NOTES FROM PREVIOUS EDITION

Review for knowledge limitations in current edition. Review for adding notes to cultural sections.

Bards  Bardic Peace – Nearly universally among the various Harad peoples and adopted by many others in Eradain, a bard is recognized as having a special role, not only as an entertainer, but as a source of knowledge, news, as an envoy or negotiator and at times as an arbitrator or judge. When bearing a white staff a Bard is generally considered sacrosanct and may not be harmed or hindered. Some bards have taken to wearing white capes in addition to carrying white staves as a symbol of a permanent ongoing dedication to this neutrality. Bards discovered abusing this status will usually experience a terminal backlash.

Bardic Knowledge – (requires update to rules system being used) The Bardic Knowledge bonus granted is restricted to a single knowledge category. Studious seekers of knowledge will be given the Bardic Knowledge bonus in additional categories.  Languages – Any (see skills – Linguistics).
