Bards wield the ability to conjure visions, and influence people around them by channeling the magic of their voice or music. Bards may be employed in a number of different areas such as storytellers, actors, musicians and artists. They can serve as information gatherers, which makes them ideal adventurers. Whilst bards are not true warriors they can hold their own in a fight and they have developed their own magics that are weaved by voice and harmony. Certain bard spells require the caster to chant after their vocalisation. This means that if they are hit during their chanting it will stop the spell in question in the same way as being hit during vocalisation does. Targets will only be affected by a bards spells as long as they can hear the bard.
