Personality
Power: Mental Manipulation (Illusions), Life/energy absorption, Supernatural beauty, Enhanced senses, Wings & flight
Power Description: As a demon Cora is gifted with the beauty, grace, power, and flight capabilities as her mother Goddess - though she prefers to keep her feet to the ground. She can obtain souls through deals as well as through sexual activities if the victim is willing. As a succubi she must feed to survive and to do so she must use her beauty as well as her illusions - nit-picking the targets brain to learn what they desire most and appear as such - to lure her prey into submission so she can then obtain their life force.
Power Limits: As a lower class demon she isn't skilled in flight nor is her mental manipulation strong, but it is more powerful than a Magi and can easily overpower unskilled humans. She cannot drain or obtain the soul of another demon no matter what class nor can she use her power of illusion if she is severely injured or hungry from lack of feeding. Her victims aren't killed, but left weak and confused, thinking the encounter was just a dream.

Personality
[attr="class","appcontent2"]
A natural survivalist, Cora does nothing without purpose, initiating a motive behind every move she makes and does so with precision. Meticulous, observant, and cunning the she-demon is anything but predictable and prefers to use the element of surprise to win against an opponent. There is nothing too small or too large to be considered as payback for betraying the unforgivable demon -ranging anywhere from day to day torment, insurance fraud, or tricking them into giving up their soul- and though it is certain her temper will come you never know in what form she will unleash it or when. Even in the midst of her wrath, in her judgement Cora is known to be fair, but with everything she gives she expects something equal in value or better in return. Even with those closest to her Cora never makes a deal if there is nothing for her to gain or if she doesn't believe to have anything to offer, though her loyalty to the rare few who do gain her trust makes it possible to sway the she-demon into playing nice.
Because of her occupation Cora is extremely discreet in everything she does, implementing it into her personal life as well. Not even her partner in crime Ivy is completely aware of all her plans and goals. This is the ending result of a deep seeded paranoia brought on by a traumatic event in her life and if placed into a compromising position can easily become consumed by her fears and will ultimately take the flight response. When it comes down to it the only one that matters is herself and though she may regret it at one point in her life, she just never seemed to develop that pesky human trait called a guilty conscious to weigh her down. In social situations Cora comes off as charming and when in the presense of friends is percieved as laid back, but with a regal demeanor she isn't always the most approachable. Even with all the time in the world Cora doesn't take kindly to people wasting her time but on occasion is caught enjoying the company of others similar to her.

History
[attr="class","appcontent2"]As far as Demons go Cora is quite young but with her mature, regal like approach you wouldn't suspect it from her. Through out her younger years she spent all of her time among the humans, learning from them while using this knowledge to manipulate them to survive. Early on Cora was a natural born survivalist and knew from the start that the only person she could truly rely on was herself. Born in the mortal realm she never truly experienced the other world her parents had originated from nor did she care, finding plenty of sustenance on this plane and never took the time to consider what the demon realm was like. Because of her preference to remain neutral and lower status in the demon hierarchy she was often over looked by the higher class demons and because of this has managed to dip her fingers into a bit of everything, unnoticed.
During her time on this earth she has taken many forms. Some of which more famous than others. All have met 'untimely' deaths because of her interference but unknown to the men casting the final blow their efforts would prove fruitless when realizing she was more than just a woman. The lucky few to survive her wrath don't last long, having either been committed to the asylum or taking their own life just to stop the torment. No one but Cora knows what really happens to those that try to kill her but the ending result has so far always been in her favor.
Surprisingly one man could lay claim to coming close to bringing the she-demon down and walk away to tell the tale unscathed, but before he could finish her off she managed to escape with just a shred of dignity left and the scars to remind her of her stupidity. It would be the first, and last, time Cora would ever fall in love and since then she now lives in fear of what awaits her around every corner and has revolved her entire life and career to self preservation.
Since her close encounter with death Cora has invested her time and money into obtaining rare items and priceless Angelic and Demonic artifacts in order to learn anything she may need to know about her origin or the weapons designed to kill her. From time to time she also acquires the occasional soul for her own personal gain. With time she has also come to appreciate the price most people would pay for such items and values being the only person with the ability to acquire some of the worlds most treasured, and secretive, artifacts long lost to man. There is nothing Cora wont obtain, spiritual or human, as long as it has a hefty price or asset most sought out for.
