#### Abilities
Fey Ancestry. Felurian is immune to being charmed and magic can't put them to sleep.
Innate Spellcasting. Felurian's spellcasting ability is Charisma (spell save DC 16). Felurian can innately cast the following spells, requiring no components:
At will: Light, prestidigitation
3/day each: Charm person, entangle, faerie fire
1/day each: Plane shift, polymorph
Magic Resistance. Felurian has advantage on saving throws against spells and magical effects.
Legendary Resistance (3/Day). If Felurian fails a saving throw, she can choose to succeed instead.
#### Actions
Multiattack. Felurian makes two attacks with her touch.
Lovely Touch. Melee Spell Attack: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 14 (3d8) psychic damage, and the target must succeed on a DC 16 Wisdom saving throw or be charmed until the end of its next turn.
Glamorous Laughter (Recharge 5-6). Felurian speaks a word of pure glamour. Each creature within 30 feet that can hear her must make a DC 16 Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 22 (5d8) psychic damage and is stunned until the end of its next turn. On a successful save, it takes half damage and isn't stunned.
#### Tactics
Felurian prefers deception and seduction over combat. She rarely fights to kill; instead, she toys with opponents, attempting to charm or seduce them. If seriously threatened, she retreats to the Fae realm.
#### Special Notes
- Felurian cannot be harmed by normal weapons (iron works as with most Fae)
- She can see through glamours and illusions
- She operates according to Fae logic, not human morality
- She makes bargains; players can negotiate with her (at great cost)
