The '''Percussions [[page type is::skill]]''' is trained by playing percussion-type musical instruments. They were created by the god [[Idon]].

This skill is learned by playing upon percussion instruments, ie: tambourines, bones and drums.

Some instruments require tools to be played, ie: bodhrans require tippers, drums require sticks.

[[Bard]]s use percussion instruments to play certain [[:Category:Bard Enchantes|enchante]]s and their skill with the instrument can affect their ability to perform the enchante properly.

Percussion instruments may also be played just to be played, and there are several mood and tone options available. Bards have extra options available to them for playing instruments that are not available to other guilds.

Bards and non-Bards of sufficient Percussions skill can increase the spirit regeneration of all those in the room by flawlessly playing a minuet (or higher) on any percussion instrument.

[[Cleric]]s and [[Paladin]]s can gain [[devotion]] or [[soul state]] respectively by playing a psalm or hymn for an [[Immortal]] in a holy place.

==Training==
The best experience per time ratio is achieved by finding an instrument/song combination that is played "with only the slightest hint of difficulty."

==Instruments==
Percussion instruments are played by striking, scraping or shaking them. Some require special tools such as tippers to play, while others are simple enough to play in one hand. Similarly, some have skins that require tuning and can be broken, necessitating replacement before playing again.

:*bodhran
:*bones
:*castanets
