Just here to say that I'm one of the current members of Lansquenet, and I'm very excited to see our Free Company open its ranks to fresh blood.
My character, Aumeric Chassebel, is an actor and entertainer in the ranks of the company! He's a naive sweetheart who usually ends up in the role of the "heroine" in plays, and absolutely out of his depth on the shadier backstage activities of his fellows. I suppose that's one of the things about Lansquenet- it's a place where you can absolutely have your character focus on just acting or music or other performance, or just on the criminal side of things behind the scenes, or dabble in both, and be totally at home! So there's no need to feel intimidated if you've got a thief or a thug who can't memorize lines to save their life, or a delicate artist who has no aptitude for picking pockets or roughing up competitors. There's absolutely a place for both sorts, and anybody in-between.
