[QUOTE="ProtonZero, post: 5979676, member: 6697947"] "Even while using bardic music that doesn't require concentration, a bard cannot cast spells, activate magic items by spell completion (such as scrolls), or activate magic items by magic word (such as wands)." Power chord enables [i]casting[/i] a spell in exchange for a use of bardic music, which means it cannot be used while performing bardic music. "... the bard may cast 1st level bard spells as a swift spell (see Feats)." This indicates that the spell is cast identically to using the feat. If the power chord description instead said "the bard may cast 1st level bard spells as a swift action," then it might be different. I actually took a stab at creating a hypertext version of the Trailblazer Open Game Content. I unfortunately only got so far, but as of this writing you can find the action points, character creation, and character classes chapters at [url=http://www.click-where.com/trailblazer/]Trailblazer OGC[/url].
