Does the masterpiece Triple Time affect the bard performing it as well? It seems to me that it should, but it is not clear to me. It says one ally per Bard level, but my brain just can't comprehend how the bard doesn't hear it also

Triple Time

Your lively cadence puts a spring in the step of weary marchers.

Prerequisite: Perform (percussion) 3 ranks, Perform (string) 3 ranks, or Perform (wind) 3 ranks.

Cost: Feat or 1st-level bard spell known.

Effect: This bright and spritely tune mimics the sound of human feet, slowly building to a steady, ground-eating pace. When you complete this performance, you affect one ally in hearing range per bard level. This masterpiece increases the affected target’s base land speed by 10 feet for 1 hour. This adjustment is treated as an enhancement bonus. There is no effect on other modes of movement, such as burrow, climb, fly, or swim. As with any effect that increases your speed, this spell affects your jumping distance (see Acrobatics).

Use: 1 bardic performance round.

Action: 1 minute.

I don't know for sure whether "one ally" can include the caster, but it sure wouldn't make sense if it didn't.

The theme of the masterpiece seems to be marching. It would kind of suck for the bard to make his allies march faster then get left in the dust.


You are your own ally


that was my thought Exo

Martiln you are officially the man!
