Traits

Fey Ancestry. Brahma has advantage on saving throws against being charmed, and magic can't put her to sleep.

Taunt (2/Day). Brahma can use a bonus action to target one creature she can see within 30 feet of her. If the target can hear Brahma, it must succeed on a DC 13 Charisma saving throw or have disadvantage on ability checks, attack rolls, and saving throws until the start of Brahma's next turn.

Spellcasting

Spellcasting. Brahma is a 4th-level spellcaster. Her spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 13, +5 to hit with spell attacks). She has the following bard spells prepared:

Cantrips (at will): mage hand, message, vicious mockery

1st level (4 slots): charm person, heroism, illusory script, sleep, unseen servant

2nd level (3 slots): cloud of daggers, invisibility

Actions

War Lute. Melee Weapon Attack: +4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit:5 (1d6 + 2) slashing damage.

Song of Domination (3/Day). Brahma targets one creature that can see or hear her, which must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or be charmed by her for 1 minute. The target can repeat the save at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. It has disadvantage on these saves if being charmed by Brahma is something the target openly or secretly desires. For 1 hour after the charm effect ends, the target has disadvantage on Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma checks made as part of a contest with Brahma.

Lore

Formally a former member of the "B" Team, Brahma Lutier is a gifted cartographer, spy, and troubadour. Tutored in at least the latter of those vocations by Audra Courtier (wife of Propha Dran and co-owner of the Dran & Courtier inn of Red Larch), Brahma's specialty is a song of domination that is legendarily difficult to resist.
