And we have this here entry from Player's Guide to Faerun, p 33danielmn wrote:Background Feat - Artist
Vanilla feat gives +2 Perform/+2 diplomacy.
Since We have substituted multiple Perform instances for the single Vanilla perform, the +2 to perform is lost (though the +2 to diplomacy still functions as it should). Possible to modify the +2 perform to include all, or single perform, or substitute if that is found to be too much of a boon for another skill? ((though I don't see how it could be, as perform skills are mostly rp skills used in rp situations))
Artist [Regional]
Your people are renowned for their skill at story and song.
Prerequisite: Elf (Sildëyuir or Snow Eagle Aerie), Gnome (Thesk or the Western Heartlands), half-elf (the Dalelands), or human (Chessenta, Waterdeep, or the Western Heartlands).
Benefit: You gain a +2 bonus on all Perform checks and on checks with one Craft skill that involves art, such as calligraphy, painting, sculpture, or weaving. In addition, if you have the bardic music ability, you may use it three additional times per day. For example, a 3rd-level bard with this feat could use her bardic music ability six times per day.
Normal: A bard can use her bardic music ability once per day per bard level.
Special: You may select this feat only as a 1st-level character. You may have only one regional feat.
So, question 1: Does anyone feel super motivated and willing to draw up a design to make the canonical feat happen?
If the answer to question 1 is "No," would we object to just making it +2 to all perform skills and +2 to diplomacy until the answer to question 1 becomes "yes"?
