This was what the young Kobold has aspired to be ever since she was small. (well smaller)
Having hardly any memory of her parents, savor a small music box and them tearfully leaving her with her tribe for some unknown reason.
The tribe would occasionally bring back tattered books and scrolls among the loot they’d snatch from adventurers and travelers. Drawn in by the colorful covers and pictures within she’d often been found looking through them, admiring the heroic tales and figures from what little she could read of them, filling in some details about them with her imagination. After only a few years spent with her tribe, she had left them, inexperienced and feeling isolated from them and their more simple ways of brutal pillaging, stealing, and trap making.
She was found by a large and diverse adventuring party of merry folk in the Krazax mountains, sad, wandering, and alone. She had found a new and more accepting family, and a new name. Growing up around so many different races, she learned a little bit about each of them, as well as the tales of their great adventurers. Some of them were knights, fighting for honor and justice! Some robbing from villainous royalty and giving to the poor and downtrodden. Some slaying or taming great beasts that posed great threats to the world of Verum. All of these tales of heroic’s never got old to her, and it’s highly doubtful they ever will.
One man’s good cheer always stood out to her the most, and still does to this day, dressed in a fanciful blue coat, feathered hat, and a big copper beard covering his face. He always relished the chance to speak proudly of his friends, building them up even above himself. Samson Surewood, the man that inspired her with his strength of wit, character, and music as opposed to physical power. In turn it warmed her little heart when he had told her she had proven a great “Muse” for many a new song for him, a new light that could bring hope into the world of Verum. Despite her small stature and lack of great might, she was taught she could still walk tall with even the mightiest heroes.
While she lived with them in Krazax, learning to sharpen her sword and wit, harnessing the power from within herself to bring fourth magic from her words and music to aid all who need it along with herself. The only way she could truly blossom into becoming a true hero however, was if she traveled outside the safety of her newfound family. With heartfelt goodbyes she would leave her home, after a good fews years living in Krazax she would wander once again on her own. She’d heard of a city, known for great feats of magic! And sand. Lots and lots of sand! But before heading out, a large blue hat with a white feather in it was placed on her head. She’d turned to find Samson had come to see her off, a tear in his eye. This time she would wander off on her own once again, though not feeling the same sting of sadness as she strummed a joyous tune she memorized from the small music box she’d been left from her parents. It was off to a place called Majital to further her prowess in more ways of magic.
As a side note, she found out about “The Seven” from Samson. Like others of her kind, she believes with all her heart one of The Seven was indeed one of her kind. Another thing to inspire her to become a great hero.

Dancing Dreams
- Minor Uncommon:

This temporary HP lasts until your next short or long rest.
The Dragon Force
Attunement required by a Bard - Major Rare:

Hostile creatures within 20 feet of you that can hear the performance make Constitution saving throws against a DC equal to the result of your Performance check, taking 1d6 fire, 1d6 lightning, 1d6 thunder, and 1d6 necrotic damage, or half on a successful save. A creature that dies from this ability has their face melted and disfigured beyond recognition. You can use this ability once before finishing a long rest.
Step Off: Whenever a hostile creature within 40 feet of you targets you or an ally with an attack, you can use your reaction to play a rebuking rift with the guitar at that creature, dealing 1d10 fire and 1d10 lightning damage unless they succeed on a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw. You can use this ability three times before finishing a short or long rest.

Trinket - Major Uncommon -
This small amber coloured rosin cylinder seems to glow gold very subtly at its centre, and has bright gold lacing elaborately throughout its surface, especially near the top end. Amongst the spacings in the gold there is a musical symbol-esque rune almost in the shape of a musical stave running down the side of the cylinder, and a large rune on the top’s surface in the shape of a treble clef. The item’s fancy design makes it look perfect for a skilled fancy bard, though it looks nothing like any known instrument.
When holding this trinket, you can use an item interaction to activate or deactivate the trinket by double tapping your thumb on the musical rune. When activated, you can use an item interaction to slide your thumb up or down on the musical rune to a choice of one of four threshold levels. Any sound originating within 6 inches of the top of the trinket is amplified by the threshold amount.
Threshold 1 - The Trinket amplifies sound by 1.5x
Threshold 2 - The Trinket amplifies sound by 2x
Threshold 3 - The Trinket amplifies sound by 2.5x
Threshold 4 - The Trinket amplifies sound by 3x
