Through willing agreement with a creature of unnaturally blinding beauty you have looked fully upon their visage and been blinded by experience. In return you have discovered a supernatural muse which inspires creations, music, and silver-tongued words beyond compare.
Benefits
- As long as one hand is free to play a bardic instrument you gain Blindsight to a radius of 25 feet.
- Your Bardic Inspiration now affects all allies within the 25 foot radius of your Blindsight ability.
- You learn two additional spells from the spell list of your Muse (if available).
Penalties
- You permanently gain the Blinded Condition.
- The Blindsight ability only functions if you constantly play an instrument to observe its echos and tonal differences on the environment around you.
- Loud noises and thunder damage interferes with your Blindsight. Upon exposure make a Constitution Check with either DC15 or DC10+Damage (whichever is greater). Failure results in a loss of Blindsight until the end of your next turn.
Those desiring to regain normal sight must voluntarily release the mental image of their muse. This causes a loss of all Muse benefits, and the character is still blind until sight is restored with a casting of Lesser Restoration or greater effect.
