'''Bards''' are a profession of singers, dancers, and performers that specialize in the magic created by the sound of music. Bardic magic is elemental and mental in nature, and bards are [[semi]] professions that are effective in both the use of magic and the use of weaponry.


Bards have the ability to perform [[loresinging]], which can divine the special properties of items. In some cases, loresongs may bring out a story from a particular item, often called a [[loresong]] itself.
