A role that is often understated and sometimes flat-out forgotten about is that of the musician. While some people would insist such a role is superfluous, any pirate worth their salt knows you can't sail the open seas without laughter and music to blaze your trail.
Musicians keep their crew happy with performance, song, and dance. They lift the tired spirits and weary bodies of their crewmates after gruesome fights or violent storms, revivifying them with joy and hope to carry on with their journey through any hardships they may face.
A good musician knows that an adventure is only worth it if everyone is smiling at the end of the day, and through their performances, they make sure that no matter what dangers await them, the crew will be able to face it with their spirits and courage ablaze.
- Skill Proficiencies: Performance, choose one from Acrobatics, Animal Handling, Deception, History or Persuasion
- Tool Proficiencies: One instrument of your choice
- Equipment: A set of common clothes, a costume, an instrument of your choice, and a pouch containing 50 000 beri
Your musical talent lends itself well to currying favor. You can always find a place to perform in towns and settlements, such as taverns and inns, and you and your crew can stay for free in such establishments as long as you perform there every night.
Additionally, you may eventually gain a reputation unrelated to your pirating activities, earning you fame as a skilled musician. When fans of your music recognize you in towns, they react favorably to seeing you and may help you in your endeavours, do not if doing so would endanger them somehow.
