Message: <blockquote data-quote="AF Stripes" data-source="post: 6104094" data-attributes="member: 6672181">Succubi can invade dreams of mortals and (truthfully) any creature that has the ability to dream. This is a given with succubi lore...yet, when I look at the description of it there is no real ability to explain it. Research into the topic shows even the pathfinder succubi haven't been been upgraded appropriately.  However another monster called the night hag HAS the ability to enter dreams. Dream Haunting (Su): Night hags can visit the dreams of chaotic or evil individuals by using a special periapt known as a heartstone to become ethereal, then hovering over the creature. Once a hag invades someone’s dreams, it rides on the victim’s back until dawn. The sleeper suffers from tormenting dreams and takes 1 point of Constitution drain upon awakening. Only another ethereal being can stop these nocturnal intrusions, by confronting and defeating the night hag.Am I crazy or is this the EXACT nature of the succubus? They can do this naturally without a heartstone. Would I be wrong in slapping this ability (reworded appropriately) onto the succubus npc?? Shouldn't that already be there? WTF.Follow up question: Secrets of Sarlona has dreamtoched feats. I don't have the book atm so I don't know the prerequisites for them. Will those only work for psionic characters? I was planning on making this succubus villain a psion anyway.  Would those make her more effective in dream infiltration? Are there any other spells or powers out there that specifically deal with dreams, invading dreams, or fighting in dreams? I really need to make a succubi more effective at doing the things it does best. I can DL materials off the net easily and some help here would be appreciated.</blockquote>
