Ascended Perikin

After perfecting your body into that of a half-peridrake, you have undergone the rite of Ascension and consumed the forbidden fruit of your species. You gain hair tendrils covered in poisonous nematocysts, pheromones capable of bewitching others, and the ability to secrete a fortifying substance while at rest.

Ability Score Increase. Increase your Dexterity, Constitution, or Charisma score by 1, to a maximum of 20.

Nematocysts. When a creature makes a melee attack roll against you, you can use a reaction to lash out with your hair tendrils. The creature must make a Dexterity saving throw with a save DC equal to 8 + your Dexterity modifier + your proficiency bonus, becoming poisoned on a failed save. If the creature fails this saving throw by 5 or more, it is also paralyzed. A creature may repeat this save every round to end these conditions on itself early.

Pheromone Cloud. You exude an aura of bewitching pheromones around yourself, allowing you to subtly influence anyone who comes within 10 feet of you. You can add 1d4 to any Charisma ability check or Wisdom (Animal Handling) ability check you make. This effect does not work on Constructs or Undead.

Fortifying Secretions. Once per short or long rest, you can secrete a syrupy liquid that nourishes and fortifies whoever drinks it. After finishing this short or long rest, you and and a number of party members up to your proficiency bonus can gain a number of temporary hit points equal to your character level.
