"All succubi are alike.

No, even better, all succubus are the same - evil and shrewd.

They will only seduce you to devour your soul." "Nothing good comes out of knowing a tiefling or a succubus.

Smart advice, but then again, forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest.

And I, Kallisto Fyrellyss, knew this very well.

Born and raised in Maniaaté, one of the cities built by my race, I've seen poor souls get tortured and killed for fun and heard about billion more stories during social events and family gatherings.

Family gatherings are something I've never loved, oh heck, I don't even like them, I despise them.

And yet, I've never managed to miss a single one.

Yup, my family is special.

Not in a good way.

Despite some flaws, they are charming.

And good looking.

That's why it so easy for them to feed on souls of suckers who don't see their true colors.

My ancestors date back to the creation of the first Succubus and Incubus.

Two races that were created by the sin of lust, to be the ultimate servants of its sin, millennia ago.

For as long as we have existed, we were seen as the very definition of lust; we wanted the souls of humanoids, to feed by mating with other humanoids.

Other races have burned their members suspected to be us - almost always it was a false accusation, merely a way for evil people to kill attractive rivals - and many orders have sought out to destroy us, but it is unlikely that they will succeed.

We will continue to exist until all of the lust or all of the fiends are destroyed, and neither is likely to happen.

That's why we know we are safe to do as we wish and please.

Knowing that Fyrellyss is one of the oldest families in the history of Succubus', we are considered high nobility.

Hell, we are respected almost as gods.

Everyone desires to be our friend, lover, husband, wife...

To be everything but an enemy.

And for a good reason: my family's blood runs through veins of 86,63% of all the strongest, most evil creatures that have ever walked, flew, crawl or swam in any plane of existence.

And 100% of us were, are and will be evil.

There's no exception.

Well, except for me.

I have always preferred to use my powers for myself.

I wanted to excel. And I did.

Fyrellyss' bloodline created a powerful sorcerer.

My family was thrilled.

It was decades since we had one in our family.

Some said that cosmic forces were afraid of what we could do with that kind of knowledge, and one can’t study sorcery as one learns a language, any more than one can learn to live a legendary life.

No one chooses sorcery; the power chooses the sorcerer.

I was given immense power, and I loved the tingling in my body when I used it.

Oh, how I loved magic; I spent nights and days practicing, improving, upgrading.

And it was never enough.

Magic was my addiction, I couldn't imagine myself without it.

However, I never used it to harm someone.

Never had the need or wish to do so.

It was unusual, but everyone thought I was waiting for a perfect moment, my initialization, to shine and show my true colors, the darkest colors succubuses have seen in centuries.

When succubus reaches the age of maturity (18) it is custom to be presented to extended family and friends.

A celebrator enters an "arena", a place where a victim is waiting, and the spectators are placed in an auditorium.

A victim uses all skills and tactics to elude an inevitable destiny.

Yeah, I know, it seems like we're going to torture him/her in I don't know what way and that he/she will fell an immense pain, a pain you could never describe to someone.

However, funny thing.

That's not what we do.

Every succubus is known for its natural charisma.

Powerful weapon.

Also, we are created by the sin of lust and more focused on seduction compared to combat capabilities.

We are able to charm our ways into being husbands or wives of powerful rulers, only to kill them to steal their throne.

That said, you probably concluded that our maturity rituals mean seducing, charming and afterward taking advantage of a creature presented to us.

The creature usually enjoys what is done to him.

Once succubus proves how charming (s)he can be, (s)he shows off his/her true powers - magic, fighting, manipulating... Whatever...

Sometimes poor creature dies and sometimes it's used for some "greater purpose".

On my maturity celebration, I got a powerful celestial warlock.

A worthy challenge.

A plan was to use him to infiltrate a coven? of a solar angel Viryn, a powerful patron whose protégées are devoted to saving souls from evil forces, they even thought them how to resist charming spells.

We didn't like that.

Nor did tieflings.

So, the plan was created.

To destroy an enemy from the inside.

I was believed to be strong enough to break the righteous walls of celestials.

Therefore, I was one of the most important
