Inspired Rage

[walter mcwilliams]

Can you ignore Inspired Rage or does the fact that you are an ally and able to hear the performance effect you automatically?

[Bronnwynn]

It explicitly states that each ally decides whether or not to be affected at the start of their turn.

[StabbittyDoom]

Allies may choose to accept or forgo the effects both when the song is first started and again at the beginning of each turn thereafter (their turn, not the skald's).

Unconscious allies automatically accept. This means that someone who was choosing not to rage starts raging on their first turn after going unconscious, which may give them enough HP to be conscious again.

if unconscious and forced into a rage do these allies with "spirits" then have spirits attacking while they are "out"?

What do you mean? What spirits?

[Maugua]

A skald in our group has inspired rage and adds the rage power "lesser spirit totem" to his allies when he inspires them. According to this rage power spirit wisps surround him and his allies harassing foes. This causes a slam attack against foes using "the barbarian's" BAB plus the barbarian's cha modifier to attack causing 1d4 plus the barbarian's cha modifier in damage. He insists that the skald is the barbarian and the skald directs the spirit's attacks. I thought the ally becomes the "barbarian" and they direct the attacks so if they are not conscious they can not direct any attacks. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

they have the rage power but it is based off the skald's stats. So they'd direct the attack.
