College of Misfortune

Misfortune bards have learned the ways of subtlety altering the luck of those around them. Though they only have control over the negative, they can force it on to their opposition to give themselves the upper hand. They are ostracized from the other colleges because of a fear that they would cause problems. Which isn’t entirely unfounded because many untrained bards of this college can use their abilities unknowingly. 

Bardic Inconvenience

Instead of inspiring your team, your music only harms those around you. You can no longer use the Bardic Inspiration feature. Instead you can musically influence your enemy's to mess up at just the right moment. To do so, you use a bonus action on your turn to choose one creature other than yourself within 60 feet of you who can hear you. That creature gains one Bardic Inconvenience die, a d6. 

Once within the next 10 minutes, when the creature rolls an ability check, attack roll, or saving throw you can choose to roll the die and subtract if from their roll. You can wait until after it rolls the d20 before deciding to use the Bardic Inconvenience die, but you must decide before the DM says whether the roll succeeds or fails. Once the Bardic Inspiration die is rolled, it is lost. A creature can have only one Bardic Inconvenience die at a time.

You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once). You regain any expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Your Bardic Inconvenience die changes when you reach certain levels in this class. The die becomes a d8 at 5th level, a d10 at 10th level, and a d12 at 15th level.

Misfortune

You can alter the luck of those around you. You can do any simple thing that causes something misfortunate to happen. This can be things like moving a chair to trip someone, making someone fumble a key out of their hand, or causing rats to chew a hole through a wine barrel. It has to be plausible in the environment and is always at the DMs digression. It takes no action to do this but it can only be done once every minute.

Hardship Enhancement

3rd-level Collage of Misfortune feature

A certain aura about you causes bad luck to be amplified. When any creature within 1 mile of you rolls a natural 1 on a d20 or totals your PB or less, roll from your 'Exceeding Failure' table using your Bardic Inconvenience die. If the natural 1 was rolled by an enemy of yours the affect from the table is applied to the creature. If it was rolled by an ally you can hold the effect and apply it to a creature you can see within a mile of you. A held effect can only be held until your next long rest. You can only hold 1 effect at a time, when you try to hold a second effect the first is lost.

(This is not affected by the next effect) All allies of the target have disadvantage on ability checks, attack rolls, and saving throws when within 15ft. of the target. This lasts for as long as the target is paralyzed.

Charm Counter

This ability replaces your Countercharm ability. 
Whenever someone casts an Enchantment spell within 30ft of you they have to succeed a charisma saving throw equal to your spell save DC.

Fates Favored

The misery your spreading seems to try and avoid you. When you roll a natural 1 on a d20, you can choose to re-roll the die, this time with advantage. You can do this once per round.

The original roll still allows you to use your 'Hardship Enhancement' feature.

You can now also hold two Spread Misfortune affects at a time.

Unlucky Start

At the beginning of combat you can make up to seven different changes using your Misfortune ability. This activates as soon as initiative is rolled and all effects are applied before turn 1 starts. These changes can be more impactful than your normal  use of Misfortune, but are always at the DMs discretion.

 

You can now also hold three Spread Misfortune affects at a time.
