# College of Dance For some, music is the pinnacle of art, others find paintings or statues to be better. The College of Dance teaches that you can overcome all obstacles through the power of dance. Bards of this college learn how to hinder foes and support their allies through the power of dance. *"We can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind."* -Men without Hats #### Dance Practice When you join the College of Dance at 3rd level, you gain the following benefits: **Bonus Proficiency.** Gain proficiency with Acrobatics and Performance. If you already have proficiency in either of these skills, choose another skill to gain proficiency in. **Battle Dance.** Any time you are performing an Enchanted Dance and not wearing medium or heavy armor, you may add your Charisma modifier to your armor class. #### Enchanted Dance Also at 3rd level, you learn to dance to produce supernatural effects on those around you. You learn two dances of your choice, which are detailed under "Dances" below. You learn an additional dance of your choice at 6th and 14th level. Whenever you learn a new dance you may replace one dance that you know with a new dance. As an action, you expend a Bardic Inspriation die. Your dance can affect a number of creatures equal to the roll + your Charisma modifier. All dances have a range of 15 feet. If a creature leaves this area, any effects from an enchanted dance ends immediately. You must use your action or bonus action at the beginning of your turn to maintain a dance. When you maintain a dance, the effect goes off immediately. While performing an Enchanted Dance, you must use your concentration. The dance ends if you use your action to do anything else. A dance may be maintained for 1 minute. You may perform an enchanted dance a number of times equal to your Constitution modifier. You regain all uses after a short or long rest. Some of you dances require your target(s) to make a saving throw to resist the dance's effects. The saving throw DC is calculated as 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier. #### 6th Level At 6th level, the range of your Enchanted Dance increases to 30 feet. #### Dance Fusion Starting at 14th level, you can start and maintain two enchanted dances using the same action. Both dances must have different level requirements. ##### Dances The following dances are listed alphabetically. Some dances have a minimum class level to learn. **Carnival Cha-cha.** The cha-cha grants all allies temporary hit points equal to your Bardic Inspiration die. Allies gain these temporary hit points every other round. These hit points do not stack with any source of temporary hit points, including this dance. **Dirty Dancing (6th Level Required).** This type of dancing improves the critical damage for allies. All allies add your Bardic Inspiration die to their damage roll whenever they perform a critical hit. **Heathen Frolic (14th Level Required).** All enemies that have the ability to cast spells from spell slots must make a saving throw based on their casting stat. Each enemy that fails this save must use a spell slot one level higher in order to cast a spell. When they do this the spell does not gain the benefits of being cast from a higher level slot. **Jitterbug (6th Level Required).** The jitterbug speeds up your allies. All allies gain a +1 bonus to armor class and their movement speed increases by 10 feet. The bonus to armor class increases by +1 at 14th level. **Magical Masque (14th Level Required).** This dance surrounds allies with a magic resistant bubble. This bubble encases the space the ally is in. Any spell of 3rd level or lower cast from outside the bubble can't affect the creature inside. These bubbles last so long as you dance. Once used, this dance can not be performed again until after you gain the benefits of a long rest.

\page **Mincing Minuet.** This deadly dance physically harms your enemies. All enemies within range take slashing damage equal to 2d6 + your Charisma modifier. Enemies may attempt a Constitution saving throw to reduce this damage by half. The damage of this dance increases by 1d6 at 6th level and again at 14th level. **Polka.** At the start of their turn, enemies must make a Charisma saving throw. Any creature that fails must roll and subtract a d4 from all attack rolls and saving throws they make until the start of their next turn. **Samba of Silence.** At the start of their turn, enemies must make a Charisma saving throw. Each enemy that fails is silenced and may not make any verbal sound for 1 round. Casting a spell that includes a verbal component is impossible for them. **Sleepy Shuffle.** The shuffle causes enemies to become drowsy and unfocused. At the start of their turn, enemies make a Wisdom saving throw or suffer disadvantage on ability checks until the start of their next turn. Any creature that remains within the area for 1 minute must make a Wisdom saving throw or immediately falls asleep for 1 hour. **Slug Dance (6th Level Required).** This dance makes enemies sluggish and lethargic. At the start of their turn, enemies make a Dexterity saving throw. An affected target's speed is halved, it takes a -2 penalty to AC and Dexterity Saving Throws, and it can't use reactions. Any creature that succeeds the saving throw becomes immune to this dance for 24 hours. **Weary Waltz (14th Level Required).** The waltz grants a level of exhaustion to a single enemy each round that the dance is maintained. The target may make a Constitution save at the start of its turn to stave off the exhaustion for that round. This exhaustion may not result in death. All levels of exhaustion caused by this dance disappear when the dance ends. >## Artwork > *[Dancer](http://www.wallpaperup.com/uploads/wallpapers/2015/02/04/610442/fe4425e5bc13b54803e3eb04e95330ec.jpg)* by Unknown artist >
