[From user: dreadsexy. Interesting choice on Pidonus's part.]

Hey, this is Pidonus Marasia. I'm trying to figure out my goals and motivations and such a bit while I'm here, because the more I'm reviewing the situation, the more likely it is that it's gonna be quite some time before we find my world and I can return to my Queen. So, I gotta come up with motivations for myself,
I guess? Other than, you know, the dungeons. Which have some very weird loot, to say the least...

Anyways! I'd kinda like to try and get some, well, minions for myself. People willing to let me influence their minds into long-term servitude. Key word there is willing, because as quite a few people here have emphasized, it'd be a mistake for me to just take people's wills with my seductive powers.

Of course, anyone who would voluntarily agree to being under my spell is someone with clear and very severe issues. Like, if your mindstate's bad enough that "under the maniplation of a Succubus" qualifies to your own perception as an improvement... I mean, whatever floats your boat I guess, but I'm pretty sure in some cities that would legally qualify you as 'kind of insane'.

So, uh... What does that leave? I genuinely don't know. I'm. Sorta new to the whole 'need to have my own motivations' thing, and the Chaotic and Evil subtypes unto themselves don't do a lot for giving me ideas.

Then it sounds to me as if what you want isn't so much to have minions, as to feel as if you're superior to others. It's a feeling I can certainly relate to, after having spent most of my life at the whims of others.

The illusion of self-superiority's kinda easy when I have all sorts of advantages on humans. So... Kinda, I guess?

[foolishjustice]

But it's hardly very comforting when you know it's an illusion. I doubt anyone is going to let someone with uncertain goals have a position of superiority over them, even without the mental influence, but perhaps a firm relationship of equals would be a good start?

You would be surprised how much of an impact it can make to have someone who considers you a friend.

... Can't say I've had many of those...

[foolishjustice]

Neither did I, until fairly recently.

Would you like to be friends, Marisia-san?

[have_hat_will_travel]

I... Think so?
