Archetypical Secrets

3rd-level College of Aptitude feature

By 3rd level, you have mastered the abilities from a wide spectrum of classes. Choose two features from any classes, including this one. A feature you choose must be of a level equal to, or lower than, the level of this feature.

The chosen features count as bard features for you. If they are dependent on an ability score or class level, you can use charisma and your bard level instead. Features that are dependent on a lower level feature do not grant the effects of that lower level feature. For example, the extended aura range feature of the Paladin only increases the range of the aura and does not grant the effect of the lower level aura feature. In order to get the full effect of such a feature you would need to obtain the lower level feature through any means first.

You learn two additional features from any classes. One at 6th level and one at 14th level.
