Julia is a wandering half elf bard, playing her music just for fun. Her parents were wealthy mechants. One an elf, the other human, that hailed from the southern territories. Her mother had a distaste for minstrals, deeming them poor and dirty folk that begged for gold. Her father rather enjoyed music, going as far as to get her a small trianglular lute, a Balalaika. Finding the frivalous spending habits of her family a waste of good money, she took off to use her share of the family fortune to study music and the arts. Before she left, her brothers each gave her a stringed instrument. She ended up with a Mandolin, a Ukulele, and an Angelique.
After a few years of study, Julia had mastered all manner of chordophones, and some limitited use of certain windpipes. One day she heard a boiterous and commanding sound in a feild while traveling. When she found out what it was, the Bagpipes, she had strived hard to learn the instrument that made such a violent noise.
Soon after she ended up in a Tavern, playing for the well tipping patrons in the area. One fateful night, the tavern burned to ground after a large brawl involving a rogue wizard. Since then, she has been traveling with the wizard in the hopes of regaining some lost wages and for something to do. Her favorite instrument to play, despite having 4 different kinds of lutes and panpipes, are the bagpipes. (Her culture would be closest to Scottish heritage.) She wears tartans, has sandy blonde hair, and enjoys smoking.
