Also I remember the Pied Piper of Hamelin, who could drag hordes of rats and mice after his music and off a cliff
So we can summon rats to follow us and fill up a chasm so we can cross? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
It still only has uses in specific locations in the game. But I suppose the same can be technically said for
Lock Pick and
Pickpocket and
Alchemy. So a
Musician skill would provide alternate means to progress through certain areas. Could be good.
I like the out-of-body idea. I'm just imagining something like the posession ability in
Abe's Odessey. You can possess enemies (where you can get away with it) and move around the map starting from their location (which may be unreachable) and using their abilities (which can include flying and weapons). In
Divine Divinity 2, if you need to get past an army of Orcs, but don't have the ability, you can posess one of them and carry the poison barrels over to the army and break them, killing them all. You'd get away with it because you have the perfect disguise.
