I always end up killing frog babies by stranding them on roofs.... Behind blocked mine shifts... cutting down their treehouse... digging holes under them... collapsing floors... deconstructing bridges... first attacked by invading armies... locked outside during a megabeast/titan/dragon attack... generally exterminator and frog babies are the worst... they are so antisocial they end up where no one is and then you can't get them to move.

I've been playing some Succubus recently and have been having these issues as well, and I think I have an idea for them. I don't know DF hack, so I'm not sure if it is possible, but a 'Summon Spirit of Corruption' interaction at the summoning portal might do the trick. For the cost of a prepared meal, a random sentient non-Succubus baby or child on the map is transformed into tame adult non-sentient evil biome creature.

Another idea might be a 'Corrupt Restless Spirit' option at the Den of Inequity that turns a non-Succubus ghost on the map into something useful. Perhaps even a 'Combine Ghosts into Horrible Fell Spirit' that can serve as an alternate means of summoning a demon.

---

On another note, I've been wanting to practice modding raws, and would love to contribute a bit over winter break. I'm open to suggestions for where I can help, but I was thinking of making Succubus castes for the fortress defense races; It would be easy enough for my first experimentation with the raws, as I'd have the castes you made and the original fortress defense races to use as a baseline.

hey BOLTGUN, I found an error, in reaction_succubus.txt, line 348, in the float clear block reaction:
   [PRODUCT:100:10:WINDOW:NONE:GLASS_CLEAR:NONE]
it should be:
   [PRODUCT:100:10:BLOCKS:NONE:GLASS_CLEAR:NONE]

Got it, this will be fixed as soon as I send a patch to Meph.

By the way, prisoner corruption has been made easier by using only a tenth of a soap bar. So if the succubi grab the bar to take a bath, it is still usable in the reaction.

That is not a problem by itself.  ;)

I also made an attempt in stopping body fluids from burning creatures. I only managed to prevent it from burning grass. Spitting on enemies is still a one hit kill.

I've never noticed it being a 1hko, per say, in adventure mode.
Just mildly harmful.

Still, that's what happens when your internal temperature is comparable to lava.
 I pity the moron who tries to sleep with a succubus while not being corrupted themself.

I used the Meph tileset, but the graph of succubus is still the same as the phoebus tileset. I found the document of new graph of succubus of Meph teileset but dont know how to use them.

This may be a dumb question considering the succubus immunity to fire and lava, but are succubi at all affected by ambient temperature? Like when you embark in a scorching area.

No, they aren't. You can also embark on a freezing biome.

Apologies for probably dumb question, i haven't played DF 2 or 3 years or something like this, it took 3 days to generate world with embark site which I like, (glumprongs,terrifying biome, ocean shore, river and rain of blood with alot of neighbors) and atm I really want to play instead of inspecting raws and wiki.. Is optimal succubus uniform look like this?  ::)

Almost, you can add a metallic corset under the leather armor / breastplate to add another layer of solid protection. The corset is only 75% coverage but being underwear it stacks.

While we wait for the next DF version, here's the patch fixing issues with corruption :

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B8QFWS9tHkaaWjdTczBXSmtIY3M/view?usp=sharing

To install it, unzip the archive into the Dwarf Fortress subfolder, overwriting existing files, then generate a new world.

Enjoy.
