## Appearance

The Dark Succubus has grey skin, with a singular horn protruding from her head, red eyes, and white hair that reaches her shoulder-blades. She wears black thigh-high stockings, and has demon wings that spread out from her back.

## Behavior

The Dark Succubus guards one of the two gemstones that grant passage to the Succubus Lords' room, blowing kisses at intruders to charm them and tempting them to come closer to her where she can begin draining them of their life force.

If the player comes into contact with the Dark Succubus when uncharmed, she will immediately try to blow a kiss their way. If the kiss comes into contact with the player, they are charmed and start walking slowly towards the Dark Succubus. The player can still break out of the charm before they reach the Dark Succubus.

Should the player come into contact whilst still charmed, she will begin the process of draining the player's life force. The player can escape her grapple at this point, and if successful becomes resistant to future kisses for a short period of time. If however, the player is unsuccessful in escaping her grasp, they will succumb to the pleasure, leaving the Dark Succubus to drain them of their life force completely.

## Encounters

The Dark Succubus is only ever encountered in the **Main Area**.

## 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**.*

When entering the room with the Dark Succubus, you should listen for the sound of her blowing a kiss, then prepare to jump in order to dodge the projectile. You will have five seconds after she blew the kiss to run away from her before she will try to blow another kiss at you if you are still within range. Walking past her whilst uncharmed will cause her to try blowing a kiss towards you, so you will have to dodge again.

If you touch one of the kissing projectiles, you will immediately begin walking towards the Dark Succubus that blew the kiss. Spamming your 'Struggle' key (Spacebar by default) will cause you to break free from the charm. If you reach the Dark Succubus before escaping the charm, the 'Struggle Meter' will reset, and you will need to spam the 'Struggle' key again to escape. Once you are free, you will ignore future projectiles for a time.

You should be careful in Room 3.35, as you can fall down to the first level where a very fast Brown Succubus is patrolling, and she is very hard to avoid, if not impossible in some unlucky circumstances.
