SPECIAL TRAITS

• Flyby. The humming blossom doesn’t provoke opportunity attacks when it flies out of an enemy’s reach.
• Keen Hearing and Sight. The humming blossom has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on hearing or sight.
• False Appearance. While the humming blossom remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from a normal flower.
• Mask of the Fey Wild. The humming blossom can attempt to hide even when it is only lightly obscured by foliage, heavy rain, falling snow, mist, and other natural phenomena.

ACTIONS

• Beak. Melee Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (2d6 + 1) piercing damage.
• Paralyzing Sap (Recharges atier a Short or Long Rest). The humming blossom can spit sticky sap at a creature within 10 feet. The target must succeed on a DC 10 Constitution saving throw or be paralyzed until the end of its next turn.
• Tending Sap (Recharges atier a Short or Long Rest). The humming blossom may repair a single break or tear in a plant it touches, such as a broken branch, two halves of a cut stem, torn bark, or a fallen leaf. As long as the break or tear is no larger than 1 foot in any dimension, the humming blossom can mend it, leaving no trace of the former damage. This effect can physically repair a magic item or plant creature, restoring 2d6 hit points, but can’t restore magic to such an object.

ABOUT

Humming blossoms, also known as birds of paradise, are healers and guardians to all plant life. Though their natural gifts are well known among fey, humming blossoms are more highly regarded by others for their magnificent appearance. The feathers of these fey resemble the brilliant colored petals of a flower in sight, touch, and smell, and epitomize the beauty of nature, retaining their luster indefinitely after falling from a humming blossom’s wing.

Clotting Sap. As healers of nature, humming blossoms produce a sticky sap-like substance which they can apply to broken plants, mending their wounds. Besides its healing properties, a humming blossom’s sap is also highly adhesive and is used by the tiny fey to restrain hostile invaders while the humming blossom makes its escape or warns nearby creatures of the trapped enemy.
