Description
They prefer to lure in those of the opposite sex -- their voice acts as a lure at a range of up to 36" (save versus charm while audible -- those who make their save don't notice the song at all).
The sirens can make potions to cause sleep or forgetfulness. They look like nymphs. They like to mate with humans, then drown them (after a child is born if the victim is female). If no child is born after a year or so, the sirens will get bored with their victims and drown them anyway.
