Impresario
The Kingdom is crossed by ambulants, actors, puppeteers, itinerant singers, troubadours, bards, minstrels, acrobats, and all sorts of artists, not to mention those who always reside and perform in a specific city, in one particular theater, or their own ward. This confusing saraband of musicians, entertainers, and wanderers often leads to some Impresario, or crafty traffickers who know how to deal with commoners and gentlemen, full of connections and knowledge, and notably able to manage a theatrical work, a company of actors, or a single virtuoso. The impresario is the meeting point between artists, clients, and the masses: there is not always a need for them, and many are incompetent or scammers, but the most skilled of them have really made the fortune of their protégés.

Shows and Scams
Over the centuries and within the different Kingdom regions, the Impresarios have dedicated themselves to many diverse occupations, often ending up performing themselves when necessary or tricking a whole village and running away with the proceeds. An impresario chooses three types of shows to define the art forms in which they are more experienced.

• Street Theatre, mime actors and juggling
• Courtly, receptions and upper crust company
• Opera, concerts, ballets, and great stage performances
• Songs, madrigals, and street or chamber music
• Prestidigitation, curtain raising magic
• Marionette Theatre, puppets or shadow plays
• Circus and fighting matches
• Commedia dell’arte, dramas and monologues
• Sacred, religious performances
• Farce, pranks and scams

Feature: The Art of Making Do
You are used to facing unexpected events of all kinds, and you are always able to patch it up, somehow. For your three chosen art forms, you can improvise a series of components and put a valid representation or show together in no time.

Suggested Characteristics
From the worst circus barkers to the legendary Fox and Cat, the elves and turquoises’ impresarios, these smart showmen generally represent the meeting point between merchant and artist, between rogue and bard. Kingdom business people are known to be Occasia's most skilled fixers and greatest charlatans: broken promises, hidden conditions, terms and restrictions with ambiguous meanings, terrific, epochal scams… it is also true that, if they are motivated and well paid, some impresarios could find and take trained elephants and dragons, platoons of artists and stagecoaches full of courtesans, to court in no more than three days. They say a good impresario could save a sinking lord's estate with a single, successful reception.
