Bard

The Bard class within Unforgotten Realms Live is notable for being a support and utility caster with the ability to deceive or manipulate enemies. Whether controlling with Charm or amplifying spells with Double Down, the Bard is living proof that actions can be louder than words, or in the Bard's case, lyrics.

Abilities

Borrow							1	File:Bard Borrow.png
Swap this card with any of your allies cards, and use said ability. If the cost of that ability is more than the cost of Borrow, you must pay that cost as well. When borrowing an ability you must say "Yoink" or said ability will fail.
Charm			5			Combat	3	File:Bard Charm.png
Take a selfie of yourself and post it to the social media platform of your choice. Once this has been done you may attempt to charm a target. If successful you control their actions on their turn until they break free.
Disguise	Yes						3	File:Bard Disguise.png
Change the voice of your character. You may take on the shape of any creature or race until you stop doing the voice, in which case the magic of the spell breaks and you are returned to normal.
Double Down					Yes		3	File:Bard Double Down.png
Proclaim that you wish to double something. Damage, size, the effect of a spell. If the host deems this acceptable, roll a die. Should you succeed, said something is doubled. Should you fail, you take 3 damage and are shamed.
Lullaby			10			Combat	3	File:Bard Lullaby.png
Create an impromptu song to sing to the table that relates to the events currently unfolding. If your song should impress the Game Master, you may put all enemies who hear it to sleep.

Former Abilities

These abilities are either retired, or removed because of special circumstances.

Cheers

Everyone at the table takes a drink. For the next round of combat, players do not have to drink when taking damage

• Later replaced by Charm, this ability was specifically made for the Dank Dungeons and Dragons campaign, when drinks were used in place of stamina drain.

Trivia

• There has been a Bard in almost every campaign. Deadbones utilized their abilities in the non-cannon Dank Dungeons and Dragons campaign as well as the Roamin's Band of Thieves campaigns. Jake Kaufman chose this class in The Nuren Campaign. Jakelad was a bard in The Jewel of the Dingo Isles campaign although he was an NPC for the party and therefore was portrayed by Rob. However there was no Bard in the Porc Hunters Campaign.
