Your intense study of languages and cultures has turned you into a skilled linguist. Your ability to comprehend, speak, and decode languages is unparalleled. You gain the following benefits:

  • You gain proficiency in three languages of your choice.
  • When you encounter written text in a language you're proficient in but written in a code, cipher, or archaic form, you have advantage on Intelligence checks to decipher it.
  • You can understand the literal meaning of any spoken language you hear. However, you don't understand any secret meaning or metaphor in the language unless you're proficient in it.
  • Once per long rest, you can spend 10 minutes focusing on a piece of writing in a language you do not know. At the end of that time, you understand the text as if you were proficient in that language. This understanding lasts for 1 hour.

This feat makes you a master of languages, giving you the capability to bridge cultural and communication gaps that others find impassable. Whether it's ancient texts or secretive whisperings, few linguistic challenges can thwart you.
