    I'm hopeful I can get a bard to constantly sing Red Diamond. In fact, I'd like to fill a house with a choir of bards singing red diamond.

    That would be a masterful thing to troll a guild hall with, that's for sure.

    Of course!

    Here's my take on the subject, and there are countless others that have written about this. So let's hope they implement something like this soon!

    There's a lot of requests and desire for this and I agree with them.

    Would be great to have some NPC's which play the songs from around Tamriel.

    A Vvardenfell Bard
    A Tamriel Bard
    A Summerset Bard

    There's three types I can think of!

    Bards are always a welcome site, especially in end game pve. I would suggest , bard healers and bard dps; obviously Lots of buffs for the whole group.

    I see bards suggested often as well as Necromancers

    Bard NPCs would definitely add some life to our painstakingly decorated homes!

    Here are some other interesting ideas of NPCs to add:

    • Cook - Mimics recipes you've learned. Makes it for guests if given the ingredients to make it. Bind on pickup food.
    • Groundskeeper - Stores furniture.
    • Guest - Can be set like furniture. Allow multiple. Assigned personalities (i.e Happy, Sleepy, etc). Custom Names.
    • Smith/Crafter - Animated to perform their respective craft where set in home.
    • Housekeepers - Perform cleaning animations where set in home.
    .
    Homes need more animation/interaction in general. Decorating is lots of fun, but the homes are still missing that drop of "Life" everyday chores and comforts provide to a dwelling. Some sort of system that draws people to homes (whether theirs or others) needs to be implemented.

    I love that we can purchase and decorate beautiful homes with all sorts of awesome stuff, but what good is it to put so much time, effort and money into it if doesn't draw players to stick around in them?

    Just prior to the release of Summerset, I was wandering around the balcony of the Alinor Townhouse, when I heard a bard singing below, as though the song was travelling from the town below. I was delighted!

    To my disappointment, it was a Bug, and one that has since been fixed.

    Anyways, yes to Bards, please.

    "Starry Eyed Bride of Alinor" is actually pretty good.

    Nope. I want a bardess. Bards don't seem to know when they are bad.

    Edit: in any case, the term for what you see in ESO is more properly troubadour or minstrel. They all seem to be migrant and exclusive to taverns. Seriously, while bards do sometime sing, it's still the telling of some epic and not song in the sense we mean today.
