Bards of the College of Dance are fearless performers who entertain and enchant their audiences with endearing, seductive, or technically impressive choreography, while using the same skill set to strike unexpectedly at their enemies.
Star Dancer
When you join the College of Dance at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in Acrobatics and Performance. If you already have proficiency in either or both of these skills, double your proficiency bonus for any ability check you make that uses Acrobatics or Performance.
Unencumbered Moves
Beginning at 3rd level, while you are wearing no armor and not wielding a shield, your AC equals 10 + your Dexterity modifier + your Charisma modifier.
Aggressive Choreography
Also at 3rd level, your graceful dancing allows you to suddenly attack your foes with flexibility and force.
You gain the following benefits while you are aren’t wearing armor or wielding a shield:
- You can use Dexterity instead of Strength for the attack and damage rolls of your unarmed strikes.
- You can roll a d4 in place of the normal damage of your unarmed strikes.
- If you use your action to make an Attack or to cast a spell, you can make one unarmed strike as a bonus action.
Extra Attack
Starting at 6th level, you can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn.
Empowered Choreography
Also at 6th level, your unarmed strikes count as magical for the purpose of overcoming resistance and immunity to nonmagical attacks and damage. In addition, the damage from your unarmed strikes increases to a d6.
Enchanting Choreography
At 14th level, you may add your Charisma modifier to the attack and damage rolls for your unarmed strikes. In addition, the damage from your unarmed strikes increases to a d8, and you no longer provoke opportunity attacks after making an unarmed strike on your turn.
