{{Systems}}

The Bardic Music system provides bards with a '''variety''' of songs in addition to the two currently available to the class (the standard '''bard song''', and '''curse song''', if the feat was taken). There are '''nine songs''' in total, each with its own level and perform requirements. The lyrics to the songs can be found in '''Legendary Songbooks''': rare and valuable tomes that, once obtained, provide the means to unleashing powerful inspirational magic.

Bard songs typically affect all allies within hearing distance, and many of them become more powerful as the bard gains '''experience''' and masters '''performance'''.

Bard songs are affected by the '''Lingering Song''' and '''Lasting Inspiration''' feats. Lasting Inspiration increases the duration of a bard song by 50%, while Lingering Song adds an additional round to it.

Some songs are so taxing on a bard that they cannot be sung again until the bard has had a chance to recover energy for another performance. This period of time is known as a '''cooldown'''.
