ONE on ONE duels

A player can incite a 1v1 duel.

The contestants both start with 20 hit points -- it should be noted that these are separate from their physical health and no injury is sustained in the duel -- and their AC is equal to 10 + their Charisma modifier. The winner of the duel is whoever reduces their opponent’s HP to zero first.


 * Melody. Make an attack roll using Dexterity (representing timing and precision) - and applying your proficiency bonus if you are proficient in the instrument you are using - against the opponent’s AC. On a hit, they take damage equal to 1d6 + your Dexterity modifier.
 * Harmony. If you are equipped with two instruments that can be played simultaneously, such as a lute and your singing voice, you can make one attack with each, as per the melody action. However, both of these attacks have disadvantage.
 * Chorus. You play a simple, resounding motif that deals no damage to your opponent but restores your will to fight. You regain 1d4 hit points.
 * Re-tune. You quickly recalibrate your instrument. You have advantage on the next two attack rolls you make with it.
 * Distract. You play a discordant mess to confuse your opponent. Their next two attacks have disadvantage.
 * Cast a Spell. You cast a spell. Contestants in a duel are immune to all damage from spells cast by their opponent, except for psychic and thunder damage.
