Charming Poison. On your turn, you can secrete a
charming poison from your mouth. When you do so until
the end of your turn, any creature that comes in contact with
your saliva or that you hit with a bite attack must succeed
a Wisdom saving throw or be charmed for 10 minutes. A
charmed creature sees you as an ally and repeats the saving
throw at the end of its turn, ending the effect on a success.
(Note: The creature will see only you as an ally, not the rest
of your group.) When you deal damage to the creature, it is
no longer charmed. A creature that is no longer charmed be-
comes aware that it was charmed. The saving throw is equal
to 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma or Consti-
tution modifier. Once a creature succeeds its saving throw
or the effect ends, it becomes immune to your Charming
Poison for 24 hours.
