Trivia[]

Bard, the Wandering Caretaker Bard, the Wandering Caretaker
  • Bard is the second champion to have both a voiceover with no actual spoken words as well as a music-themed one, the first for each being Rek'Sai Rek'Sai and Sona Sona, respectively.
  • Bard's voiceover is based on a system that plays certain lines depending on the number of Meeps Meeps currently traveling with him, with specific lines for 0/1/2/3/4.[1]
    • His early voiceover prototypes used Bassoon, Contrabassoon, and Bass clarinet. The final version has 4 parts.
      1. Alpenhorn
      2. Egyptian flutes
      3. Verbed out Piano tone clusters and strings
      4. A Synthesizer called Zebra and programmed to cycle through the harmonic and/or overtone series.
      • This mixture is meant to give Bard a sense of other-worldliness.[2][3]
        • Other instruments recorded were:
          1. Tibetan Singing bowls (various shapes and sizes)
          2. Tibetan chimes (various shapes and sizes)
          3. Tibetan Gong
          4. Tibetan Cymbal
          5. Trombone (performed)
          6. Trombone mouth piece
          7. Trombone mouth piece buzzed through a garden hose
          8. Bowed Cymbals
          9. Various ethnic flutes and reed instruments
  • Although Bard himself does not have a voice actor, his Meeps Meeps do.
    • Reflecting this, when a Meep Meep spawns, they will occasionally whisper "Utora", who is one of Bard's audio designer, Riot Utora.[4]
