    Charm cast at her is wasted. Charm cast at her victims by anyone else competes with the Dance and generally loses.

    Four hunters shelter in a bothy, one of them wishes aloud for company, and four women in long green dresses come in out of the weather and ask them to dance. The dancing goes on a long time. What the hunters do not see, because the dresses are long, is the deer hooves. The one who survives is always the one who went out to see to the horses, and he comes back to find the others opened up and the women gone and the ponies screaming in the dark.

    Special Attack

    The Dance: 30 ft, save Wis Mind, fail save roll 2d6+2 psychic and the target dances, unable to take any other action, taking 2d6+2 each round from exhaustion and from her nails. Cooldown 2 rounds. Nails: slashing, melee 5 ft, +4 to hit, 2d6+3, and she opens a vein rather than a wound.

    Special Defense

    Cold Iron: any iron weapon, horseshoe or nail deals double damage and breaks the Dance on everyone the moment it touches her. Horses Know: she will not approach a horse, pony or mule and cannot be made to. A party that keeps its animals close and stands among them is never engaged at all, and this is why the man who went to the horses came back.
