I'm not particularly a fan of gender swap, that's why I wrote differently for SC. In SC, Succubus and Incubus are two different beings.Hey, sorry for barging in this discussion, but I have intersting trivia to add here. According to Malleus Maleficarum, medieval treatise on witches and demons, incubus and succubus are two forms of very same being. This demon is immaterial, so he can't produce his own semen, so he steals human seed instead. First it appears in human male's dream as beautiful woman, makes man ejaculate (happened to me too, duh), then steal semen to store and corrupt it. Then they shift their form to handsome man, go to woman's dream and inseminate them with corrupted seed. That's literally how they recreate, according to treatise.
Obviously not the case in this exact lore, but i still think that sex-shifting mechanics is very cool, and very underestimated. I only saw it used once in hentai doujinshi.
If I was going by the original myth, they would also only appear in dreams.
Another thing that I'm not a fan of, as I prefer real physical bodies that appear in reality, with real interactions.
