| Ah-HA!! That's the one! Hmm, I might have gotten the name mixed up with something else, (Plot and Poison had a Deepsinger, so I might have had a weird brain-cross-over there) but yes, that was the one. Of the bunch, the Green Whisperer was my favorite. There are some other cool PrC's in other issues- the Windsinger (a seafaring bard), the Heartfire Fanner (a fire-based one), and a couple of others I can't recall off-hand. |

| I'm partial to the Prestige variant of the Bard Class presented in the Unearthed Arcana, but mainly because of the ideas behind the class being able to cast different types of Magic through Music, and needing much more training than preliminaries. can't just be a Bard at 1st level, aye! XD |

I never purchased a copy of that tome [I think]. Can you provide some details about this class?

Certainly, Sage. It's one of the better sources on drow, IMHO, FR canon or not. Here's some juicy bits. (Hope it doesn't violate any rules.)
"The earth has a music all its own, and the Underdark is its concert hall. Deepsingers hear the natural sounds of the dark caves and black pools of the Underdark as one unending grand symphony to which they can add their own harmonics, and by doing so, sing the dirges of their enemies' deaths.
Deepsingers wander the Underdark tunnels in search of perfect sounds and astounding harmonics. Not content to use music merely to support or enthrall, they weild sound as a weapon to destroy and deafen."
Some of their abilities include things like blinding song, keen hearing, deafening note, destructive harmonics, blindsight, echo- which allows his song to continue, sonic resistance, and soul song- which allows them to use bardic music to grant another roll on a sailed saving throw. |
