	''~~For other uses of the word [[Succubus]], see [[Succubus~~ (~~disambiguation~~)~~]].~~''		'''Succubi''' (singular: '''succubus''') in the ''Pathfinder Chronicles'' campaign setting in the ''Dungeons and Dragons'' role playing game are a race of all female demons infamous across the planes for tempting mortal souls and engendering misery and destruction through their seductive manipulations.


			== Appearance ==
			A succubus, when in her natural form, resembles an incredibly beautiful and alluring human woman, with a lithe figure and dangerously seductive features. Despite their comeliness, succubi possess several clearly demonic attributes, not the least of which are a pair of large, bat-like wings sprouting from their shoulders and sinuous, writhing tails. Of course, it is very rare that a succubus' victim actually sees this form as they are adept at shifting forms to become whatever their victims would find most attractive.<ref name="Bp68">Paizo Staff.

	'''The Pathfinder Chronicles''' campaign setting is a campaign setting designed for Dungeons & Dragons created by Paizo Publishing, LLC. The setting focuses primarily on the world of Golarion and more specifically, the Inner Sea region of Avistan and Garund, but there are at least two additional planets in the setting and a wide array of other planes.

	The Campaign Setting was announced in April, 2007 shortly after the announcement that Paizo would no longer be publishing the official Dungeons & Dragons magazines when their license from Wizards of the Coast expired. The first products to feature the world of Golarion were D1: Crown of the Kobold King and D0: Hollow'~~s Last Hope in June of that year. The main kickoff to the world~~, ~~however~~, ~~occurred two months later at GenCon 2007 when the first Pathfinder Adventure Path~~, Rise of the Runelords debuted. Subsequent product lines supporting the setting have since been released, including the Pathfinder Chronicles and Pathfinder Companion lines. In August, 2008, the hardcover Campaign Setting book was released at GenCon 2008.		==Statistics==
