- Spells per Day: At every odd numbered level gained in the bladesinger class, the character gains new spells per day as if she had also gained a level in an arcane spellcasting class she belonged to before adding the prestige class. She does not, however, gain any other benefit a character of that class would have gained, except for an increased effective level of spellcasting. They also do not learn new spells unless through learning from a scroll or by taking a level in a non-prestige casting class afterwards.
- Bladesong Style: While wielding a longsword or rapier in their main hand and nothing in their off-hand, a Bladesinger's AC and damage is increased by their Intelligence modifier. This bonus cannot exceed more than half of the Bladesinger's class level rounded up. Furthermore, the Bladesinger gains a 20% spell failure reduction while wearing light armour and a +3 to Concentration. If the Bladesinger is wearing medium or heavy armor, this bonus is lost.
- Lesser Spellsong: A bladesinger’s style of attack appears like that of a dance of death, the rhythm combat and the sound of blades striking flesh. This whirl of steel and body can be mesmerizing and overwhelming to those that face a bladesinger. A Lesser Spellsong grants the bladesinger 10% Concealment, Freedom of Movement and immunity to Mind Affecting spells. A spellsong lasts for a number of rounds equal to their perform skill. A lesser spellsong can be used every 20 minutes.
- Song of Fury: The Bladesinger's Song of Fury echoes from aeons past, lending +4 to Strength, +4 to Dexterity and 1d2 Sonic damage to their melee attacks for 3 rounds + their Intelligence modifier. In addition, these bonuses are applied to any elves in a 10 meter radius; half elves affected this way gain half the benefit. This ability has an 8 minute cooldown.
- Greater Spellsong: A Greater Spellsong grants the bladesinger 20% Concealment, Freedom of Movement, immunity to Mind Affecting spells and increases the DC of any spell they cast by 2. A greater spellsong can be used every 12 minutes. This ability upgrades Lesser Spellsong, they are not separate abilities.
- Song of Celerity: The bladesinger's Song of Celerity invokes the ancestral power of the elves, granting the Bladesinger the benefits of Haste and Wounding Whispers for 4 rounds. In addition, these bonuses are applied to any elves in a 10 meter radius; half elves affected this way are only affected for 2 rounds. This ability has a 45 minute cooldown.
