Succubus's Profane Gift


Rules Questions

Profane Gift (Su)

Once per day as a full-round action, a succubus may grant a profane gift to a willing humanoid creature by touching it for 1 full round. The target gains a +2 profane bonus to an ability score of his choice. A single creature may have no more than one profane gift from a succubus at a time. As long as the profane gift persists, the succubus can communicate telepathically with the target across any distance (and may use her suggestion spell-like ability through it). A profane gift is removed by dispel evil or dispel chaos. The succubus can remove it as well as a free action (causing 2d6 Charisma drain to the victim, no save).

My question: the humanoid must be willing to obtain the bonus from the succubus.. but the succubus can lie about her "help" to the hero, or a "willing humanoid" means that the humanoid must be aware of the profane nature of the gift?

You don't have to completely understand what you're getting into in order to be willing. AKA: The succubus can ABSOLUTELY trick NPCs or even PCs into accepting the profane gift. In fact... I suspect that's how most of those gifts get handed out anyway.


Great, Shamira's going to entice a purehearted paladin, eheh.

Thanks, Mighty Tyrannosaurus.
