{{Monstergirls}}
Incubi are integeral to the lore of the [[Monster Girl Encyclopedia]] - whatsat? How can an incubus, a by-defininition '''male''' monster, become a [[monstergirl]] and still be called incubus? Well, don't worry, they're not [[dickgirl]]s; it all has to do with the heavy Corruption Fetishism that the setting is built on.

See, the MGE world runs on the principle that there are two main kinds of [[mana]]; Spiritual Energy, produced by humans, and Demonic Energy, produced by demons (or mamono, in their native weeaboo). Demonic energy consumes spiritual energy, sort of like necrotic energy in D&D. As such, when a human is inundated with too much demonic energy, it changes them. Women turn into monstergirls; the "lesser succubus" is the iconic form of this, but virtually any monstergirl is possible depending on various factors. Men, on the other hand, don't react this way (barring gay men, who turn into reverse-[[trap]] succubi called Alps) - instead, they turn into what are called "Incubi".

In the MGE world, an incubus has absorbed so much demonic energy that it forms a ying-yang cycle with their spiritual energy (long story short, men produce spirit energy far more frequently and copiously than women do, which actually has its base in real Asian beliefs about soul energies, but still feels kind of skeezy). This results in them transforming into masculine "pseudo-monsters"; their bodies change into a more idealized form (youthful, slender, handsome), their virility and stamina increases massively, their personality becomes much more hedonistic and sex-obsessed, and they get some other benefits too.

Because men don't corrupt as easily as women, an incubus never comes into being unless a man has heavily bonded with a monstergirl lover - there are certain overpowered mamono who can force a near-immediate corruption in men, such as the [[Basilisk]] and the Ushi-oni, but they still "imprint" their essence on the new incubus. This has certain side-effects. The first two are that, one, the incubus can now physically sustain himself through sex with his bonded mamono, and two, the incubus is "marked" in the eyes of other monsters, which may either prevent them from trying to court him or encourage them, depending on their attitude towards monogamy & polygamy. Another side effect is that their physical appearance will shift to fit their bonded mamono's preferences - this won't make them physically inhuman, but if their wife is, say, a shotacon, then they'll end up looking like a young boy. Mind you, mamono bonded to an incubus find their subtle physical traits shifting to match his idealized form - which doubtlessly leads to amusement when a [[loli]] mamono snags herself a man with a tit fetish and winds up an oppai loli. However, in the case of traits inherent to the race, the man's preferences will shift to find those attractive, such as their wives horns or even comparably mundane traits of the monster that are still innate to them like the massive tits of a Holstaur. Finally, the incubus will pick up various subtle mystical powers to better match their chosen mate(s), such as breathing water, tolerance for extreme temperatures, darkvision, etc.
