Who: Cielo and anybody in the area
When: March 15th, midday
Where: Plaza
Style: Your choice, I'll match you
Status: Open

Those who pass by the plaza today, whether they're battle weary adventurers or normal civilians, may hear the sounds of music in the air (and perhaps feel their magic statistics raise by 1). If they choose to follow it, they'll find Vatheon's only bard with dreadlocks standing near a fountain. His bard outfit is mostly blue with accents of pink, purple, and green and in the classy cap on his head, there's an orange feather. In his hands is a pale purple stringed instrument connected to a small amplifier.

Is that...a guitar he's playing?

Wrong! It's too small. And it doesn't sound quite right for a guitar.

No, Cielo is playing a ukulele.

An electric ukulele.

He's pretty good at it too.

Care to stop and listen? Dance to the music? Chat? Maybe whip out your own instrument and play along? He'd welcome any company.

Cielo ponders what Argilla says for a moment, trying to figure out the best way to explain it.

"It has to do with the way I sing," he finally says. "The words don't matter as much as how it sounds."

The way he sings . . . Argilla thinks about that, too. It's a little hard to wrap her mind the fact that the words don't matter at all, but he does have some experience with these powers by now. He must have basis for what he says.

"You mean things like how loudly you sing, or how fast?"

Cielo snaps his fingers.

"Ja, exactly like that! Or if they're happy songs or sad songs."

It was something he noticed rather quickly with his powers of observation. People suddenly felt stronger or faster when they listened to him.

Argilla smiles, feeling her curiosity sated, and she nods in understanding. Vaguely she wonders if he could play Sera's song now with the same effects -- but then she catches the eyes of some of the audience as she's turning back towards him.

"I should let you continue, then."

He should be the one to choose what he plays, though taking requests is always an idea.

How can he refuse such a direct invitation? Picking up the instrument again, Cielo places a softer, slower tune. While it's true he loves upbeat and energetic songs, he also has a strong appreciation to something that is calm and soothing.

Playing something like that on an electric ukulele is no easy feat, but his coral given gifts manage it with little difficulty.
