This is a Bard subclass for 5A.

Formally The College of Domains, domain bards focus on a spiritual domain, an area of interest much like a cleric domain.

Subclass Features

Domain

At 3rd level, you select a cleric domain appropriate to your faith. You gain abilities based on this domain.

  • At 3rd level when you select your domain, you gain the 1st level ability of that domain.
  • Also at level 3, you can spend one use of Bardic Inspiration to use your domain's Channel Divinity ability.
  • At 6th level, you gain the level 6th level ability of your chosen domain.
  • At 14th level, you gain the level 17 ability of your chosen domain.

When a domain feature mentions your cleric level, use your bard level instead. When a domain feature mentions heavy armor, replace that mention by medium armor. When a domain feature mentions your Wisdom ability bonus, use your Charisma ability bonus instead. When a domain feature allows a saving throw, use your spell saving throw DC.

Domain Spells

Each domain has a list of spells—its domain spells—that you gain at the bard levels noted in the domain description, except that you gain both the 1st and 3rd level domain spells when you join this college at 3rd level. Domain spells are known spells to you but don't count against your limit on known spells. If you have a domain spell that doesn't appear on the bard spell list, the spell is nonetheless a bard spell for you.

Designer's Notes

Moved from Chanting_(5A) to allow that subclass to be re-developed. A bard that uses cleric domains. The most important ability is domain spells added to added known spells.
