Requiem of Servitude (Su): This performance behaves as the Necromantic Servant focus power of an occultist of your level, except that the servant remains as long as the cairnsinger continue the performance.

While using requiem of servitude, all undead under the cairnsinger’s control that can perceive her gain a +1 competence bonus to attack roll and damage roll. At 5th level, and every six bard levels thereafter, this bonus increases by +1, to a maximum of +4 at 17th level.
