The College of Fisher's Tradition is the school of Bards who spin tales of their accomplishments, ancestral traditions, and stories of their adventures in the wild blue yonder - and stretch them beyond the constraints of reality. With their magical skill, College of Fisher's Tradition Bards can weave tales that inspire and empower their allies, conjure magical creatures from their adventures in angling, and cast unique spells that aid them in angling and adventure alike.

Fisher's Tales

Conjured Tale
(Bonus Action - Proficiency Bonus/Long Rest).
You can imagine a Medium size or smaller fish you have encountered or heard about in your lifetime and conjure a spectral version of this fish within 30 ft. of yourself.
On your subsequent turns, as a Bonus Action, you can move this fish up to 30 ft. in any direction and have it take one of the following Actions:
- Help. Your spectral fish grants the Help Action to a willing creature within 5 ft. of it.
- Tale Whip. You can make a Melee Spell Attack against a creature within 5 ft. of the spectral fish. On a hit, the target is struck and takes Force Damage equal to 1d8 + your Charisma Modifier
This spectral fish lasts for 1 Minute or until you are knocked Unconscious.
