A bard's songbook is like a magician's spell book in that it contains words of power, songs for wind, songs for rain, songs to make the fire burn hotter and warm the room, songs of companionship to warm the heart.

Ari and Caper worked on Caper's Song Book last night on Inspired Unreality.
First we worked on a list of songs.
Song to make people dance
Song to make people alert
Song to make people like me AKA the opening numbers
Song of reflection
Song of hope
We renamed Song to make people alert to
Song of perception
tin tin aree tin tin aroo
look about look about could be you
jump about jump about one and two
tin tin aree tin tin aroo
and we wrote the lyric.
To be sung by the whole party twice through to increases alertness and perception.
The bard leads the song. The party sings it twice around. Just that helps. Some DMs may give pluses or advantage on perception and other pertinent rolls.
We had a great time and I look forward to filling in more blank pages in Caper's Song Book in the future.
Next week, Monday, August 2, is the first Monday of the month and we will be discussing Fantasy and Science Fiction literature.
At his music, a strong breeze sprang up and the boat surged forth into waves of cold and green that threw salt spray onto their lips.

I'm working on a song book for Caper. A song for wind, a song for rain, a song of warmth, a song of companionship, a song to give you courage.
If you have suggestions for Caper's book please leave them in the comments. Or if you have favorite bardsongs from fantasy literature or gaming point the way.
As another famous bard sang in another era,
The answer my friend, is blowing in the wind.
The answer is blowing in the wind.
