Not an officially recognized college, the College of the Road represents the personal and eclectic sets of skills, knowledge, and techniques a wandering bard picks up along their journey. As inveterate jacks-of-all-trades, bards possess a variety of aptitudes in combat, magecraft, and general know-how, making them particularly well suited to learning a variety of different skills. It often happens that while traveling, a bard winds up sharing their campfire with a motley assortment of wandering adventurers who may impart valuable lessons in exchange for a lively song or a well-told tale. Compared to students of other Bard Colleges, a special kind of sensibility is important for the College of the Road. How effectively a bard of this College can apply what they have learned depends on their understanding and insight. The College of the Road is sometimes a harsh teacher, but bards who follow this path often find themselves rewarded with a diverse array of useful tricks and tactics. Those who underestimate a bard from the College of the Road soon find that these "graduates" are full of surprises.

When you join the College of the Road at 3rd level, you gain a few useful proficiencies picked up from your time on the road. Choose three of the following options (each option can only be selected once):
l You gain proficiency with a Gaming Set of your choice
l You gain proficiency with a martial weapon of your choice
l You gain proficiency with Herbalism Kits
l You gain proficiency with Thieves' Tools
l You gain proficiency with a skill of your choice
l You learn two languages of your choice

At 3rd level, you can share any useful tidbits of information you have come across in your travels to help others to see problems from a new angle. When a creature has a Bardic Inspiration die granted by you, they may make a single Arcana, History, Nature, or Religion check with advantage. The creature may choose whether or not to add the Bardic Inspiration die to this roll.

At 3rd level you already have several memorable experiences from your life on the road. You learn two Traveler’s Tricks of your choice (see Traveler’s Trick Options).
These Traveler’s Tricks represent skills, techniques, and useful pieces of knowledge picked up along the way. Each one requires you to expend a use of your Bardic Inspiration, and takes a bonus action to use unless otherwise specified.
At 6th level and at 14th level you learn an additional Traveler’s Trick.

The community domain focuses on the ties that bind all people together. These are the ties of family and friendship, the
ties to ancestors, as well as the ties between elders and the next generation with whom they share their wisdom. The power of the Gods of community is in the security of home and hearth, and the joy of good company. Many such gods teach the value of tradition and simple ways of living in harmony with the natural world. They also tend towards the rule of law, not as a kind of great bureaucracy, but as sacred traditions passed from generation to generation. Some gods advocate the removal of harsh or disruptive forces to this order, and proper sanctions for the violation of the goodwill that any community ought to provide.
Clerics of such gods value unity, and praise the strength that can be gained when people support each other

1st -----Bless, Goodberry
3rd-----Aid, Heroism
5th-----Beacon of Hope
7th-----Banishment, Faithful Hound
9th-----Mass Cure Wounds, Telepathic Bond

From 1st level, you gain the ability to conjure a small flagstone hearth with a simple iron cooking pot whenever you rest. This hearth helps warm you and your companions, and can be used to prepare hearty and nutritious meals on the road. If you or any friendly creatures you make camp with would regain hit points at the end of a short rest by spending one or more hit dice, each of those creatures may choose to re-roll one of their resting dice, taking the higher roll between the two.
Additionally, you gain proficiency with Cook’s utensils.

Starting at 2nd level, you may use your Channel Divinity to conjure a magical feast for the rough road ahead. By spending 10 minutes, you may create a number of delicious, well-prepared, yet simple food items equal to your Wisdom modifier (minimum of 1). These food items will last up to 8 hours or until the end of a rest, and will never spoil. Eating food created in this way takes an action, providing whomever eats it with healing equal to 2d4 + your cleric level, and can remove either the frightened or poisoned condition from that creature (chosen by the creature when consumed).

The night is mysterious, and conceals many unseen dangers. However, the cover of darkness also brings protection
from predators and shadows within which one can conceal themselves. The gods of night are varied, encompassing those who would use the cover of darkness to protect others from threats, to those who would use the shadows for wrong doings. The motives of night gods are often shrouded in mystery. Many teach their followers that it is only by peering through the darkness and looking beyond what is hidden that one can attain truth. Clerics of night do their best to keep themselves and their companions safe while journeying through the darkness.

1st -----Sleep, Veil of dusk*
3rd ----- darkness, moonbeam
5th----- nondetection, globe of twilight*
7th ----- divination, stellar bodies*
9th ----- dream, seeming
*indicates a new spell to the setting

Beginning at 1st level, a divine blessing grants you the ability to see more clearly in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in magical or nonmagical darkness as if it were only dim light. You can’t discern color in the darkness, only shades of gray.
When you reach 6th level, you can see in dim light within 120 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in magical or nonmagical darkness as if it were dim light. You can’t discern color in the darkness, only shades of gray.
At 8th level, you can see normally in darkness, both magical and nonmagical within 120 feet.
Finally, at 17th level, your eyes are able to see the truth hiding within darkness. You gain the ability to call upon the
powers of your deity to grant yourself truesight within 120 feet of you for a number of minutes equal to your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of 1 minute). Your truesight only functions while in conditions of magical or nonmagical darkness. Once you have used this feature, you cannot use it again until you have completed a long rest.

At 1st level, you can create a ward of divine shadows to conceal yourself from an attacking enemy. When attacked by a creature you can see within 30 feet of you, you can use your reaction to impose disadvantage on the attack roll, as shadows envelop your form. An attacker that can’t be blinded is immune to this feature.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Wisdom modifier (a minimum of once), and regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Starting at 2nd level, you can use your Channel Divinity to harness the powers of night, clouding the vision of your foes in a shroud of darkness.
As an action, you present your holy symbol causing any source of mundane or magical light within 30 feet of you to be extinguished. Additionally, each hostile creature within 30 feet of you must make a Constitution saving throw. A creature who fails the saving throw is blinded for a number of rounds equal to your cleric level. A creature blinded in this way gets a new saving throw at the end of each of its turns to remove the effect. A creature that has total cover from you is not affected.

A fighter who hits hard and fights dirty, the Scofflaw balks at the ideals of honor and tradition, doing what they need to survive. Rules are made to be broken, and the Scofflaw extends this logic to their fighting style. Using every trick at their disposal to gain the upper hand against their foes, the Scofflaw cows their enemy into submission, or overwhelms their defenses with a single cheap shot.
Scofflaws eventually trust their notorious reputation to do much of the work for them, gaining the ability to cause foes to quake with a single threat. Scofflaws are a diverse bunch that run the gamut from graceful yet deadly knaves to bruiser thugs. What ties them together is their belief that there’s no such thing as a bad win.

When you choose this Martial Archetype at 3rd level, you gain proficiency in one of the following skills of your choice: Deception, Insight, Intimidation, Sleight of Hand, or Stealth.
Alternatively, you may learn Thieves’ Cant.

At 3rd level, you are adept at integrating insults and barbs into your fighting style. So long as you are in combat, you may choose to use Strength or Dexterity to make Charisma ability checks.

At 3rd level, your tavernside scuffles have honed your ability to deal damage with just about anything that’s handy. You have proficiency with improvised weapons, and treat any improvised weapon you handle as if it has the finesse quality.
Additionally, whenever you hit with an improvised weapon, you may spend a bonus action to break it over your opponent. Doing this destroys the weapon, but deals the maximum number each of the weapon’s damage dice could deal to the target. Any additional dice added to the attack’s damage roll are not affected by this ability.
At 10th level, the improvised weapons you wield become even more lethal in your hands. When you spend your bonus action to break an improvised weapon over your opponent, add an additional 2d6 to the weapon’s base damage dice.
At 18th level, you have advantage on attacks you make with improvised weapons

Every druid has a responsibility to the natural world, but those who join the Circle of the Warden stand as sentinels of
nature’s balance. The Circle of the Warden druids specialize in divination and abjuration magic to help foresee possible imbalances and correct them before they cause irreparable damage. To the druids of this circle, people are as much a part of the natural balance as plants and animals. As such, these druids can be found providing succor to those affected by natural disasters just as often as to flora and fauna. In Humblewood, many druids who have joined the Tenders of the Scorched Grove are members of this circle, as its values align quite closely with the tenets of their order.

Starting when you choose this circle at 2nd level, you form a connection to the natural world around you, and you can sense when it is in danger. You gain expertise in the Nature and Insight skills. Your proficiency bonus is doubled for any ability check you make that uses either of those proficiencies.
Additionally, by spending 10 minutes communing with nature, you can glean the following information about the area within 3 miles of you:
l You learn the general location and severity of any immediate threats to the environment in the region (forest fires, flooding, blights, etc.).
l You learn if any aberrations, beasts, elementals, fey, or undead are present within range, but not their specific locations.
l You learn the general direction of the nearest portal to an elemental plane.

Also at 2nd level, you learn the art of siphoning off harmful elemental energy. You can use this to lessen elemental damage being done to your allies by shouldering some of it yourself. When a creature within 30 feet of you takes cold, fire, lightning, or thunder damage, you can use your reaction to grant that creature resistance against the damage dealt. You take damage equal to the amount taken by the target creature.
Additionally, you may spend an action to reduce the area of natural or magical effects which deal persistent cold, fire, or lightning damage within 30 feet of you. You may remove up to a 20-foot cube from the area of such effects per use of this feature. However, for each 5-foot space of energy damage removed in this way, you take 1d4 points of damage of the same type the effect would deal. If the effect is caused by a spell, you instead take 1d4 points of damage per the spell’s level for each 5-foot space removed and, if there are no damage-dealing spaces remaining, the spell is dispelled.

Your patron is a primal beast, driven by a bloodthirsty need to hunt. These beings tempt creatures to give in to their base instincts and become apex predators. Ancient white dragons, demons with a bestial bent, and the Amaranthine Kren have all been known to occasionally grant feral powers to those desperate enough to seek their aid. Many who strike a pact with a Predator find themselves forever changed, bearing razor teeth and wicked claws, an aspect of their predatory patron.

1st-----Hunter's Mark, Jump
2nd ----- alter self, ambush prey*
3rd -----blink, slow
4th ----- dominate beast, freedom of movement
5th ----- contagion, misled

Starting at 1st level, your patron grants you enhanced tracking skills. You gain expertise with the Survival skill, and you add double your proficiency bonus to any Wisdom (Survival) skill checks you make.

At 1st level, you can use your bonus action to channel the ferocity and guile of your patron, transforming into a beastly figure. For 10 minutes, you gain the following abilities:
l You are flooded with adrenaline, feeling nothing besides the thrill of the hunt. You gain temporary hit points equal to two times your warlock level, up to a maximum of 20 temporary hit points at 10th level. These temporary hit points last until the end of your transformation.
l Your senses become supernaturally keen. You have advantage on Dexterity (Stealth), Wisdom (Perception), and Wisdom (Survival) checks you make to track or stalk your prey.
l You sprout a set of pointed teeth and razor-sharp claws, which are natural weapons you can use to make unarmed strikes against creatures within 5 feet of you. You have proficiency with these weapons and can use your Charisma modifier for the attack and damage rolls made using these natural weapons. On a hit, your bite deals 1d6 piercing damage, and your claws deal 1d4 slashing damage. If you already had a bite or claw attack (talon attacks count as claw attacks), its damage increases by one step (a d4 becomes a d6, a d6 becomes a d8, etc.). As a bonus action, after making a bite attack, you can make a claw attack.
l Starting at 5th level, your muscles strengthen, and your movements quicken. You can now make two claw attacks using your bonus action after you have made a bite attack with your action. Additionally, at 5th level, you can take the Dash or Hide action as a bonus action while you are in your Form of the Beast.
You can use this feature twice per short or long rest.
At 6th level, your transformation lasts for 1 hour instead of 10 minutes.

Prerequisite: 7th level
As an action, you can transform into a dire wolf, giant spider, or giant octopus following the same rules as the polymorph spell, but you retain your Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma scores. You also retain all of your saving throw proficiencies, in addition to gaining those of the creature, as well as any skill proficiencies that your beast form is physically capable of performing. If the creature has the same proficiency as you and the bonus in its stat block is higher than yours, use the creature’s bonus instead of yours. You maintain the ability to speak and can cast spells that have only a verbal component.
You maintain this form for 1 hour or until the form drops to 0 hit points, at which point you revert back to your normal form. If you revert as a result of dropping to 0 hit points, any excess damage carries over to your normal form.
Once you use this invocation, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.

Prerequisites: Pact of the Blade feature
Your fingers grow into bestial claws, which you can use to make unarmed strikes that deal 1d6 points of slashing damage. You may add your Charisma modifier instead of your Strength modifier to attack and damage rolls made with these unarmed strikes. Your unarmed strikes count as pact weapons, in addition to any melee weapons you have chosen, and as light weapons for the purposes of two-weapon fighting

Prerequisites: Pact of the Chain feature
You can summon even more monstrous familiars to your side. When you cast the find familiar spell, you may choose one of the normal forms for your familiar or one of the following special forms: blink dog, death dog, panther, or worg.
Additionally, you can spend a bonus action on your turn to command your familiar to take the Attack action against an opponent of your choice.

Prerequisites: Pact of the Tome feature
A new page appears in your book of shadows, dedicated to your quarry. When you recover physical evidence from a creature (a drop of its blood, a strand of its hair, a feather, tooth or claw, etc.), you can offer it to your book of shadows in a special ritual that takes 10 minutes to perform. The ritual consumes the offered physical evidence as the name of the creature from which it came is inscribed upon the page in red
ink. After this ritual, as long as you have your book of shadows with you, you have advantage on any Intelligence checks you make related to the creature.
Additionally, you can spend 1 minute examining the page to learn one of the following facts about the creature:
l Its creature type and alignment
l Any names or aliases it uses
l Its current distance and direction from you (provided it is on the same plane of existence)
l Any vulnerabilities or flaws it has
l Whether or not it is wounded
l Whether or not it is suffering from a condition, a curse, or a similar effect, as well as the nature of that effect
The page can only hold the name of one creature at a time, and you can choose whether to replace the name of the creature currently occupying space on the page each time you complete the ritual.

The primal forces of nature have their own magical energy, one which can be harnessed by wizards with proper training. By drawing on this power, leyline wizards can tap into primordial reservoirs of magic to gain access to new spells, empower their own spellcasting, or disrupt opposing forces that attempt to take root in their domain. The most powerful wizards of this tradition can set new leylines, transforming unnatural or inhospitable places into paradises with time. These wizards work closely with druids, and they can gradually heal environments that have been blighted or corrupted.

When you choose this arcane tradition at 2nd level, you learn how to attune yourself to the magic of leylines which course through nature. Each day when you prepare your spells in a natural setting, you may also attune yourself to the energy of a nearby leyline to gain additional spells. When you do, consult the list of spells from the Leyline Spells table that matches the environment in which you prepared your spells. You can only be attuned to one leyline at a time.
While attuned to a leyline, you gain access to any spells on your current list of leyline spells for which you meet the level requirement. For as long as you are attuned to a leyline, you always have these spells prepared, and they don’t count against the number of spells you can prepare each day. Leyline spells are not copied into your spellbook. If you gain access to a spell that doesn’t appear on the wizard spell list, the spell is nonetheless a wizard spell for you.

Also at 2nd level, you learn how to channel energy from a leyline to supplement your spells, infusing them with power. Whenever you are in an environment that matches a leyline to which you are attuned, you can apply one of the following benefits to any leyline spell you cast (chosen when you cast the spell):
l You gain a +2 bonus to attack rolls made with this spell.
l You gain a +1 bonus to your spell save DC for this spell.
l You have advantage on Constitution saving throws you make to maintain concentration on this spell, and you can concentrate on this spell for up to twice its normal duration.
At 14th level, you can apply one of these benefits to a single spell of 6th level or higher when you cast it, so long as you are in an environment that matches a leyline to which you are attuned. You can’t use this feature again until you have completed a long rest
