==== Arcane Spellcasting ====
Specifics: When a new Olin Gisir level is gained, the character gains new spells per day (and spells known, if applicable) as though he had gained a level in whatever arcane spellcasting class gave him access to 3rd-level arcane spells. If the character has more than one applicable arcane spellcasting class, he must pick one to improve.


==== Ancient Knowledge ====
Specifics:You have studied ancient lore in considerable depth. You gain a +1 bonus on all Knowledge (arcana), Knowledge (history), and Use Magic Device checks. The bonus increases to +2 at 4th level, to +3 at 7th level, and to +4 at 10th level.

Use: Automatic.

==== Secret ====
Specifics: You have picked up countless bits of forgotten lore from ancient tomes you have uncovered, the whispers of imprisoned fiends you have been set to guard, and other even more dangerous sources. You can choose any one secret from the list below. You can choose another secret at level 4, level 7, and level 10.

Use: Special.

=== Secrets list ===
* Forgotten Spell Lore: You can learn any metamagic feat.
* Ancient Artifice: You can learn any item creation feat.
* Secret of Health: You gain 20 bonus HP, 30 at level 10.
* Lore of True Stamina: You gain a bonus to your Fortitude saves equal to [Olin Gisir Level/3], rounded down.
* Fiend Warding: You gain +2 Dodge AC and +2 to Saves against Evil Creatures.
* Focused Mind: You gain a +10 bonus to Concentration.
* Natural Understanding: You gain a +2 bonus to Sense Motive, Survival, Lore: Nature, and you gain Vine Mine as a spell-like ability, castable 3/day.
* Ancient songcraft : the spellcaster listening to this song is momentarily attuned with the Weave at a deeper level, giving them a single minded focus allowing him to cast spells up to level 5 as if they were quickened. (Target gains auto-quicken 0-5 for 5 rounds, available only to bards).

=== Word of Protection ===
Specifics: At 4th level, you can use create Shield as a spell-like ability twice per day. 

Use: Selected.

=== Word of Dispel === 
Specifics: At 5th level, you can use Dispel Magic as a spell-like ability twice per day. At 7th level, you cast Greater Dispel Magic instead.

Use: Selected.

=== Word of Might ===
Specifics: At 8th level, you gain the ability to cast Word of Faith as a spell-like ability twice per day. 

Use: Selected.

=== Song of Might === 
Specifics: At 8th level you can use bardic music to cast Word of Faith. The DC is equal to 13 + Olin Gisir's class level + Charisma modifier. The song of might is very strenuous and uses up three of the Olin Gisir's bardic music uses for the day. 

Use: Selected.

=== Word of Power ===
Specifics: At 10th level you draw upon the vast knowledge you amassed and guard to improve the potency of your spells, +1 DC on your spells (not songs).


=== Note ===
All spell-like abilities are cast at the character's caster level.
