The prime Bard gets an extra equipment slot, the instrument slot.
<instrument> a battered metal harmonica..It has a soft glowing aura!
There is a set of special equipment items that can be worn in this slot that may also grant special abilities to the bards playing those instruments. By wearing an instrument, the bard gains access to the 'play' command. The instrument slot is used in conjunction with a prime Bard skill Adaptation to Circumstances.
