After centuries of isolation, the Ru'atin Peri'el agreed to teach Bards some of what they had preserved of the ancient art of using the voice as both a weapon and a means to focus themselves to accomplish amazing feats. Such an action is not without its price, however. The scream draws from your own inner reserve of strength, and using it without sufficient cause may leave you too drained to use it or other abilities when you truly do need them
