Bardic Music: Blade can use her song or poetics to produce magical effects on those around her. Countersong (Su): Morning Glory Blade can counter magical effects that depend on sound by making a Perform check for each round of countersong. Any creature within 30 feet of her that is affected by a sonic or language-dependent magical attack can use Morning Glory Blade's Perform check result in place of his or her saving throw if desired. Countersong lasts for 10 rounds. Fascinate (Sp): Morning Glory Blade can cause a single creature within 90 feet that can see and hear her to become fascinated with her. Morning Glory Blade's Perform check result is the DC for the opponent's Will save. Any obvious threat breaks the effect. Fascination lasts 9 rounds.

The effect lasts until 5 rounds after the creature can no longer hear her. Suggestion (Sp): Morning Glory Blade can make a suggestion (as the spell) to a creature she has already fascinated. A Will save (DC 17) negates the effect. Elf Traits: Morning Glory Blade is immune to magic sleep spells and effects. She has a +2 racial bonus on saves against enchantment spells or effects. She also has low-light vision (can see twice as far as a human in low-light conditions) and is entitled to a Search check when within 5 feet of a secret or concealed door as though actively looking for it.
