Sirines, beautiful human-like females, are equally at home above || <Come>
|| beneath salt || fresh waters.
Normally, but a single sirine will be encountered.
All encounters will be in lonely, uninhabited places.

The armor class of a sirine is 3 because of the high [dexterity] of the race (18)
and their magical nature. They usually will carry small (short) <l>
swords and daggers, although 30% will have 3 javelins (40%) or a sling (60%) as well. l
There is a base 10% chance that any weapon will be magic +1 or [javelin of lightning];
each should be checked for this possibility.

Sirines have the following magical powers:
song, which will charm person at 3" range all subject creatures of hostile nature within hearing
suggestion; polymorph self; [fog cloud]; and [improved invisibility]. Each is usable once
per day, 1 at a time, at will. Additionally, any intelligent
creature touched in melee by a sirine must save vs. poison or become an
idiot (intelligence=2). The idiocy so caused can be removed at will but
requires a touch from the sirine. Otherwise, [dispel magic] may be used to
bring back the intelligence. Sirines are immune to all forms of gas.

All of their saves are made as if they were 11th-level magic-users
with a +2 bonus vs. poison. If more than 1 sirine is encountered
(30%) chance it <(trans?)> will always be in the sirine's home AREA.
A single sirine
will always be of 6 or 7 HD,
with equal chances for 4, 5, 6, or 7 hit dice otherwise.
Alignment of a group of sirines will always be the same with respect to
good, evil, and absolute neutral alignment. In a group of evil sirines, for
example, there can be lawful, neutral, and chaotic members.

Sirines breathe air or water with equal facility.
They have infra- and <l>
ultravisual capacity. They speak their own language and Common. <l> <noted at DMG>
