Shared Resonance
When within 30 ft. of another Choirbound or Bloomed Choir member, the Choirbound gains advantage on Wisdom and Charisma saving throws, and cannot be surprised.
Echo Channel (Recharge 5–6)
The Choirbound becomes a living conduit for the Bloomed Choir.
All creatures of the Choirbound’s choice within 20 ft. must make a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or take 2d8 thunder damage and have disadvantage on their next saving throw. Allies instead gain +1d4 on their next save.
Hymn of Submission (Aura)
Any creature who starts its turn within 10 ft. of the Choirbound must succeed on a DC 13 Wisdom saving throw or have disadvantage on attacks against cult members until the start of their next turn (1/round).
Multiattack
The Choirbound makes two Psychic Spike attacks.
Psychic Spike (Melee Spell Attack)
+4 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature
Hit: 8 (2d6 + 1) psychic damage
If the target is concentrating on a spell or effect, they must make a DC 13 Constitution save or lose concentration.
Description
Role:
Attendants and extensions of the Bloomed Choir. They carry out rituals, defend the sanctum, and sing the echoed voice of Veyrux, enhancing or disrupting psychic energy around them.
Belief:
“To see is to stray. To speak is to stain. I am a note. I am the silence between.”
They believe their minds and bodies are merely vessels for the Choir’s song, and that by surrendering all identity, they become instruments of divine harmony.
Fate:
Choirbound eventually merge with the Choir—their bones used as vocal resonators, or their minds absorbed into the psychic network that sings for Veyrux.
Combat Behavior
-
Choirbound operate near Choir or Midmouths, amplifying psychic effects and disrupting enemies.
-
Use Echo Channel early to soften enemy saves before bigger spells.
-
Never speak, never flee—sing until death or absorption.
-
Often found in ritual circles, amplifying spells, or delaying foes while the real threat awakens behind them.
