Bard
"Every room has a song in it. Most people just aren't listening hard enough."
A bard does not perform for an audience. They perform because the world is full of untranslated languages: the creak of a dungeon door, the silence after a monster stops moving, the exact register of a stranger's laugh when they are hiding something. Music is how a bard reads all of it.
They carry their instrument like other classes carry a weapon, because for them it functions like one. Percussion steadies a fight. Strings can repair what the fight broke. Wind can slip past a wandering monster without waking it. Brass puts fear into things that should be afraid. A bard without a song left in them is rare; a bard who will not sing for you is a different kind of warning.
What they gather is not coin or glory. It is information, atmosphere, leverage. Ask a bard what they know about a place and they will tell you about the sound of it, which will tell you everything.
