 These bards take their pursuit of muscular perfection seriously, and will often parade their bodies unbidden. What these individuals lack in self-awareness or humility, however, they more than make up for in raw, physical power. After all, confidence fuels the strength of these bards, and this is a quality they have in abundance.
 When they join this college, it is common for bards to adopt pseudonyms that help them play to a crowd.

 ==== Bardic Brawn ====
-When you join the College of Machismo at 3rd level, you double down on iron-pumped peacocking. Your hit point maximum increases by 3, and it increases by 1 whenever you gain another level in this class. Further, your unarmed strikes now use a d6 for damage, and by flaunting your physique or muscular prowess, you can make Strength (Intimidation) and Strength (Performance) checks in place of your Charisma (Intimidation) and Charisma (Performance) checks, respectively.<br>

-This degree of self-confidence is its own form of protection. While you aren't wearing armor or wielding a shield, your AC equals 10 + your Strength modifier + your Charisma modifier.

 ==== Center of Attention ====
-After reaching 14th level, you can strike a vainglorious pose that taunts your enemies and provokes their enmity. Using an action, or using the bonus action granted by your Feat of Strength feature, you can make a Strength (Performance) check contested by the Wisdom (Insight) check of a creature within 60 feet of you that can see you. Creatures that cannot be charmed are unaffected.<br>
