College of Zen

Bards from the Collage of Zen prefer to live much calmer lives, they are all around knowledgeable in the secrets of true tranquillity, specialising in arts like small bonsai trees, zen gardens, calligraphy or painting. Whether it's to live a peaceful life or strive away from chaotic surroundings, these bards typically prefer to live on outskirts of settlements or within quiet societies.

There are many ways to achieve the unwinding zen of mind however most of these research on their own or live from under the wing of a mentor. There are certain groups and societies of these people whom share their art with each other, gather tips and new ideas. Inspire each other and generally help one another. A lot of outsiders consider these gatherings hippie-like and are confused by how generous these typically shut off people can be.
