minstrel#

Minstrels bring the harmony of music and lilting melodies to the battlefield unconventionally to boost the morale of their comrades or later in their training as a much more discrete and unfathomable way: battle. Minstrels are generally happy, lively and bring joy to their comrades. Their presence in battle with its boost in morale and stats is always a welcome. Minstrels can bring a battle from the midst of losing to a winning situation. They are the support strings of any group and should never be considered less then fully capable warriors as well.
