Succubus

A succubus is a female demon or supernatural entity in folklore (traced back to medieval legend) that appears in dreams and takes the form of a woman in order to seduce men, usually through sexual activity. The male counterpart is the incubus. Religious traditions hold that repeated sexual activity with a succubus may result in the deterioration of health or even death.
In modern representations, a succubus may or may not appear in dreams and is often depicted as a highly attractive seductress or enchantress; whereas, in the past, succubi were generally depicted as frightening and demonic.
==Etymology==

The word is derived from Late Latin ''succuba'' "paramour"; from ''succub(āre)'' "to lie under" (''sub-'' "under" + ''cubāre'' "to lie in bed"),〔(【引用サイトリンク】title= Succuba )〕 used to describe the supernatural being as well. The word "Succubus" originates from the late 14th century.
