Masters of Music, and well schooled in a wide range of skills and lore, a Bard drinks in all he or she can of the happenings of the lands and uses it to their advantage. To attempt to define a Bard is to try to put order to the sands on the shore -- they are warriors, performers, wanderers, teachers, scholars... and much much more.

===Crafting Affiliation===
==Guild Abilities==
Guilded bards receive one free technique slot in the Tinkering discipline of the [[Engineering skill]], one free technique slot in the Shaping discipline of the Engineering skill and one free technique slot in the Carving discipline of the Engineering skill.
===Vocal Technique===
Anyone can sing, but a Bard is fully trained in using his or her voice, lending to it a refined vocal range (Examples: Tenor, Soprano, etc.). This vocal range stands out when SINGing or CHANTing, or with enough skill while leading a CHORUS of fellow Guildmates.


See: [[Crafting]]
===Instrumental Technique===
Bards who keep their focus on their instruments can maintain a higher inspirational state, affording them a greater performing skill that can affect all aspects of their music.


==[[:Category:Bard Abilities|Guild Abilities]]==
===PLAYACT===
===[[Vocals skill|Vocal Technique]]===
An advanced performance ability, PLAYACT allows a Bard to perform with greater effect and clarity for their audience. Using PLAYACT or PLAYACT 's (make sure you use the space when using the possessive) gives a Bard the ability to embellish their performance ''anywhere'' with custom movements. Abuse of PLAYACT or use during non-performance can result in it being removed from a Bard. Ask your neighborhood guildleader to see if you qualify to learn this amazing ability.
When anyone uses the <tt>[[Sing command|SING]]</tt>, <tt>[[Chant command|CHANT]]</tt>, or <tt>[[Chorus command|CHORUS]]</tt> commands, their vocal range is displayed (e.g., tenor, soprano). Anyone can check their own vocal range with <tt>[[Practice voice command|PRACTICE VOICE]]</tt>.


Bards are able to change their own vocal range with skill in Vocals. They can check which ranges they can do with <tt>[[Practice command|PRACTICE VOICE]]</tt>, and use <tt>[[Practice command|PRACTICE VOICE &lt;range&gt;]]</tt> to change to a new range.
Playacting Guidelines (from the Bard Guild FAQ folder)
[http://www.play.net/forums/messages.asp?forum=20&category=15&topic=16&page=1]:


===[[Play|Instrumental Technique]]===
"The general guidelines for playacting are simple: If it's not something your character could do, were you in a real-life setting, then it's not something you should be playacting. However a great deal of leeway is given when it comes to performances, especially plays, because of the limited nature of our environment. Appending the name of your 'role' to your own name, using flourishes and theatrical techniques (such as producing a dagger from thin air) that a trained performer would be able to do are all perfectly fine.
Bards who keep their focus on their [[Percussions skill|percussion]], [[Strings skill|string]] and [[Winds skill|wind]] instruments can maintain a higher inspirational state, affording them a greater performing skill that can affect all aspects of their music.


===[[Playact ability|PLAYACT]]===
Less tolerance is given to someone 'fooling around' by transforming themselves into a troll, flying around the room, or doing normally impossible feats for no other reason than to just do them. For this you likely wouldn't receive a warning, but rather a nudge via SEND to keep things on track. We all have a fun-loving nature and need to stretch our wings sometime, but we'll let you know if you're taking it too far.
An advanced performance ability, <tt>PLAYACT</tt> allows a Bard to perform with greater effect and clarity for their audience.


===[[Recall command|RECALL]]===
There is only one true thing we have no tolerance on at all, and that is using PLAYACT to abuse, scam, or otherwise harass someone. Depending upon the severity of what occured, you can lose your ability to playact for any length of time, and/or rack up warnings and time out of the game. There are no second chances on this score, since you are warned by typing PLAYACT by itself that it is meant as a performance tool, nothing more" (-GM Deryka).
Bards are the tellers of stories and the keepers of knowledge; they know countless stories of legends and folklore, and they remember. This allows them to be adept at learning information about the areas they visit through numerous means -- local gossip, rumor, legends, folklore, superstitions. With the right training, a Bard can tune in to the lands, spirits, ancient calendars and <tt>RECALL</tt> what was.


===Bardic RECALL===
===[[Bardic Whistling]]===
Over the years Bards have developed several special techniques with whistling, from just being more expressive to being able to distract enemies with a piercing whistle. Rumor has it some Bards have also learned to effectively communicate via whistling.

== Enchantes ==
===[[Bardic Screams]]===
Many a story has been told of Bards who have mastered the control of their voice to a degree where it can be used as a weapon in battle. While many of these legendary techniques have been lost, there persist to this day stories of Bards vanquishing their foes with a defiant scream.
Bards use their skill with sound -- through their music skills -- to weave Elemental mana into magic songs called [[Definition of an Enchante|Enchantes]]. Enchantes fall under these four books: [[:Category:Ballads and Romances|Ballads and Romances]], [[:Category:Concertos and Sonatas|Concertos and Sonatas]], [[:Category:Nocturnes and Requiems|Nocturnes and Requiems]], and [[:Category:Allegros and Capriccios|Allegros and Capriccios]].


==== [[Definition of an Enchante]] ====
===[[Song Scrolls]]===
Bards also can memorize song scrolls containing lore from across Kermoria. A variety of shops from The Crossing to Aesry stock them.

[http://www.play.net/forums/messages.asp?forum=20&category=15&topic=16&page=1]:


===Showmanship===
"There has been much discussion and debate amongst bards regarding just what an enchante is. Is it like a spell, and composed of patterns and matrices? Or is it composed of music that is given life by magic?
Over the course of their career, Bards learn many techniques to aid them in performance. Among them are the ability to convincingly [[BLUFF|<tt>BLUFF</tt>]] their audience, or [[Slip|<tt>SLIP</tt>]] in some dazzling sleight of hand tricks. Bards have also been known to learn the art of [[ventriloquism]], throwing their voice onto props, and, if stories are to be believed, even other people.


'''[[Slip|Slip Ability]]:'''<br>
Both of these are true.
Gained at level 5 - Sleight of Hand with coins.<br>
Syntax: SLIP <person> COIN <ear|nose|mouth|wound> <easy/hard>


A little background on magic: Spells are composed of patterns and matrices.


'''[[Bluff|Bluff Abilities]]:'''
Pattern spells have a single effect that manifests, though the impact of that single effect is dependant upon the amount of mana that the mage is able to channel into the creation of the pattern itself. Stronger patterns could create more pronounced effects or longer durations of the effects involved.
BLUFF <player|item|critter>
BLUFF <player|critter> <option>
Options: emperor, sister, lanival, baron, merchant, sidhlot,
priest, swallow, glythtide, penguin
BLUFF <self>
BLUFF DODGE to dodge in combat.
BLUFF DISTRACT to gain a better chance at hiding.
BLUFF AMAZE to put on a charismatic show.
BLUFF DEAD to play dead. *** Be warned, this could get you killed! ***


===[[Segue ability|Segue]]===
Matrices are composed a pattern that serves as a template for a cascading sequence of ever more complex patterns, ones that manifest themselves as the mage is able to channel more mana through it. As the initial pattern grows stronger, it will spontaneously grow more complex, causing the effects of the spell itself to vary and grow.
Segue allows you to transition from one active cyclic spell to another, without preparation time and even while preparing a different spell.


===Bardic Magic===
This is, of course, a greatly simplified explanation. Still follow me, though?
Bards use both magic and their skill with sound to weave Elemental mana into their voice.


The Bardic spell tree requires 55 spell slots to master. Bards earn 76 spell slots at 150 which leaves experienced Bards plenty of room for Magic Techniques or Analogous Patterns spells. '''All magic guilds get a free magical feat at circle 2, and Bards get Raw Channeling as theirs.''' However, Bards also have this ability inherently at first circle at an increased attunement cost per pulse, so earning this feat effectively only eliminates that penalty for them.
Enchantes are examples of elementally-powered magical patterns and matrices created from the music that the bard performs. Music is often said to be mathematical in nature, and so it is. It can form patterns, whether simple or complex in nature, and so long as the bard has the necessary tools and skill, he or she should be able to sustain the pattern.


* [[Spell slot progressions|Bardic spell slots]]
Due to the inherent nature of music, enchantes will often have the power to eventually form matrices, or cascading patterns, as the music forming the matter for each one becomes increasingly more complex and colorful. Thus, as more skill is gained in the areas of both music and magic, additional effects from enchantes may become apparent to the performer utilizing them.

==Circle Requirements==
Enchantes have the potential to reach as far as the voice or song of a performing bard can be heard, or so quietly reiterated that they only affect the singer themself. Very often enchantes themselves merely amplify the music that conveys them, allowing the most powerful and subtle effects: Stirring one's blood to bring them prowess in combat, calming them into a peaceful sleep, or amplifying the skill they already possess by focusing their mind on a specific area of knowledge.

'''Hard skill requirements''' '''({{Skill|Performance|Performance}}''', '''{{Skill|Parry Ability|Parry Ability}}''') are listed in bold. These skills cannot count toward Nth skills, such as 1st Lore or 1st Weapon.
It is on the strength of music that the bard performs, and their control of elemental that they channel through these patterns that the special effects of an enchante are created. However, the effects of enchantes, in and of themselves, need not be musical -- music is merely the medium through which they are brought into being.


'''Soft skill requirements''' ({{Skill|Tactics|Tactics}}) can count toward your Nth skills.
Music itself, in the form of skillfully manipulated sound, has a strong hold over the elements. It may be of a frequency to cause sympathetic vibrations in the elements surrounding you. An example would be a deep bass note that rattles tin cans, or a high C note that shatters glass. The entire world around is subject to the vibrations coursing constantly through them, from the simplicity of speech to the glaring ferocity of a horn piercing the air, causing physical pain.
:Note: The following "mastery" skills never count toward Nth skill requirements, since they affect all or most of the skillset: {{Skill|Defending|Defending}}, {{Skill|Parry Ability|Parry Ability}}, {{Skill|Offhand Weapon|Offhand Weapon}}, {{Skill|Melee Mastery|Melee Mastery}}, {{Skill|Missile Mastery|Missile Mastery}}, and {{Skill|Primary Magic|Elemental Magic}}.


'''Nth skill requirements''' are met with your top-ranked skills out of the following list of eligible skills:
It is because of these things that some enchantes you will see (or hear) may also have spectacular elemental effects that reach throughout the room: The power to summon the fury of a storm, send objects into flame, or bring forth the earth itself to temple and rage. This combined with the subtle nature of enhanced music upon living beings gives bards both strength and power over any area of magic that they wish to become proficient in, and enough variety to aid them in whatever path in life they pursue" (-GM Deryka).

Bard Guild
Bard

Image copyright of Simutronics Corporation

Primary Skillset: Lore
Secondary Skillsets: Magic, Weapon
Tertiary Skillsets: Survival, Armor
Special Abilities: Recall, Playact, Enchantes
Mana Type: Elemental
Barbarian - Bard - Cleric - Commoner - Empath - Moon Mage

Necromancer - Paladin - Ranger - Thief - Trader - Warrior Mage

Masters of Music, and well schooled in a wide range of skills and lore, a Bard drinks in all he or she can of the happenings of the lands and uses it to their advantage. To attempt to define a Bard is to try to put order to the sands on the shore -- they are warriors, performers, wanderers, teachers, scholars... and much much more.

A boon to any adventuring group, their area-affecting magic can be instrumental to its survival and success. Be sure to bring extra libations, for a Bard's job is thirsty work.

About 180 years ago, a darkness fell upon the Guild with their near extermination by the Dragon Priests, silencing their voice and scattering their unity. The spirit of Music was reawakened by the selfless acts of Siryn -- and the voices of those who sang for her. Much has been rebuilt since the Guild doors were reopened, a new spirit and unity grows within that portents to rival and surpass what once was a proud and vibrant past.

Guild Hall Locations

Crossing
Considered by some the 'main' Guildhall for Bards, this renovated structure is home to the famed Bard Silvyrfrost. She maintains a renown roster of the highest circled Bards. (You can type DIR BARD for directions.)
Riverhaven
Rebuilt upon the location of its predecessor, the Riverhaven Guildhall stands tall with plenty of space for the Guild Leader Tasdrean, having assumed the mantle of leadership in the wake of Guild Leader Ezruh's departure. Tasdrean manages a renown roster keeping track of the most musical and academic of Bards. (You can type DIR BARD for directions.)
Shard
Sequestered in one of the city's many drinking establishments, the Guild Leader Macfrae tends to his cups as well as those Bards that pass by his table. Macfrae also tends to a renown roster of the most disciplined and hardiest of Bards.
Ratha
Located in the Theater District of the third tier of Ratha, the workshop is more of an office for repair work than a true Guildhall. Guild Leader Lileyew always has a ready smile for any Bards passing through. True to her nature, she keeps a renown roster of the most charismatic Bards she has met.
Aesry
The white sentinel is rumored to contain a large Bardic Guildhall, unfortunately access is currently unavailable. Among these rumours is a renown roster tracking those Bards most skilled in magical efforts.
Muspar'i
Located near the Heketha Theatre and the Street of Performers, the Guildhall is cared for by the Bard Leader Selinthesa's watchful eye. She includes in her gaze a renown roster of the Bards most skilled in the use of any weapon.
Hibarnhvidar
Found in Inner Hibarnhvidar. Also located in the Guildhall is Siryn's study, which is watched over by Guildleader Yaziyi. Despite being an artist at heart, he maintains a renown roster of the most well-rounded combatants among the guild. Included in his assessment is the Bard's ability to parry, evade, use a shield, and target lethal magics as well as their effectiveness with their most used weapon and type of armor.

Leadership

The Bard's Guild is lead by a Council. The Council is comprised of the sitting Guild Leaders with the True Bard D'Or as the Head.

Skillsets and Common Races

A bard's primary skillset is Lore. Magic and Weapon are secondary skillsets, with Survival and Armor as tertiary skills.

Bards break down into the following races:

Elven 50%
Human 18%
Prydaen 12%
Dwarven 9%
Gnome 1%

Crafting Affiliation

Guilded bards receive one free technique slot in the Tinkering discipline of the Engineering skill, one free technique slot in the Shaping discipline of the Engineering skill and one free technique slot in the Carving discipline of the Engineering skill.

See: Crafting

Guild Abilities

Vocal Technique

When anyone uses the SING, CHANT, or CHORUS commands, their vocal range is displayed (e.g., tenor, soprano). Anyone can check their own vocal range with PRACTICE VOICE.

Bards are able to change their own vocal range with skill in Vocals. They can check which ranges they can do with PRACTICE VOICE, and use PRACTICE VOICE <range> to change to a new range.

Instrumental Technique

Bards who keep their focus on their percussion, string and wind instruments can maintain a higher inspirational state, affording them a greater performing skill that can affect all aspects of their music.

PLAYACT

An advanced performance ability, PLAYACT allows a Bard to perform with greater effect and clarity for their audience.

RECALL

Bards are the tellers of stories and the keepers of knowledge; they know countless stories of legends and folklore, and they remember. This allows them to be adept at learning information about the areas they visit through numerous means -- local gossip, rumor, legends, folklore, superstitions. With the right training, a Bard can tune in to the lands, spirits, ancient calendars and RECALL what was.

Bardic Whistling

Over the years Bards have developed several special techniques with whistling, from just being more expressive to being able to distract enemies with a piercing whistle. Rumor has it some Bards have also learned to effectively communicate via whistling.

Bardic Screams

Many a story has been told of Bards who have mastered the control of their voice to a degree where it can be used as a weapon in battle. While many of these legendary techniques have been lost, there persist to this day stories of Bards vanquishing their foes with a defiant scream.

Song Scrolls

Bards also can memorize song scrolls containing lore from across Kermoria. A variety of shops from The Crossing to Aesry stock them.

Showmanship

Over the course of their career, Bards learn many techniques to aid them in performance. Among them are the ability to convincingly BLUFF their audience, or SLIP in some dazzling sleight of hand tricks. Bards have also been known to learn the art of ventriloquism, throwing their voice onto props, and, if stories are to be believed, even other people.

Slip Ability:
Gained at level 5 - Sleight of Hand with coins.
Syntax: SLIP <person> COIN <ear|nose|mouth|wound> <easy/hard>


Bluff Abilities: BLUFF <player|item|critter> BLUFF <player|critter> <option> Options: emperor, sister, lanival, baron, merchant, sidhlot, priest, swallow, glythtide, penguin BLUFF <self> BLUFF DODGE to dodge in combat. BLUFF DISTRACT to gain a better chance at hiding. BLUFF AMAZE to put on a charismatic show. BLUFF DEAD to play dead. *** Be warned, this could get you killed! ***

Segue

Segue allows you to transition from one active cyclic spell to another, without preparation time and even while preparing a different spell.

Bardic Magic

Bards use both magic and their skill with sound to weave Elemental mana into their voice.

The Bardic spell tree requires 55 spell slots to master. Bards earn 76 spell slots at 150 which leaves experienced Bards plenty of room for Magic Techniques or Analogous Patterns spells. All magic guilds get a free magical feat at circle 2, and Bards get Raw Channeling as theirs. However, Bards also have this ability inherently at first circle at an increased attunement cost per pulse, so earning this feat effectively only eliminates that penalty for them.
