"Bladesingers are elves who have blended art, swordplay, and arcane magic into a harmonious whole. In battle, a Bladesinger's lithe movements and subtle tactics seem beautiful, belying their deadly martial efficiency. Bladesingers have a treasured place in elven society, balancing the joys of art and magic with the skill of masterful fighting, and so Bladesingers are well-respected by other elves. They usually serve as itinerant guardians and champions of the elf community at large rather than tying themselves to one particular settlement. Multiclass Fighter/Wizards are the most obvious candidates for the prestige class, although any elf (or half-elf) who can wield a martial weapon and cast arcane spells can become a bladesinger. Bladesinging Ranger/Wizards, Rogue/Wizards, and Bladesinger Bards are not unknown." -- Races of Faerun

Spells Per Day/Spells Known: When a new, odd-numbered Bladesinger level is gained, the character gains new spells per day and spells known as though they had gained a level in their arcane spellcasting class.


Bladesong Style: At 1st Level while unarmoured or wearing light armour and weilding a Rapier or Longsword in one hand (and nothing in the other), the Bladesinger gains a Dodge Bonus to their AC equal to their level but not exceeding their intelligence bonus.


Extend Spell: At 2nd Level the Bladesinger learns to enhance the duration of their spells, gaining the extend spell feat.


Lesser Spellsong: At 3rd level the Bladesinger gains Skill Focus: Concentration as a bonus feat.


Song of Celerity: At 4th level a Bladesinger may quicken a single spell per day on the fly. At 8th level the Bladesinger may do this a second time per day (gives automatic quicken 1-3 as it's all engine grants)


Greater Spellsong: At 6th Level a Bladesinger may choose to wear light armour with no effect to their spellcasting (ignore ASF in light armour).


Deflect Arrows: At 7th level the Bladesinger can attempt to deflect arrows with his free hand, per the feat.


Song of Fury: At 10th level the Bladesinger can choose to make an additional attack per round at their highest AB; doing so causes a -2 on all attacks (including the extra attack). This mode does not stack with Haste.
