Wellspring Song (Su) As a standard action, a wellspring wisp can emit an eerie hum to enthrall other creatures. Non-wisps within 60 feet who can hear the peculiar humming must succeed at a DC 15 Will save or be fascinated for as long as they're able to hear the sound.

Description Wellspring wisps are formed from the wellspring energy seeping up from the fissures in Genrovis's earth. They aren't only birthed from wellsprings, but depend on the energy they contain for sustenance. A wellspring wisp that strays too far from its fissure risks dwindling away to nothing. Though not terribly intelligent, wellspring wisps are sapient and often cause trouble for crews tapping the fissures, luring the unwary into often treacherous territory. Though their antics can be dangerous, they seem to be most interested in helping other creatures explore their wellspring homes. Wellspring wisps appear as a small, indistinct orb of white light. Even when not using their song, they emit a pleasant-sounding hum. There are rumors of larger wellspring wisps existing below Genrovis's crust, but such tales are so far unsubstantiated.
