Lothar

Lothar can mimic simple sounds he has heard, such as a person whispering, a baby crying, or an animal chittering. A creature that hears the sounds can tell they are imitations with a successful DC 15 Wisdom (Insight) check.

Lothar casts one of the following spells, requiring no material components and using Charisma as the spellcasting ability (spell save DC 12, +4 to hit with spell attacks):

At will: blade ward, eldritch blast, message

1/day each: bane, charm person, daylight, faerie fire, fear, misty step, plane shift

Lothar makes three Greataxe attacks.

Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 10 (1d12 + 4) slashing damage, 14 (1d12 + 8) while in a rage.

Melee Weapon Attack: +8 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 1 piercing damage in raven form, or 6 (1d4 + 4) piercing damage in hybrid form. If the target is Humanoid, it must succeed on a DC 15 Constitution saving throw or be cursed with wereraven lycanthropy.

Lothar can use his action to polymorph into a raven-humanoid hybrid, or into a Small raven, or back into his true form, which is Humanoid. His statistics, other than his size, are the same in each form. Any equipment he is wearing or carrying isn't transformed. Lothar reverts to his true form if he dies.

Lothar rages for 1 minute. During his rage he has advantage on Strength checks and Strength saving throws. He gains a +4 bonus to damage while he is in a rage. He has resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage while in a rage. Lothar can't cast spells while in a rage.
