Lexi Bard Songs and Perks: DJ Mix Tape

Not every Bard is stuck to a single genre, so here is a variety of Perks and Songs that might appeal to a bard.

90’s Witch by Michał Sałata


PERKS

Perk: Can’t Touch This– Bonus to AC equal to number of remaining MD.

Perk: Red Right Hand- You deal an additional amount of fire damage equal to your remaining MD for the day.


Perk: Overtone Singing– You can keep up the effects of two songs simultaneously, however you get a Bad Vibe on a roll of 1-3 instead of just a 1.


Perk: Dirge- Any morale checks rolled while you are playing a song have a penalty equal to your remaining MD.

Perk: Back Up Dancers- If another member of the party do nothing but dance to your music on their turn, they can nullify a Bad Vibe. 


Perk: Circular Breathing- You only lose the intensity of a song if hit for max damage on a die.

Perk: Subsonic Vibrations– Your music can affect and be perceived even by deaf creatures and isn’t affected by magical silence.

Perk: Rick Roll– You can disguise your song as any other song but on a bad vibe it immediately evokes extreme revulsion in all those who hear it.

Perk:MONTAGE-  Once per week expend all of your Music Dice to retroactively have completed training or preparation for “just such an occasion.” You may either apply Dice bonus to any check or have [sum] GP worth of equipment relevant to the task at hand. At 4 MD you may also condense the time of a single scene (a single combat, travel, or similar event) and make the outcome’s success or failure a 50/50 coin flip.
