Homebrew Enthraller Species Details
Enthrallers are creatures that sometimes are mistaken to just be black cobra-headed yuan-ti. In truth, they are a group of seeming humanoids that, like the elan, are actually aberrations in disguise. Their skin is a glossy black, with scales smooth to the touch. Their body is largely humanoid, and they have clawed feet and hands. Their heads are very serpentine and can unfold to reveal the cobra hood. Notably, their eyes are normally dark and black like pebbles. But when they work their enthralling effect, those orbs become luminescent kaleidoscopes of colors that hypnotize and hold other creatures in a thrall.
