All Bards Party
« on: November 19, 2016, 10:18:16 am »
May your music shatter the heavens!




Bard's College guild master slams doors open and stomps in, his face red from anger.

"I have had ENOUGH! No more happy birthday songs 365 times per year! No more same wedding march every single time! No more dead ass boring funeral songs or stupid charity parties!" he shouts.

"Once again I heard Adventures Guild is going a dangerous world saving mission, and once again NOT A SINGLE BARD WAS INVITED! I say FUCK THOSE GUYS! They are leaving tomorrow to hunt and kill the Orc Über Lord who's raising an army! I say we go today and beat orcs so badly that next thousand orc generations will shit their pants when they hear so much as a bird singing! LET'S SHOW THEM HOW A REAL BARD FIGHTS!" Maestro jumps on first table and swings his mighty electric guitar axe high above his head.

"We are better than those sissies in their iron shells, fighters and paladins! We do not need to hide in shadows like those pussies, rogues and rangers! We fight our own fights up close, unlike those pansies in their 'magical' robes! WE ARE BARDS AND WE'RE FUCKING AWESOME!"

"Bards! Pick up your instrument and LET'S ROCK THE WORLD!"




This game is going to be somewhat episodic. First episode is what was stated; find orc army and exterminate with extreme prejudice. Shouldn't take too long. Once the goal is reached the game goes on hiatus until I figure what's next goal for the bard party.


Yep, with such a simple premise, let's get started. All you need to get started is to claim your instrument, but there's few rules about instruments.

  • It must be unique in the party. For example author avatar Guild Master has electric guitar, so nobody else can choose electric guitar. You can, however, pick acoustic quitar.
  • It must be something you can carry by yourself. Otherwise you will be left behind.
  • If it is slightly unusual or not commonly seen, give me link to some article describing the instrument. Wikipedia link works fine.
  • Bard without functional instrument is not a bard, so take care to not break it! If you do break your instrument, then you better fuck off real quick to get a replacement. In other words you will be out of the game for few turns.


Alright, let's start slaughtering our way towards army of the Orc Über Lord.

A fiddle? That's basically a violin and we got one violing already.




Maestro whacks message on orchestra room walls using his trusty axeguitar: WENT TO KILL ORCS. CATCH UP WITH US IF YOU ARE BORED WITH THE USUAL THREE SONG REPERTOIRE.

"Alright guys, lets go!"

The band marches out of the College to north. Random by passers inquire if there's going to be a live performance somewhere to which maestro responds with smile "Sure, later" and hands out a "Join Bards' College" pamphlet.

After hour of fast paced walking the troupe is accosted by group of bandits. There's around 50 men and women, armed with swords, bows, daggers, spears and other assorted martial weapons. They have you completely surrounded, leaving no avenue of escape. Not that you really need to worry about their real ability to harm you.

"Oh, it's bards! Hoy boys, give us your all your valuables and we only smash your face, you sissy string pluckers!"

in that case:

Harmonica man, Reporting for duty!

Play the highest note a harmonica is capable of and damage their ears.
