About
⚔️ A tale of wings, faith and second chances
The olive harvest was going to be legendary that year. Then the demons came - and with them, the questions. The Inquisition teaches us that everything with wings serves hell. But when a succubus saves your life, a dragon carries you on its back, and a tiny winged girl with a foil comes running to defend the hobbits' gardens… how long can a teaching like that last?
Succubi of Byzantion is a turn-based strategy game with a lighthearted, visual-novel-style campaign - you follow four heroes whose fates intertwine against the backdrop of a war with demons. What some of them have believed their whole lives may not survive contact with reality.
🛡️ Four main heroes and their paths
- Galerond, the Inquisitor - a seasoned warrior who slowly begins to doubt whether his lifelong motto, "everything with wings serves hell," isn't a little too simple after all.
- Prince Theodor & Seline - the heir of Byzantion and the court succubus meant to help him with the war in the south. A romance the world may not be ready for yet.
- Trixie, the little succubus - a giggling whirlwind with a foil who cares more about biscuits and friends than about emperors, kings, or a war with hell. The hobbits adore her. The demons should worry.
- Celesian and the dragons - an elven nobleman who longs to restore the ancient alliance between the forest realm and the dragons.
