The Troubadours

A group of twelve Nabatan bards who held considerable cultural and political sway in Nabata. There likely wasn’t a soul on the continent who wasn’t familiar with their stirring music - such was the magnitude of their popularity. Some of their members even enjoyed celebrity status on a more individual basis; Kjoll, for example, was considered a walking good luck charm, and his performances often enjoyed particularly large crowds. Above all, the Troubadours were voices of harmony in Nabata, serving as a cultural touchstone that everyone could rally around.

Following the Cleaving, many of the Troubadours' whereabouts were unknown, but several of them, including their current leader Hanon, found themselves near the town of Tolia. Hanon seeks to locate and unite the missing members of the band, an interest keenly shared by Team Cexy, and Cecil most of all.

The known Troubadours include Hanon, Karst, Roland, and Sky in Tolia; Demir, Gaius, Kjoll, and Nix in other parts of Simuhay; and Arnum, who has departed the group in general.

Koebi's Journal

"Listening to the Troubadors play, absolutely wasted on booze and wizard drugs, watching Cascade's Claim from the center of Neriad with Croft... yeah, I miss those days."

Excerpt from Cecil's Journal

"This group was absolutely legendary. I never got the chance to meet with them in the Before Times, but I heard that their music literally changed lives. It was an honor and a privilege to befriend Hanon and the rest of his group. I can only hope to become just as talented as them someday.

I'll find the rest of them, no matter what it takes."
