Fetorculus: The Musk-Clad Incubus
Origin
Fetorculus emerged from the primordial miasma of a forgotten swamp, a confluence of decaying organic matter and corrupted lust. Unlike other demons born from infernal pacts or divine wrath, Fetorculus is a creature of spontaneous generation, a testament to the chaotic energies that fester within the earth’s hidden places. His birth was accompanied by a noxious stench that lingered for centuries, poisoning the surrounding land and warping the minds of those who dared to venture close.
Bloodline
Fetorculus doesn't belong to any established demonic lineage. He is considered an anomaly, a self-formed entity whose essence is a bizarre blend of earthly decay and infernal desire. He is utterly unique, a solitary branch on the demonic family tree, if it can even be called that.
Authority
Fetorculus holds dominion over the seductive power of putrefaction. He wields the potent magic of decay and corruption, using it to tempt his victims and weave illusions of pleasure born from the foulest of sources. His influence subtly warps desires, turning healthy lust into a craving for the forbidden and the grotesque.
Skills
Fetorculus possesses a mastery over toxins and pheromones. He can exude a powerful musk that enthralls and weakens his targets, making them vulnerable to his seductive advances. He's also a skilled illusionist, weaving deceptive visions of carnal pleasure to further his perverse goals. His physical strength, though not overwhelming, is enhanced by his corrupted vitality; his claws and horns are surprisingly sharp.
Significant Events
- The Rotting Revelry: Fetorculus' first recorded appearance involved a bacchanalian feast where he corrupted a village, turning its inhabitants into grotesque parodies of hedonistic pleasure seekers, their bodies slowly rotting while their minds remained consumed by desire. The event ended in a gruesome massacre and the permanent contamination of the surrounding land.
- The Whispering Plague: A subtle and insidious plague spread through a vast city, its victims driven to madness and unnatural acts of lust by Fetorculus' whispered promises of forbidden ecstasy. The plague’s effects were only reversed by a powerful cleansing ritual conducted by a group of dedicated exorcists.
- The Pact of the Putrid: In an attempt to gain greater power, Fetorculus sought to forge a pact with a particularly vile entity residing deep within the earth. The attempt was ultimately unsuccessful, leaving Fetorculus scarred and weakened, though the experience did enhance his control over decay.
