The Bard Base spell circle is unique in that the magic is actually manipulated through a bard's singing. Consequently, all bardic magic is sung as opposed to cast. Bardic vocals manifest as a hybrid of both mental and elemental spheres, which is also a unique blend. Spells in this cirlce consist of a variety of offensive, defensive, and utilitous purposes all designed around the needs of a bard.
Renewing Continuous Songs
Spellsongs do not simply consume mana once per initiation as most other spells. They cost the regular initial expenditure of mana, and then a renewal cost upon expiration in order to keep the magic going. The renewal cost can vary based on the bard's level, Influence, Logic, and Bard Base ranks. Mental Lore, Telepathy increases the duration of spellsongs before renewal is required by 2 sec per rank.
- SING STATUS displays which songs are currently being sung, and an approximation of their remaining duration.
- RENEW ALL will renew all of the songs at once.
- RENEW {spell#|mnemonic} will renew an individual song.
- STOP SINGING to cease all spellsongs.
- STOP SINGING {spell#|mnemonic} to cease a specific song.
