==Fenwick the Scribe, Tome Dwarf, Bard (Creation) ==
''As a youth, Fenwick was a troublemaker, living on the margins of Stonegate society and thieving what he could in order to procure food for his family. One day, he uncovered some dirt on a middle-ranking official of the Tinker´s Guild [=bard college] and so added blackmail to his list of crimes. Obtaining a position in the Guild was transformative as he now had a steady income and a trade.

''Eventually, Fenwick´s master got his revenge, though, having him assigned as Scribe to the Black Betty and out of the way.''

:'''Darkvision:''' Accustomed to life underground, you have superior vision in dark and dim conditions. You can see in dim light within 60 feet of you as if it were bright light, and in darkness as if it were dim light. You can't discern color in darkness, only shades of gray.

==Class Features (Bard)==
: '''Bardic Inspiration''' - Inspire others through stirring words or music | Bonus action | One creature (not self)  60' & can hear | 1d8 Bardic Inspiration to use in next 10 min | add post hoc to ability check, attack roll or saving throw | Cha mod = 3 / short/long rest | d8 at 5th level
:: ''Font of Inspiration''  - Beginning when you reach 5th level, you regain all of your expended uses of Bardic Inspiration when you finish a short or long rest

:: ''Subheading:'' Description


: '''College of Creation''' xxxxx

: '''Mote of Potential''' - Whenever you give a creature a Bardic Inspiration die, you can utter a note from the Song of Creation to create a Tiny mote of potential, which orbits within 5 feet of that creature. The mote is intangible and invulnerable, and it lasts until the Bardic Inspiration die is lost. The mote looks like a musical note, a star, a flower, or another symbol of art or life that you choose | When the creature uses the Bardic Inspiration die, the mote provides an additional effect based on whether the die benefits an ability check, an attack roll, or a saving throw, as detailed below:
:: Ability Check. When the creature rolls the Bardic Inspiration die to add it to an ability check, the creature can roll the Bardic Inspiration die again and choose which roll to use, as the mote pops and emits colorful, harmless sparks for a moment.
:: Attack Roll. Immediately after the creature rolls the Bardic Inspiration die to add it to an attack roll against a target, the mote thunderously shatters. The target and each creature of your choice that you can see within 5 feet of it must succeed on a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC or take thunder damage equal to the number rolled on the Bardic Inspiration die.
:: Saving Throw. Immediately after the creature rolls the Bardic Inspiration die and adds it to a saving throw, the mote vanishes with the sound of soft music, causing the creature to gain temporary hit points equal to the number rolled on the Bardic Inspiration die plus your Charisma modifier (=3) (minimum of 1 temporary hit point).

: '''Performance of Creation''' - Also at 3rd level, as an action, you can channel the magic of the Song of Creation to create one nonmagical item of your choice in an unoccupied space within 10 feet of you. The item must appear on a surface or in a liquid that can support it. The gp value of the item can't be more than 20 times your bard level, and the item must be Medium or smaller. The item glimmers softly, and a creature can faintly hear music when touching it. The created item disappears after a number of hours equal to your proficiency bonus. For examples of items you can create, see the equipment chapter of the Player's Handbook.
:: Once you create an item with this feature, you can't do so again until you finish a long rest, unless you expend a spell slot of 2nd level or higher to use this feature again. You can have only one item created by this feature at a time; if you use this action and already have an item from this feature, the first one immediately vanishes.
:: The size of the item you can create with this feature increases by one size category when you reach 6th level (Large) and 14th level (Huge).
