Actions
Multiattack. The harpy makes two with its claws.
Claw. Melee Attack Roll: +3, reach 5 ft, one target. Hit: 6 (2d4 + 1) slashing damage.
Luring Song. The harpy sings a magical melody, which lasts until the harpy's Concentration ends on it.
- Wisdom Saving Throw: DC 11, each Humanoid & Giant in a 300-foot Emanation originating from the harpy when the song starts.
- Failure: The target has the Charmed condition until the song ends and repeats the save at the end of each of its turns. While Charmed, the target has the Incapacitated condition & ignores the Luring Song of other harpies. If the target is more than 5 feet from the harpy, the target moves on its turn toward the harpy by the most direct route, trying to get within 5 feet of the harpy. It doesn't avoid Opportunity Attacks; however, before moving into damaging terrain (such as lava or a pit) and whenever it takes damage from a source other than the harpy, the target repeats the save.
- Success: The target is immune to this harpy's Luring Song for 24 hours.
Suggested Environments
Any climate; Coastal, forest, hill, & mountain terrain
