Shifting Aspect (Su) At 1st level, you gain the benefit of the Aspect of the Beast feat while bloodraging. As part of the action to enter a bloodrage, you can choose any one of the four manifestations to affect you for the duration of your bloodrage.

Spontaneous Change (Sp) At 4th level, when entering a bloodrage, you can cast a transmutation spell that affects only you as a swift action, provided that the spell’s normal casting time is 1 round or shorter. The spell lasts for as long as you continue bloodraging, regardless of the spell’s normal duration. You can use this ability only to cast bloodrager spells you know.

Always looking for an opportunity to join a crew and, maybe, find lasting friendships, Mest knows he is not a lot of help on a boat, except maybe as a lookout. Either that, or sharing his impressive strength. But still, as fearsome as he is to his enemies, he has always been incredibly reliable to his friends.

Armored Casting (Ex) You can cast bard spells while wearing light armor and use a shield without incurring the normal arcane spell failure chance.
Bardic Performance You are trained to use the Perform skill to create magical effects on those around you, including yourself if desired. You are trained to use the Perform skill to create magical effects on those around you, including yourself if desired. You can use this ability for 15 rounds per day. Each round, you can produce any one of the types of bardic performance that you have mastered. Starting a bardic performance is a standard action, but it can be maintained each round as a free action. Changing a bardic performance from one effect to another requires the bard to stop the previous performance and start a new one as a standard action. A bardic performance cannot be disrupted, but it ends immediately if you are killed, paralyzed, stunned, knocked unconscious, or otherwise prevented from taking a free action to maintain it each round. You cannot have more than one bardic performance in effect at one time.

Bonus Feat Humans select one extra feat at 1st level.
Cantrips You have learned a number of cantrips, or 0-level spells. These spells are cast like any other spells, but they do not consume any slots and may be used again.

Distraction (Su) You can use your performance to counter magic effects that depend on sight. Each round of the distraction, make a Perform (act, comedy, dance, or oratory) skill check. Any creature within 30 feet (including yourself) that is affected by an illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) magical attack may use your Perform check result in place of its saving throw if, after the saving throw is rolled, the Perform skill check proves to be higher. If a creature within range of the distraction is already under the effect of a noninstantaneous illusion (pattern) or illusion (figment) magical attack, it gains another saving throw against the effect each round it sees the distraction, but it must use your Perform skill check result for the save. Distraction does not work on effects that don't allow saves. Distraction relies on visual components.

Familiar At 2nd level, a sea singer acquires an exotic pet, a monkey or parrot (treat as raven), that gains abilities as a wizard's familiar, using the sea singer's bard level as his wizard level. This ability replaces versatile performance.

Fascinate (Su) You can use your performance to cause up to 2 creatures to become fascinated with you. Each creature to be fascinated must be within 90 feet, able to see and hear you, and capable of paying attention to you. You must also be able to see the creatures affected. The distraction of a nearby combat or other dangers prevents this ability from working. Each creature within range receives a Will save (DC 15) to negate the effect. If a creature's saving throw succeeds, you cannot attempt to fascinate that creature again for 24 hours. If its saving throw fails, the creature sits quietly and observes your performance for as long as you continue to maintain it. While fascinated, a target takes a -4 penalty on all skill checks made as reactions, such as Perception checks. Any potential threat to the target allows the target to make a new saving throw against the effect. Any obvious threat, such as someone drawing a weapon, casting a spell, or aiming a weapon at the target, automatically breaks the effect. Fascinate is an enchantment (compulsion), mind-affecting ability. Fascinate relies on audible and visual components in order to function.

Inspire Courage (Su) You can use your performance to inspire courage in your allies (including yourself), bolstering them against fear and improving their combat abilities. To be affected, an ally must be able to perceive your performance. An affected ally receives a +2 morale bonus on saving throws against charm and fear effects and a +2 competence bonus on attack and weapon damage rolls. Inspire courage is a mind-affecting ability. Inspire courage can use audible or visual components. The bard must choose which component to use when starting his performance.

Iron Liver You gain a +2 trait bonus on Fortitude saves against poison and drugs, and a +4 trait bonus on Fortitude saves to avoid the effects of alcohol.

Lore Master (Ex) You have become a master of lore and can take 10 on any Knowledge skill check that you have ranks in. You can choose not to take 10 and can instead roll normally. In addition, 1 times per day, you can take 20 on any Knowledge skill check as a standard action.

River Rat (marsh or river) You learned to swim right after you learned to walk. As a youth, a gang of river pirates put you to work swimming in nighttime rivers and canals with a dagger in your teeth so you could sever the anchor ropes of merchant vessels. You gain a +1 trait bonus on damage dealt with a dagger and a +1 trait bonus on Swim checks. Swim is always a class skill for you.

Sea Legs (Ex) At 2nd level, a sea singer gains a +4 bonus on saving throws against air and water effects and effects that would cause the sea singer to slip, trip, or otherwise be knocked prone. He gains a +2 bonus to CMD against grapple, overrun, and trip. This ability replaces well-versed.

Sea Shanty (Su) A sea singer learns to counter seasickness and exhaustion during long sea voyages. Each round of a sea shanty, he makes a Perform skill check. Allies within 30 feet (including the sea singer) may use his Perform check in place of a saving throw against becoming exhausted, fatigued, nauseated, or sickened; if already under such an effect, a new save is allowed each round of the sea shanty, using the bard's Perform check for the save. A sea shanty has no effect on instantaneous effects or effects that do not allow saves. This ability requires audible components. This performance replaces countersong.

Skilled Humans gain an additional skill rank at 1st level and one additional rank whenever they gain a level.

Still Water (Su) At 3rd level, a sea singer can use performance to calm rough waters within 30 feet, reducing the DC for Profession (sailor) and Swim checks, as well as for Acrobatics and Climb checks aboard ship, by an amount equal to the bard's level (to a minimum of DC 10) for as long he continues to perform. He can extend this duration to 1 hour by playing for 10 consecutive rounds. This ability requires audible components. This performance replaces inspire competence.

World Traveler (Ex) A sea singer gains a bonus equal to half his bard level on Knowledge (geography), Knowledge (local), Knowledge (nature), and Linguistics checks. He can reroll a check against one of these skills, but must take the result of the second roll even if it is worse. He can reroll one additional time per day at 5th level and every five levels thereafter. This ability replaces bardic knowledge.

Jack's father was a skilled shipwright and his mother a talented seamstress- both things in demand on Taldas Isle, where the pirates need ship repairs and the rich of all stripes like to pretend they live in a quarter of far-off Oppara and like to wear beautiful clothes to go to the opera at the Blooming Rose Theater. As a child, Jack always loved the plays and musicians at the theater and wanted to be a musician. He learned to play multiple instruments and sang like a bird.

But he also grew up idolizing the pirate lords who control the Shackles, loving their swagger and poise, their swashbuckling verve and dashing bravado. While he didn't grow up on the deck of a ship like many others, he did grow up aping these masters of the sea. His in-born talents didn't lend themselves to swordplay but his sharp eye and quick fingers made him a natural gunslinger, made all the better when he came to realize he had an innate affinity for magic.

He's spent some time exploring the few ruins close to Little Oppara but they're pretty tame since they've been fully explored. Knowing that no great musician ever wrote music about staying home and doing nothing, he resolved to travel further afield and have experiences to write songs about. With typical pirate bravado he has declared he will one day be the greatest pirate in history, though in truth his real goal is to write songs that live forever, making his name immortal through his works.

PERSONALITY
Gregarious, friendly, loves to meet new people. Jack always has a story or appropriate song. Loves to be the center of attention. He's brash and bold and dashing, like a pirate from a story- it started as an act but if you act one way long enough that eventually just becomes who you are.

Contrary to his nickname, Jack only has the usual five fingers on each hand. He started introducing himself as Six-String Jack when he started playing in bars back in Little Oppara but changed it to Six Fingered Jack (then Six Finger Jack when people made fun of him being 'fingered') when he set out on a ship for the first time.
