Harmonics embodies all that is beautiful in music, from voice and instrument, brought together. Using the skill a bard may speed their allies, restore their [[health (statistic)|health]], and protect them from damage. Accomplished practitioners of this art can create multiple harmonics in one place, send them to other locations, or call them back with a word. Harmonics generally require use of one of the five [[bardic instruments]] - flute, lute, lyre, mandolin, and harp. For the more advanced effects, specialisation must be undertaken. Specialisation can be removed but this is a costly act. | Harmonics embodies all that is beautiful in music, from voice and instrument, brought together.

|detail=Use of the Aeternam permits the bard to 'store' up to twenty harmonics, no more than two of any kind, in the Place of Eternal Song (also called POES). Each attempt to store another harmonic in the POES has a limited chance to succeed, so many attempts may be required. Not every harmonic may be stored in the POES. The knowledge of which are storable, and which are not, is for the bard to discover.< | |detail=Use of the Aeternam permits the bard to 'store' up to twenty harmonics, no more than two of any kind, in the Place of Eternal Song (also called POES).
