Bards are a fun and versatile class to play in Baldur's Gate 3 thanks to their natural charisma, their versatility, and their role of filling the gaps in the party's skillsets. One of the spellcasters, Bards use music to cast magic instead of drawing it from an innate talent, knowledge, or channeling it from a god. Because of their musical talents, they can play a variety of musical instruments, and are talented in storytelling and wordplay.
