Bard is a core class that casts magic to manipulate the enemy.
Contents
From the Rulebook
Bardic history is mostly tied in with the early oral tradition of the druids and Norse skalds. Medieval Europe does give us a case of actual singing knights, many of them female, from the independent French province of Aquitaine before it was crushed by the Papacy.
Examples:
Sarafin, William Shakespeare, Alan O’Dale, Homer, Scheherazade, Circe, Bragi, Snorri Sturluson, Taliesin
Garb:

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| All | 4 | subtracts from magic points | shield (subtracts from magic points) | - | Bardic charm (see below), Magic-user (see below) |
Bardic Charm:
Some monsters may be immune to the control school, but not bardic charm. Bardic charm is any control magic that is cast by a bard (even those bought with Voice).
