Swan Maiden

CR 6.00 Fey CG Medium
This tall, regal woman is clad in a long cloak of pristine white swan feathers and silvery armor with a winged helm.

Swan maidens are fey shapechangers who vow to protect unspoiled wilds from the encroachment of civilization or evil. They live in small flocks along secluded lakeshores. Because stealing a swan maiden's cloak robs her of her shapechanging ability, most maidens avoid humanoids and take up armor and weapons to defend themselves.
