College of Psalms

Bards of the College of Psalms are not revered throughout the nations not for their knowledge of many things, but rather their devotion to the telling of story. 

 Many bards may not choose to associate with the pantheon of gods and goddesses as a source of their power, but College of Psalms bards choose to live by the codes, morals, and ethics of a higher power. Going along the countryside, you may see them travelling alongside a missionary to regale them with music of their god. Not a devoted priest or warrior-champion of a god or goddess, bards of this college focus on the inspiration of the common folk as they had been inspired themselves.
