Hell at the moment was rather pleasant, but that was only because it was raining in the abyss, a good gust from heaven would clear out the storm system and the volcanoes would stink up the place faster than a flatulent cat. The problem wasn't the volcanoes, which like as not were rather necessary with the whole lake of fire thing and for illumination as hell had no other light source, rather it was the large amounts of gas they put out which with the enclosed roof and all, well... stank. Tantala, Tana for short, sipped her drink with the verve of a newly minted, well... winged and horned at least, succubus. She was on the last day of a two day pass before getting her first assignment in the mortal realm.

Thus out of options the department had appealed the head of the metaphysical debt collection and philosophy department, Lucifer; the normally extremely crafty former seraphim (he still worked for god, but not as a messenger, well not a direct messenger at least, plus the pay was better and he got to be a badass doing the occasional dirty work for the department upstairs, the health insurance wasn't bad either), could only think of one solution: to expand the powers that succubae would have in the mortal realm. This solution however presented a problem, all metaphysical careers had designated powers, angels were messengers, mortals were clueless but had the power to change things, devils enforced the law of debts, and demons were the test engineers responsible for breaking everything in order fix it and make it better in the long run; therefore expanding the powers of the succubae in the mortal realm would be invading the turf of the mortals (a popular career, a new experience every time guaranteed), stepping hard on the toes of the angels and well... absolutely nothing to the devils.

This had, to nobody's surprise flooded the department with new recruits ready to have fun in the mortal realm, most failed the pretest and most of the rest failed their succubae certification boards (they were only in it for the new powers). Tantala who had been in training since her creation two centuries ago, had just barely passed her boards after nearly failing the oral exam in seduction (she forgot to swallow, and her wingtip claw decapitated the proctor), and completely blanking on her speech in rhetoric and revolution (when a succubus blanks, they begin to forget to maintain the reality of their cloths, causing the cloths to vanish, failures such as these may be why so many people have the nightmare of failing a test while naked) . Nevertheless she had passed and had received her permanent wings (bat size five and a half, with spade tail), her horns of office (black, curl back style, scalp mount) and the complementary makeover.

Finishing her drink, she yawned and turned to the succubus that would be mentoring her in the coming weeks, a member of the team that had first tested the newly granted powers Desmedona was an extremely experienced field operative rumored to have attempted (whether she succeeded or not she's not telling) to seduce almost every serving pope, US president (oddly enough not including Clinton, she was busy elsewhere at the time), and every reigning monarch who served during the year 1752 A.D.

"If we act to openly, like we did in the old days people will blame us and the whole thing will fail, most likely causing a major catastrophe in the mortal realm, but if we apply ourselves selectively and anonymously we can force several key issues that the boss wants on the table."

"Level 443, Moral temptation department please" Tana says before stepping through, Des following right after.

"Well I'd better get some sleep so I'll be awake at the briefing tomorrow morning" Says Tana, clearly nervous.

So ends part 1 of a, I don't know how long, series about the adventures of a newly horned succubi named Tantala. Next time: Tana finds out her mission, someone's getting yiffed, Des rides the Bare Edge of Disaster, and maybe just maybe someone gets transformed.
