Heh, for one reason or another, I cannot consider the bards as being actual mages; but they certainly are, game-wise speaking.

I wonder if giving them a random path, in addition to their Nature-1, would be a good idea; that could represent the knowledge they gained while travelling, and give them something more compared to the Daughters of Avalon (one of the best researchers available). Nature-1/Random-1 bards would become a bit like the Masters of the Way, with a different role. Hmm... Oh, got to watch out for those wild tangents.
