Vellynne Harpell

Vellynne wears bracers of defense and carries a wand of magic missiles (see "Actions" below).

Melee Spell Attack Roll: +6 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 10 (3d6) necrotic damage, and Vellynne regains hit points equal to half the necrotic damage dealt. If Vellynne casts this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the necrotic damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 3rd.

Ranged Spell Attack Roll: +6 to hit, range 120 ft., one creature. Hit: 9 (2d8) necrotic damage, and the target can't regain hit points until the start of Vellynne's next turn.

While holding this wand, Vellynne can expend 1 or more of its 7 charges to cast the magic missile spell from it. She can expend 1 charge to cast the 1st-level version of the spell. She can increase the spell slot level by one for each additional charge she expends. The wand regains 1d6 + 1 expended charges daily at dawn. If the wand's last charge is expended, roll a d20; on a 1, the wand crumbles into ashes and is destroyed.
