What is the word for someone who is susceptibility to flattery?

I can't think of it. Not naive, or placable, or gullible.... Do you know the word I might be thinking of?

    No one is more susceptible to flattery than a narcissist.

    I don't think there's a specific word for that so let's go with your invention "placable."

    The word you are actually using - but susceptible, not susceptibiliity - is the most appropriate for that meaning.
