Subject: RE: Philosophy behind the Bard class


One song I have always thought would be fun is a song with effects similiar
to the AD&D spell confusion. What this spell did was cause a monster to
either: frenzy on the nearest player/NPC, frenzy on the nearest NPC, stand
around looking confused, wander off and forget about the party, no effect at
all. Not the greatest combat song but it would be great for dispersing
trains :)
