Combat
When a harpy engages in battle, it prefers to use Flyby Attack
and strike with a melee weapon.
Captivating Song (Su): The most insidious ability of the harpy
is its song. When a harpy sings, all creatures (other than
harpies) within a 300-foot spread must succeed at a Will save (DC
15) or become utterly captivated. This is a sonic, mind-affecting
charm. If the save is successful, that creature cannot be
affected again by that harpy's song for one day. A
captivated victim walks toward the harpy, taking the most direct
route available. If the path leads into a dangerous area, that
creature gets a second saving throw. Captivated creatures can
take no actions other than to defend themselves. A victim within
5 feet of the harpy stands there and offers no resistance to the
monster's attacks. The effect continues for as long as the
harpy sings. A bard's countersong ability allows the
captivated creature to attempt a new Will save.
