The High King’s Bardic Code
For The High King’s Bardic Code, the character must swear to uphold the spirit and tenets of the High King’s Bardic Code. Although not strictly ONLY for bards and Heralds of the High King, only those in service to the High King’s Heralds Hall are required to take a bound oath. The spirit of the code, as it would apply to local lieges, is typically part of a Bard/herald’s instructions.
- Honor the High King and his vassals

- Serve the College once a year (quest, geas, etc.)
