The Succubus class utilises a new resource called 'Charm Points' to cast spells. These recover on long rest, however can also be recovered during combat, such as when using Draining Kiss, or Drain Energy. These effectively act as the Succubus's 'energy' levels. Run out, and you'll be less effective in combat.
I tried to balance the class as best I could, and make it so the class felt like one originally in the game. The class has the 'Sorcerer' tag, meaning you will get Sorcerer dialogue option as I felt that was most appropriate and gives you more dialogue options than if you were to have no tag at all.
There are two Subclasses, Fiendish and Fiery. The Fiendish subclass focuses more on control over your enemies, and the Fiery class more on damage output. In short, the Fiendish class does less damage, but you have spells that are more effective at dominating your enemies and it's slightly easier to recover charm points, but the Fiery class will be able to kill enemies quicker.
Charm Points
Charm points are similar to Ki points in the sense that you cannot upcast the spells. To balance this I made a lot of spells act like cantrips, meaning as you level up they will do more damage or be able to target more enemies.
