Bard Spells

Chanting - Bard spells often come with a roleplay component described as 'Chanting', this requires the player to describe, in detail, the effect they are hoping to achieve with the spell for the duration of the spell (e.g a description of the illusion they are conjuring or the weapon they have summoned), often the spell will only last as long as the caster continues speaking. This is not interrupted by making or taking damage calls as long as the chant continues.
