The Bard is a job class in Final Fantasy III. It is gained from the Water Crystal. Bards use their Sing ability to buff their allies or, in the DS version, deal damage to their enemy.

[edit] NES version
Either lowers the enemies' accuracy or makes them run away.
While the Bard cheers, the hit rate of the party increases, raising the amount of damage done. It acts like the spell Haste.
[edit] DS version
Selecting Sing will cause the Bard to sing a song; which song he sings depends on which harp he has equipped. The song will always be performed as the first action of the turn.
