Enchanted Arrows. The aridni enchants one arrow with minor magic. The next time it hits a creature with a Pixie Bow attack before the start of its next turn, the target must succeed on a DC 14 Wisdom saving throw or suffer one of the following effects:
Confusion. The target can't take reactions and acts randomly until the end of its next turn, as if it had failed the saving throw against the confusion spell.
Fear. The target is frightened until the end of its next turn and must spend its next turn moving away from the aridni by the safest available route.
Laughter. The target falls prone and is incapacitated with laughter until the end of its next turn.
Sleep. The target falls unconscious for 1 minute. It wakes up if it takes damage or if another creature takes an action to shake it awake.
