I just realized Nico Robin in One Piece could work as a dnd style Bard.
Bards are often described as Skalds, storytellers and keepers of legend. Bards often have variety of skills, and can fit into different roles (from social roles and combat), plus the are warriors of Blade and Magics.
Robin is a Skald keeping an ancient song alive.............
A Warrior of Magics and Fist.
An Infiltrator and Entertainer.
Robin is a Bard.

I was discussing memes with my professional journalist brother and linguist sister-in-law, and we realized that millennials are like Icelandic skalds of the Viking age: resource-poor, but valuable for cultural exports.

Delissandro learns that he loves Colin. Deli also learns he loves Karna. These loves, he learns, are different but no less impactful. Both he also learns, more than a little painfully, a little too late. 
His love for Colin is tinged with boyhood and want. He wants to be known. He wants the meatlands to be free. He wants to aid in the war and play the political games that his mother refuses to do so. He wants and he’s willing. If he believed in The Bulb, he’d might even say it’s his destiny. 
So he names Colin his Skald. His trustworthy advisor. He wants Colin. He doesn’t know in what way yet. The man ten years (at least) his senior. He’s but a boy. He has no idea what up or down is. How to quantify his want, how to understand his want. He wants. So he must have. This is something he is unwilling to compromise on. 
Colin is his Skald. He is close to him, always. That makes Deli happy. His Skald is never apart from him. They are always close, always talking. Two years is more than enough time to form a bond forged in fire. So he thinks. 
Deli wants Colin with him. Colin, however, does not want to be apart of Deli’s plans. Not anymore. A bond forged in fire, he thinks, too bad the welding was thin.
His love for Karna is a slow thing. Anything else, and it would be weird, anything more...he wishes that there was more. He doesn’t notice it at first. Of course he doesn’t. Each time he sees her it’s hard to reconcile the person she’s become in the years they have been away from the person she was before. She is a 14 year old girl, and then suddenly she is 16, and then suddenly it’s been five years and she’s nearing 21. Each visage is different from the last. Hungry, rotting. Hungry and lanky. Hungry and beautiful. 
He calls her Skald, but inside she is just Karna. Her name ricochet's around his brain every time he lays down. Every time they win a battle together. Every time. It circles. It crescendo’s. Karna, Karna, Karna. 
Deli knows about want. He’s never been good at figuring out what it means for him. It tangles with his missing limb, his old want for his Skald Colin, when he was but a boy. It changes and morphs. But there is war. 
Ultimately, he wants to be slammed down big style. This he thinks, is the crux of the problem. He’s never been slammed down big style. That is what he truly wants.
With Karna.
Not Skald Karna. Just Karna. Karna who always comes when he calls. Karna who gave him her eye. Karna, Karna, Karna, Karna.
Within the same moment he realizes that he wants Karna she is gone. 
Deli loves his Skald. Deli loves Karna. These both are the same type of love. But, as he watches the sun rise over the horizon of the meatlands, he comes to both these realizations much too late.

Colin Provolone, who worked to eliminate the Sanctus Putris for twenty-five years and counting, looking at Belizabeth and adherents of the Ramsian Doctrine during A Crown of Candy and going, "My expertise is in a very specific sect. This one is outside my specialization. Not my circus, not my monkeys."

The age was old when Ymir (Twin) lived; from Ymir’s flesh the earth was formed, and from his sweat (i.e. blood) the sea, boulders from his bones, trees from his hair, and from his skull the sky.

the PROOOOOBLEM with colin or rather MY PROBLEM with colin is that i knew he was gonna be wildly popular along with deli from the first ep. i was like oh yeah people are gonna ship them and i’m gonna get sick of it so fucking fast. WHAT I DIDN’T account for were lou wilson and zac oyama, who are incredible players. zac with his little tasty one liners of “no secret is worth this” and “you know what i mean” WHILE COVERED IN QUEENS BLOOD and lou with his quick violence and no talking and killing that poor fungi guy.
