Special Abilities

Aura Of Droning Lullaby (Su) A wound up clockwork lullaby emits a constant buzzing hum that dulls senses. Anyone within the aura suffers a –2 penalty to ability checks and saving throws made to avoid fatigue, exhaustion, and sleep effects, and all Perception checks. All magical sleep effects used on targets within the area operate at +2 caster level, and the sleeping creatures receive +2 bonus to saving throws against nightmares and effects that would influence or manipulate their dreams, or would otherwise prevent them from getting restful sleep.

Clockwork lullabies are animate music boxes, made to help put your enemies (or your children) into deep and fitful sleep. Because of their eight mechanical legs, they are also occasionally used as apart of treatment when trying to cure people from arachnophobia, by creating a pleasant association of them with peaceful sleep.
