Let's say there is a bad guy, or even a Monarch himself! So he is being a bit too annoying and he doesn't like your music. So, how about you mock him? That's right! You have an ability down left of your screen! Just click it(you have to be near the target to choose it). Here is the list of things you can might to each race when using it:
Human Mockery
"Your mother was a Rous, and your father smelled of jacksberries!"
"What are you going to do for a face when the troll wants his arse back?!"
"I pass wind at thy general vacinity!"
"That's a face not even Eora could love!"
"I shall ne'er desist from thee, nor shall I ever disappoint thee much~"
"Your brain is like a hardtack after a long voyage!"
"Look, look how terrible they are!"
Elf Mockery
"As graceful as a drunken mole, I see!"
"I've fought zads more fierce than you!"
"You're making this so easy, I'm losing confidence in myself... barely!"
"OHH-HOH-HOH-HOH-HOH!"
"Uncultured churls, barely worth my words!"
Dwarf Mockery
"If yer mind was as sharp as yer ears, we wouldn't be in this mess!"
"Ye kick softer than a newborn saiga!"
"Make it quick, dullard! T'is happy hour in the tavern!"
"Ohh, is the milk drinker gonna cry?"
"Ye couldn't dent a grain a sand with a pick from Malum!"
Tiefling Mockery
"Oh wow, everyone, look at this fool with two left feet!"
"You're not worth a wheat grain of what I can do!"
"Good job Slowpoke Rodriguez, you almost had me! Almost!"
"Come on, entertain me a little longer!"
"Dance with the devil and win a prize!"
"Your imperfect body could never match the fires I was forged on."
"You're in for a world of hurt, impudent one."
"Your name shall be stricken down from the annals of history."
"I couldn't sing your praises even if I were forged to!"
"What manner of blabbering creecher art thou?"
"Dost thou even hoist?"
Dark Elf Mockery
"Hah! the air above must have dulled your wits!"
"You're as threatening as a candle in the dark."
"Keep swinging, it's almost adorable!"
"Oh my, You're not a complete idiot, some parts are obviously missing!"
"Even a mushroom in the Underdark has more grace than you."
"Do you even know how to fight, or do you just flail and hope for a hit?"
Half-Orc Mockery
"Barrel-sharp, the wit on you."
"Come closer, i will slap the shit out of you."
"Ah, Fuck off, You sack of shit!"
"You swing well, but miss terribly!"
"I'll bite your legs down!"
Rackshari Mockery
"You're terrible! Look, look how terrible they are!"
"A gift for a loathsome neighbour."
"I desire that we become better strangers!"
" Behold, the fool of fools."
"Behold, a most noisy cuck!
Kobold Mockery
"Idiots always talk alot!"
"A tear in your eye, ha!"
"You stink, whitesoil!"
"Every word a spit!"
Don't do it for no raisin though, it's not cool!
those automatic mockeries are said when you are in combat mode, by default, you are able to write your own mockery.
As a Bard, you have a lot of things to do while in town. You can either perform your music in the Inn, go to the keep and sing to the Monarch, or even be a morale support for the Captain and his men during a battle! It's really up to you what you want to do. There is also a theater in which you can perform with other people, though it's rarely ever used.
The bigger your music level, the bigger the mood effect!(Even people with non bardic training can have mood effects):
| "This music is relaxing." +1 Mood "This music is wonderful." +1 Mood "This music is exceptional." +2 Mood "This music is enchanting." +3 Mood |
ermm...also, those colors are just for fun to make the wiki more decorative, in game those should be green!
