College of Fortune

Gambling is a state of mind truly, as they say, a gambler always quits right before he hits it big. But what if you always hit it big and never quit?

Big Money No Whammies

At 3rd level, you can gamble using only your misfortune. You learn the Blade Ward cantrip, which doesn't count against the number of Bard cantrips you know. For you, however, it is cast using a bonus action and you must declare which damage type you will have resistance against rather than gaining all three. Luck be on your side.

Preferred Poison

At 3rd level, you employ tools that can assist in furthering your vices. You can use the following objects as a spellcasting focus for your bard spells: Dice Set and Playing Card Set.

Starting at 6th level, when you cast a bard spell that deals damage or restores hit points through the Gaming Set, roll two d6, and you gain a bonus to the damage or healing roll of the spell equal to the numbers rolled only if you get matching pairs.

Luck Be A Lady

At 3rd level, you reach out to Lady Luck and request that she shine through you. While you are holding your Preferred Poison, you can use a bonus action to expend one use of your Bardic Inspiration and roll on the Tides of Luck table using two of your Bardic Inspiration die to determine if Lady Luck shines through you in that moment. If you roll doubles of any number on the table, Lady Luck bestows her blessing upon you for two rounds ending on the end of your second turn. 

You can retain only one of these Embodiments of Lady Luck at a time.
