#51 Mime Bard variant Mechanical Changes: All spells no longer require verbal components, nor do bardic music abilities. Only those that can see the mime can benefit from bardic music effects.

Well, now, that is the question... :) G'day Ash, certainly has been a while hasn't it? Good to see some familiar faces (or avatars...) still post here.
