Pleasurers are an RCC designed more or less exclusively for the purpose as the name implys. They're shapeshifters with a constant super empathy. They're from Phase World though.
Saloon girls get a bonus but in genearl suck.
Those are the only OCC's I can think of.

I think there's a saloon girl or something like that in New West. Also there's the Zenith Moon Warper that's actually a wolf thing that can turn into a sexy human, and there's an alien in Phase World that is a shape shifter called a Pleasurer or something like that?
Of course you could just roll up some other kind of character and use your high PB and MA to seduce people.
Damn you Nekira! I just noticed you got in before me, not only with the same, but better answers.
The word "THAN" is important. Something is "better than" something else, not "better then", it's "rather than" not "rather then".

Saloon Girls and Professional Gamblers from WB14: New West are the only O.C.C.s I know of that grant a bonus to Seduction.
Mind Melters get +10%

Saloon Girl OCC in the new west is the closest thing to a formal seductress OCC in in the PB cannon.
While there are RCC's that also seduce, they are RCC's.

Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.
Reading and writing (literacy) is how people on BBS interact.
I would say that Seductress is more a style than it is a job. With the right skills and stats you could be a seductive psychic or mercenary or mage. A Mystic with the right combo of skills, spells and psychic powers could have a man wrapped around her pinky. You could even make a case for a really sexy Rogue Scholar. "Mmmm. After I finish eating this banana, I will teach you about history." "Yes, teacher!! We are listening to every word you say!"

The Saloon Girl is okay as an NPC, but as an actual PC...they are lacking. No MDC armor to start, for one. Other than their bonus to Seduction, they need alot of help. I think Vagabonds might even be better.

Yeah, I was considering the Vagabond. They have the potential to become anything, really.

It's not like they're made for combat. Sure, they need a lot of help to be something they're not, but isn't that usually the case.

Their M.A. is 4D6, their P.B. is 3D6+9, rich as all hell to buy the nicest things to better themselves and they get Seduction as a RCC skill with a +20%
That is if you let them into your game.

any PC is only as good as thier player. I have had fun with Saloon girl characters. rich cowboys bought her armour and a few pistols. She was fun to play and had a high MA, PB and PP
Pleasure Bunnies in After the Bomb 2nd edition are AMAZING seductresses. They can even release pheremones that can aid them. That is the first place I'd go for that.

There's also the She-Devil, a.k.a. Deevil Siren, a.k.a. Demon's Mistress, a.k.a. Deevil Rifter, a.k.a. Nexus Deevil, a Lesser Devil found in one of the most recent publications, Rifts Dimension Book 11 : Dyval, pages 62-65.
Of course, the Succubus, a Lesser Demon found in Rifts Dimension Book 10 : Hades, pages 59-60, might be another consideration.
**You did say O.C.C., but if you were a player in my group, we would pass your character off as a seductive O.C.C. type, but only you and the gamemaster would be in on the true identity of your character until eventually the other players figured it out.**
Kyra Shadowborn wrote:basically my GM is doing the Minion War...but he is having 2 groups of PC's (demons and deevils) to fight one another. For this scenario, i have been made a succubus, however, all that applies to them are R.C.C stats, i was just wondering if there was some way to make it more interesting than say, just calling her a master assassin that uses "seduction" as her primary weapon. Yes its a skill, but not all assassins have or need/want that skill, so thats why i am trying to find something that makes her more thats just a succubus or assassin. I thought MAYBE there was some kind of O.C.C that that could help me do this. Again thanks to all for there ideas...Kyra
If your GM is allowing you to take an O.C.C. for your Succubus why not go with an Assassin O.C.C. (either Palladium Fantasy or Rifts Mercenaries). Since the Succubus is a natural seductress adding the assassin O.C.C. seems to me more what you're looking for.
