Archetype: Skald (bard): A rogue<br />

and spellcaster, very quick, who affects<br />

many combatants. The Skald brings<br />

colour to most any culture. The Skalds<br />

are bards who have been blessed by<br />

<strong>the</strong> Mead <strong>of</strong> Poetry. This mead was<br />

made when a magical being named<br />

Kvasir was murdered by two Dvergar,<br />

and his blood was mixed with honey<br />

to produce <strong>the</strong> magical mead. It was later<br />

taken by a giant who kept it all for himself.<br />

But Odin stole it, and while in eagle form,<br />

flying over <strong>the</strong> realms <strong>of</strong> Yggdrasil, some<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> mead dropped down and touched<br />

some living beings. Those beings learned<br />

how to weave magical songs called Spell<br />

Songs...<strong>the</strong>y go by <strong>the</strong> name <strong>of</strong> Skald.<br />

They sing battle ballads that unnerve<br />

opponents and bolster <strong>the</strong> morale <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

companions... All that <strong>the</strong>y need are <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

voices, but with instruments <strong>the</strong>y can bend<br />

and shape <strong>the</strong>ir magic to astound <strong>the</strong>ir<br />

audiences.<br />

Backstory: Fjori has always been a carefree dreamer.<br />

Blessed with an indomitable spirit, his outlook<br />

is contagious. He has taken up <strong>the</strong> skaldic arts<br />

so he could share his blessings and good fortune.<br />

Wanderer Skalds devote <strong>the</strong>ir life to creating great<br />

adventures to feed <strong>the</strong>ir sagas. The Wanderer seeks<br />

out increasingly dangerous adventures to find his<br />

place in history.<br />

The Poet Skald is one who knows how to have a good<br />

time. He woos maidens for a night and earns free ale<br />

and his stay at taverns using skills in music and song.<br />

The Mystic Skald is intrigued by <strong>the</strong> Mead <strong>of</strong> Poetry<br />

that granted him his Spell Song powers. He wishes<br />

to delve deep into this art to understand its source.<br />
