College of the Divine Choir

These Bards are devoted to the music and song as a divine calling. Filling churches and temples with choral music as well as instrumental accompaniment. Bards of this college specialize in inspiring others through their performances rather than sermons and religious rites.

Divine Truth Bards gather in churches, temples, pilgrimage sites and the like to share the divine glory of music, poetry, and song. They share inspirational hymns and poetic parables demonstrating the divine spark in all beings.

These Bards often pray to divine sources of inspiration such as Milil (Forgotten Realms), Olidammara (Greyhawk), Branchala (Dragonlance), Boldrei (Eberron), Corellon Larethian (Elf), Yondalla (Halfling), Apollo (Greek), Bes & Hathor (Egyptian), and Balder (Norse). However, unlike Clerics they gain no direct power from these divines, rather they study and practice to find the essence of the power of these divinities within everyone. In this way the Bards of Divine Truth are more akin to biblical scholars than to the clergy.
