Succubus/Incubus

2nd of Baridi, 2 Aftermath

Contrary to popular belief succubi and incubi are capable of having children, but they can turn the ability on and off at will because they only see fit to reproduce with others of their kind. They live off sexual energy, however, and will have sex with anything that's willing (and sometimes unwilling if they're starving) and so need a way to keep from becoming pregnant or impregnating others.

Citrine was born a pure breed succubi, and was raised by their mother as was tradition. Incubi do not make very good fathers, so when an incubi and a succubi agree to have a child the encounter is rough and can last for days to ensure pregnancy before the father leaves and the mother raises the child. While she was pregnant Citrine's mother hung around a whore house to absorb sexual energy from the air since she could not have sex with the child developing inside of her. This energy fed her and the developing baby, who was born just a month later since succubi have an advanced growth rate. Once they were born they were named Citrine for the color of their eyes, and the strange mark on their stomach around their bellybutton was just passed off as and odd mark and nothing more.

Thanks to that same advanced rate of growth by the time they were about 3 years old Citrine had the mental capacity of a teenager and the body to match. They went willingly into the employ of the house, doing it purely for their own food needs and keeping the money they earned only to keep a place to live. However, in time living in Gravebridge was too much for the young succubus, as they wanted to do something more with herself. They found that something more in art, mainly painting and two dimensional art forms but they also experimented in three dimensional art such as sculpture and jewelry making. They was never quite as good at it but she had her own unique charm, and soon Citrine had their own spacious house near the whore house, knowing they were always welcome to work when they needed to satisfy their food needs.

So began Citrine's life of being an artist by day and a prostitute by night, and thankfully being a succubus meant they had no real need for sleep, only doing so to restore the same energy they get from feeding though at a much lower return rate. As long as they see at least one client a night they can go for a full day completely energized, which helps in the long run since their job as an artist brings in some but not enough to pay for the lifestyle.

The scar came about as an accident with a mirror they were trying to install in the art studio. The mirror fell to the ground and shattered, some of the glass scratching up their face. Doctors said they might never see again, but the same cell growth that made their fast aging possible also gave them advanced healing powers and they was better in no time. Well, except for the scar. The scar remained, and though Citrine doesn't know why they have simply accepted it as part of themselves and thinks that it makes them beautiful in a unique way.

At some point Citrine had set up an art show and the person hosting it decided some extra security was needed. Topaz was among those, and as Citrine was making sure things were all set up they felt the undeniable spark of a Soul Mate. Unusual that it should come from a celestian as, supposedly, they were created with whole souls and thus would not need Soul Mates but Citrine knew what they had felt and would not deny it. When the show was over they tracked Topaz down, explaining the situation and knowing that even if they didn't understand at first Topaz had felt it too.

For a time the pair lived happily together, but then it became clear Khelgard was making its move to gather the Chosen Ones and make the prophecy a reality. Not wanting to get caught together and be each other's weaknesses they decided to split up; Citrine stayed in Gravebridge, where they had a life, a reputation to fall back on if things went bad, and a way to get the food they needed without too much worry. Topaz took off for Lito, hoping to keep their head down and find work in the land of the Fire God.
