It ends early if the bladesinger no longer meets the requirements, use two hands to make an attack, or ends it (no action required).
While the bladesong is active, it adds +3 to it's AC, 10 feet to it's walking speed and +3 to any Constitution saving throw it makes to maintain concentration on a spell. It also has advantage on Dexterity (Acrobatics) checks.
Description
Bladesingers master a tradition of wizardry that incorporates swordplay and dance. Originally created by elves, this tradition has been adopted by non-elf practitioners, who honor and expand on the elven ways. In combat, a bladesinger uses a series of intricate, elegant maneuvers that fend off harm and allow the bladesinger to channel magic into devastating attacks and a cunning defense. Many who have observed a bladesinger at work remember the display as one of the more beautiful experiences in their life, a glorious dance accompanied by a singing blade.
