Brad the Drab Bard is brought to you by my friend Bart. A few years ago, he was thinking about playing a bard character and was going through several possibilities. He didn’t pick Brad though, so I figured I might as well steal the character for the comic. The name is just too fun not to use 
He likes to make characters with wordplay involved somehow. Like Tspike, a follower of Tsoloroandril. Wielder of tspiked chains and fond of tspiked armor.
Gotta be careful with those wordplay characters. Years ago, I made a spear-wielding elf named “Ambrose Pierce”. After playing him for a while, he mysteriously disappeared. For real. One session, his character sheet was in my campaign binder, the next session it wasn’t. Creepy.
(Years later I found my old character binder, started leafing through to reminisce, and discovered that Ambrose’ character sheet had somehow gotten stuck to the character sheet in front of it. Still creepy. I mean, it was THAT character it happened to.)
