College of Theatrics

The hefty dwarf stands in full costume of a king and begins to speak to the crowd below. "Forsooth! I am no king, but a fool. I must return to the lands where I came to seek revenge on those who made me the poor fellow I am today." He brings out a toothy grin, as the crowd beneath him roars with cheer, and begins to throw roses his way.

The bards of the College of Theatrics are often known for their ability to improvise onstage, perform riveting sonnets and monologues, and carry a large sense of the dramatics of theater.

Speaker of Sonnets

When you join the College of Theatrics at 3rd level, you can use your voice as your spellcasting focus, and you ignore effects that would affect verbal components of spells.

Unfaltering Speech

Also at 3rd level, you learn how to take hits from the crowd and still deliver a powerful monologue. As a reaction to getting hit by a creature's attack, you can spend one bardic inspiration die. When you do, you gain advantage on Constitution Saving Throws against concentration, and deal your bardic inspiration die + your Charisma modifier's amount of psychic damage to the target that attacked you.

Memorizing the Role

At 6th level, you learn to memorize other's movements and the script. As an action, you can choose to copy a attack or spell of a creature within 30 feet of you. If you choose to cast a spell, you must have a spell slot at the same level as the level the spell was cast at. You can do this a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier, afterwards you must take a long rest.

Master Thespian

Starting at 14th level, you have shown to be an expert in the field of acting. You can treat all rolls on Insight, Performance, and Deception checks you roll a 9 or lower on as a 10. You can also re-roll any Charisma based check you make. You can only do this once before taking a long rest.
