Description
- A character with this spell active can pick up any musical instrument (defined as any object that was designed to create pleasing sounds) and treat it as if it were their own for the duration of the spell. This substitute instrument is treated in all ways as the bard's actual instrument until the spell expires.
- In addition, once during the duration of the spell, the bard may add 1d4 points of damage to a single Harmony attack they make, of the same damage type as Harmony inflicts (typically Sonic (energy, common)). This damage improves by an additional +1d4 per 2 bard levels, to a maximum of 5d4 at 10th level. The bonus damage can only be used once per casting of the spell.
- This spell lays an arcane charge on its target(s), depending on the caster who is casting the spell. If the targets are something other than you or another creature (such as an object or area), the spell lays an arcane charge on you, the caster. Targets which already have an arcane charge present must choose which to keep if the new spell has the same charge type. Only one arcane charge can ever be present on a target at a time.
