New Bardic Miracles (Holy Songs)

The Bard, while a versatile character class, is limited in the number of Holy songs he has in his

repertoire. These new Bardic Holy Songs will expand that selection. A Bardic song does not

necessarily need to be a song per se, it can be a psalm, hymn, musical only piece, or poem, the

actual holy prayer is embedded in the action by that particular Bard at the time of casting. A

Bard may perform how they choose to affect the miracle, but concentration on the prayer is

the same regardless and the casting of a Bardic Holy Song does not allow any other action other

than normal walking or simple movements. Other actions, such as running, fighting etc, will

need to be adjudicated by the RAC as the situation develops.

Song of Accuracy

FP Cost: 4

Affect: Self or Other

Distance: 10 per PF level

Duration: 1 round per PF level

Description: This song allows you or an ally a moment of great martial ability, guiding a weapon to strike

home with precision. The next Attack made (before the duration runs out) is granted a +5 bonus. If a 20

is rolled then it is an automatic kill. If no Attack is made then the effect is wasted.

Song of Awe

FP Cost: 6Affect: Other


Duration: Instant

Description: Through your song you proclaim the majesty and power of your faith. The target is

overcome with its power and is staggered. If the target fails the Save vs Miracles, it will continue to be

staggered until a save is made or the Bard wills the effect to end.

Song of Eloquence

FP Cost: 2

Affect: Other


Duration: 1 round per PF levelDescription: This song provides a fascinating story of grace love, causing the target to do nothing but

listen. The target is so fascinated that they do not take notice of anything that is taking place around

them. If anything causes the target any DAM then they get a Save vs Miracles at +3 to break free from

the songs hold.

holster, on a table or in a weapons rack etc. Anyone who attempts to draw the weapon must spend an

extra round trying to overcome the miracle. The target must make a successful STR roll with a -1 per PF

of the Bard in order to break the weapon free. This miracle will also work if the weapon is a natural

weapon, such as a claw or tail, but still only affects one arm/claw/tail, mouth etc. The weapon isinstantly free when the duration ends.

Song of Protection
