Comedian

Everyone needs a little light in their life, some entertainment to melt away the monotony of daily life. Some people get that from watching players spin yarns, or listening to bards weave ballads. Your sharp wit and penchant for finding the absurd in every day events has inspired you into the life of a travelling comedian. 

You journey from town to town (because it's easier to change the audience than the material) and spread mirth and insult. You always leave before your routine runs out, or your welcome does. It's always smart to find out who is loved and who is hated in a town before you start your playful ribbing, because one wrong word taken the wrong way has more than once ended up with you facing the wrong end of a sword. That is the way of the life you have chosen however, and you revel in it.

Skill Proficiencies: You can choose two Cha based skills

Tool Proficiencies: You have proficiency in your choice of an instrument, a game, or a disguise kit. Whichever you choose should be considered to be a part of your act, no matter how small.

Languages:

In your travels you have found it advantageous to speak another language to broaden the horizons of places you can perform, and to pepper your routine with more colourful insults.

Equipment: You gain a set of traveler's clothes, a reusable poster with your likeness on it that proclaims "Tonight, and for one night only!", your choice of a musical instrument, game or disguise kit,  and a playbill from night of the greatest performance you ever had.
