Innate Spellcasting. The baobhan sith's innate spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 12). It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components:
- At will: minor illusion, prestidigitation
- 1/day each: charm person, invisibility
Dagger. Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 3 (1d4 + 1) piercing damage.
Infectious Laughter. The baobhan sith emits a contagious laughter within 15 feet of it. Each creature in that area must succeed on a DC 12 Wisdom saving throw or fall prone, becoming incapacitated and unable to stand up for the duration. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success. The effect also ends if the creature takes any damage.
Invisibility (1/Day). The baobhan sith magically turns invisible until it attacks or casts a spell, or until its concentration ends (as if concentrating on a spell).
Description
The Vistani swear these desperate and bitter creatures are the descendants of a cursed pixie clan captured by the mists of Ravenloft for the unspeakable arts they committed in a distant land. They are cruel creatures who take their greatest pleasure from the suffering of the weak and helpless.
The baobhan sith (or black sprites) stand two feet tall and have large transparent wings like those of a cicada. They have sharp elven features with long, almost bat-like ears. Even druids have difficulty distinguishing the baobhan sith from pixies, and it is only the dull luster of their wings and their distinctive ears that identify them. They favor garish clothing and wear colorful caps.
The baobhan sith speak Common and it is believed that they may also know the languages of other sprites and woodland animals.
