After all, they are fallen Celestials - and as such, they are probably still prone to goodness as much as evilness from birth.I agree though - while the metamorphosis of evil retainers does not exactly allow for this, it makes a good story and has already been done in any case. Besides, who's to say what a newly formed succubus should look like? Maybe they do indeed go through natural life cycles.I think the monster progression in Savage Species could be of help. First of all, it gives a way to depict "not fully matured" succubi. Secondly, it clearly divides the abilities so that you can handpick things easier.My personal opinion on the matter is that all abilities should be allowed, save for Summon Tanar'ri. They don't have any innately evil abilities unless one counts their energy drain ability but even that's simply explainable as a part of their being. I would definitely not say that it is created by their upbringing myself. It feels like a natural capability which need not be used (unless you actually rule that they gain nutrition from feasting on energy, a possible and interesting choice).I'm just reminded of Fall-from-Grace. Who was an interesting character, in my opinion.</blockquote>
