By nature, a bard will learn many different skills throughout his travels. Thus, although his strength lies in other areas, he makes a proficient fighter. All bards are accomplished singers, chanters, or vocalists, and can play a musical instrument of their choice. The bard has the ability to influence reactions of groups (if they are not preparing to attack), altering the general mood of the listeners. He can try to soften their mood, or make it uglier. The means by which he may attempt this, range from a fiery speech to a haunting melody. The music, poetry, and stories of a bard can also be inspirational, rallying friends and allies. Since bards learn a little bit of everything in their travels, they can read and write in their native tongue, and are certainly able to pick up a second language.
