A '''Loresong''' is a story associated with an item that can only be observed by a bard's [[loresinging]] to it. It is not a very common property on items, though many items that came from the [[Hunt for History]] have stories, and therefore loresongs, attached to them. |

A '''Loresong''' is a [[bard]]ic ability allowing a singer to divine the properties of an item with the sound of his voice. Some items will simply tell you its properties while others have a specific story attached to them that can only be observed through a bard's loresong. |
|||
Different items have different amounts of difficulty to obtain the information from. In order to increase a loresong's strength and ability to divine a loresong from an item, various verses and rhyme schemes can be used to obtain the loresong. Specifically, two-line loresongs with no rhymes are less powerful than two-line verses with a rhyme scheme. And, a four-line verse with a rhyme scheme is even more powerful. Rhymes must be words that rhyme by spelling, such as the infamous hand/land rhyme. However, more and floor, though they rhyme when spoken aloud, they do not count as rhymes for the purpose of loresongs. |

Additionally, if certain keywords are used in a loresong, you can obtain certain bits of information from the item. |
