Lamentations Of The Flame Princess: The Music Of Ericha Zann

'It would be useless to describe the playing of Erich Zann on that dreadful night. It was more horrible than anything I had ever overheard, because I could now see the expression of his face, and could realise that this time the motive was stark fear. He was trying to make a noise; to ward something off or drown something out - what, I could not imagine, awesome though I felt it must be. The playing grew fantastic, delirious, and hysterical, yet kept to the last the qualities of supreme genius which I knew this strange old man possessed.' - H.P. Lovecraft

The Music of Ericha Zann presents an alternate version of the Bard class for traditional tabletop role-playing games, including Lamentations of the Flame Princess. It presents the Bard as a figure of chaos in the vein of 'The Music of Erich Zann' and rejects the concept of the Bard as a charismatic minstrel.
