Personal history
Rolomir set out from his homeland of Oreskos, to explore the wider world in pursuit of the Arts (and to escape the bullying of his fellow Leonin)
He journeyed all across Scatterhome, falling in with adventurers, bandits and everything in between.
Eventually he was recognised for the natural talent he is by "the legendary" Satyr Bard, Moce Itbaso.
Moce taught Roly how to read an audience, when to pick up the tempo and when to break it down.
Roly was lucky enough to study under Moce for free.
Well, almost for free.
Occassionally Moce would require Roly to 'act' like a fearsome and intimidating beast warrior, more akin to the public perception of a Leonin.
Moce assured Roly this was only ever to help pusuade former pupils to pay their outstanding fees.
Roly often reflected on how Moce seemed to have a lot of former pupils with outstanding fees. And how most seemed rather wealthy and not at all bardic.
Roly graduated from the prestigious Itbaso School of Bardicity in an unusual fashion.
He awoke to find Moce gone and a note which read "Roly, I have nothing more to teach you, congratulations you have Graduated".
Curiously the note was signed off with bloody fingerprints instead of Moce's usual signature...but Roly didn't care. He had graduated!!
Now Roly has set his sights on Tir na nOrc, where he seeks fame and accolades. His hope is to fall in with a group of adventurers, so that their tales inspire a portfolio of works which Roly hopes will some day win him a BAFTAS - Bardic Awards for Totally Awesome Sonnets.
