Crimson Daggers — Art forum

“Though people usually see them in tavern, the bards spend lots of time traveling around, collecting lost music, interpreting ancient books and learn new songs and tales. They rely on their own intuition and inspiration, rather than traditional rules.”

(Not limited to humanoid characters. Be creative and have fun!)

Here is my version of "The Bard"
Pirate Bard

The Prompt: “Though people usually see them in tavern, the bards spend lots of time traveling around, collecting lost music, interpreting ancient books and learn new songs and tales. They rely on their own intuition and inspiration, rather than traditional rules.”

My Brief: "The Hermes Android is specifically designed to analyse the aural responses of its audience and play accordingly. Establishments normally utilize them to draw in traffic and create an enjoyable atmosphere. Soon after they gained popularity however, an anomaly appeared in their programming. They began to play aggressively, inciting brawls and lustful romps in the more finer venues. The lower classes adopted these rejected models graciously, but those that were not reassigned were often found in the streets, by the docks, or roaming wild, playing tragic and beautiful compositions, singing wordless hymns that were beyond human ability."

Slapper didn't make it to the poll?

EDIT: Some slight confusion, it looks like slapper didn't submit on time.

Whoops. My bad, thought that might have been the reason. :)
