Legendary Actions

Otrera can take 3 legendary actions, choosing from the options below. Only one legendary action can be used at a time and only at the end of another creature’s turn. Otrera regains spent legendary actions at the start of her turn.

  • Amazonian Battle Cry. She lets out a fierce battle cry, granting herself and all friendly creatures within 60 feet advantage on their next attack roll.
  • Amazonian Tactic. She shouts tactical instructions to her summoned Amazon warriors, allowing them to use their reaction to make an opportunity attack against a creature that moves more than 10 feet within their reach.
  • Divine Inspiration (Costs 2 Actions). She calls upon the divine favor of Artemis, granting herself or a friendly creature within 60 feet advantage on a saving throw or ability check.

Lair Actions

On initiative count 20 (losing initiative ties), Otrera can take a lair action to cause one of the following effects:

  • A rain of flaming arrows rains down in a 60-foot radius centered on a point she can see within 120 feet. Each creature in that area must make a DC 19 Dexterity saving throw, taking 55 (10d10) fire damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
  • The ground trembles, causing the battlefield to become difficult terrain for non-Amazons. Otrera and her summoned Amazon warriors are unaffected by this effect.

Reactions

Defensive Maneuver. When a creature makes a melee attack against Otrera and misses, she can use her reaction to move up to half her speed without provoking opportunity attacks.

Legendary Resistance, Lair Actions, and Reactions are adapted from D&D 5th Edition rules. All other abilities and actions are tailored to Otrera’s mythological background as the Queen of the Amazons and her divine connection to Ares and Artemis.

Currently in the World

Otrera stands with an air of regal grace, a formidable figure adorned in the attire of a warrior queen. Her tall, athletic stature exudes strength and confidence, a testament to the many battles she has led. Her olive skin bears the faint traces of old scars, earned through her fearless exploits in combat. Radiant, piercing eyes, the color of deep sapphires, hold an unwavering determination and wisdom that only a leader of her caliber could possess. Her dark hair cascades down her back in untamed waves, hinting at her wild and untamed spirit.

Currently, Otrera finds herself in the midst of the grand and awe-inspiring Temple of Artemis in Ephesus, surrounded by the devoted Amazons she leads. The temple’s ancient pillars and intricate carvings echo the grandeur of her divine purpose. She wears a ceremonial armor adorned with symbols of war and victory, embodying her role as the revered founder and queen of the Amazons.

In the temple’s sacred halls, Otrera’s mood is solemn and contemplative. The weight of her responsibilities as a leader and a protector weighs heavily upon her shoulders, but she knows that she must remain resolute in her dedication to her people and the worship of Ares. Her mind is ever focused on the safety and prosperity of the Amazon nation and the harmony of their alliance with the god of war.

As Otrera gazes at the image of Artemis before her, a sense of reverence fills her heart. She reflects on the ancient history of the Amazons, the battles they have fought, and the legacy they carry. Deep down, she yearns for a world where her people can thrive in peace, free from the shackles of conflict. And so, she remains steadfast in her devotion to her divine duties and to the dream of creating a sanctuary where the Amazons can flourish under the protection of the gods.
