Anti-succubus

Was going to put this on the erotic horror thread but wanted a bit more discussion. I used to have quite the fascination with succubii but lately that's turned. So then I had a thought, what would be a natural predator for a succubus?

Now the first idea I had was just a seemingly defenseless victim turning into some sort of body horror plant that envelops a auccubus right as it grabs the thing's "soul" sort of like a hellish angler fish but that that seemed too basic

So then I had another idea. Fears of sex have lead to a lot of horror inspiration and while it wasn't their initial role, succubii fight nicely into sexual fear stories (you find someone attractive and go away with them, only to find yourself murdered by them during or after the act). Now in some stories with succubii, they are a punishment of sorts: a guy is cheating on his wife by seeing a prostitute so if the prostitute suddenly tears out his soul, well he invited that fate.


However succubii rarely get more characterization than just being hungry demons who take advantage of mortals (Fall From Grace from Planescape and the succubus from the Felix Castor novels notwithstanding, or Morrigan from Darkstalkers (she kills lots of men but she has other things to deal with)...so it got me thinking.

A succubus pretending to be a prostitute sees a guy looking at her but then looking away just as quickly. She walks over and initiates a conversation. Guy is interested but wants a bit more comfort in addition to a sexual release. Succubus rolls her eyes but offers a girlfriend experience. She suffers through a date and then gets the guy to go to bed with her, despite him trying to back out. She gets him to cum, taking his soul out...cringing at the effort she had to go through...and then feels sick.

She then feels her whole being get crushed under some great weight and realizes it's the soul she just removed. It's not a mere guy's soul but rather hundreds of souls that are all huge balls of frenzied emotions, filled with anxiety, nervousness, infatuation, lust, satisfaction, horrror, need, etc. she tries to push it all away but the soul just keeps crushing her until her soul is destroyed, ground up and integrated into the soul. Her body then gets up, now inhabited by the new soul,

The being that thrived on emotionless sex gets killed by all the raw emotion they ignored.

So what are your thoughts? What would make a good antithesis to a succubus?

Options, some fairly obvious:

* An angelic nemesis, a holy hunter of the unholy
* A human demon-hunter because tragedy-revenge
* Big parasites laying their eggs in succubus' bodies
* Little parasites infesting and feeding on their auras
* A league of anti-succubus nerds led by a mad priest
* A nefarious gov't agency seeking to exploit demons
* Same idea but with bent magicians Hitler recruited

For other angles, we must consider the nature of the succubus and incubus. Are these supernatural creatures of {JHWH}, mutated fallen angels, spawn of Satan, or other such mystic spirits? Are they mutant humans with great powers (maybe after being hit by lightning)? Are they pre-human revenants precariously living in the shadows of society? Are they ET-aliens preying on humanity? Are they clouds of microbes taking humanoid form?
 
How about a branch of the FBI assigned to seek out and destroy succubi wherever they can find them? Call it the seX-Files. Special Agents Cox Mulder and Dana Skullfuck bicker and banter as they dispatch the dangerous demons to their destined doom.
 
The parasite ideas are kind of interesting, especially the egg laying ones (a succubus would need to keep feeding, fertilizing and developing the egg).

I wasn't thinking organizations, more or less something that naturally hunts or would be harmful to succubii. Like if succubii were badgers then these things would be dachshunds

Or the larva would just eat her.

Then we're stuck with demon hunters: angelic or obsessively human or robotic or alien... or some mindless little dog-things, demonic pit-bulls. But that's not too erotic. I'd go with an enhanced human guy who attracts and then subdues and maybe destroys lured succubi.
