Carry on my reckless one
Though your rage is almost done
Soon the battle will be won
Go and strike once more

“Blank Space” by Taylor Swift

When you fail to hit their AC
But they will soon be dead
They’ll die if you cut off their head
Grab your weapon, let’s change fate
I can make your bad rolls hit with a d8
“Everytime We Touch” by Cascada
'Cause every time you roll, I get this feeling
And every time you miss I fear we will die
So please take this die real fast
I want you to pass
Need luck on our side
“Hallelujah” by Leonard Cohen
I heard there was a secret roll
That bards could add to your total
A little boost, they call it inspiration
Well it goes like this, roll a d6
And add it to your attacks and checks
And even saves can use your inspiration

I know you need an extra die
Bardic inspiration!
You need a boost to smite that guy?

Every move you make
Every sword you swing
Every spell you fling
I'll be buffing you

Go ahead and let your bloodlust rise!
Let me put some more power in your hands

All these undead are killing me (and I)
I must confess, I need reprieve (need reprieve)
Since your dice can’t roll above a nine, take one of mine
Hit that zombie one more time!
“Hey Jude” by the Beatles
Hey, Druid, that roll was bad
Take a d6, and make it better
“I Believe in a Thing Called Love” by The Darkness

Just giving it another try
There's a chance you can make it now
'Cause you're rolling with an extra die

“Still Alive” by Jonathan Coulton (from Portal)
I’ll help you triumph
I’m making your roll a huge success
I’ll help you win with bardic inspiration
"Don't Speak" by No Doubt
Don't speak
You got that low persuasion
Without my inspiration
Don't talk without a buff

It could care less as long as all of us bleed
So pick up your bow, and nock another arrow
And take my extra d6 and save me

Here’s an extra die
Seems like you’re in need
Use it any time

I guess that we must face this foe
It’s time to fight (time to fight)
Let’s make sure you land this next blow
It’s the final boss fight!

There is a roll you’re ‘bout to make
Don’t roll a natural one

Go and smite the unholy

Now, over there! No time to spare!
Go on and cast a Great Bolt of Fire!
“Ballroom Blitz” by Sweet
Now the DM in the back says “roll for your attack”
I’ll inspire you with 1d6
Rollin’ initiative order so we can do some murders
When we get an extra 1d6, 1d6
“Paradise City” by Guns and Roses
Take a die, when we’re rollin’ shitty
When you hear me sing an inspiring ditty
Oh won’t you please take this die

Put your axe into his head
Add this die to make him dead!

And if the first roll don’t do the trick
I’m gonna give you a d6
‘Cause I’m a bard, bard, bard, bard, bard, and I’ll give
I’ll give you… Inspiration
“Holding Out for a Hero” by Bonnie Tyler
You’re out of divine smite, can’t even summon steed
Every round you toss and roll, and you dream of what you need…
You need a d12!
Have an extra d12 you can roll in this fight!
An attack or a save, any check that you crave
Add my die and we’ll all be alright
“Firework” by Katy Perry
‘Cause baby you’re a spellcaster
But your aim could be better
Go ahead and add this die
As you give it just one more try

Strike with your sneak attack
While they got eyes on me
Roll with this 1d6
So take a stab and hit that fiend
“Bye bye bye” by *NSYNC
I know that we can’t take no more
Got one more try
I know you’re gonna roll a four
Baby take my die
“Gaston” from Beauty and the Beast
No one rolls like our rogue
Beats up trolls like our rogue
No one pokes all our foes full of holes like our rogue
There is no one so worthy of inspiration,
I give a die to our rogue!
