Bards (Not the tag)

Introduction
Bards are celestial beings created out of pure notes, Once a bard becomes to life they get assigned a specific instrument at birth which shares the soul of the bard themselves, IF the instrument gets damaged in a way that can't be played anymore or the bards body receives great damage they would simply transform into a dusty like substance with sparkles (Also commonly known as "stardust").

Their appearance and colors (Eye color, Hair color) may vary by the date they were "born" in, for example: Winter, Summer, Fall, and so on.

For the moment bards have been mostly seen in Eldham around Serrona but there could be more in other regions of the known world (Both Eldham and Rathnir), their origins is mostly hidden in folk lore and in a old book which bards themselves mention but yet not found (The Tablature).

They to be able to use symphonies to change people's mood from sad to happy in an instance and possibly to even worsen it by playing their compositions

The Tablature
For the bards The Tablature is a sort of bible which not only contains their religion beliefs but also traditional compositions, tales say that a Human, now possibly deceased, wanted to study the bards culture and history which by it self can be very difficult since most of it is still now a days clouded in folk lore and riddles, but nonetheless the nameless Human after long travels and investigations managed to gather more or less what the Bards believe to be pretty close to their past, as a sigh of gratitude towards the human, the Bards decided to adopt the scripture into their religion and made several versions of it.

Traditions
Bards traditions are mostly around the changing of the seasons, when a season is about to end they would usually gather and be together offering gifts and wishing good luck to each other.

The gifts would consist of mostly food or other objects that are considered to bring good luck to the recipient for example: Gems, Corals, Flowers and other objects which have a different meaning.

Bards are also very exited and open to welcome other species whenever they would like to take part into their tradition, they explained that their spiritual duty is to bring happiness and peace whenever is possible, no matter the race or origins, especially during the seasons end.

Behavior
They would often be very loyal to people they would consider friends and close ones and whenever possible reject aggressions, they would also have most of the time a kind and soft tone towards the other person.

The instruments they were born with signifies for them as an actual living being which deservers respect and needs to be taken care of every day, as such they are seen with it most of the time.

The instruments
They type of instrument assigned to a bard depends on their temperament and season they were born in, but instruments seen assigned to a bard are: Flute, Violin, Piccolo, Lute, Harp, and possibly more.

Wars
War for Bards has been the reason why they are almost gone and almost disappeared, their celestial body was not made for combat and the fact that their souls are bonded with their instrument makes the whole thing even worse, in the past Bards were used as secret weapons, as explained in The Tablature by greedy lords and kings to give them a combat advantage with their abilities to influence people mood and minds.

Due to the wars, lords developed their own kind of symphonies for bards to play and use against people when played, such melodies are called by the Bards as "hunted melodies", specifically made to disturb and haunt the enemy's minds, melodies were not use solely as a weapon but also as a mean to rally armies in brutal circumstances.

Unfortunately during these wars there were many deaths, both for Humans and bards, but Bards took the largest death toll, such events brought the attention of 12 entities which to this day are poorly understood, they were called "The white ones" by the bards and apparently their origins are explained inside the Tablature, The white ones took the remaining bards in the wars and kept them in an unknown location until Humans forgot about them completely.

The white ones
Apparently there are 12 in total, but it has been said by the bards that there might be less due the fact that they were the firsts ones and "time claimed them" over the centuries, even bards themselves don't know much about them.

The present
Now a days bards seem to pop here and there travelling from city to city to bring happiness and good luck to the citizens, there are rumors about a city where they are hiding and trying to rebuild what was lost during the wars and the many deaths, only time will tell what's going to be the fate of their story.
