Anything can be a weapon, and better yet, anything can be an instrument, as long as it makes noise that you can control in a way it could count as an instrument, so theoretically you could use the enemy by just throwing something at them which makes them make noise, and you could theoretically blow up every enemy by just making them say ouch or something else. Even mayonnaise is an instrument by this logic.

Well that's good that I didn't find a way around it

Ehmmm, then discuss me that, how can Swords be an Instrument ???
As far as I know, if the performance check fails, if the weapon is bladed or have stings, you can receive damage by this failure. It's a risky ""rule"" ... but if you like it, then it's fine.

Hold the sword with the blade pointed down. Hit the blade with a small metal rod. ✨music✨
