Dance of the Dead

Feats

At 10th level, a dirge bard can use his bardic performance to cause dead bones or bodies to rise up and move or fight at his command. This ability functions like the animate dead spell, but the created skeletons or zombies remain fully animate only as long as the dirge bard continues the performance. Once it stops, any created undead collapse into carrion. Unlike animate dead, dance of the dead does not have the evil descriptor.
