Calling All Bards!

Post » Thu Oct 10, 2013 7:15 pm

Would there be any interest in having a thread for players wanting to roleplay bards in Skyrim? I thought it might be fun to share with others a Bard's adventures in Skyrim, especially the concerts :smile:

The only requirement would be using the "http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/31680/?" mod found on Skyrim Nexus. That mod has a great bard class progression where you get better by playing at inns and taverns and performing for the Jarls. One may also want to use the "http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/9557//?" Mod.

Any interest in this?

My Bard used to hit a drum against walls, the floor, chairs and tables.

I don't think Skyrim has much of a way for a bard. Skyrim is too oriented towards pure violence to achieve your goals. It would have to be more like UO to play a traditional bard character.

Spend years of your life studying at an arts college then make next to nothing working at a some dump bar full of drunks and generally unpleasant people.

Reminds me of life.

I'm good at songwriting, but I don't have a good gaming PC just yet to use that mod. But if you want a roleplay, you'd do it here:

Wow, too bad I'm not playing Marianne, my bard/Imperial spy anymore.

Nah. Sounds like too much work, and I don't want to work, I just want to bang on the drum all day.

.....Actually, I do like the idea, but I can't, due to playing on PS3. I still sing stuff like Blind Guardian and Stratovarius while playing, though.

I just RP that my Solitude-dwelling character spends part of her time with the bards at the college.
