Spirits of Love

Spirits of Love, sometimes called Spirits of Beauty, are magical beings originating from the roots of Aurion.

Commonly known as Succubi/Inccubi, they traverse all planes in an effort to promote their aspects. Their aspects can vary widely and can even be changed throughout their life. There were many attempts at categorising these beings, however such effort is just as futile as trying to categorise the different forms of Demons, for the unending variety makes this impossible, which to an extent the Spirits of Love are. Not all Spirits of Love are Demons or even Fiends, although they undisputably have demonic origins.

However there are some key commonalities between the different Spirits of Love and it is very rare to find forms that are not unique in some way. One could say that love comes in many flavours...

Major commonalities include:

* Major Aspect of their being, which they will attempt to promote through their surroundings.

These can include things such as Lust, Joy, Passion, Loyalty, Forgiveness, and many others that are

* Visual aspects, which can also indicate what form they have adopted. And can also provide clues to their Major Aspects.

For example, Spirits occupying the lower planes often prefer forms which are similar to other Fiends.

* Methods through which they promote their aspects.

### Forms

The Spirits are beings of mental energy. Their forms are not fixed and they can change their form in any way they wish. They do keep their favourites however and often let the other beings around them influence their visage. For example a Spirit in the Feywild can appear as some form of fey, while a spirit of the same aspect chooses a more Celestial look when living in the upper planes.

Along with their physical forms their sex can change freely as well as their gender. Once again however, they do have their preferences.

Their aspects usually have some connection to their appearance or at least provide clues to them. The following is not a list that would apply universally in any way, nor a one that could be considered complete, however these commonalities seem to be true with the lawful-leaning succubi.

* White - Loyalty
* Black - Malice (Spirits touched by evil, representing abusive relationships)
* Purple - Lust
* Red - Passion
* Green - Jealousy
* Blue - Knowledge
* Grey - Sadness
* Brown - Care
* Gold - Mercy, Forgiveness

It is common that a spirit features a colour asociated with their aspect in most of their forms... unless they are truly in hiding, in which case the feature is subtle or not present at all.

### Aspects

Spirits of Love are formed of some mental aspect, such as Ideals or Emotions. These aspects are their life neccessity. The spirit has to constantly surround herself or induce her aspect within someone. These mental states have to be genuine however and the spirit can sense the absense of their aspect.

### Cosmology

Spirits of Love traverse all planes but for a few exceptions where they cannot live. Such worlds are usually the ones void of all emotion, where any form of mental state is dulled or simply alien to the plane. Many of these worlds are Lawful in nature. Similar conditions apply to some planes of chaos, where demonic energies are so overwhelming that no coherent emotional structures (such as Love) can form. As a being of mental energies the spirit is completely susceptible to such effects and can wither or mutate within these environments.
