Eagle-Eyed. Lyska ignores half and three quarters cover when making ranged attacks.
Mastercrafts. Lyska's attacks count as magical for the purposes of overcoming resistances and immunities.
Evasion. If Lyska is subjected to an effect that allows her to make a Dexterity saving throw to take only half damage, the commander instead takes no damage if she succeeds on the saving throw and only half damage if she fails, provided the commander isn’t incapacitated.
Slippery. The commander has advantage on any saving throw made to end or avoid any spell of 4th level or lower or other magical affect that attempts to interfere with her movement such as the slow spell. Lyska is immune to difficult terrain.
Fey Ancestry. Lyska has advantage on saving throws made to avoid or end the charmed condition. Magic cannot put her to sleep.

Poison Mist (Recharge 5-6). The commander launches a vial of poison at a point she can see within 120 ft. of herself. The vial shatters causing the poison to vaporize upon contact with the air. Any creature that needs to breath within 20 ft. of that point must make a DC 17 Constitution saving throw. A creature that fails takes 32 (9D6) poison damage and becomes poisoned for one minute. A creature that succeeds on the saving throw takes half damage and is not poisoned. A poisoned creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the condition on a success.
Spellcasting. The commander casts one of the following spells, using Wisdom as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 17):

Description
Raised by a hunter and woodsman, Lyska inherited her fathers resourcefulness and sharp eye. As it turns out she is also a gifted alchemist. When the Great Raid began Lyska was barely a woman but she put her talents to good use. Over time Lyska gathered to her banner individuals with similar talents and now she leads one of the world's most effective bands of brigands, scouts, and assassins.
Lyska travels with a trained falcon. Though it isn't magic it follows her orders in a manner similar to the [spell[Find Familiar[/spell] spell. A small canister attached to its back allows it to deliver short written messages for her in a manner similar to an animal messenger. If the falcon dies it takes the general a full year to mourn and train a replacement.
The Swiftclaw Band. While she doesn't command the largest assortment of troops amidst the warlords, Lyska's forces make up for their relatively low numbers through speed, stealth, and, precision. As part of swearing fealty the future king has promised Lyska mastery of the royal scouts and skirmishers.
Roleplaying Notes
Alignment. Neutral Evil
Personality. Above all a war leader must be ruthlessly pragmatic. Honor and kindness never saved anyone from the business end of a blade.
Bond. Hurt my falcon and I'll rip your throat out with my teeth.
Flaw. I miss father. I hope he's proud of me, wherever he is now.
While she has a spell list in mechanical terms, Lyska is not really a magician. Instead, try to flavor her magic as advanced survival tricks or sophisticated alchemy.
