How would you build a Succubus?


Advice


So I'm playing a Succubus right now, just got to lv 5 in this monster progression class from Dreamscarred Press. My original idea was to build her toward Battle Templar in the Path of War book, by taking the divine spellcasting option, and dipping into two levels of Warlord... however taking a closer look at Battle Templar I see it's not really the divine opposite of Battlecaster like I had originally hoped. So I thought maybe I'd take only 1 level of Warlord and only 7 levels of Battle Templar, then finish in Nightblade for Evasion and continued if not better spellcasting..

However another option is possible, Succubus 8, Adept Godling 12.

honestly don't know where to go with this character.

Come on, you're playing a Succubus and you're not a Tetori monk abusing the grappling rules?


Occult Adventures playtest Medium, probably. Get The Liar for your spirit, mix it up now and then with The Rakshasa and The Fiend.

Too bad Succubus abilities are Charisma-based, and several Monk features are Wisdom-based, otherwise it would totally work.

Sadly, an Iroran Paladin would probably be the better choice, getting Charisma to AC, Saves, and a bunch of similar scaling abilities. On top of that, you can still wear a tight leather dominatrix outfit, have a much looser code of conduct, and otherwise specialize in grappling.


Is it wrong that I read the thread title and "Weird Science" came to mind?

The Scaled fist archtype for monk and unchained monk changes everything to charisma

When one grapples succubi, go right for the pin

No, do not linger in the clinch, it's not a fight you'll win
Don't kiss the supple demoness, as from you your strength drains
And grinning, she will sup her fill, and discard what remains

So, when you grapple succubi, try coming from behind
And, quickly, now, control the head, of beauty most unkind
And keep those luscious lips well clear, of all your flesh, my son
They're simply just too perilous, for all they seem like fun

I felt this was to appropriate not to repost (Concider it my vote for anything grapply.... Preferably something monky too)

It's in the recently released Legacy of Dragons, which means it might not be up yet on the various SRDs. ^_^
