* Change all x-per-days to a charge mechanic - see the Satyr for how this works. (Already done for Freesoul)
+
* Disconnect the fluff from the rules for ease of reading?
-
* Telepathy to be on a progression for Corruptor (Already is for Freesoul)
+
-
* Spell Resistance to be on a progression for Corruptor (Already is for Freesoul)
+
-
* Damage Reduction to be on a progression for Corruptor (Already is for Freesoul)

-
* Disconnect the fluff from the rules for ease of reading.
+
-
* Adjust Corruptor heavily to be more distinct from Savage Species

-
* Related content: Make Investing versions of some Racial feats that would be relevant to the Succubus (Flyby Attack for example)?
+
-
* Possibly add a few Racial feat options?

** ''Trade Of Materialism:'' Optionally, Succubi can gain the special {Material} trait. This makes them count as native to the Material Plane for the purposes of spells such as Banishment - however, they remain Outsiders for the purposes of spells not related to removing them from this dimension. A Succubus with this trait who is slain can choose to regenerate by getting returned to the Abyssal planes at any time, but isn't forced to (unlike usual).  Succubi who make this trade also have their innards change to resemble a humanoid's, rather than a black pit of strange fluid. This does not affect their abilities... Usually. The cost of this trade is the disconnection of the Succubus from their abyssal power sources - forcing them to relearn almost all of their abilities to use the native magics of the Material Plane instead.

*** In other words, those who make this trade lose all Succubus progression levels. Any PC Succubus with this option will have spent at least a little time on the material learning the basics of a class and/or the adaptation of their own tricks, so as to attain 1st level. Any Succubus who does not have this trait must be fully leveled in the Corruptor progression, as this represents their default state.

** ''Demonic Sponsor:'' Optionally, Succubi can have a Demonic Sponsor - a higher-power demon who they have made a pact with. A Demonic Sponsor can issue orders to them, which they ''must'' follow, but is obligated to provide the Succubus with an abyssal home and possible other benefits. (Traditionally, any Demon who is sponsoring others is going to maintain a castle, fortress, military base, or similar facility, with at least one private room to each sponsored demon. Often, if they primarily interact with one Material plane, they will choose a base style highly anachronistic to that plane.) Freesouls do not sponsor, nor are they sponsored by, non-Freesoul for cultural reasons.

* '''Hunger Immunity''': A Succubus never needs to eat nor drink, and thus never suffer the effects of starvation or dehydration. However, many, especially Apacubi, can and do eat and drink for the taste, gain the benefits of consumed items with special effects as normal.

* '''Poison Immunity''': Succubi are acclimated to an environment where the very air is often suffused with every poison imaginable. They are automatically immune to the negative effects of all poisons or drugs. Succubi can partially disable this if they want to enjoy the effects of drunkenness (for example), but are not counted as having any statistical penalties from them - which often has rather odd results. Some Paladins are known to joke that the best possible way to tell if someone is a Succubus is to buy them an entire horn of Dwarven Ale. If they're cohherent enough to hit on people after it, then check how bright the Detect Evil is glowing, but they're probably an Apacubus.

* '''Aging Immunity''': Succubi are spawned from the abyssal pits as something loosely equivalent to teenagers, with plenty of knowledge and the like pre-provided. They do not have a maximum age, and do not suffer the negative effects to physical stats of aging, but do gain the bonuses to mental stats as normal. They are considered Middle-Aged at 300 years, Old at 600 years, and Venerable at 1000 years.

*** Horns - Horns of one or another shape - common ones being the spiral horns of goats or bull-like curves, though odder shapes are known to exist. They are usable as a Gore natural weapon, dealing 1d6 damage; however, Succubi do ''not'' have proficiency with them.
*** Wings - Either black feathered or leathery, bat-like wings. They have a fly speed of 50 feet, with average control. This means that they can fly as well as a small bird, unless carrying more than a light load. They can also make dive attacks (mechanically matched to charges, with the minimum horizontal distance being 30 feet and minimum descent being 10 feet). Attacks from charges deal double damage. The run action can be used to fly in a straight line at a longer distance.

** A Succubus' half-suppressed form looks more human-like. They usually wear full clothing, and most optional features look just like her human form. However, her nails are exceptionally hard, allowing her to maintain her claw weapons, her wings remain visible (but can be of a single alternate color of her choice), and she may still have her horns. (Apacubi who are open about their nature often wear hats over the horns.)

A Corruptor is a Succubus who has developed her talents for darkness, seeking to pervert or destroy good things in the world. In short: The ones to be afraid of, the ones for whom their every talent is pointed at screwing you over horrifically, one way or another.

(((''Presently, Corruptors are very close to standard SRD Succubi, and level almost identically to Savage Species Succubi. Modifications will be highly desirable to account for d20r changes like Prowess.'')))
 
-
 
-
'''Prerequisites'''
 
-
 
-
:''Race'': Succubus
 
-
:''Alignment'': Chaotic Evil. Corruptors are incapable of truly abandoning their nature as a corruptor, particularly if they have leveled this way. (((Penalties for those who lose alignment via things like the ''Helm of Opposite Alignment'' need to be added.)))
 
-
:''Class'': A Corruptor Succubus can ''never'' take levels in any other Succubus-specific racial progression. If they wish to switch to a new type ''for any reason'', they must make a new Trade of Materialism to lose all Corruptor levels. (A generous DM can let them keep their Experience, and spend some significant period of offscreen time to redevelop their powers in their new progression.)
 
-
 
-
The Corruptor type comes in two variants; while all the same powers are available to both, the NPC variant reaches full level significantly faster, since its abilities matter less to NPCs than PCs. It is ''not recommended'' that PCs be allowed access to the NPC version of the class.

'''Feats:''' A Corruptor Succubus, INSTEAD OF getting feats at the regular rate, gets a feat at specified levels only - after completing the progression, it gains feats according to its character level. When the class is used in Gestalt, this is ignored.
+
'''Natural Magic (Sp)''': A Corruptor Succubus has a significant pool of magical charge they may tap into daily - one charge per level in the Corruptor progression. These charges may be used to cast certain spell-like abilities (dependent on level) or power feats with the [Succubus] descriptor.
-
* Note that the NPC Corruptor Succubus specifies the feats earned - Dodge, Mobility, Persuasive. PC Corruptors get feats of their choice at 1st, 4th, and 10th levels.
+
-
'''Telepathy:''' At 1st level (NPC) or 2nd level (PC), a Corruptor gains telepathy, allowing it to communicate with any language-speaking creature in 100 feet.
+
With the DM's permission, additional spells that are suited to a theme of desire manipulation can be added to the list of Freesoul Powers. (Particularly good sources include any sex-related sourcebook, as well as spells with the [Evil] or [Chaotic] descriptors.)
-
'''Spell Resistance (Ex):''' A Corruptor of 5th level (NPC) or 9th level (PC) has spell resistance equal to 6 + HD from class levels.
+
'''Telepathy:''' 2nd level, a Corruptor gains telepathy, allowing it to communicate with any language-speaking creature within 10' per level.
 +
 
 +
'''Spell Resistance (Ex):''' A Corruptor gains 1 Spell Resistance for each hit die (whether or not it's from a class level).
 +
 
 +
'''Damage Reduction (Ex): A Succubus' beauty does not tarnish easily - especially not by the hands of weapons. Strikes against them partially regenerate in a matter of seconds, effectively reducing the damage taken by an amount equal to their level in Freesoul Succubus. Note, however, that their Damage Reduction entirely fails against good-aligned attack sources.
 +
* At 1st level, the damage reduction can be beaten by a weapon of at least +1 enchantment, or a weapon made of Cold Iron.
 +
* At 5th level, half of the damage reduction can no longer be beaten by cold iron; all of it can be beaten by a weapon of +2 enchantment.
 +
* At 10th level, only weapons of +2 enchantment can beat the damage reduction at all, and then only half. Weapons of +3 enchantment can entirely beat it.
-
'''Damage Reduction (Ex): A Corruptor of 6th level (NPC) or 11th level (PC) begins to heal wounds extremely fast, gaining Damage Reduction 10/+2.
+
'''Natural Armor:''' A Succubus' skin is tougher than a normal human's. They have an inherent bonus to AC equal to their Corruptor Succubus level.
-
'''Shift Details (Su):''' A Corruptor of 2nd level (NPC) or 3rd level (PC) gains the ability to shift some details of all their forms. Specifically, their hair color and length, facial features (including color of lips and eyes), and breast size become available for them to change freely (within reason, pervs). This ability grants a +5 bonus to Disguise checks if used while creating a disguise. This applies to all three of their forms from Shift Shape

Specifically, their hair color and length, facial features (including color of lips and eyes), and breast size become available for them to change freely (within reason, pervs). This ability grants a +5 bonus to Disguise checks if used while creating a disguise. This applies to all three of their forms from Shift Shape
-
'''Change Shape (Su):''' A Corruptor of 3rd level (NPC) or 5th level (PC) can take the shape of any Small or Medium humanoid (including choosing exactly which aspects of her half-human or full-Succubus forms she wishes to keep). The +10 bonus to Disguise checks overrides and replaces the +5 bonus from ''Shift Details''. Other than this, all details are as the d20 SRD Change Shape ability.
+
'''Enhance Gloves:''' A Succubus of 4th level gains proficiency in a special "Weapon" category - Claw Enhancer Gloves. These normal-looking gloves cost 5 GP, or 300 GP for Masterwork quality, having carefully-placed, tiny slits that allow for nails to imperceptibly stick out. Claw Enhancer Gloves upgrade Claw damage as if by the Improved Natural Attack feat (that is, from 1d3 to 1d4). More signifcantly, they can accept both enchantments suited to gloves, as well as for weapons. Weapon enchantments placed on Claw Enhancer Gloves effect the user's Natural Attack. Further, the gloves can adjust to the user's shape upon shapeshifting while worn. The cost for Weapons enchantments is separated from the cost for Armor enchantments, as well as for things like Armor Class or Attack Bonus modifiers - that is, the Gloves have a separate armor enchantment bonus and weapon enchantment bonus for all points and purposes. The gloves enhance both claw attacks. Enchanted versions of the Gloves require the Create Magic Armor feat for armor enchants, and the Create Magic Weapon feat for weapons. The Succubus can explain the idea easily enough without requiring any of the component feats herself, and in environments where many Freesoul Succubi live (or Claw Enhancer Gloves would otherwise be a sensibly sellable item - some Druids might use them, for example), they may be available on the open market. The following enchantments (from the base rules) are appropriate for Claw Enhancer Gloves (along with any Enhanced or Greater forms thereof): Acid Resistance, Arrow Deflection (using the back of the arm), Cold Resistance, Electricity Resistance, Etherealness, Fire Resistance, Ghost Touch, Invulnerability, Reflecting (using the back of the arm), Silent Moves, Slick, Sonic Resistance, Spell Resistance, Undead Controlling, Wild. Any weapon enchantment that can apply to small melee weapons is appropriate for Claw Enhancer Gloves.  
-
'''Energy Drain (Su):''' A Corruptor of 4th level (NPC) or 7th level (PC) level can, once per day, drain energy from a mortal it lures into some act of passion, or by simply planting a kiss on the victim. If the target is not willing to be kissed, the succubus must start a grapple, which provokes an attack of opportunity. The succubus’s kiss or embrace bestows one negative level. At 6th level (NPC) or 11th level (PC), this ability can be used at will, and also has the effect of a suggestion spell, asking the victim to accept another kiss from the succubus. The DC to resist the suggestion and to remove the negative level is 10 + 1/2 the Succubus' HD from class levels + the Succubus' Charisma modifier.
+
'''Change Shape (Su):''' A Corruptor of 6th level can take the shape of any Small or Medium humanoid (including choosing exactly which aspects of her half-human or full-Succubus forms she wishes to keep). The +10 bonus to Disguise checks overrides and replaces the +5 bonus from ''Shift Details''. Other than this, all details are as the d20 SRD Change Shape ability.
-
'''Tongues (Su):''' A Corruptor of 1st level can speak with any creature that has a language. The Succubus' caster level for this effect is its Hit Dice from Corruptor class levels times two. This skill is always active, but can be disabled or reenabled as a free action.
+
'''Energy Drain (Su):''' A Corruptor of 5th level can, once per day, drain energy from a mortal it lures into some act of passion, or by simply planting a kiss on the victim. If the target is not willing to be kissed, the succubus must start a grapple, which provokes an attack of opportunity. The succubus’s kiss or embrace bestows one negative level. At 8th level, this ability can be used three times per day, and also has the effect of a suggestion spell, asking the victim to accept another kiss from the succubus. The DC to resist the suggestion and to remove the negative level is 10 + 1/2 the Succubus' HD from class levels + the Succubus' Charisma modifier. At 10th level, this becomes at-will.
-
'''Lesser Corruptor Powers (Sp):''' At 1st level (NPC) or 2nd level (PC), a Corruptor can use clairaudience/clarivoyance, darkness, desecrate, detect good, detect thoughts, doom, and suggestion, all once per day each. At 2nd level (NPC) or 4th level (PC), these upgrade to thrice daily, and at 3rd level (NPC) or 6th level (PC), they become usable at will. It's caster level is equal to its class level for all of these
+

If they wish to switch to a new type ''for any reason'', they must make a new Trade of Materialism to lose all Corruptor levels. (A generous DM can let them keep their Experience, and spend some significant period of offscreen time to redevelop their powers in their new progression.)

'''Partial Energy Drain (Su):'' A Freesoul Succubus doesn't develop their Energy Draining as much as a Corruptor, but occasionally, being able to temporarily weaken someone by making out with them is kind of handy. At 5th level, once per day, they can drain a level from a victim with a kiss or more significant act of passion, placing one negative level on them - however, the victim does not need to make a save to avoid the level loss becoming permanent. A victim who loses all levels from this does ''not'' die, but is unconscious for 24 hours. At 8th level, they can use this three times per day, and at 10th level, at will.
