Before Combat She observes intruders from the pool while in fish form to discern their intent. Then she reverts to her natural form to drink her potion of resist energy before swimming to the water's surface to speak with them. A Sense Motive check (DC 22) detects the nixie stalling for time during the conversation—she waits only long enough for the next obscuring mist from the wardstones before attacking (see Hazard).
During Combat She knows the pool well enough to time the waves of mist to her advantage. On any round while her vision remains unimpeded, she keeps her distance, rising from the water to shoot opponents with her bow and making sure to use her Deadly Aim feat and bleeding attack ability if possible, selectively targeting spellcasters with sleep arrows. During rounds with the obscuring mist in place, She uses her lure ability instead, drawing victims into the pool and the waiting vortex of her elemental ally. She uses sneak attack underwater on anyone left in the pool.
Morale As the final guardian of the wardstones, she fights to the death, only temporarily retreating to drink her potion of cure moderate wounds before resuming the attack.

She has the aquatic subtype, but she can survive indefinitely on land.

Change Shape

She can change shape into any small or medium aquatic creature as the spell beast shape I.

Lure (Su)

This ability functions just like a harpy’s captivating song. A DC 16 Will save negates this effect. The save DC is Charisma-based.

Bleeding Attack (3)

In addition to sneak attack damage, she also deals 3 bleed damage per sneak attack.
