Unfortunately, Death Metal doesn't get much play in this sleepy, peaceful, actually kind of boring kingdom. Of course not. It's tough inventing a genre on your own, and it doesn't help when all the instruments you've tried up to this point don't match the brutality necessary for a dark and heavy performance.
My coin only seems to be enough to get me to the next run-down village, and it's dwindling fast.
To make matters worse, my newest lute is not normal. It never stays in tune, it's barely holding together, and it keeps whispering to me. Over and over, demands for vengeance and murder echo in my head, with the promise that I'll find the sound I need if I just listen to the voices.
So what's a starving bard to do?
Performances of a Death Metal Bard is a brutal fantasy adventure inspired by The Witcher and Metalocalypse, merging the episodic travels of a musical elf with the darkness, blood, and raw riffs of the heaviest metal the kingdom has ever seen.
