Instrument of the Bards

The Instruments of the Bards are the legacy of the seven legendary bard colleges named after them: Anstruth harp, Canaith mandolin, Cli lyre, Doss lute, Fochlucan bandore, Mac-Fuirmidh cittern, and Ollamh harp. All of them can endow the bard with the ability to cast the spells listed below.

Description
A bard can use an action to play the instrument and cast one of its spells listed below Once the instrument has been used to cast a spell, it can't be used to cast that spell again until the next dawn. The spells use bard's spellcasting ability and spell save DC. If the wielder uses the instrument to cast a spell with a Charmed effect, targets have disadvantage on the saving throw against it. This effect applies whether the bard is using the instrument as the source of the spell or as a spellcasting focus.

A creature that attempts to play the instrument without being attuned to it must succeed on a DC 15 Wisdom saving throw or take 2d4 psychic damage.
