College of Cultists (5e Subclass)
College of Cultists
Bard subclass
Some devout followers of fiends establish colleges dedicated to the study of serving and summoning fiends. These groups of cultists' mission is to further the progress of whatever creature they serve. Sometimes this involves dealing contracts with naïve mortals, collecting bounties on unpaid contracts, or infiltrating and reporting on enemies from the material plane.
Fiendish Knowledge
Starting at 3rd level, choose a fiend from the list below to pledge your services too. You learn the language, Abyssal or Infernal, associated with that fiend. In addition, you have advantage on Intelligence skill checks to recall information about fiends of that creature subtype, devil or demon.
Devils. Asmodeus, Baazlebul, Dispater, Fierna, Geryon, Glasya, Levistus, Mammon, Mephistopheles, Zariel
Demons. Baphomet, Demogorgon, Fraz-Urb'luu, Graz'zt, Juiblex, Orcus, Yeenoghu, Zuggtmoy
Signature Spells
At 3rd level, the fiend you have pledged your services to has bestowed signature spells upon you. These spells do not count against your spells known, and you may only cast spells for which you have spell slots for. See pages 18-20 & 30-31 of Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes for the spells your fiend has granted you.
Fiendish Boon
Beginning at 6th level, your dedication, determination, and drive towards your fiend has been rewarded. Depending on the fiend you serve, a trait is bestowed on you. Pages 18-20 & 30-31 of Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes has the traits listed for your fiend.
Conjure Fiend
Starting at 14th level, you may cast conjure celestial except that you conjure a fiend instead of a celestial. You must finish a long rest before using this feature again.
