""A Bard's life can be that of a soliditory one, alone on the road, traveling from tavern to tavern, getting by on what coin they can earn, con or steal from their audience or it can be one full of friends and family, a star among many who flocked to the Bard's musical talent and wit. Some Bards, however, travel with a constant companion, a dark entity that lurks behind them, ever watching, ever present and ever waiting for the perfect moment to join in with the Bard's performance. These entities are shadows and they bring with them dark and powerful abilities." Product Description: A new Bard College option that opens up the door to a unique way to perform. With this college a bard can perform magic without a musical instrument. Additionally they can charm their own shadow into coming alive and dancing with them. The shadow can be a deadly ally on the battlefield, a near invisible scout able to sneak through the smallest of gaps and even augment your spell casting." [Author Summary]
