Classes
Seductress
She is the mistress of manipulation disguised in the delicate robes of sensual pleasure. An artist of the flesh, she molds emotions, sculpts passion, and paints her whims upon the minds of her victims. Whatever her motivation is, personal desire or the simple wish to toy with another, she is the harbinger of one's most carnal needs. Predatory and vivacious, a lovely being and yet one you are never sure of. She is your confidante but if it improves her life style she can be secretive enough to pass it along in a most sly manner that is masterful in its creative flow. Never underestimate the power of a Seductress, it may very well be the last taste of freedom you ever had for she is an addiction you must always taste and indulge within.

Mindset:
She is the mistress of manipulation disguised in the delicate robes of sensual pleasure. An artist of the flesh, she molds emotions, sculpts passion, and paints her whims upon the minds of her victims. Whatever her motivation is, personal desire, or the simple wish to toy with another, she is the harbinger of one's most carnal needs. She is a unique creature in the sense that where others resort to physical means, or overt magic's, in an attempt to persuade the object of their desires to bend to their will, the Seductress is far more subtle. Her skills, and talents with magic's, are based on the idea that still waters run deep. There is more to the Seductress than meets the eye.
Her beauty captivates, and can even hypnotize, which easily distracts the onlooker from what lies beneath. The consummate sexual predator.
Concept:
With skills and spells focused on the sexual aspects of her victims, the Seductress is the very definition of what legends are made of. Whether they are Sirens, Succubus, or other alluring, sexual, creatures of history that are known for leading their prey away from reason, when it comes down to it, they all are Seductresses. These females are deceptive in ways that make many shudder with fear, and others, with darker sides, tingle with the hopes that they will be the next victim. All in all, the Seductress is the kind of predator that all creatures should use the utmost caution when interacting with them.
Advantage:
Subtle Caress
A seductress is a master at concealing their actions as using their art, preferring to make their victim feel as if they are coming to the actions they are forced to on their own will. They may cast with a softness of voice, or more subtle gestures that will allow them a chance of having their acts go unnoticed by those who are their prey.
Mechanics: The roll is a simple INT vs. INT and the higher roll wins. If the Seductress' roll is higher, then she goes unnoticed, or her spell casting/skill use is undetected, whichever best applies.
Disadvantage:
Fickle Emotions
Because of her ability to toy with almost anyone, the sexual playground for the Seductress is limitless. In this, she rarely attaches herself to any one being, instead wishing to sample any she deems worthy of her attention, whether it is pleasure that motivates her, or vengeance. And because her focus is that of the flesh, she simply does not have the understanding of deeper emotions. At best she can feel the intense lust for another, an obsession, perhaps, but not -love- in its truest sense. As a result, there is no such thing as a monogamous Seductress, a true oxymoron.
