Creating a Magic Fiddle.

All right I am not sure if this is the place for this thread, but I am working on a Magic fiddle for a 13 level bard as the end a Quest.

This fiddle and bow are high quality made of Darkwood with golden inlaid runes.

Traits:
Fiddle Master work
While playing Music the Bard that knows the command notes can Activate Sound Burst 3 times a Day and Shout once a day. The Bow 3 times a day can act like a +1 Thundering Keen Rapier.

I am not sure if that is A) to powerful or B) not powerful enough, Any Thoughts.


Sound burst 3 times a day and shout once a day with the bow usable as a weapon doesn't sound too overpowered but the only way of checking is to stat it out.

Creation of this probably requires that the creator have X ranks in Perform (Musical Instrument) or Crafting (musical instrument) to keep the costs down because your biggest expense will be the bow transforming into a rapier and that requires a polymorph any object spell. Since you are transforming wood to metal, it's not too bad, but adding on 2 additional abilities, "Thundering" and "Keen" will add to the expense.

I'm still figuring out the rules for item creation myself or I'd stat this out. It is a neat idea.

Thanks. That is my issue as well. I am ploding through item creation trying to make it happen.

I know the cost is going to big that is why I have it as the reward on a Quest, a devil went down to Georgia senerio.

Thanks for the input once it is Stated out I will post it.
