In his younger days, the Bard travelled the far reaches of Sanctuary as a poet, musician and storyteller. He quite the performer, able to rouse even the most dour soul. He had a restless spirit and lived off the people in the cities and villages through charm and wit until he wore out his welcome, then journeyed on. He was an expert at getting himself into trouble, and just as expert in getting himself out of it, be it through wit, cleverness, or muscle. If his stories were to be believed, he was a renowned hero that had experienced many tragic and comedic events in every corner of Sanctuary. He was also always interested in lore and history, and loved to spend a good amount of time learning the local histories and peculiarities of the places he visited and often, before he willingly or unwillingly departed, knew more about the local goings on than most of the locals did. He loved a good time, and was a regular feature at some of the seedier outfits around.

After that, he finally was able to, no, he HAD to get back on his feet and do something. He was able to perform and again, but now he had purpose. Toughened by his experiences, he set about trying to really make a difference. As he travelled now, he helped people. If they were in trouble, he would give them strength and stand with them against it. If they were lost, he would guide them and see them through. He fought the darkness wherever he found it and inspired hope in the hopeless. He had the strength and abilities now to become a subject of songs, not just a singer of songs, but legacy never entered his thoughts. Perhaps those whose songs were sung never had those thoughts either. One day, hearing of the troubles in Tristram, be it by sword or song or spirit, he set forth to shine light upon the darkness once again. Perhaps he could stumble upon a particular group of nasties again. Now, he was ready for them.

The Bard is an incouragable romantic and braggart that has roamed the far corners of Sanctuary living off of his wit, charm, and deftness, and if his stories are to be believed, he is a renowned hero that has experienced many tragic and comedic events in every one of them. His gallant demeanor and careless abandon hide a tortured soul, however. Having wondered farther than many have dreamed, he has seen the darkness hiding in every shadow and the empty eyes of those who the darkness has touched. He is quite the studious one, having spent a great deal of time researching histories and arcane lore for his art and an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. While he really isn't quite the unstoppable blademaster and marksman his bravado would lead one to believe, he is quite skilled in a variety of weapons. When your mouth can't get you out of a situation, your arm sure better do the job!
