1 Life Force can be spent to reduce a difficulty rating by one. When the Succubus drains Life Force, a victim loses one Willpower point. Every point of Willpower a Succubus drains equals 1 dot in Life Force. To Drain Life Force the player rolls Strength + Life Force Drain. Basically, the Succubus grabs her victim and must stare into his eyes. A victim may roll Strength on a future turn to break away. If a victim's full Willpower is drained the victim falls asleep for 8 days.

A Succubus can regain Life Force without draining a victim if she finds a Node.
