[QUOTE="Cleon, post: 5395125, member: 57383"] I roughed out an outline for the Evil Monkey sitting on the train yesterday. Now should I write it up... The song! Something like: [B]Calming Song (Su):[/B] A cariad ysbryd constantly sings a calming melody as a free action. This song affects all creatures within X ft. of the cariad ysbryd like the [I]calm emotions[/I] spell (DC Y Will save negates, effective CL equals the cariad ysbryd's Hit Dice). This special attack is a sonic, mind-affecting compulsion. The save DC is Charisma-based. As for the harming/healing song, I'm thinking it should be especially potent against Banshees. How's this: [B]Song of Power (Su):[/B] Once per day, as a standard action, a cariad ysbryd can sing a song of great power. She can sing one of two tunes, chosen at the time of singing. [I]Tune of Wrath:[/I] All Undead and creatures with the Evil subtype within 30 ft. of the cariad ysbryd take X damage (DC X Fort save for half damage). A banshee affected by a cariad ysbryd's tune of wrath takes 3d6 damage if it succeeds at the Fort save and is destroyed if it fails. [I]Tune of Balm:[/I] All living creatures within 30 ft. of the cariad ysbryd are affected as by a combination of the [I]heal[/I], [I]remove fear[/I] and [I]neutralize poison[/I] spells. [/QUOTE]
