[[File:Kromartie and Devil.jpg|thumb|245x245px|A tune too catchy for mortal ears...]] | |||
Legends tell of a young aspiring bard named Kromartie who wanted more than anything to join one of the illustrious [[List of Champerty Institutions|Bardic Colonies of Champerty]]. Though he was not particularly gifted at any musical instrument, he practiced and practiced for years in preparation. Finally the day arrived: he auditioned for a spot in each of the Colonies, but was rejected by each and every one. Bitterness grew in the young man until -- seemingly by chance -- he encountered a malevolent spirit. Though he knew in his heart of hearts the wrongness of it, out of resentment he made a deal with this spirit -- in truth, a [[devil]]. The devil persuaded Kromartie to sign his soul in a pact. In exchange he would be awarded an amazing feat: “the ability to play melodies both impossibly beautiful and irresistibly catchy”. Satisfied, the devil departed leaving the young bard to test out his newfound power. | Legends tell of a young aspiring bard named Kromartie who wanted more than anything to join one of the illustrious [[List of Champerty Institutions|Bardic Colonies of Champerty]].
