I was thinking today after watching the beginnings of a Dungeon World one shot that was GM’d by Adam Koebel​​, that it would be cool to play a Bard whose talent and performance were in oratory and writing. Basically play him as a revolutionary, a town crier, and pamphleteer.

  1. Aaron Griffin​​ that is amazing! I would love to listen in on that. That fun is what I had in mind. That slight change could lead to some great play motivation (no pun intended).

    I was thinking of Bard almost as politician or social revolutionary. “Brothers! Are we going to let the king’s guard tell us where we can go? We are free men! Use your swords and exercise your FREEDOM!” It would be so over the top and fun and, I think, less intimidating than playing the classic stereotypical singing Bard.

  2. I know this is weird, but I often think of The Mule from Isaac Asimov’s Foundation and Empire when I think of a bard. I just love the idea of his weird instrument (a Visi-Sonor) and his subtle psychic influences.
