can be applied to Liches, vampires, Cerberus etc as needed.
Because we already know that Ubisoft is using the names, but uses their version of it. Sometimes expectation roused by a name just differs from the real experience. 
Obviously, in Ashan Succubae can be real nice gals - likeable, sexy, part of a happy three- or foursome with an Angel Seductress, and generally everything an adolescent boy might dream about, including the kinkier stuff.
In short, Succubae (and probably Incubi as well) work as PR agents for Urgash, advertising the brighter side of demon worshipping.
I mean, why so serious?

For those who think the H5 succubus is ugly and question her flaming pubes, remember that succubi are masters of illusion. You think you are bedding a gorgeous gal, but suddenly she turns out to be a demoness burning you Johnson and taking your soul

Well ... When I said I wanted to bring back some beauty, I didn't mean boobs nor expected a huge debate whether the Succubus is hot or not. 
Before we completely change the subject, from all Succubi posted, here is my winner:

The point is really not a question of seducing the player, but being attractive enough that you as a player can imagine the unit will be able to quite easily seduce ingame characters. Overall, the game uses representations to indicate concepts. Stack size number on a creature is a representation of a regiment, you don't see the full regiment. The battle field is a representation of a real battlefield, like you might see in the Total War games.
So why would a Succubus be represented ingame as the real deal, which would bring the game to 18+?

There's no way a succubus has to look like. The main defining attribute is its ability to enthrall and instill lust into its victims. It can look like a voluptuous model, or it can be hairy with tails and hooves. What you guys are doing is describe a version of a succubus that you yourselves desire. Sometimes I think you forgot what the purpose of a succubus is. Try viewing things from its perspective. A succubus is not there to give you sex, it's there to take your soul away and hurt you. An encounter with a succubus would be a tease, where there's a promise but no delivery, and the succubus takes pleasure in that, it likes to see you tormented. If you resists the temptation, the succubus is powerless because under free will it cannot hurt you. But if you desire it, then it'll have its way with you.
Notice how I say "it" and not "she". Because a succubus is a form of a demon, and demons like angels are gender-less. So there's no carnal desire from it, it's just a desire to harm you and enslave your soul.
Well, in Ashan, none of this has to be true. Succubi can lust and have intercourse if one so wants. They can take whichever form you like, a more sensual one with voluptuous forms, a more BDSM one with whips and chains, a more pure one alluding to chastity, doesn't matter. I just has to instill lust.
My 2 cents.
Anyway, I think the Succubus is the last problem this franchise has.

That actually sounds pretty hot.
By the way, I mentioned that I cannot stand looking at Uriel's face.
I mean, find me a decent official artwork of him besides this one. Honestly, why did they have to give him such an ugly design...

Isn't it funny that they got problems with the only creature that should be sexualized, yet they manage to turn dungeon into a town of hookers (I'm looking at you H5)
JollyJoker said:
You can't do that in a 12+ game - it wouldn't be easy anyway.
That's why Succubae are a pretty difficult matter.
Actually it's 16+ now, so it shouldn't be that hard, 16+ allows nudity. And seriously, which 16 year old with internet connection haven't seen porn nowdays, the succubus would be softcore

I dont even get where are you trying to get, you're being argumentative for the sake of it. A demon daring to have a not supermodel face is ok. The Ashan succubi and incubi have powers for that snow but even then it's just how the model was designed. Xana, Lamia, Daeva, Jezebeth and the Succubi/Lilim artwork has them having good looking faces.

I keep wondering how many pages of this thread have been filled with this succubus subject, a simple unit that's not even going to be in H7 - as far as it goes.
It's almost as if we start talking about potatoes - well, attractive sort of potatoes, that is. Burning, lusty and sensual potatoes (hmmmm).

As long as H7 keeps being only a normal game, rather uninteresting to talk about, there won't be anything worth more than discussing burning boobs, it seems. :/
