Bards

Bards are musicians, poets, lorekeepers, storytellers, and or any other job that entertrains and informs people. There are many types of bards, from the Northern Skald who serve as keepers of lore and storytellers of war, to the noble Fili, who entertain and enlighten the Royalty of many lands, while often serving as diplomats.

Some Bards use their trade as a cover, engaging in spying or assassination, using their skills to get close to a target. This, however is for the most part rare.

Bards can be as simple as the happy-go-lucky adventuring Minstrel who aides adventurers with his supportive sorcery via song, or as complex as the Bards of Orlais who tend to be knee deep in noble intrigue at most times, working for or against their patron.

Bards are varied, and can not be lumped into a single group.
