Drowned Choir
Medium undead, neutral evil
On fog nights the drowned fences sing, and the old hands turn their boats toward home. The drowned choir is what the fog kept of a wrecked hymn-sing: grey singers with water in their lungs, harmonising still. Their wail hits like a wave against the pilings, and their sweet verse walks a listener off the path to join them.

Cacophonous Touch. Melee Attack Roll: +3, reach 5 ft. Hit: 11 (3d6 + 1) Thunder damage.
Wail of the Drowned (Recharge 5–6). Each creature within 30 feet that can hear the choir must succeed on a DC 13 Charisma saving throw or take 18 (4d8) Thunder damage, or half as much damage on a success.
Luring Refrain (Recharge 6). Each humanoid within 60 feet that can hear the choir must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or be charmed for 1 minute.

The target can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
