Hands-Off. The rangale cannot be disarmed , because it does not need limbs to wield its weapons.
Innate Spellcasting. The rangale’s spellcasting ability is Wisdom (spell save DC 13). It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no components:
At Will: clairvoyance , detect magic , detect thoughts , message , telekinesis


ACTIONS

Multiattack. The rangale attacks three times.
Spear. Melee/Ranged Weapon Attack: +9 to hit; reach 15 ft. or range 20/60 ft.; one target. Hit: 10 (1d8+6) piercing damage.
Retrieving Bow. Its arrow digs deep where it strikes, then flies back to the rangale, drawing you with it. Ranged Weapon Attack: +6 to hit; range 150/600 ft.; one target. Hit: 6 (1d8+3) piercing damage. The rangale pulls the target up to 50 feet; if the creature succeeds a DC 13 Strength saving throw, the rangale can only pull the target 10 feet.


BONUS ACTIONS

Overbearing Watch. The rangale can magically mark a foe within 90 feet for one hour. Its attacks against that target deal an extra 1d6 damage, it has advantage on Wisdom checks to find it, and it can cast any of its other innate spells to target that creature from any range. If it uses this ability again, the previous mark lapses.

Description

One of the most refined fey in Risur are the rangale—human-faced elks, stags, and gazelles who have no arms but instead telekinetically control hovering spears or other weapons. More than mere warriors, they have a knack not only for moving things from afar, but also for seeing things, even knowing people’s secrets. Many serve as guards of the Unseen Court; rangales like to toy with interlopers from afar, watching them with magic, reading their thoughts, and taunting them with whispers that come from nowhere.

Rangales pride themselves on their fastidiousness. Stories emphasize that they learn all manner of gossip and secrets to leverage other fey into doing undesirable deeds for them. As the joke goes, they don’t like to get their hands dirty.

Monster Type Description

Fey are creatures that are native to Fairyland, also called the Dreaming. These creatures live in a verdant realm of heightened natural beauty and combine grace and danger. Sprites and pixies are fey.
