College of the Gospel

The college of the gospel is a school for those who spread the good words and tales of the divine. These bards learn ways of inspiring others through their faith. Often taught in temples by clerics and priests, these bards specialize in spreading their faiths and in telling stories of the gods.

Bards of the gospel are often welcomed in taverns and temples alike as they sing songs and evangelize to the masses. In battle Bards of the Gospel support their allies through their divine connection, making sure they can keep on fighting despite their wounds.
