targets up to three allies it can see within 60 feet of it. If the target

move up to half its speed. The target's next attack has advantage
until the start of the bandit lord's next turn.

Reactions

Parry and Counter. The bandit lord adds 3 to its AC against one
melee or ranged weapon attack that would hit it. To do so, it must
be able to see the attacker and be wielding a melee weapon. If the
attack misses, the bandit lord can make one melee attack against
the attacker if it is within its reach.
