Bards are travelling musicians and storytellers, living a life on the road, travelling from place to place, earning their keep through story and song. While possessing some skills with the blade and the bow, Bards do not possess the martial prowess of Warriors and Knights; nor do they possess the arcane spell casting abilities of Wizards. However, Bards possess a unique set of skills and talents, allowing them to fill an important niche in the adventuring party.
