Succubi

Born from the bond created from of a heartbroken goddess, these strange humanoids were given life in the hopes of bringing her some form of love where there used to be. Judging by their legacy, it would seem that they did their job quite well.

Beauty of the night

Growing to a height of six feet, succubi have a sort of beauty surpassing that of most elves. Unlike elves, succubi tend to weigh a bit more - usually around 125 to 155 lbs on average. But the only real thing to make up those additional pounds would be their heart-tipped tails and wings, which vary between the various subraces.

Their skin tends to span much the same tones as humans with long hair of some metallic hue. Magenta was popular hair color choice for a time, but other colors have since joined the options in the form of violet and midnight blue among others. That does not make them demons though. Far from it.

Timeless Love:

With a lifespan averaging around 750 years, succubi have a tendency to seem almost distant, out of touch to those that are not their significant others. But when the situation calls for it, they will usually buck up and act as the ‘adult’ of a group.

Though that doesn't mean that they don't have fun. They just prefer to keep up an appearance of having some control in what usually feels like a whirlwind of events going around them.

Love in the wind:

Succubi are a strange case when it comes to enviroments. While they have their own towns, there are only a handful of actual succubi in them. The requirements are quite strict, with few succubi even bothering to come back.

Instead, most of sucikind scatter in the winds and settle down in a village or even cities. There they usually settle down and make a modest life. Unless they become adventurers, of course.

Thrill of Love:

Most succubi become adventurers either for romance and/or possible fortune. The most common reasons being in the hopes of finding a 'person' of their own to love, others to raise enough gold in order to start a family. As a result, most succubi have either a woman or a man who they hold dearly, or a 'beloved' of sorts. They are usually marked with a half heart symbol, with the other half found on the succubi herself.

While not married through official means, they are considered 'married' by succubi standards and allowed back to their villages. If they wish to go back.

Succubi Names:

Succubi tend to have names usually reserved for objects. Whether or not this was the result of their creator wanting some sort of superiority over her newfound creation is unknown. Whatever the case, colors, flowers and gemstones are some of the more popular choices, with the succubus usually getting named around their third birthday. Surnames are either passed down from either their parents or the succubi takes one that corresponds to their current situation.
