Moonlight Sonata

Music pours out of your heart, filling the area with the utmost delicacy and without damper.

Area, Magic, Performance	No action
📏 5 aura	🎯 Each ally in the area

Effect: While this performance is active, each target who is dead can choose to continue taking turns after death. On each of their turns, a target can move and use either a main action or a maneuver, but can't spend Recoveries or use triggered actions. At the end of the encounter, each target who chose to take turns this way turns to dust and blows away.

Radical Fantasia

𝅘𝅥𝅮♪Viras, my Viras, will you hold their hands as they cryyy-aaaiigh?♪

Area, Magic, Performance	No action
📏 5 aura	🎯 Self and each ally in the area

Effect: While this performance is active, each target who starts their turn in the area ignores difficult terrain, and any ability they use that imposes forced movement gains a +2 bonus to the forced movement distance until the end of their turn. Additionally, once per combat round, each target can use a triggered action as a free triggered action.

Deleted Scene

Whenever a creature within distance of your Dramatic Monologue ability makes a power roll, you can spend 1 drama as a free triggered action to use Dramatic Monologue, targeting only one creature.

Masterwork

Choose one of your signature abilities and name it after yourself. You always have this ability available, even if it is sourced from a kit you switch out. Whenever you use this ability, you gain an edge and 1 surge that you can use only on this ability.
