BIO: Greater Incubus -- “While there is little hard evidence known yet to point out exactly what causes this unusual Incubisation to occur, or how it chooses which Incubi evolve or not, we can only speculate that it is an evolutionary trait of the Succubus/Incubus gene adapting in order to allow our species to survive due to the steady decline in human men over these past few centuries.” - Headmistress Victoria of the Grand Archive Library speaking to the Council of Demonic Affairs in the City of Avalon. The Greater Incubus is not so much a subspecies of the Incubus genus as it is an evolutionary trait brought on by the influence of demonic energy, much like the transformation of Lesser Succubus into a Succubus is. Unlike Greater Succubi, who in comparison are much more common, Greater Incubi are quite rare and typically can only be found in Demon Realms or where the density of Demonic Energy is at its thickest.

Many of the existing Greater Incubi, as if by some sort of instinctual nature or unconscious desire pushing them into it, gravitate towards positions of military or combat occupations which almost always inevitably thrust them into direct combat against the Church and the Order, and its array of holy knights. Many scholars believe this is a similar trait of the otherwise normally female monsters, who adore and fawn over acts of selfless bravery, courage, and heroics. Those more skeptical, or rather, those who understand the Succubus nature and diet, see the Greater Incubus’ acts of bravery in another light - one of quite oddly, self-preservation and survival.

As all Incubi of course, share the same kind of genus and characteristics of their female counterparts, the Succubus, Greater Incubi share a similar but opposite need for sex. Unlike Succubi, who feed off of the spirit energy of men to survive and bolster their magics, Greater Incubi become conduits, sources, producers of Spirit Energy, as if their very existence was brought forth for the sole purpose of feeding and sustaining the Succubus race. This of course, is the very problem the Greater Incubi suffer from - In the same ways that certain magics used in moderation can help heal or save one’s life, too much can of course contaminate and pollute the body and put that person’s life at risk. This is the same for Greater Incubi whose spirit energy they generate vastly exceeds that of normal human men, and even men who have become Incubi themselves. Because of this, they must expel the spirit energy on a regular basis, otherwise they will begin to suffer from symptoms of their stored up spirit energy, eventually leading to of course, their death.

Many speculate that this is partly why most Greater Incubi strive for positions in which they are thrust into combat, or acts of heroism in the Demon Realms. It is widely known that all monsters share a common love of heroism and bravery, and subsequently wish to marry and mate with those who carry out such acts because of it. Many scholars and researchers have concluded that this is in fact a sort of courtship by the Greater Incubi in order to find a mate in which they can share their spirit energies with. It is of course not uncommon either, that a Greater Incubus if given the choice will typically choose a more sexually active partner, such as a Succubus or Ushi-Oni, who are capable of taking in their massive quantities of spirit energy on a regular basis without harm.

However, their most distinctive feature is not their massive spirit energy generation or their ravenous sexual appetite. Rather, spotting a Greater Incubus in a crowd of Incubi is no harder than spotting a Succubus or Lilim in a crowd of human women, as Greater Incubi share another trait of the Succubus gene, their physical appearance. While of course retaining their male physique, Greater Incubi boast the same kinds of horns on their heads, as well as the iconic tail and wings Succubi are most known for. This makes them very easy to spot on both the streets of cities, as well as the fields of combat unless their appearance is masked through various magic charms and seals. It is typically for this reason that most Greater Incubi stay in demon realms, or if they venture into the human territories, typically stay only within regions that are openly friendly towards monster-kind, as they are as easy to spot out as any monster girl.

The last major trait that separates a Greater Incubus from a normal one, is their combat abilities in both physical strength and use of magic. Not quite measuring up to a full-fledged Baphomet in raw physical power, a Greater Incubus shares similar strength to some of the strongest monsters in the known world, as well as having the ability to use similarly powerful magic to that of the Succubi. As a word of caution to any Greater Incubus, while they may have the ability to put as much power and energy behind a magic spell or attack as powerful Succubi can, extensive study in the uses and technique of how to actually use magic is extremely recommended, unless of course, said Greater Incubus is willing to run the risks involved with the use of uncontrolled magic, and the destructive consequences that typically follow.

It is widely accepted that of all of the Greater Incubi that may exist within the Demon Realms, none can match the power, stamina, or abilities of the Demon Lord’s husband, often referred to as simply the ‘Incubus Lord’ given both his status, and abilities that dwarf even the most powerful of Greater Incubi. To this date, there has never been a second Incubus Lord or Greater Incubus who could rival, or challenge him, and many suspect, there very well may not be until the next Demon Lord takes her place on the throne. It is merely speculation at this time, but many scholars, including the Succubi whose studies focus on the Incubi, suspect that only one Incubus Lord can exist at a time, much like there is only one Demon Lord to rule over the lands at a time.
