[RPM] Bardic Song
Here's a little something I cooked up for a campaign idea in a proto-Celtic world:

Re: [RPM] Bardic Song
Can you create charms or conditionals of any sort with this style?

Yes. They have to be made using the proper tree, though (Tree Lore is another part of the campaign; see Celtic Myth pp. 96-103 or Thaumatology pp. 42-47).

I think this is very well done. I like it a lot and may use it at some point if that's okay?

As I said, feel free. Although you may want to wait if some of the Hidden Masters of RPM (like Ghostdancer or PK) chimes in. There may be some horrible bugs hidden in the system.

Re: [RPM] Bardic Song
None that I see; this looks good. I'd suggest folding the two 40% modifiers into a single "Magery variant" to discourage players from thinking they can add new modifiers on their own, but that's just my thinking as a fellow GM.

Re: [RPM] Bardic Song
This is a really cool idea! And one which I'm actually currently exploring for my fantasy campaign - though it's not Celt-inspired. Nice job, dude. :-)
