[QUOTE="Lord Pendragon, post: 1716561, member: 707"] It's been made clear that dance is being used for Bardic Music by the original poster and, after having stated the RAW, I didn't feel it necessary to continue with it for the original poster's purposes. But if we're discussing dance as a form of Bardic Music (the original poster already having gotten what he needed and left. :p) I would not allow it. Or rather, I would make it disadvantageous enough that I don't think a bard would want to use it. Bardic Music, in my mind, is a continual effect. Your allies simply cannot be continually watching you dance while they're fighting. So while I would allow a bard to use it if she chose, each ally would be treated as if bardic music had ended (thus starting the 5 round countdown) on their first action after the bard's. And they'd have to spend a full round watching the bard to restart the countdown. [/QUOTE]
