Mayhay uses her rudimentary medical knowledge to check over Uloa and her friends, checking to see if they are injured...but also looking for weak points in case they turn hostile.
You do not know anything more about these creatures.
Uloa presents you with a gift—a simple headband made of soft, silvery metal, which matches the one they’re currently wearing. The headband’s construction is simple and malleable enough that you can tell they were made by a particularly clever creature.

Increase the damage by 1 at 5th, 10th, 15th, and 20th levels.
