconic depiction of lust. Feared for their typically evil nature and ability to steal one's soul, succubi are fiends who wield subtle illusions and enchantments to tempt their victims into forfeiting their eternal souls. Concubi inhabit all of the Lower Planes, and the lascivious fiends can be found in service to devils, demons, night hags, rakshasas, and yugoloths. Asmodeus, ruler of the Nine Hells, uses these fiends to tempt mortals to perform evil acts. The demon lord Graz'zt keeps succubi and incubi as advisers and consorts.
Concubi often live up to their reputation, acting as seductive females or males to lure males and/or females into relinquishing some of their life-force. Particularly adept at controlling others in the peak of their strength, they're often employed - albeit reluctantly - by others to act as crowd control, or to tame certain creatures. Most of them share the nature of their reputation; flirtatious. They avoid fighting where possible, instead choosing seduction or fleeing.
Concubi, in their true forms, have an appearance similar to that of humans, but are horned, clawed, tailed, and comely. They are typically slender, well-toned, and are very rarely overly muscular. Due to their shapechanging abilities, they can tweak their appearances and sex, or even change them completely to suit their needs.
