Succubi [F]
Lascivious female spirits or demons, probably descendants or relations of Lilith, Queen of the Night. They are ardent for masculine embraces but their equivalent male demons, the incubi, are interested only in mortal women. Succubi are too hideous to appeal to human males, but they find a way around this problem by seducing men into lustful intercourse during their sleep. The succubi, however, being incapable of true love, have to seduce men in strange phantasmal forms and lure them into all manner of nocturnal perversions, from which the sleeper awakes exhausted, dissatisfied, and ashamed. Probably the name of the succubi derives from the Latin word sugo meaning 'I suck', because they suck the strength from human males during the hours of darkness.

Succubi take a particular delight in tormenting holy men under vows of chastity, who belive that fleshly contact with women will deplete their spiritual powers. The female fiends visit such ascetics while they are asleep, drag them into phantasmal orgies, and seduce them into the very ecstasies they have sworn not to enjoy.

Supay

Sytry
