Azreth's parents

Azreth's parents are secondary characters in Succubus Puttel, being the mother and father of the main character Azreth. Though they are dead by the beginning of the game's story, they have an important influence on events.

Appearance
The parents are only portrayed through generic sprites, lacking artwork of their own. The father has grey hair and wears glasses and a dark coat. The mother has long green hair and wears a dark dress.

Personality
The parents were both dedicated to the task of finding a way to counteract succubi. The father would routinely stay up late doing research on succubi, and the mother helped him at several points. At the same time, they loved each other and their son very much. The mother would caution the father to take better care of his health. The father was willing to discard his necklace and let himself be captured by succubi in order to spare his son.

History
Azreth's father was a researcher of succubi who wanted to study these beings in order to protect humans from them. However, he and his wife were ostracized by their home village, forcing them to live in a house on the outskirts of the village.

While the mother was pregnant with Azreth, the couple talked about succubi, noting that they were currently a minor threat but would become more dangerous in the future. They also talked about their son, eventually coming up with his name.

By the time of Azreth's childhood, succubi were indeed a bigger threat to humans, but by this time the father had created a countermeasure: a necklace with the power to weaken succubi. He planned to eventually mass-produce such necklaces. He also thought to himself that succubi wouldn't be attacking humans as they were currently doing unless they had a leader.

Some time later, the mother was with Azreth outside the house. The father approached and asked the mother for help with the anti-succubus necklace. The mother agreed and they were about to go inside, only to spot a puppy in front of the house. This puppy was adopted into the family and Azreth enjoyed playing with it.

Eventually, the father acquired the materials needed for mass-production of the necklace. He approached his house, only to hear his wife scream. He rushed in to find that succubi inside, who teleported the mother away. The father rushed over to Azreth and ordered the succubi to stay away from him. One of the succubi proposed a deal: they would let Azreth go in exchange for the father giving up and destroying the necklace. The father agreed, apologizing to his son.

The parents were brought to the succubus queen, Bosewicht, who killed them.

Legacy
After the parents' death, their son set up a pair of graves next to their house. He was approached by Ella (one of the succubi who'd kidnapped the parents), who became the boy's adoptive older sister. Later, Azreth has the option of recreating the anti-succubus necklace, which is necessary for him to reconcile with Ella and defeat Bosewicht, thus avenging his parents.

On a meta level, the two parents appear to be the inspirations for Reto's parents in the following game, Succubus in Wonderland. These two sets of parents are in a sense complete opposites, as Reto's parents are researchers of mundane animals (rather than supernatural succubi) and are well-respected by their village.
