## Appearance

The Red Succubus has red hair, fitting her name, reaching down to her shoulders with red eyes to match. She has demonic wings sprouting from her back and a pointed tail, and wears a length of purple fabric wrapped around her waist and chest, like a pareo, and lastly she adorns a pink tiara on her head.

## Behavior

The Red Succubus patrols the room she is in, with a green sightline in front of her that is visible to the player. The succubus has the standard patrolling pattern; She will follow her patrol route, and at each end will wait a set amount of time, before heading in the opposite direction to the other side of her patrol.

If the player is found in the sightline then it will turn red, the succubus will yell out to the player, and she will immediately start running towards them. If the player manages to escape the succubus' sightline for 3 seconds, she will return to her patrol path.

If she manages to reach the player, she will restrain them and attempt to drain their life force. Should the player manage to escape her grapple, she will return to her patrol route and ignore the player for a time. If however, the player is unsuccessful in escaping her grasp, they will succumb to the pleasure, leaving the succubus to drain them of their life force completely.

## Strategy

*If you would like a full walkthrough of Drain Mansion, please visit the **Walkthrough** page as it contains a much more in-depth guide on how to clear every area of the game. There is also an official, prettier version of the Walkthrough provided by the developer **as DLC**.*

### Patrolling

When the succubus looks away from you, you must either run for a closet that is in the middle of the patrol path and enter it before the succubus sees you, or jump over the succubus if the roof is high enough and you have the 'Winged Shoes'. In the event of there being two closets, you must discern which of them hosts the Closet Demon and enter the other one.

If you are spotted by the succubus, you should run for the nearest door and jump above the succubus' sightline if the ceiling is high enough, as exiting the sightline whilst still being chased causes the succubus to slow down a little and give you time to escape.

If you are caught, you should spam your 'Struggle' key (Spacebar by default) to struggle against the succubus' grasp as fast as you can. Once you are free, you should run for the closest closet that is not inhabited by the Closet Demon, to give the Succubus time to move away so you can escape.

### Released From Her Cage

In Room 2.2, the Red Succubus is caged up which prevents her from attacking you. The switch to deactivate the cage is next to the door leading out from Room 2.1 to 2.2, so if you find that she is free, you will need to return to Room 2.1 before she reaches you to activate the cage, or escape into another room temporarily.

## Author's Notes

The Red Succubus, or the Princess Succubus truly acts like a noble, treating the player as nothing more than a mere slave. She can sometimes be found locked up in a cage from where you can let her out, if you so please; but keep in mind that she is super deadly and inescapable.
