Bladesinging is the skill to move your blades so quickly, that they make musical sounds as they cut through the air, more than just a normal 'whoosh'. The purpose of bladesinging is not to create music, however, but the sounds come with slashes and thrusts which the eye can hardly register, from the speed of the attacks. The effects of training this skill can be seen by using the 'whirling blades' battle maneuver. It should be noted that this skill requires great dexterity, and clumsy individuals seldom improve their blade whirling with bladesinging.

Skilled bladesingers can also tune in their weapons to the frequency of the elemental forces, making them chirp in harmony with the energy. This allows the weapon to inflict sonic damage on successful hits.

Note that this process can consume one's magical energy quite quickly.

The syntax for this is:

'use bladesinging at start <weapon's name>'
'use bladesinging at end <weapon's name>'
