Or how about a Plant Creature, shaped like a dragon?

    2:50 silly bard. The joke was that he had 36 kids because he was running an ORPHANAGE, taking care of kids who lost their parents in vicious monster attacks. And the reason he went on this adventure was to earn money for the ophanage, find the cause of these vicious monster attacks and maybe stop them so more children don't end up without parents....like him when he was their age. Music was the only thing that reminded him of his parents, who taught him to play the lyre in the first place, the only thing that brought him joy in life, and he had to rely on it to earn money while growing up on the streets, barely scraping by til his next meal. It's why his stats are low. It's why he is so weak, skinny, clumsy, unintelligent etc. Which is why he wanted to give others a better life

      One of the other members of the party was going to be a rouge who lost his parents at a young age and turned to stealing to survive. But one day, he tried to pickpocket the bard. The bard caught him, but instead of trying to punish him, he took him in and treated him like a son, giving him the love his parents never got to give him. He was moved by this gesture and stopped stealing, instead using his abilities to preform with the bard, doing tricks of sleight of hand to amazing crowds as the bard played accompanying music. Moved by what happened to him, he was ready to travel out with the bard on his noble quest.
      But now that the bard mouthed off, the rouge is just someone who helps the bard kidnap children, still bitter about never knowing his parents.

    I have an idea for a bard who's actually super wholesome. He's really introverted, and hates being the center of attention, but he loves writing and playing music and he's really good at it, so he just gets in the zone and starts playing and forgets people are around. Of course, then he finishes playing and he's super uncomfortable with all the applause and he basically just hides from the crowd. Also, every single time he finishes writing a piece, he sends it over to his sister who training to be a wizard at a wizard academy, because she's the one who taught him to play his first instrument and he misses her.

    This is a really sad stereotype for bards. I love bards, easily my favorite class to play.

It's just annoying when some of us want to be a fun support character. Wonderful video!

      Yep. Just got myself out of what was quickly becoming one of those DnD horror stories because our horny bard had the subtlety of a brick. His entire personality was "I'm charasmstically smiling" and "I have a boner." That's not me summarizing, those are the actual words he used.
      Due to story reasons my level 3 wizard got access to the Black Tentacles spell. Of course all the horny bard heard was "tentacles" so he pestered me over and over again to cast it on him.
      It only got worse when his friend joined. He was playing a Source (it was a Witcher game) and his magical trigger? Sex. Of course.
      I just wanted to go on an adventure, not have to sit there and listen to two dudes erotically role-play. I don't ever want to play a game with a bard in it again. All that anyone ever does is make a horny bard.

He was played as a child type running around with the group and was used to help the party get away with stuff and get discounts "Pwease I would like to get a heawth potion to protect my fweinds". He was cute and I love him. My party even said if anything happened to Box they would kill everyone and destroy the universe. When one of his friends was sad about not getting a card collection he wanted Box sat and made him cards to make him happy. The guy thought he was going to get the Deck of Man Things but it was a trick so Box (not understanding what that was) made him cards that said stuff like "Box will get you the nicest rock around" or "Box will tell you one of his most popular stories".

She lived at home with her "super old" mom (72, but human, so actually old), volunteered at her local library, carried her lute everywhere, and was trying to impress some local human young adults because she wanted to join their band. She was bright pink with frizzy hair and talked like the perkiest 14 year old you've ever met.
