Cacophonic Choir. The keeper of secrets screams a sanity-shattering chorus of magical sound, all creatures within 150 feet make a DC 26 Wisdom saving throw or be enthralled by the sheer majesty of the being in front of them. Creatures enthralled by this effect are considered incapacitated but may roll a new Wisdom saving throw at the end of each of their turns, if the creature suffers damage since its last save then it makes this roll with advantage. REACTIONS Forceful Interruption. If a spell is cast within 100 ft. of the daemon it moves to the caster up to 100 ft. without provoking an opportunity attack, it then performs a level 4 Counterspell and one Razorsharp Claw action against the caster.

> Many-limbed and jewel-eyed, sensuous in movement, yet at the same time brutal and fierce, a Keeper of Secrets is the Greater Daemon of Slaanesh. It is a terrifying foe to face, delighting in exquisite pain, the caress of claw through skin and muscle, bone and organ. Its enormous razor-edged claws can tear through the thickest armour with one graceful slash while its hands crush limbs and smash through bone and sinew with horrifying ease.
