Traits

Crone sight: Baba Jaga has advantage on Wis (Perception checks) that rely on sight. As an action, she can observe a target and magically know its current emotional state. If the target fails a DC 18 Charisma saving throw, she also knows the creature`s alignment and discovers a hidden secret about the target. 

Cronespeech:  Creatures with Intelligence 6 or lower obey Baba Jaga unquestioningly. Her utterances are often captured as engravings on nearby stone and wood surfaces. These magical reproductions of her words are made in Common tongue and fade after several days.

Young men see Baba Jaga as a young maiden who lures them into her house with the promise of Song and a well cooked meal. Young men who talk to her may be made to make a Charisma Saving throw at Disadvantage or become charmed by her and obey her without question.

Anyone who sees her but is not charmed by her may make a DC 16 insight check. Passing the check will allow the individual to know that the form Baba Jaga takes is altered but do not know how because it is not done through illusion.

Ritual casting: Baba Jaga Is casting a ritual and is weakened. 

Legendary resistance (2/day) If Baba Jaga Fails a saving throw, she can choose to succeed instead. 

Mortar and Pestle: as an action Baba Jaga can summon her Mortar and pestle. Baba Jaga flies in a large mortar and pestle which is immune to damage and can`t be the target of spells or effects. It Provides the witch with Half cover from Ranged attacks. Baba Jaga doesn`t provoke an opportunity attack when she flies out of an enemy`s reach. If Baba Jaga is knocked prone, or incapacitated while flying in the mortar, It will gently set her on the ground and disappear for 1 hour or until Baba Jaga calls it back. The pestle remains with the witch. 

Wrath of the pestle: The pestle comes with 4 charges which can be used when Baba Jaga hits her target with it. By expending a charge she may apply an additional 1d6 force damage to attacks made with the pestle. Baba Jaga can expend no more then 2 charges per attack made with the pestle.

Magical resistance: Baba Jaga has advantage on saving throws against spells and other magical effects. If Baba Jaga were to take Damage from a spell, she only takes half that damage.

At will: Eldritch blasts (4 beams), message, minor illusion, Mind sliver.

Breath of the Enchantress (Recharge 6): Calling on her elemental powers and her mastery of crone-magic, Baba Jaga exhales a great wind in a 40-foot cone that smells of lilacs and gooseberries. Creatures caught in the area must make a DC 17 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save the target takes 20(5d8) Poison damage and is affected by a spell similar to Dominate Person  for 1 min. A creature can end this effect early when they take damage  or by remaking the save at the end of their turn. on a success, a target takes half the poison damage but are not charmed.

Description

Baba Jaga is a crone of both fortune and misfortune. Her personality can shift on a whim and should be approached cautiously. Someone who approaches her with good intentions and seeks guidance may be granted her favor when done correctly. Approaching her with ill intent, and due respect may cause her to lash out and become dangerous. Additionally if to many questions or the wrong questions are asked of her she may again lash out in violence. Despite this it is easy to appease the crone with gifts she finds to be extravagant.  

She takes on the typical appearance of an old hag riding a Mortar and Pestle, but may also take on the appearance of a more kind older woman depending on her mood. To lure young men in she may take on the appearance of a younger maiden in an attempt to get them to trust her. 

Baba Jaga, Is also known as Baba Yaga and is the middle sister. Baba Jaga refers to herself as the prettier sister of the three, and is more known to stay within the Fey wilds only traveling to other planes to gather fresh young men to tend to her gardens and steal away their ability to love. Once she is done with a man, she releases them back to their people, drained and exhausted, cursed to have a future deprived of love.
