In Dungeons & Dragons, a River Siren is a mythical creature that typically inhabits freshwater environments, such as rivers, lakes, and marshes. Often mistaken for harmless or even beautiful beings, River Sirens are dangerous predators known for their ability to lure creatures into dangerous waters using their enchanting songs. These songs have magical properties that can compel creatures to approach the siren, sometimes leading them to their doom by drowning or falling prey to the siren's other abilities.

A River Siren is often depicted with humanoid features, including a captivating, alluring appearance and a voice that echoes with a haunting melody. They can blend into their surroundings, making them difficult to detect until it’s too late. Their appearance may vary depending on the region or the specific narrative, but they are generally seen as alluring and treacherous figures.

Combat with a River Siren usually involves resisting their captivating charm and avoiding their deadly allure. They are known for their ability to manipulate water, creating whirlpools or using water to their advantage in battle. In some cases, a River Siren can control aquatic creatures or create illusions to confuse their enemies. Their song is often the centerpiece of their danger, as it can bewitch and drown those who cannot resist its pull.

Despite their predatory nature, River Sirens are sometimes portrayed as tragic figures in folklore, with some believing they are cursed or bound to the waters by an ancient magic. In certain campaigns, players may encounter a River Siren whose motives are more complex, allowing them to either defeat the creature or even seek a peaceful resolution.
