mind-affecting ability that uses audible components.

Heraldic Expertise: A court bard gains a bonus equal to half his bard level
on Diplomacy, Knowledge (history), Knowledge (local),
and Knowledge (nobility) checks minimum +1). Once per
day, the court bard can also reroll a check against one
of these skills, though he must take the result of the

Oracle
Armor/Weapons: Oracles are proficient with all simple weapons, light armor,
medium armor, and shields(except tower shields). Some Oracle
revelations grant additional proficiencies.
Spells: An oracle casts divine spells drawn from the cleric spell lists.
He can cast any spell without preparing it ahead of time. To
learn or cast a spell, an oracle must have a charisma score
equal to at least 10 + the spell level. The difficulty class
for a saving throw against an oracle's spell is 10 + the spell's
level + the Oracle's Charisma modifier. Like other
spellcasters, an oracle can cast only a certain number of spells
per day of each spell level. In addition, she receives bonus
spells per day if she has a high charisma score. An oracle
begins play knowing four 0-level spells and two 1st level spells
of her choice. An oracle also adds all cure spells to her list
of spells known. Upon reaching 4th level, and at every even
numbered oracle level after that, an oracle can choose to learn
a new spell in place of one she already knows. The new spell's
level must be the same as that of the spell being exhanged. An
oracle may swap only a single spell at any given level. She
cannot swap any inflict spells, nor can she swap any spells
gained from her mystery. Oracles do not need to provide a
divine focus to cast spells that list divine focus as part of
components. Spells per Day: 8-1st, 4-2nd, 1-3rd
Spells Known: 6/3/1
Mystery: Lore, Class skills: Appraise, spellcraft, all knowledge skills.
Spell: Identify
Revelations: LoreKeeper(Ex): Instead of encyclopedic knowledge, you
learn most of your information through tales, songs, and poems.
You may use your Charisma modifier instead of your Intelligence
modifier on all Knowledge checks.
Focused Trance(Ex): You can enter a deep meditation, blocking
out visual and auditory stimuli and allowing you to
concentrate on a single problem, philosophical issue, or
memory. This trance lasts 1d6 rounds, during which time you
can only take move actions. During this period, you gain a
bonus equal to your level on all saves against sonic effects
and gaze attacks. When you come out of your trance, you may
make a single Intelligence-based skill check with a
+20 circumstance bonus. You may enter your focused trance a
number of times per day equal to your Charisma modifier (4).
Oracle's Curse: Haunted, Malevolent spirits follow you wherever you go,
causing minor mishaps and strange occurances. Retrieving any
stored item from your gear requires a standard action, unless
it would normally take longer. Any item you drop lands 10
feet away from you in a random direction. Add Mage Hand
and Ghost Sound to your list of spells known.
Orisons: Oracles learn a number of 0-level spells. These spells are
cast like any other spells, but they do not consume any slots
and may be used again.

Details[]
Size: Medium
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Height: 6'1
Weight: 150 1b
Hair Color: Brown and Straight, to shoulders
Eye Color: Bright Violet
Skin Color: Fair
Appearance: Denizel stands tall, and appears slight at first, but those who
get a good look at him he is not overly thin to be unappealing,
but is smooth, and lightly toned. His face shows his youth.
With his elven blood he seems almost feminine to some, but
handsome as well. He dresses in simple explorers clothes, only
slightly worn, under a beautifully crafted breastplate. A fine
leather bag is slung across his shoulder, a buckler strapped to
one arm, and a silver holy symbol of courtessa dangles from his
neck. He bears no visible weapons, but keeps a small pouch of
crossbow bolts on his belt. His face, hair and hands, seem out
of place with this gear. A good eye will catch little experience
in practical matters.
Demeanor: Denizel is always looking for a way up in the world, without
too much hard work. While he's not easily frightened he places
a high value on his own safety and will almost always keep toward
the back of a fight. His general outlook is that the world is
against him, when they should all love him.
The following three voices speak most commonly to Denizel and
influence his choices or personality:
Craestere: Seems to favor elves, and high standing members of the court.
Tries to influence Denizel to act more properly, and follow what
is acceptable behavior.
Valerie: Younger and indulgent. Encourages Denizel to make choices that
leads to more luxury or fun. Seems to think sex is always a
solution and that Denizel should wear sexier clothing.
Occasionally seems to forget Denizel is male.
Del: Seems to favor the smaller races. Emotional. Encourages Denizel
toward stronger reactions and possibly dangerous choices.
Background[]
Denizel was raised as the son of a noble in the barony of Aldunqua, then part of the Landadel Baronies. There he was treated to all manor of finery, and a moderate education. When he was ten years old, his house was attacked by the Endave Confederacy, a group of rival nations who had declared war on Aldunqua. He was rushed away by some servants to seek exile in Venza, City of Glass. His parents did not follow. Some months later he learned that Aldunqua was no more, his parents likely dead, and his title worthless.
It was at this time the Denizel began to lose his hearing. It was at first assumed that it was shock, then later people assumed the magical explotions, from the attack, must have caused permanent damage. Denizel didn't know why, he just knew he could hardly hear anymore, which was very inconvenient. Without his parents, or his wealth, he could not have the affliction treated magically. Slowly over the last few years, its only seemed to get worse.
Luckily for Denizel, though he hardly recognized it at the time, in the few months he spent as an exile in the court some saw potential in him. One of the Courtesans, led him to Madaam Delmont, who trained young people of certains looks and talents to be favored companions. Denizel didn't like the idea of having to please others, but even at such a young age, he knew it was better than living in the streets. It was explained to him that a favored Courtier may live as luchly as any noble, so went to work. He learned to hold his tongue, which was suprisingly easy with his new affliction. He learned how to beautfy himself, how to hold himself, the art of dance, how to take on roles and how to use information to his advantage. It was also in Madaam Delmont's house that he learned to read lips. At first it was out of nessisty, but when the Madaam discovered his talent, she began tutoring him herself. Denizel learned, through these private sessions, the Madaam Delmont not only attended various courts, but worked for a time as a spy for one of the noble houses. That didn't sound so bad.
When Denizel was fifteen, he was reintroduced to the courts. Due to his many talents he became a hit and soon found his presence desired by many for functions or more private affairs. This is when he started hearing the voices. The voices started as few and far between. Sometimes it would be a suggestion, other times an odd it of knowledge and others a bit of insight. Some voices came more often then others, and he came to know them as former Courtiers and Courtesans that have moved past this world. Denizel began a casual worship of Courtessa, out of fear more than anything.
A year later he became the favored Courtier of the young lady Esme, whose house was among the Scarlotti. He had grand fun being pampered and cared for, even if whispered voices spoke of him being nothing more than the lady's plaything. He even managed to pick up a few tricks from the house mage, Sage Alfred Gredel.
Just a few weeks ago, his world changed. One of the voices warned him, that Lady Esme's uncle, the Lord Darnuke, was secretly plotting against her. Denizel began snooping around to find evidence of this, and was caught by Danruke's men. Fearing that Denizel knew more than he did, Darnuke smeared his name in the court, claiming that he was trying to manipulate Lady Esme, among others to reinstate his own house, and on top that, Denizel had been making various claims about certain individuals inability to lead, behind closed doors, and in various bed chambers. Denizel's words carried little wieght in comparison and he was soon dismissed from the courts.
Selling what little possessions he managed to take with him, including his courtly jewels, Denizel has purchased enough material to get started as an adventurer. He sees it as the only path to make a new name for himself, and earn quick funds, in a way that is at least somewhat expected. He just hopes people appreciate the value of a skilled speaker, and don't expect him to get too dirty.
Halfway through his first adventure, a filthy campaign against a group of goblins and an actual dragon, the voices got much louder in his head. Assumedly tied to this event, he's found himself chaneleing more of Courtessa's power, with his hearing miraculously improved.
