If you succeed, you can sacrifice one of your daily uses of bardic music to increase the save DC of the next enchantment or illusion spell you cast in the same round by 2. If the Perform check fails, you still lose one daily use of bardic music but gain no benefit.

If you succeed, you push the creature back 5 feet. As a secondary benefit, you gain a +1 competence bonus to your caster level when casting air spells

In addition, you can cast spells and activate magic items by command word or spell completion while using a bardic music ability. Bardic music abilities that require concentration still take a standard action to perform.

Normal
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">A bard can't cast spells or activate magic items by command word or spell completion while using bardic music

Metamagic School Focus
( Complete Mage, p. 45)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">You are unusually skilled at modifying the effects of a particular school of magic.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">Choose a school of magic for which you have the Spell Focus feat, or the school in which you have specialized.

Metamagic Spell Trigger
( Complete Mage, p. 45)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">You can apply metamagic feats you know to spell effects from magic items you activate with a spell trigger.

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Use Magic Device 15 ranks, Any metamagic feat,

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">You can apply any one metamagic feat you know to a spell generated by a spell trigger item (such as a wand or staff) that you activate. You expend one extra charge for each change in spell level a metamagic feat normally requires. If the metamagic feat's level adjustment would normally increase the slot of the chosen spell's level above 9th, you can't apply the metamagic effect to the spell. For example, you can't apply Quicken Spell to an antimagic field generated by a staff (since that would take a 10th-level spell slot to cast). If sufficient charges aren't available in the item to power the application of metamagic feats (or if the item doesn't use charges), the item fails to activate and no charges are used, but the action used to activate the item is wasted

Metamagic Vigor

[Tactical]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">The energy you pour into increasing the power of your spells feeds back upon itself in an ever-increasing cycle.

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">The Metamagic Vigor feat allows the use of two tactical maneuvers. Metamagic Intensity: If you cast spells affected by the same metamagic feat in 2 consecutive rounds, you gain a +1 bonus to the second spell's caster level. Metamagic Versatility: If you cast spells affected by two different metamagic feats in 2 consecutive rounds, you gain a +1 bonus to the second spell's save DC.

Special
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">You can't benefit from both of these maneuvers (or either maneuver more than once) in a single round; if you are eligible to use both, choose the one you want. Only actual metamagic feats allow this feat to function. A metamagic spell effect produced by a metamagic rod or other magic item or external device does not qualify you to use this feat

As a secondary benefit, you gain a +1 competence bonus to your caster level when casting polymorph spells. See page 91 for details on the new polymorph subschool of spells

Mystic Backlash
( Complete Mage, p. 45)

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">As long as you have an abjuration spell of 5th level or higher available to cast, you can make another creature's spellcasting harmful to itself. Use of this feat requires a melee touch attack that does not provoke attacks of opportunity. As a standard action, with a successful touch you can infuse another creature with baneful magic for a number of rounds equal to the level of the highest-level abjuration spell you have available. A successful Will save reduces this duration to 1 round. For the duration of the effect, each time the target completes the casting of a spell, it takes damage equal to the level of the abjuration spell that determined the effect's duration. Since the spell's casting has already been completed, this doesn't count as damage dealt during casting. As a secondary benefit, you gain a +1 competence bonus to your caster level when casting abjuration spells

Piercing Evocation
( Complete Mage, p. 46)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Your evocation spells ignore an amount of energy resistance.

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">When you cast an evocation spell that deals energy damage (acid, cold, fire, electricity, or sonic), you can choose for 10 points of energy damage dealt by the spell to become untyped damage to which energy resistance and immunity do not apply. If the spell deals multiple types of energy damage, you choose how much of each type is converted by this feat after rolling damage.

Special
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">An evoker can select this feat as a wizard bonus feat

You can use this ability three times per day

Rapid Metamagic
( Complete Mage, p. 46)

[General]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">You possess an uncanny mastery of your magic, enabling you to modify spells on the fly much faster than others can.

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Spellcraft 12 ranks, ability to spontaneously cast spells,

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">When you apply a metamagic feat to a spontaneously cast spell, the spell takes only its normal casting time.

Normal
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">Spontaneous casters applying metamagic must either take a full-round action (if the spell normally requires a standard action or less) or add a full-round action to the casting time (if the spell takes 1 full round or longer to cast)

Residual Magic
( Complete Mage, p. 46)

[Tactical]

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">You can use the lingering energy from a spell you cast to boost the effect of a later spell.

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">Spellcraft 12 ranks, any metamagic feat,

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">The Residual Magic feat allows the use of two tactical maneuvers. Enduring Potency: If you cast a spell from your daily allotment of spells, then cast the same spell from a scroll or wand in the next round, you can treat the second casting as if it had come from your daily allotment of spells for the purpose of caster level, save DC, and any other effect of the spell. For example, if Hennet the 10th-level sorcerer casts magic missile, then activates a wand of magic missile (caster level 5th) in the next round, he can treat the wand's magic missile as if he had cast it (giving him a greater range, number of missiles, and so forth). Lingering Metamagic: If you cast a spell affected by one or more metamagic feats, and then cast the same spell in the next round, you can apply any one of the metamagic effects from the first casting to the second casting, but without any change to the spell's level. The second spell doesn't count as being affected by a metamagic feat for the purpose of this benefit (that is, it doesn't entitle you to apply the metamagic feat to a spell you might cast in the following round). Only spells you cast using your own metamagic feats (as opposed to metamagic effects from magic items) allow this option to function. For example, if Hennet uses a 5th-level slot to cast an empowered lightning bolt, in the next round he can use a 3rdlevel slot to cast another empowered lightning bolt. If the first spell was a silent empowered lightning bolt, he could apply the effect of either Silent Spell or Empower Spell to the second casting of lightning bolt, but not both

Retributive Spell
( Complete Mage, p. 47)

Prerequisite
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;">

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">When you cast a spell modified by this metamagic feat, the spell has no immediate effect. Any time you are dealt damage by a melee attack during the next 24 hours (or until you next prepare or ready your spells), you can choose to cast the spell on that attacker as an immediate action. Once activated, a retributive spell disappears (it can only affect one attacker). You can apply this feat only to a spell that targets a creature. A retributive spell can target only the attacker that triggered it, even if the spell would normally allow you to target multiple creatures. You can have only one retributive spell cast at a time. Casting a second retributive spell cancels the first (eliminating it with no effect). If you prepare or ready spells while you have a retributive spell cast, the spell dissipates with no effect. A retributive spell uses up a spell slot one level higher than the spell's actual level

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">As long as you have a darkness spell of 2nd level or higher available to cast, you can obscure the vision of a subject within 30 feet as a standard action. If the subject fails a Will save, it treats all other creatures and objects as though they had concealment and takes a -5 penalty on Spot checks for 1 round. As a secondary benefit, you gain a +1 competence bonus to your caster level when casting darkness spells.

Benefit
<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:20px;line-height:1.7em;text-align:justify;">When holding a weapon (or object of comparable size) in one or both hands, you can use that item to trace the somatic component of a spell, rather than using your fingers. This allows you to cast spells with somatic components even while your hands are full or occupied, as long as at least one hand is holding an item of the proper size. This feat doesn't allow you to use somatic components while grappling, regardless of the size of your foe.

Normal
