Stripped-down Succubus?

[Reige]

I am working creating a succubus monster class for a player of mine. One without all of the "evil" powers. In one reply, on another forum, someone pointed me to these boards. They mentioned that someone did work on a "Naked" Succubus, as well as some other "Naked" Monsters, with reduced powers and abilities. If someone could lead me to these, I will greatly appreciate it. (I do not have access to search functions).

Thanks again,

Well, if you had access to Savage Species you could use that either as inspiration or itself, as that's the purpose of Savage Species.

However if you don't have access to that book, then I would first pick apart each of the powers a succubus has, including the abilities for being a demon. Make a list and then determine which are appropriate for 1st level, 2nd level, etc, until you have something you are happy with.

Another option, cheap and less time consuming is for the first few levels give the character the "Fiendish template" from the Monster Manual. When it's to a point where the powers have increased or it's "matured" then switch over to the Half-fiendish template. Just rename the template to fit your need and maybe substitute one ability for the Charm person and level drain.

I do believe someone has a webpage with their own version of the succubus for those who'd like to play it, but I don't have the link.

Or make a half-succubus template.

Let's see:

fly 40 ft
+4 natural armour
claw damage as per half-fiend but no bite
+8 Cha
kiss = enervation spell 1/day
spell-like abilities by character level or hit dice (whichever you think appropriate):
1st: detect good 3/day
3rd: alter self 3/day, detect thoughts 3/day
5th: suggestion 3/day, tongues 3/day
7th: charm monster 3/day
9th: ethereal jaunt 3/day
11th: greater teleport 3/day
damage reduction: 5/cold iron or good
resistances: electricity 10, fire 5, cold 5, acid 5
immunities: poison
+4 racial bonus to listen and spot
sr = hd +10

If a half-fiend has a +4 LA, this is probably only a +3 LA. If you split it into 3 levels a la Savage Species, you might have something like:

ECL1: 1 HD (outsider d*), +8 Cha, detect good 3/day, one feat, skill points ((8 + Int bonus)*4) with skills being: bluff, concentration, diplomacy, disguise, escape artist, hide, intimidate, knowledge, listen, move silently, search, spot, survival, use rope
ECL2: +4 natural armour, fly 40 ft
ECL 3: claws, enervating kiss 1/day, alter self 3/day and detect thoughts 3/day
ECL 4: (character class) 1st level (now 2 HD)
