Line 1: Line 1:
Those with the skill of '''Voicecraft''' belong to the [[Bard]] [[class]] and are able to put their voices to far greater use than for simple entertainment or communication. Bards who [[skill levels|transcend]] the skill gain the [[:Category:Abilities|ability]] to whistle for a songbird to assist them in battle.
Voicecraft is the skill centred on using the voice, with or without instrumental accompaniment, to create various effects to aid yourself or those you wish to favour, or to afflict your enemies.<br><br>Chant, sing, or recite your way to fame and glory as you shatter crystal forests, sing down shields, protect yourself from damage, or free yourself from various forms of binding - all through the power of Voicecraft.<br><br>A unique feature of Voicecraft abilities is that they do not use or require you to have normal equilibrium or balance. They work on their own kind of balance called "voice balance."


===Abilities in Voicecraft===
The '''Voicecraft''' skill is available to members of the [[Bard]] [[class]], along with [[Swashbuckling]] and [[Harmonics]].
