On a situation like this, I tend to go with toeing the line KC set very tightly. Until such time as KC directly states men can turn into female monsters of other sorts, I'll stick to the assumption that Alp is it.

To explain from a mythological standpoint, Alps are (traditionally speaking) male. They're the male equivalent to a creature known as the mara, and are essentially demons/incubi/what-have-you who cause bad dreams and, among other afflictions, what we would today call sleep paralysis(which is really not pleasant to experience, by the by).

I'm of the belief that their mythological origins are what prompted him to choose them as a form of succubus for males to take on.
