Naming a tabaxi bard
A tabaxi bard carries tabaxi naming tradition into the bard's calling. Tabaxi names are poetic and image-rich, drawn from the natural world — clouds, rivers, stars, jade.

A bard — a wandering performer who trades in songs and secrets — tends toward melodic, memorable names built to be announced on a stage.
