      Eh. Depends on the setting. They are usually shapechangers anyways which makes most labels iffy anyways.

      According to the forgotten realms wiki:

      In fact, with their shapechanging powers, incubi and succubi could both change their sex with ease, though most had a preference for one or the other.

      I would therefore say that (at least in the forgotten realms) if this instance of fiend prefers he/him pronouns but is presenting femme or they consider themself a succubus and prefer being feminine but are currently presenting masculine the combination of pronouns he/him and label succubus seem perfectly normal.

        Yeah but what really happened was OP fucked up and we’re politely covering for them.

        AFAIK in actual mythology they are also considered sexless spirits that can incarnate as either male or female depending on the situation/target. There’s even tales about such spirits seducing both sexes after each other in order to cause impregnation, since they cannot actually procreate themselves.

    You mean demons that personify seduction would know how to exploit your weakness beyond just carnal desire?

    an incubus finds an asexual person. the incubus asks “would you rather: unlimited bacon, but no more video games, or games, unlimited games, but no more games”

    the person is killed by the incubus for not understanding the question

    I’m asexual IRL and can confirm arcane knowledge is irresistible. You can often find me reading dusty old tomes from the past. The dustier the better.
