Dirgesinger (4e Paragon Path)

Dirgesinger
"Hark! Do you hear the sorrows in my melodies? They eat away the broken remnants of my heart, making every second a living hell. This is a pain that I will inflict upon you."

Prerequisite: Songweaver, You must have suffered some personal tragedy Dirgesingers are songweavers that have suffered devistating personal tragedies and fallen to their grief. Dirgesingers sing not melodies of joy but of despair and grief, seeking to express their grief through songs and teach their listeners the meaning of true sorrow. Some of these fallen songweavers want nothing more than for others to understand their pain, while others, twisted by their grief, wish to extinguish the joy of others.
