02-26-07, 12:36 AM +32 Overall Ability Adjustment alone would probably be an LA+2.

Free Sneak Attack Damage, 4 HD, all the other abilities. I would expect this to get up around and ECL to get up to at least 8, most likely more.

02-26-07, 12:54 AM Couldn't you just have an incubus be a male succubus, just change the gender and have the stats the same?

The Incubus stats are in this month's Dragon. The only problem is, despite having the "Advances as Character", they didn't give a stat block on Incubus as Character section. Makes me think that it was one of three things.

1) Edited out for space.

2) Editor/creator oversight.

3) Is going to be in the Upcoming Monster Manual and was intentionally left out.

That's the way I do it. Even back in 1e AD&D, an incubus was simply a shapechanged succubus.

02-26-07, 03:37 PM Mmmmmm........ I see Incubus are different for a Succubus...:embarrass
I never see a incubus using energy drain with a women. Is dangerous for the baby half-fiend.
Instead I always see succubus energy drain in both... girls and boys.
I think that Incubus need more STR and less CHA WIS and INT.
and they don't need use the Energy Drain attack. They need have the girl with life for have a half-fiend. While Succubus don't need the boys with life for have half-fiend (alu-demon).

In D&D they says that incubus are the same that a succubus.
But personally I think that they are different in many things.

I love succubus!!! (and yes I am girl) instead I don't like much the idea of a incubus. They rape girls.

I took it a step further. In my games, succubi are the daughters of night hags and demons, just as erinyes are the daughters of night hags and devils.

Funny thing is the largest ability bonus the Incubus gets is to Charisma followed by Strength.

That's certainly another way of doing it.

In the recent Dragon article, it says that succubi can take male form, but that this is not the same thing as a true incubus. The major difference between them, according to the article, is that succubi (including "male" succubi) are seducers while true incubi are rapists. This holds well with the mythology from which succubi and incubi come from, though the aspersions it casts on male sexuality are certainly not pleasant.
