• Unravel: The Queen of Night and Magic ends one magical effect she can see within 60 feet of her. To do so, she must succeed on a Charisma check against a DC of 10 + the spell's level or the magical effect's DC, whichever is higher.
• Shadow Rift (Recharge 5-6): The Queen of Night and Magic creates a shadowy rift on a point she can see within 120 feet. Each creature within the 20 feet of the rift must make a DC 23 Constitution saving throw. On a failure, a creature takes 36 (8d8) cold damage and 36 (8d8) necrotic damage and is restrained by wisps of icy shadow for 1 minute. On a success, a creature takes half the damage and isn't restrained. A restrained creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
• Spellcasting: The Queen of Night and Magic casts one of the following spells, using Charisma as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 23):
  At will: command, dancing lights, darkness, mage hand, suggestion
  3/day each: confusion, fear, greater invisibility, mirror image
  1/day each: dominate monster, plane shift, power word stun

Bonus Actions

• Hidden Step: The Queen of Night and Magic magically teleports, along with any equipment she is wearing or carrying, up to 60 feet to an unoccupied space she can see and takes the Hide action.

Reactions

• Sudden Fraying: When the Queen of Night and Magic is targeted by a spell or included in a spell's area and the spell doesn't have an instantaneous duration, she can use Unravel on the spell, dispelling it after it is cast. She doesn't need to see a spell to target it with this reaction, but she must be able to see at least some portion of an area or object affected by the spell.

The Queen of Night and Magic can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action option can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature’s turn. The Queen of Night and Magic regains spent legendary actions at the start of her turn.

• Cast a Spell (Costs 2 Actions): The Queen of Night and Magic uses Spellcasting.
