College of the Fool

As bardic colleges go, the College of the Fool is one of the least cohesive, but it's members are often some of the most famous and well-remembered. Instead of boring themselves with studying ancient lore or rehearsing the same dismal tale of heroism over and over again,  bards of the College of Fools simply wish to make as many friends as possible, wherever they go, and share with them their humor and good spirits. They strive to always bring laughter and light into the world. Two or more occasionally meet up to share jokes or hilarious pranks, but mostly they spend their time adventuring with their friends. A Fool cracks wise even amidst the heat of combat, inspires their friends with humor and optimism, and is always a reliable source of inspiration.
