Author’s Foreword

Salutations, Maldrog Haalzeh, once again my mortal readers, I’ve returned to this text to
amend it after a fierce scolding from my Brachina Spouse, Brayza after she discovered I
done this without her oversight. Provided with new lore and information, I will correct my
erroneous mistakes for fear of another verbal lashing, especially when one utilizes magic to
enhance the volume of their voice. My ears are still ringing, regardless I shall press on.*

DM’s Info
Greetings Players and Dungeon Masters! Its been months since I originally released this
homebrew supplement that has been downloaded over thousand times and receive such
a fanbase. Now, thanks to your support and feedback from my playtest groups, I’ve
decided to update to this to show my support to you by updating it to balance out
features that were largely more attuned to the monstrous NPC versions of these PC
options. I’ve created an entire series of supplements designed to support you the player,
and fuel a DM’s arsenal with the ability create interesting NPCs outside of the mold of the
Monster Manual.

I’m also here to address an aspect of Succubi & Incubi as a Player Race option, where I’ve
noticed some players in my testing groups where some DMs unaware of mythology
simply refer to them as the “R*** Demons” when this simply a major misnomer.
Numerous cultures possess their own variation of the Succubus & Incubus that all
behave in different manners, with Japanese culture possessing the Yuki-onna and in
certain tales the Kitsune, Gaelic culture the Leannan Sidhe, and countless other variations
found throughout historical myths and legends. In Hindu culture, The Yakshini, the
Indian version of the creature, are associated with wealth, fortune, and nature. To the
DMs whose first thought that comes to mind is “R*** Demon” when Succubi and or
Incubi, there is numerous other magical creatures that would commit the same atrocity
in heartbeat or worse.

Succubi & Incubi Player Characters have great potential to be master infiltrators,
assassins, and even mages, where their own children may become great wizards or
sorcerers. In some tellings of Merlin’s Myth, he is known as cambion that was spawned
from his mortal parent mating with an Succubi/Incubi, often used as the source of his
arcane power. Now, will you let the Demon redeem themselves or will you condemn
them to damnation for all eternity? Have fun!
