I agree with your most of your assessment: if the Charm Kissed victim couldn't move away from the Succubus, then the power basically becomes an old school Hold Person which lasts the entire encounter.Mustrum_Ridcully said:With that said, I wouldn't be to surprised if the Charm doesn't forbid her charmed victim to move away from her. My reasons
1) He still has to move away from her. This might or might not provoke opportunity attacks from he Succubus allies.
2) He can't attack her at all, which limits his tactical options.
3) He can't move close to her, unless he wants to risk his own life and waste his comrades attack.
4) If he would always stay besides her, the Succubus could basically become unbeatable, unless someone can stop being charmed by her. Otherwise, every single hit against her will hit her charmed victim, until it's dead. Then, she can kiss another party member, and rinse, repeat, until all party members are dead, except the last one, who is now here trusted ally.
However, point 4 wouldn't be entirely true - it doesn't make her unbeatable. Judicious use of slide/push/pull abilities on her or her bodyguard can be used to separate them, or just attacking with powers (especially spells) which are not specifically ranged or melee attacks. Or, hey... keep fireballin' 'em both and just make sure to keep healing your buddy
