Here's a draft of my entry. Dentris was awesome and happened to have my old entry still on his computer, so I got to reuse a lot of the background and description stuff, for free. It hurt losing some of those sweet powers, but the new rules are way more balanced - and I think if the reflavoring of the pact I selected is okay, the character will retain the same feel.
Reserving the right to make changes, and open to hearing any suggestions/criticisms (so feel free to peek at the spoilers).
Name:
[ Spoiler ]
Although all spirits have a name in the sense of a True Name, or Spirit Formulae, this spirit went through most of its existence answering the calls of Magicians and dabblers in Black Magic who would seek to call forth an incarnation of human lust. These individuals were interested in many things about this spirit, but having a name with which to refer to it was not one of them.
With those who called it frequently, the spirit began to develop relationships. Sometimes the conjurer determined the name it used to refer to itself, either because the magician believed that to be the spirit's actual name, or because the magician wanted to refer to it by a specific name that held meaning to him or her. With others, the succubus used a number of names of its own design, but the most commonly used name was "Adsinistrati".
When posing as a mortal, Adsinistrati is far more likely to take a normal sounding name.
Description:
[ Spoiler ]
Unlike many spirits, Adsinistrati has been known to take many forms in the physical plane - man, woman, child, even appearing as an animal, inanimate object, or a clearly alien being. Whether in possession of angelic beauty or deformed hideousness - Adsinistrati prides itself in its ability to take whatever shape is most desirable to its consort. Its skill at masquerading as someone or something surpasses others of its kind, allowing it to mimic specific people with such skill that often the magician who conjured it forgot that it wasn't the real thing by the end of the night.
Adsinistrati appears male about as often as female. Until recently, its physical form was dictated by the desires and commands of the magician who called it forth from the shadows. Upon becoming "free," Adsinistrati found that it must now select its own physical form - but still retains the habit of selecting a form based upon the desires of those around it - or, as often as not, an androgynous form that both sexes find appealing. Almost always beautiful, Adsinistrati has a tendency to mix in otherworldly features (small horns, cloven feet, slitted pupils, etc) for a very exotic dark look, which (due to the popularity of extreme body modification) stands out much less in 2070 than it would have a few decades ago.
Occasionally, Adsinistrati has been known to take an unattractive form, but even when deformed, mutilated, or generally unremarkable, there is an artistic quality to the shape.
Personality:
[ Spoiler ]
Adsinistrati is probably not going to be nearly as upset by its "banishment" from the metaplanes as the other spirits in this campaign. Would you be particularly upset if you were banished from Hell? Sure, losing one's ability to heal sucks, and it would still want to figure out what's going on, and eventually get back "home" but there is certainly a worse fate than being stuck on earth. Adsinistrati has always been a sociable spirit, and finds metahumanity fascinating. Adsinistrati will adapt to a life on the material plane rather easily.
Adsinistrati lives up to all the stereotypes of a succubus (or incubus), but does have a few personal quirks. One being in addition to the passions of love, lust, and all of that, Adsinistrati seems drawn to the perverse - and is fascinated by the many ways in which metahumanity expresses those passions. It is also something of a mimic, and takes great pleasure in taking the form of an acutal person, masquerading as that person, and eventually drawing those close to him or her into sexual (particularly forbidden) scenarios - carefully executed, this can lead to a lot of mayhem when the actual person returns completely unaware of what had transpired.
Background:
[ Spoiler ]
Not going to go into a big long background. I imagine the majority of the spirits existence involved being conjured and/or bound by various black magic magicians... in order to participate in various rituals or rite befitting a demon and/or succubi. Something like full VR pornography for mages ... or a hooker you don't have to pay, and don't have to worry about catching anything from. During this time, Adsinistrati was able to, by way of her carnal pact, enthrall thousands of loyal mortals across the world - repeat-clients, whose addictions fed themselves as they began relying on Adsinistrati more and more often. The tables quickly turned - the summoners becoming the one owing services - and Adsinistrati used these pacts to grow more powerful.
Spirit Pact:
[ Spoiler ]
Street Magic says the GM can invent new pacts, but I just want to reflavor an existing pact. I like the way that the Drain Pact works, but want to call it "Carnal Pact" - and stipulate that it involves a sexual encounter between the two. Basically, since energy-drain is not an option for PCs, I wanted to come up with a pact that still allowed Adsinistrati to "feed" by doing succubi-like things. The addiction aspect and the ability for the spirit to cut the mortal off, both work perfectly.

Contacts [60]
[ Spoiler ]
- Group Contact C6(24)/L6 (1000+ members +6, Global +6, Magical Resources +4, Broad reaching matrix resources +2) Collection of thousands of pact-addicted mortals. Some of the most powerful and influential people from all over the world. Most practice dark magic, or have it used on their behalf, but some were sought out by Adsinistrati, on purpose. All have partaken in Adsinistrati's carnal pact enough times to have become quite addicted to it - and, after hooking them, the stakes were raised, requiring karma for further 'services'. Adsinistrati also ends the pact shortly after the "act" is undertaken - leaving her mortals jonesing for more, and severing the sympathetic links between them.
Initiation [29]
