The target must make a DC 18 Will save or become captivated by the Kelpie, thinking it is a desirable person in mortal danger. A creature under the effects of this ability moves toward the Kelpie using the most direct means available. If the path leads it into a dangerous area such as through fire or off a cliff, that creature receives a second saving throw to end the effect before moving into peril. The one exception is that a creature does not consider water a dangerous area and will enter the water even if it cannot swim or breathe in water. A creature thus captivated can take no actions other than to move towards the Kelpie and defend itself, even if it is drowning. A captivated creature within 5 feet of the Kelpie simply stands and offers no resistance to the Kelpie&#8217;s attacks. This effect continues as long as the Kelpie is alive, and the captivated creature is within 1 mile of the Kelpie. This has the psychic and supernatural tags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Actions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><em>Slam.<\/em><\/strong> Melee Strike +7\/+2\/-3 (unarmed) 4d6+2 bludgeoning damage and inflict the Grabbed condition (DC 18).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A beautiful human female with long flowing dark hair, emerald eyes, and milky-white skin sits nearby.
