A Minstrel starts knowing two performances of her choice and gains new performances known as she levels up. She chooses her performances from the following list: [[Minstrel (3.5e Class)/Virtuous Performance List]]
'''{{Anchor|Disguise in Plain Sight}}:''' A 2nd level Minstrel gains [[Disguise in Plain Sight (3.5e Feat)|Disguise in Plain Sight]] as a bonus feat, even if she does not meet the prerequisites. If you she already possess the feat, you she gain another feat from the Minstrel's Bonus Feat list you meet the prerequisites of. '''{{Anchor|Skill Improvisation}} {{Ex}}:''' A 2nd level Minstrel is capable of improvising just about any skills. She may replace any skill check with a half class level + her [[Intelligence]] modifier check. This does not allow her to use trained-only skills without ranks. At 6th level, she may use Skill Improvisation to gain full use of trained-only skills.
'''{{Anchor|Talented Discovery}}:''' At 2nd level and each even level thereafter, the minstrel learns a special skill called a Talented Discovery. Once learned, a Talented Discovery cannot be changed short of rebuilding. The DC of her Talented Discoveries, if any, is DC 10 + ½ Class + her [[Charisma]] modifier. She selects her Talented Discoveries from the list below:
'''{{Anchor|Bonus Feat}}:''' At 3rd level, 5th level, and each 5 levels thereafter, the minstrel gains a bonus feat she meets the prerequisites for from the following list: [[SRD:Combat Reflexes|Combat Reflexes]], [[Broad Practice (3.5e Feat)|Broad Practice]] [[SRD:Endurance|Endurance]], [[SRD:Persuasive|Persuasive]], [[SRD:Skill Focus|Skill Focus]] (Diplomacy, Bluff, Gather Information or Perform), [[SRD:Weapon Finesse|Weapon Finesse]]. and any feat which affects her virtuous performance (such as [[Exalted Bardsong (3.5e Feat)|Exalted Bardsong]] or [[Music of the Gods-CE (3.5e Feat)|Music of the Gods]]).
'''{{Anchor|Gather Crowd}} {{Ex}}:''' The 3rd-level minstrel can amass a crowd with a 10-minute speech or performance. The size of the crowd depends on the local population. but is usually dense enough to be considered difficult terrain. The crowd usually disperses 1d4 rounds after any interesting events have stopped happening or after violence has started. '''{{Anchor|Skill Improvisation}} {{Ex}}:''' A-2nd level Minstrel is capable of improvising just about any skills. She may replace any skill check with a half class level + her [[Intelligence]] modifier check. This does not allow her to use trained-only skills without ranks. At 6th level, she may use Skill Improvisation to gain full use of trained-only skills.
'''{{Anchor|The Troupe}} {{Ex}}:''' A 7th-level minstrel gains [[Variant Leadership (3.5e Feat)|Variant Leadership]] as a bonus feat. If she does not want the responsibility of leading, then she may gain [[Broad Practice (3.5e Feat)|Broad Practice]] as a bonus feat instead.
'''{{Anchor|Inspiration}} {{Su}}:''' A 9th-level minstrel can spend one round of her [[#Virtuous Performance|virtuous performance]] to make any willing creature within 30 feet of herself reroll a single d20 roll, accepting the second result even if it's worse.
'''{{Anchor|Arcane Mastery}} {{Ex}}:''' At 13th level, a minstrel can gain a single [[SRD:Archmage|Archmage]]'s High Arcana; she must sacrifice a spell slot as normal, but the spell slot cost is reduced by 2 (so ''Arcane Reach'' would cost a 5th level spell slot). Whenever she gains a new Talented Discovery, she may select another High Arcana as well.
'''{{Anchor|Generational Legacy}} {{Su}}:''' A 17th-level minstrel can make herself immortal through her work. With a full year of work, she may create a play, song, or another form of art. As long as this piece of art or a copy of it exists, she ceases to age and may be brought back to life with no level loss.
'''{{Anchor|Move the Stars}} {{Su}}:''' A 19th-level minstrel can once per (???) make a DC 40 [[SRD:Perform Skill|perform]] check as a 1-round action. If she fails or the action is interrupted, the ability is wasted. If she succeeds, however, she replicates the effect of the [[SRD:Miracle|''miracle'']] spell. She must still pay any material or XP component of the miracle or any spell it replicates.
'''{{Anchor|The Legend}}:''' A 20th-level minstrel gains a a supreme [[#Virtuous Performance|virtuous performance]]. She must choose from the following list:
