These have turned out as a bit glass-cannon, although as a flying ranged attacker they are a bit nasty. I have purposefully deceased the size from the MM entry, as them being large bee people is not very cool imho. Also stripped of their ability to cast sleep, which I will reserve for Drones for a bit more variety.

Flyby. The Abeil Soldier doesn’t provoke an opportunity attack when it flies out of an enemy’s reach.
Hive Mind. While an Abeil Queen is within 25 miles of an Abiel Soldier, the Abeil solider has advantage on saving throws against being charmed or frightened.
Actions
Multiattack. The Abeil Soldier makes two attacks: one with its Glaive and one with its sting or two with its longbow.
Glaive. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 10 ft., one target. Hit: 8 (1d10 + 3) slashing damage.
Sting. Melee Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one creature. Hit: 8 (1d10 + 3) piercing damage, and the target must make a DC 12 Constitution saving throw, taking 22 (4d10) poison damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Longbow. Ranged Weapon Attack: +3 to hit, range 150/600 ft., one target. Hit: 5 (1d8 + 1) piercing damage.
Stormwing (Recharge 6). The Abeil creates a 40 foot radius sonic burst extending all around it. Each creature that is not an Abeil in that area must make a DC 12 Constitution saving throw, taking 21 (6d6) Thunder damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.
Abeils are an imperialistic an expansionist race of bee-people. Soldier Abeils are the army of the Hive's Queen, and are larger then their kin.
