[QUOTE="Set, post: 3396788, member: 41584"] I did this in my Scarred Lands campaign. The party ended up fighting a group of Asaatthi lizardfolk, who had some dwarven slaves they used as cannon fodder. The dwarves had been dosed up with an alchemical solution that acted like weak Barbarian's Rage (but was killing them), and behind the Fighters and Druid (and his Dire Monitor companion) was a 'priest' who was exhorting his followers from a prayer-book. His class was Bard, but he used Perform (oratory) and Knowledge (religion), as well as Craft (alchemy) skill to boost himself and his 'party.' For a knight-commander, some sort of flag or standard could be used to rally the troops. For an inspiring priest, a prayer book or holy incense censer or something. Musical instruments are totally unnecessary. If the 'Bard' wants to base his 'inspiration' off of his advanced knowledge of mystical computation / arithomancy, giving his allies precise instructions in where to strike and when to dodge, I'm fine with that. Flavor trumps all. [/QUOTE]
