Collage of Falconry
The college of falconry are bards who study the companionship between birds of prey and man.
Avian knowledge
Starting at the 3rd level, you gain proficiency in the animal handling skill if you didn't have it already and you may add your proficiency bonus an additional time to animal handling checks when interacting with birds and other avian creatures.
In addition you learn the animal friendship spell (which doesn’t count against known spells) and may cast it on avian creatures without spending a spell slot.
Avian companion
Starting at the 3rd level, you forge a magical bond with a bird of prey. The bird of prey has the statistics of a hawk (From the monster manual page 330) however it has the following stats replaced:
Hit points. Equal to (your proficiency bonus) + (your level x 5).
Armor class. Equal to 8 + (your proficiency bonus) + (The hawk’s dexterity)
Attacks. Talons: Melee weapon attack: (your proficiency bonus) + (the hawk’s dexterity) to hit, reach 5 ft, one target, (your current bardic inspiration die) + (the hawk’s dexterity) to hit.
It also gains the following ability:
Flyby: The hawk provokes no opportunity attacks when it flies out of an enemies reach.
Your Avian companion takes its turn directly after yours, however it will only take the dodge action unless you command it as an action to use a different action.
If your hawk dies or is otherwise lost, you can summon it back on a long rest.
Marked target
Starting at the 3rd level, you can use a bonus action to spend a bardic inspiration die to mark a target by whistling or a similar action. When you do so, for the next minute your hawk;
Adds your bardic inspiration die to attack rolls against the target.
And adds your bardic inspiration die to it’s damage rolls against the target.
If the marked target drops to 0 hit points before the duration ends, you may use a bonus action to mark a new target.
Strengthening bond
Starting at the 6th level, your avian companion gains a +2 bonus to their dexterity score (making it 18 or +4). This becomes +4 at the 14th level (making it 20 or +5).
Raptor swiftness
Starting at the 6th level, when your avien companion takes the attack action, they may make an additional talons attack on their turn as part of the same action.
Undying bond
Starting at the 14th level, when your avian companion is reduced to 0 hit points, you can resummon it early by spending a 3rd level spell slot.
