Spellsong (Feat): Difference between revisions

You can blend the power of your performance and spellcasting.

Prerequisites: Bard 1

Benefit: You can incorporate the casting of a bard spell with the action of initiating a Bardic Performance. To do this, you increase the action required to initiate the Bardic Performance as described in the bulleted list below, and choose a spell with a casting time of no greater than a Standard Action. By doing so, you initiate the Bardic Performance and cast the spell at the same time.

If your Bardic Performance requires a Standard Action to initiate, activating Spellsong requires a Full Attack Action (a standard action + a move action).
If your Bardic Performance requires a Move Action to initiate (when you have at least 6 levels of the Bard class), activating Spellsong requires a Standard Action (or the first attack in a full attack action).
If your Bardic Performance requires a Swift Action to initiate (when you have at least 11 levels of the Bard class), activating Spellsong requires an Attack Action (a standard action, or any attack in a full attack action).

Spellsong can only be used when you first initiate a Bardic Performance. It cannot be used with a performance you are sustaining from a previous round.

-'''Prerequisites''': Cha 13, bardic performance class ability, able to cast 1st-level spells.
+* If your Bardic Performance requires a [[Standard Action]] to initiate, activating Spellsong requires a [[Full Attack Action]] (a standard action + a move action).
+* If your Bardic Performance requires a [[Move Action]] to initiate (when you have at least 6 levels of the Bard class), activating Spellsong requires a [[Standard Action]] (or the ''first'' attack in a full attack action).

-'''Benefit''': You can conceal the activity of casting a bard spell by masking it in a performance. As a full round action, you may combine casting of a spell with initiating your Bardic Performance stance. Observers must make a Perception or Sense Motive check opposed by your Perform check to realize you are also casting a spell. The spell is cast in this action regardless of the normal casting time.
-At 7th level, combining a spell with a Bardic Performance (now a move action to initiate) casts the spell and initiates the song as a standard action.
