-I honestly think that the succubus is a very simplistic monster...I mean, the primary trait is //sex//, followed by //dreams//...the latter people seem to forget about for some reason. Considering this simplicity...I'm starting to wonder whether the succubus would have died out. Obviously, the idea of a sexy seductive monster would have stayed...but maybe not necessarily as a distinct entity. Vampires, especially the <abbr>WoD [World of Darkness]</abbr>/<abbr>CoD [Chronicles of Darkness]</abbr>-adjacent ones, already have many succubus traits attached to them. I mean, look at the Toreador from Masquerade or the Daeva from Requiem and tell me they aren't just succubi.\\  I would also point at existing monsters - like vampires - to show that they come in a lot of different shapes and sizes. Werewolves aren't all necessarily the humanoid wolf thing...some of them are just wolves.\\  Of course, this does raise the question of ‘if they're too simplistic, why did they survive?’...and, well, that is simple. Their central, unchanging trait is sex. So they survived because they're hot and everyone wants to bang them even if that means //death//.+I honestly think that the succubus is a very simplistic monster...I mean, the primary trait is //sex//, followed by //dreams//...the latter people seem to forget about for some reason.
