They aren't immune, just subconsciously immune to it if they don't want it. As an example, if the crew were traveling with a Dormouse and an Alice, they wouldn't be affected by the lure to rape either. But if Xavier really fell for the Alice they meet in their travels, he'd eventually succumb to her influence while still resisting the dormouse.

Now that I wrote it out though, perhaps it would be better to day they have an unnatural tolerance rather than full immunity.

There's actually a huge reason for why they are so tolerant though, but it ties into their story arch and I'd rather not spoil it. As for Sword Skills, the Magic Weapon handles all the Demonic Energy. To use a Sword Skill the wielder donates a bit of Spirit Energy in exchange for its use, sort of like an inborn contrast system all MW'S possess.

The Weapons themselves consume both energy types to gain power, and are even capable of halting monsterization in early cases (once the subject has become an incubus or lesser succubus they're unsavable).

As for the mind control, it's more like weaker mind control stuff like basic seers and and mindeflayers. I kinda ended up writing that in the perspective of "their journey so far", so they haven't really ran into anyone on Amarta or the Red Mindflayer's level. It's still possible if I the subject trying for it is strong enough to do so.
