Actions

Non-Lethal Ranged Attack - When commanded to, the Drone Swarm may take an Attack action, dealing 2d10 Lightning damage to a chosen target within 90 feet of it as a ranged weapon attack. The attack roll is 8 + the user's Proficiency Bonus + the user's Intelligence Modifier. The number of attacks is inherited from the user or operator. On a successful attack, a target cannot use its Reaction until the start of the operator's next turn.   Non-Lethal Swarm Attack - When commanded to, the drone swarm moves into a space and attacks all hostile targets inside of that space. If a target drops to 0 HP it is unconscious and stable. The drone swarm will occupy a space and deal 4d10 Lightning damage to all targets inside of its 10-foot radius. See the Drone Launcher's save DC for the challenge rating and saving throw type.   Lethal Ranged Attack - When commanded to, the Drone Swarm may take an Attack action, dealing 2d10 Lightning damage to a chosen target within 90 feet of it as a ranged weapon attack.

Each target must make a Constitution saving throw against the operator's Drone Launcher DC. On a failed save, a target is stunned until the end of your next turn. On a successful save, a target is not stunned. The Drone Swarm that executed this command must then return to the launcher.   Target Lock - The drone swarm provides targeting assists against a chosen target, granting Advantage on attack rolls to the user and their allies until the start of the user's next turn.

Reactions

Defend - The drone swarm moves to intercept and receive an attack instead of you or one of your allies until the start of the operator's next turn as its Reaction. It has up to 90 feet of movement to intercept.

A medium-sized swarm of tiny drones operated by the Tau Nui Drone Launcher, Model H-106. Each drone utilizes a swarm intelligence system that allows it to act as one unit, enabling it to fit through tiny spaces or evade attacks.
