Song of Power
Simple Summary	Song of Power: Incant "I sing a song of power" and either chant "Song of Power" or perform. While you do, you Rest at double time, and players Resting near you also count at double-time. (Does not affect Confidence or Rest at Base). Ends if your Rest or chant are interrupted.
Available to	Bard, Monster (Fairy, Siren)
Type	Verbal (Non-Offensive)
Range	Self
Incantation	"I sing a song of power"
Chant	"Song of Power" OR the caster may perform.
Effects	Chant Effect: Caster is affected as per Rest. They may chant without breaking the Rest and may use Innate without breaking this chant. The caster and other players that are resting within 20ft of the caster may count their rest at double-time. Confidence and the 'Rest at Base' options cannot benefit from this increased rate. Players wishing to Rest for either of these options must still wait for the full, unmodified time. If the caster's Rest or chant is interrupted, the effects of Song of Power immediately end.
Other Details	If the caster chooses to perform, their performance is the chant and must meet all the requirements for chants. The caster must also do their best to avoid confusion on the battlefield by declaring that they are using Song of Power to potential aggressors or anyone who might be confused. It should be clear whether someone is performing for Song of Power or just for the fun of it. The effects of multiple Songs of Power do not stack.

Extra Clarifications

Any additional clarifications about this ability will be listed below. To request a clarification, please visit the Amtgard V9 Discord server.

• 'Double-time' means counting two seconds per second. You can count by twos (2, 4, 6, 8...), or count twice as fast. As long as it's no more than 2 per second, whatever makes it easy for you.

Trivia

• Song of Power was introduced in Amtgard V8 (2014).
