Your past is shrouded in a fog, you can't recall anything beyond receiving that strange instrument. Whether it be a gift or a curse, it has parted you from your past life. Now you are simply wandering the world, pleasing the ears of many with the alluring songs you sing, and the intricate rhythms you weave. However, your music is a dangerously spun web, and when delighting the ears of a crowd, it only ends with chaos. Perhaps a guard has gone missing, or a noble has been found dead in the town hall...
But how would you know that? You've forgotten already.

You can always find a place to perform, usually in an inn or tavern but possibly with a circus, at a theater, or even in a noble’s court. At such a place, you receive free lodging and food of a modest or comfortable standard (depending on the quality of the establishment), as long as you perform each night. In addition, your performance makes you something of a local figure. When strangers recognize you in a town where you have performed, they typically take a liking to you.
