Saad the traveling minstrel

Saad is a widely traveled wandering minstrel in East Colassia. Relative to other Scarterran Musicians he doesn't shirk from leaving the beaten path, so he often travels to relatively remote areas. Areas that don't see musicians of caliber very often.   He is not hostile against the Nine, but he is not especially pious, which is relatively uncommon for a musician traveling through strange and often dangerous places.   Because he has been to almost every corner of East Colassia, making him a good POV character to provide a relatively unbiased view of different people and places. Most importantly, the Midlandia stereotypes sidebar.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Saad was one of so called "Nike babies" born into humble circumstances and feeling pressure to make something of himself.   Saad was born into a family of herders in the Principality of Midlandia. He didn't hate animal herding, but it clashed with his artistic soul and he preferred chasing musical excellence over chasing loose goats. He also yearned for adventure.   What cemented his decision to leave home was that he was the youngest child in a large family and wasn't really in a position expected to inherit much. He traveled around East Colassia playing music and moonlighting as an adventurer picking up a lot of survival and combat skills along the way.   Very few people of in their mid-twenties have seen as much as he has.

Employment

Saad is a musician by trade, but he often travels to places where there isn't many paying customers requiring him to do other things essentially making him a freelance adventurer.

Saad is only fluent Common but he can "get by" in a number of other languages, and the continent East Colassia has a lot of wide variants of Common which he can navigate fairly well. He can convincingly fake being from a different land by mimicking the foreign accent.
