Talk:Bard (5A)
Troupe Performance
At 7th level, you and your party have performed and fought together for a long time and practiced team routines. When you cast a spell that requires concentration and affects only you and close allies (generally party members, including followers), you can offer one of the affected allies to take over concentration on the spell. If accepted, the spell effect does not change, but it is your ally that concentrates on the spell and risks having their concentration interrupted, not you. The spell must be one that does not affect an area, create a freestanding effect, summons a creature, or otherwise directly affect anyone or anything except your long-standing allies and their gear. You can only have one Troupe Performance spell running at any one time, if you cast another the earlier one immediately ends.
Cosmic Inspiration
At 11th level you can gain temporary access to any bard spell. As a bonus action, you can choose any one spell on your bard spell list of a spell level you have spell slots for. Until the end of your current turn, you can cast it as normal using a spell slot. It counts as a bard spell for you. If the spell has a casting time longer than an action, you must begin casting the spell before the end of your current turn, but can continue and complete the spellcasting after the end of of your turn. You can use this ability only once, and regain the ability when you finish a long rest.
