College of Destiny

Bards of the College of Destiny are attuned to the music of the universe, allowing them to manipulate reality through their songs. Often found among great heroes and groups of adventurers, these Bards revel in the chance to tell epic stories and as such can make their allies' actions change to fit their story.

Oracle of Destiny

When you join this college at 3rd level, your understanding of destiny allows you to see both weal and woe in your allies’ futures. When you complete a long rest, you can expend up to your maximum number of Bardic Inspiration dice and choose a creature for each dice spent. Each creature rolls a d20 and records the number rolled, this number becomes the creature’s Destiny Roll. Before the creature rolls an ability check, attack roll, or saving throw, it can choose to use its Destiny Roll, instead of rolling, applying any bonuses to the Destiny Roll. A creature loses its Destiny Roll once it has been used or after they complete a long rest.

Timeless Motivation

Also at 3rd level, your inspiring words carry their meaning not just in the present, but in the future as well. Whenever you grant a creature bardic inspiration, the creature can use it once within the next 8 hours, rather than 10 minutes.

Bardic Resonance

At 6th level, you can foresee what words inspire your allies the most. If a creature rolls less than half of the maximum number on your bardic inspiration die, they can reroll it, but they must use the new roll, even if it is less than half of the maximum number on your bardic inspiration die.

Fortune's Favor

At 14th level, you are able to manifest karma to sway the future. As a reaction whenever a creature within 60 feet of you that you can see makes a roll with Advantage or Disadvantage, you can force the creature to roll an additional d20 and you choose which d20 is used for the result. You can do so a number of times equal to your proficiency bonus, regaining expended uses whenever you complete a long rest.
