Bard Archetype: College of the Loom

Woven in magic, patterns older than time compose the destiny of all things. Known as The Loom of Fate, these complex strings contain all that has been and all that is yet to be. The fey, in their ancient wisdom, discovered that while the weave is unchangeable, the loom can be played as an instrument of tremendous power. When a string is strummed, luck can be changed and the future revealed.

Fortune Favours the Brave

You know your destiny, and your knowledge fuels your acts of courage.

Upon joining this college at 3rd level, you can reroll one of your failed saving throws of any kind as a Charisma saving throw. If the save is to avoid being frightened, you automatically succeed if you use this feature. Once you use this feature, you can not do so again until you finish short or long rest.

Fated for Success

Your success has been predetermined and you amplify it further.

At 3rd level, when you complete a long rest, roll all your Bardic Inspiration dice and record the numbers rolled. You can replace any of the rolls of your Bardic Inspiration with a chosen recorded roll. Each roll can be used only once. When you finish a long rest, you lose any unused rolls.

A Band of Many

The more strings you play, the greater the chord.

Starting at 6th level, for each expended bardic inspiration, add 1 to your Fated for Success recorded numbers (when used) and to your Fortune Favours the Brave roll.

Additionally, when you expend a bardic inspiration, attacks against you are at disadvantage until the end of your next turn.

Harmonizing Moment

The highest and lowest notes are the most influential.

Upon reaching 14th level, once per turn, when you can see an enemy within 60 ft roll a 1 on an attack or an ally roll a 20, regain a use of bardic inspiration up to your maximum number.
