Noble prodigies trace their lineage to a legendary hero, a demigod, a dragon, or some other ancestor that grants them magical prowess. Among some nobles, the source of a prodigy's magic might be a family secret.
Nobles encompass a variety of people with social influence. They might be rulers, wealthy merchants, callous bureaucrats, or the idle elite.
Multiattack. The noble makes three Beguiling Strike attacks.
Beguiling Strike. Melee or Ranged Attack Roll: +8, reach 5 ft. or range 60 ft. Hit: 18 (4d6 + 4) Psychic damage, and the target has the Charmed condition until the start of the noble’s next turn.
