Talk:Bard (5A)
Bard Changes
Countercharm
At 7th level, you gain the ability to use musical notes or words of power to disrupt mind-influencing effects. As a bonus action or as a reaction, you can start a performance that lasts until the end of your next turn. A creature must be able to hear you to gain this benefit. The performance ends early if you are incapacitated or silenced or if you voluntarily end it (no action required). During that time, you and any friendly creatures within 30 feet of you have advantage on saving throws against being frightened or charmed.
Hymn of Rest
At 9th level, when you use Song of Rest, you and allies can apply the bonus healing to each Hit Die they spend during a short rest.
Magic Muse
At 11th level you can gain temporary access to any spell. As a bonus action, you can choose any one spell of a spell level you have spell slots for. Until the end of your current turn, add this spell to your bard spell list and prepared spells. 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.
Troupe Performance
At 13th 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, you can offer affected allies to concentrate on the spell. Each ally that accepts this now concentrates on maintaining the effect on themselves, using the normal rules for maintaining concentration. Targets that do not accept the offer to concentrate on the spell are not affected by the spell at all. You can maintain concentration on another spell or effect when you use Troupe Performance. You can only have one Troupe Performance spell running at any one time, if you cast another the earlier one immediately ends.
Magic Muse
At 17th level, you can use the Magic Muse ability three times.
