College of Mirrors
At 6th level, your bardic magic deflects and redirects harm
By Morgan's Brews
Bards of the College of Mirrors specialize in the art of
redirection. What starts off as simple sleight of hand card
tricks or minor magical illusions can lead a bard to this
elusive path. A common value shared throughout this college
is that appearances can be and often are deceiving. These
bards often find themselves employed in thieves guilds as a
master of distraction, helping cover up assassinations or
secret plots, and many other jobs that require artful illusory
work.

Illusory Distraction
At 3rd level, your talents of redirection and distraction are
supplemented by illusory magic. You learn the spell silent
image if you do not know it already. It does not count towards
the number of bard spells you know.
Additionally, when you cast an enchantment or illusion
spell of 1st level or higher, you can use a bonus action to
magically turn invisible. This lasts until you cast a spell,
attack, or after 1 minute.
A creature that perceives any illusion created by that spell
as real or that fails any saving throw caused by the spell will
take an additional 1d6 psychic damage next time you damage
them with a cantrip or attack. You can deal this extra damage
once per spell, and only after you've became invisible.
The damage dealt by this feature increases to 3d6 psychic
damage at level 11.
Illusive Step
from those who hear it.
Whenever a creature expends your bardic inspiration dice
on a saving throw, if that effect that would allow them to take
only half damage on a successful saving throw, they instead
take no damage if they succeed.
Hall of Mirrors
Starting at 14th level, your magic can refract and reflect the
world around you, redirecting spells to protect you and your
allies.
When a spell targets you or a creature within 30 feet of
you, or if a spell's area of effect overlaps with that 30 foot
radius, you can attempt to reflect it as a reaction. Make an
ability check using your spellcasting ability plus your
proficiency modifier contested with the spellcaster's spell
save DC. On a success, the spell is recast from your location,
allowing you to change the targets or area of effect. It still
uses the spell attack modifier and spell save DC from the
caster.
This feature can not be used when the casting of the spell
takes you by surprise.
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your
Charisma modifier (minimum 1). You regain all expended
uses when you finish a long rest.
