# Bard: College of the Courtiers

___
As a bard of the college our courtiers, you use your influence to determine the fates of nations and guide its rulers’ relations. You are at your most powerful whispering from the shadows. History alone records your performance.

###  Quick Word
*3rd Level College of the Courtiers Feature*

You learn the cantrip *message*. If you already know this cantrip, you learn another cantrip from the bard spell list. You can cast message as a bonus action and you can choose a number of creatures up to your Charisma modifier as targets.

### Quibble
*3rd Level College of the Courtiers Feature*

As a reaction to another creature making a Wisdom or Charisma check, you can spend a bardic inspiration die, adding your own commentary. If your words are heard and understood, you can choose to either add or subtract one roll of your bardic inspiration die to the check. You can do this after you see the roll but before the effects are resolved.

Also, when you cast an enchantment spell that deals damage, you can spend a use of your bardic inspiration to add one roll of your bardic inspiration die to a damage total.

## Courtier’s Secret Spells

You learn two enchantment or divination spells of your choice from any spell list of a level that you have spell slots for. When you complete a long rest, you can replace one of those spells with any divination or enchantment spell of a level that you have spell slots for. You cannot create spell scrolls of Courter’s secret spells.

## Master of Manipulation
*14th Level Bard College of Courtiers Feature*
