Lights, Camera, Action You are a spotlight hog, and you live for nothing more than to be amazing in the eyes of your fans and to do so, you need amazing special effects. By spending a use of your bardic performance, you can cast any of the following spells as a swift action, using your Dark Hero level as your caster level. Fireball, Lightning Bolt, Sheet Lightning, Displacement, or Force Punch. All of these spells are considered to be neither arcane, nor divine, and are the product of cheesy special effects. Hell's Heart-Throb: The Dark Hero is loved by all.... or by a lot, but not really everyone. But with the right behavior, the Dark hero can be loved by all... artificially. By spending 2 rounds worth of Bardic performance, you can cast Charm monster on one creature per Dark Hero level that can hear you. The saving throw DC is 10+ Dark hero level+ Charisma modifier. Alternatively, you can use Waves of Ecstacy instead, however it only effects one creature per 3 levels. Stunt Double: The Dark Hero doesn't do his own stunts, that's just crazy.

Once per day, the Dark hero can expend 2 rounds of his Bardic Performance to gain the effects of a Divine Power spell, using his overall character level as his caster level. This is a standard action to perform. Perfect Badass Theme Song: The Dark Hero has reached a new level of awesomeness.
