- Immune to sleep and other similar magical effects
- Low-light vision: (can see twice as far as humans in low-light
conditions)
- Elven blood
- +1 bonus to Listen, Search, Spot
(OUTSIDER TRAITS)
- Damage Reduction 20/+1
- Darkvision 60'
- Immune to effects that specify "humanoid"
- vulnerable to effects that specify "outsiders"
(FEATS)
- Improved Initiative: +4 on Initiative rolls
- Gate Sense: Can detect the presence of Gates within 30 feet.
- Spell Penetration: +2 on level checks to defeat Spell Resistance
- Leadership: allows followers and a cohort
- Lingering Song: If your use bardic music to inspire confidence,
inspiure courage or inspire greatness, the effects last twice
as long as they otherwise would.
- Requiem: You can extend your mind-affecting bardic music
and virtuoso performance effects so that they influence even the undead.
All such effects on the undead are at half normal duration.
- Subsonics: You can play so softly that opponents do not
notice it, yet your allies still gain the benefits. Similarly, you
can effect opponents within range with your music, and unless they can see
you or have other means of detection, they cannot determine the source of
the effect.
(BARD ABILITIES)
- Bardic Music 10 times/day
Inspire Courage: Allies receive
a +2 morale bonus to saves vs. charm and fear effects, and
a +1 morale bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. It takes effect
after an ally has heard the singing for 1 full round; after that it lasts
as long as the singing continues, plus 5 rounds after the singing can no longer
be heard. While singing, the bard cannot fight, use spell-completion
items, or command-word-activated magic items.
Countersong: Each round of the countersong,
the bard makes a perform check. Any creature within 30' of
the bard (including the bard himself) who is affected by a sonic or language-dependent
magical attack may use the bard's Perform check in place of his saving throw
if, after rolling the save, the Perform result proves to be better.
The bard may keep up the countersong for 10 rounds.
Fascinate: Can fascinate a creature within
90' that can see, hear and pay attention to the bard (and which the bard
can see). There is a Will Save equal to the bard's Perform check.
Success means the bard cannot attempt to fascinate that creature
for another 24 hours. Failure means the creature will sit quietly
and listen to the bard for up to 1 round/level. While fascinated,
the target's Spot and Listen checks are at -4. Any potential
threat (such as an ally of the bard moving behind the creature) allows a
second save against a new Perform check. Any obvious threat immediately
ends the effect.
Inspire Competence: Cause an ally to gain +2
on skill checks while listening to the bard
Suggestion: Allows the Bard to cast suggestion
against a creature who is already fascinated. (This
doesn't count agains the bard's daily limit on bardic music abilities.)
Will save is DC13 + Cha. modifier.
Inspire Greatness: One ally within 30'
gain 2 temporary Hit Dice (2d10 hit points), a +2 competence bonus to attacks,
and a +1 competence bonus to Fortitude saves.
- Bardic Knowledge: chance of knowing revelant info about
notable people, legendary items, or noteworthy places. Check is at
the Bard's level + Int. modifier.
(RIDER OF THE FLAME ABILITIES)
- Flame-touched (mastery): Can set any part of his own body
on fire, with no ill-consequence to self.
- Natural Armor Bonus: +5
- Skin afire: 15 point damage reduction against fire.
- Screech of the Phoenix: All opponents within 30' make a
Will Save DC25 or be slowed for one round.
- Fly: 1/day, sprouting fiery wings
- Added Spells: Prot. vs. Evil, Gust of Wind, Fireball, Burning
Hands, Flame Strike, Fire Seeds added to bardic spell list.
- Phoenix's Wrath: One round after Rider goes unconscious,
a 10d6 fireball erupts around his body.
- Fury of Rebirth: Upon death, a Firestorm rages around
the Rider's body.
- Firestorm 1/week.

Magic Items
Conductor's Baton of Amplification: Allows the user to project
his voice at greatly increased volume. (DC for Listen Checks is halved.)
Figurine of Wondrous Power: Onyx Dog "Angus": When commanded,
this statuette changes into a creature with the same properties as a war
dog, except that it is endowed with an Intelligence score of 8, can communicate
in Common, and has exceptional olfactory and visual abilities. (It has the
scent ability and adds +4 to its Spot and Search checks.) It
has darkvision (range 60 feet) and it can see invisible. An onyx dog
can be used once per week for up to 6 hours. It obeys only its owner.
Magic Tinderbox: Always lit; easy light!
Cloak Pin of Comprehend Languages: Wearer is constantly
affected as if by the spell.
Clasp of the Crown Eternal: A cloak pin that can be used
to signal anyone else also wearing a Clasp. It conveys the identity,
direction, and approximate distance to the person signalling. The Clasp
doesn't occupy a magic item slot.
Tuning Forks of the Planes: Can open a gate to Limbo,
Shadow, Mt. Celestia, Pandemonium or the Astral Plane. Can be a normal
gate, or a sucking gate (as per the Cubic Gate
in the DMG).
Wand of Wonder: command word "ohmygoshmygollyhubbahubbagygax"
(lent to Agar)
Ring of Incontinence: Target creature must make a Fort save
DC 15 or lose control of its bowels and bladder. Failure means messiness,
with lost actions for several rounds, huge concentration checks, and big
penalties to social skills like diplomacy, bluff, and intimidate. Success
still causes urgency, but not quite as immediate, with combat and skill penalties
as the target becomes distracted.
Violin "Faire Song": Can cast Otto's Irresistable Dance
1/week. Takes 1 full round to cast, as a summon spell.
Bag of Holding: Type II -- 500 lbs, 70 cubic feet
Bag of Holding: Type I
Scroll: antimagic field
Scroll: dispel magic
Rod of Viscous Globules: Ranged touch attack for Tanglefoot
Bag equivalent. Usable 3/day.
Shadow Opal: single use item of spell turning.
Pipes of the Sewers: These wooden pipes appear ordinary,
but if the possessor learns the proper tune, he can attract 1d6x10 dire rats
(01-80 result on d%) or 3d6x10 normal rats (81-100) if either or both are
within 400 feet. For each 50-foot distance the rats have to travel, there
is a 1-round delay. The piper must continue playing until the rats appear,
and when they do so, the piper must make a Perform (pan pipes) check (DC
10). Success means that they obey the piper’s telepathic commands so long
as he continues to play. Failure indicates that they turn on the piper. If
for any reason the piper ceases playing, the rats leave immediately. If they
are called again within a day, the Perform check is against DC 15.
If the rats are under the control of another creature, add the HD
of the controller to the Perform check DC. Once control is assumed, another
check is required each round to maintain it if the other creature is actively
seeking to reassert its control.
Dust of Feather Falling: An application of this will cause
the recipient to be affected as with the feather fall spell for 5
rounds. 3 applications.
Veritas: adds +10 to Perform checks; creates Silent Images
of song's subject; spontaneously generates the emotion
spell on all who hear it. Also has other, unknown powers.
Blast Harp: Fires a 40 HP blast of sonic energy (ranged touch
attack) 2/day, but one of these blasts only affects objects.
Mirror of Vanity: +2 to Charisma while on your person
Ring of Spell Immunity: Currently set to silence
Nymph Orb: A candle that casts mass charm when lit,
with a save DC of 23. It burns rendered faerie fat. Yuck.
Celestial Battlecloak: +5 deflection bonus to AC.
It's fireproof and radiates good. Woven from molten sunlight.
Bracers of Armor +2 (+7 near flame-using creatures) Contains
the fire spirit Ixitarthrissitcharrl.
Third Eye (Deception): +10 to Bluff checks
Amulet of Intellect +2
Torc of Combat Precognition: +1 Insight Bonus to AC, usable
2 hours/day (crafted by Tom-Tom)
Quaal's Feather Token (Anchor): A token useful to moor a
craft in water so as to render it immobile for up to one day.
Folding Boat "The Bloddy Grail." Opens when made wet;
closes on the command "Bathed in blood, I close the Grail."
Ring of Dragon's Breath: Manifests the psionic power breath
of the dragon 1/day. 50' Cone, 11d4 damage, Reflex Save DC d20+9
for half damage
Rapier of Lignification, Adroit Striking and Reaving, "Autumnblade":
Crit damage increased to x3, no confirm needed on crits, confirmation
needed for Lignification. On confirmed crit, Fort Save DC = damage,
or opponent polymorphed into a tree. This sword is made entirely
of wood.
Shara Ball: Can be activated to produce a self-aware
replica of Sharala Clearwater. Said replica will, if asked nicely,
cast one spell from her repertoire, after which she disappears. The
Ball then goes inactive for 1 day/level of spell cast. Spells include
control undead and chain lightning.
Wand of Fumbling, disguised as a spyglass:
adds +4 to Spot checks over long distances. Casts Ray of Enfeeblement
(but affects DEX, not STR), 1d6+1 points, Fort Save DC 11.
Glasses of Hindsight: Allow the wearer to see what
has happened in a location up to 1 week previous. Takes 1 minute per
hour observed. Also has "fast-forward" and "slow time" capabilities.

the way the flipper chooses.
Bone Rabbit: Allows one die to be rerolled. Only
works once.
Vest of Health: +4 to CON.
Wand of Light: 49 charges
War Bell: Acts as a Wand of Sonic Fireballs,
5d6 damage. 30 charges remaining.

into the crystal, the user may add that spell temporarily to his list of
castable spells. 20 charges
