The Wild Bard

Thrasymachus

It seems like a natural bard kit, no? More obvious than wild mages, perhaps, given the tendency of bards to dabble in the arcane without proper training and discipline.

I already have an image of a FR version of Johnny Rotten screaming "Anarchy in the B-Gate" whilst letting loose a wild surge.

Only if Bard Song counts as a spell for triggering Wild Surges.

Maybe their bard song just *is* Nahal's Reckless Dweomer?

This sounds like the post 3rd Edition bards who had natural magic like a sorcerer does.
This sounds like a fun character

Aren't Bard Songs nerfed enough as it is?

Not really considering it as a nerf, but as fun for all the times it's active...

Ha, continuous wild surges. I dig it.

Huh, so this thread wasn't about kinky Bards who enjoy a wild nightlife? Bummer.

Wild Surge: Mosh Pit (everyone within range must make a save vs. spell or start randomly banging their heads together).

:-D

I like that idea. Maybe, for a Bard wild surges could be a table of random buffs/Jester could receive random debuffs to enemies.

I think @Foggy may appreciate this

Hell yeah! Iron Maiden FTW, with Eddie no less! Thanks @booinyoureyes
The other guy/gal/whatever is definitely not the result of a wild surge. Nature works in mysterious ways.
