College of beast charming

Animals have a fascinating reaction to sounds and music. It is often said that birds like music and the melodies they sing only prove further their affinity for the sound based artform. While it as been disproven that music charms snakes and that's its rather the flutist's swaying that incites the snakes, it's still the performance in itself that intices the reptiles in their pots. Bards of the college of beast charming saw this connection animals have with music and pushed it to the extreme by infusing their performance with a bit of magic to make animals who hear them into loyal allies.

Animal Charming

During a long rest, you can mark a beast that is friendly to you that can hear or see you and that has a CR rating equal to or lower than half your bard level rounded up. If there aren't any, you can perform an animal caling melody. When the melody ends, a beast with a CR rating equal to or lower than half your bard level rounded up and that isn't hostile to you will approach you (The beast is chosen at random from among the beasts with the highest possible CR rating in the area your level allows). It is now friendly to you and can understand your speach. It obeys directly your commands unless they are directly harmful to itself, but it will still fight on your behalf. While a beast is marked as your animal companion, it is immune to the charmed condition from anyone and anything other than you. During combat, you can issue commands to your animal companion by using your bonus action and using it's reaction. These commands can be to use the attack action, help action or any other action that the beast has in it's stat block. If no commands are received, the beast will defend itself to the best of it's abilities or use the dodge action. You can only have one creature marked as your animal companion at a time. During a long rest, you can sever the bond with your animal companion. It stays friendly to you but can no longer understand you and will desire to go back living into the wilderness.

All attacks made with this aditionnal action are made with advantage. Also, as long as your animal companion as a bardic inspiration die, it's attacks count as magical for overcoming resistances
