Bardic Alignment Chart

Lawful Good

She stood at the head of an army,

surveying the enemy's forces.

She steeled herself, lifted

her drumsticks and led them

with a steady, rousing beat.

Neutral Good

She was a bard.

She could influence kings

or incite riots with a single tune.

Mostly she sang about

treating yourself softly.

Chaotic Good

She wielded humor

like a whip, leaving smiles

like welts on the faces

of those graced with her wit.

Lawful Neutral

She sang until her lungs bled

and still she wheezed out lyrics,

mournful and aching.

But for all the magic in her songs,

she could not bring herself

to raise the dead.

True Neutral

She turned none away,

every traveler received a bed

and a meal and the chance

to listen to her sing. Her words

painted visions of the past

and future.

Chaotic Neutral

She performed for packed stadiums

spreading a sweet addiction

for her voice.Smoke billowed

from her gaping mouth to thunderous applause.

Lawful Evil

In service to her vile king,

she spun glorious tapestries

for the court with her song.

They marveled, unaware

of the artificial loyalty

being spelled upon them.

Neutral Evil

She wanted to compose in peace

and ignored the walking wounded

clawing at her door, crawling over

the decomposing corpses of those

that came before them, begging

to be healed.

Chaotic Evil

She played her pied pipe

in the town square for coppers

and the townsfolk tolerated

her begging with barely concealed

disdain. Until the morning

they awoke and their children

were gone.
