Sing the Deeds of Ancient Heroes

vaulted halls or to crowds gathered around great bonfires. They travel to witness great events firsthand and to ensure that the memory of these events doesn’t pass away. With their songs, they inspire new generations to reach the same heights of accomplishment as the heroes of old.

Forgotten Realms: Heroes of Faerûn
Inspire Allies with Primal Tales
The College of the Moon traces its origins to the ancient druidic circles of the Moonshae Isles, who entrusted the first Bards of this tradition with chronicling the
stories of the islands and their people. Bards of this college draw from the isles’ fey magic and the primal power of the moonwells to bolster their allies, protect the natural world, and inspire their bardic works.
