Song of Power
Available to Bard
Type Verbal (Non-Offensive)
Range Self
Incantation “I sing a song of power”
Chant “Song of Power” OR the caster may perform.
Effects Chant Effect:
  • Caster is affected as per Rest. They may chant without breaking the Rest and may use Innate without breaking this chant.
  • Other players that are resting within 20ft of the caster may count their rest at double-time. However Confidence, Innate, and Revitalize do not benefit from the increased Resting rate.
  • If the caster's Rest or chant is interrupted, the effects of Song of Power immediately end.
Other Details
  • Song of Power does not affect the caster's resting speed.
  • If the caster chooses to perform, their performance is the chant and must meet all the requirements for chants. The caster must also do their best to avoid confusion on the battlefield by declaring that they are using Song of Power to potential aggressors or anyone who might be confused. It should be clear whether someone is performing for Song of Power or just for the fun of it.
  • The effects of multiple Songs of Power do not stack; however two players singing Song of Power together will allow each other to count at double-time.


Extra Clarifications

Any additional clarifications about this ability will be listed below. To request a clarification, please visit the Amtgard V9 Discord server.

  • 'Double-time' means counting two seconds per second. You can count by twos (2, 4, 6, 8...), or count twice as fast. As long as it's no more than 2 per second, whatever makes it easy for you.



Trivia
  • Song of Power was introduced in Amtgard V8 (2014).
