A lock singer rages against slavers and tyrants. His stirring performances move audiences to action and break the locks and chains of oppressors who dare to stand in his way.
Songs of Freedom (Su)
The lock singer’s performances are declarations of freedom, litanies of anger against locks and chains. The lock singer gains Disable Device as a class skill, and adds 1/2 his on level Disable Device checks (minimum +1). He can use Disable Device to disarm magic traps.
This replaces bardic knowledge
Raging Songs
The lock singer gains access to the following raging songs.
Freedom Ringer (Su): At 7th level, the lock singer attempt a Disable Device check to open any number of locks he can see. He must expend rounds of bardic performance for each lock he attempts to open; opening a lock this way requires the maximum amount of time required. When the most time consuming lock has been sung to, the skald makes a single Disable Device check and applies the result against all affected locks. For example, if the skald attempts to open 2 simple locks (1 round each), 1 intricate lock (4 rounds), and 2 complex locks (8 rounds each), he would spend 22 total rounds of raging song over 8 rounds of time, after which he would make a single Disable Device check against the DC of all 5 locks. This performance requires audible components.
This replaces lore master 1/day
Liberating Crescendo (Su): At 10th level, the lock singer can liberate the innocent from their prisons with a single crashing note. Each round when the lock singer begins or maintains this performance, affected allies can attempt an Escape Artist check, grapple combat maneuver, or saving throw as an immediate action in order to escape a grapple or end a condition or effect which inhibits movement. This is a mind-affecting effect with visual and audible components.
This replaces lore master 2/day
Bastion against Chains (Su): At 19th level, the lock singer can use his performance to protect his allies from bondage. Allies affected by this performance are not affected by the entangled, paralyzed, or pinned conditions. This aura only suppresses these effects, and they return once an affected ally is no longer affected by this raging song. This performance relies on audible and visual components.
This replaces lore master 3/day
Embodiment of Freedom (Sp)
At 20th level, the lock singer is a living embodiment of freedom. He gains freedom of movement as a constant spell-like ability and always succeeds on Disable Device checks made to open locks. Additionally, creatures affected by the skald’s liberating crescendo raging song gain the effects of freedom of movement.
