|action4=Luring Song
|alimit4=
|adesc4={{SRD5trait}} The harpy sings a magical melody. Every humanoid and {{srd5lc|Giant}} within 300 feet of the harpy that can hear the song must succeed on a {{SRD5|DC}} 14 {{SRD5|Wisdom}} {{srd5lc|Saving Throw}} or be {{srd5lc|Charmed}} until the song ends. The harpy must take a {{srd5lc|Bonus Action}} on its subsequent {{srd5lc|Turn}}s to continue singing. It can stop singing at any time. The song ends if the harpy is {{srd5lc|Incapacitated}}. 

While charmed by the harpy, a target is {{srd5lc|Incapacitated}} and ignores the songs of other harpies. If the charmed target is more than 5 feet away from the harpy, the target must {{srd5lc|Movement|move}} on its {{srd5lc|Turn}} toward the harpy by the most direct route, trying to get within 5 feet. It doesn’t avoid {{srd5lc|Opportunity Attack}}s, but before moving into {{srd5lc|Damaging Terrain}}, such as lava or a pit, and whenever it takes damage from a source other than the harpy, the target can repeat the saving throw. A charmed target can also repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns. If the saving throw is successful, the effect ends on it. 

A target that successfully saves is {{srd5lc|Immune}} to this harpy’s song for the next 24 hours.
