Dominic is a man of sharp features and immaculate presentation. He stands with a stiff, upright posture. His blonde hair is perfectly coiffed, and his traveling clothes are frequently brushed for dust. He has a habit of adjusting his cuffs and checking his instrument for scratches.

Dominic believes that a performance is a contract between the artist and the audience. He is incredibly disciplined, viewing music not as a flight of fancy but as a structured science. He treats rules and laws with the same respect he gives to a musical score, believing that chaos is simply a melody that has not yet been refined.

Born to a family of strict court administrators, Dominic was expected to follow a path of ledger keeping and legal scholarship. However, he discovered that the vibrations of a lute string followed more perfect laws than the messy affairs of human politics. He left his home not to escape order, but to find a more beautiful form of it in the arts. He now travels as a professional musician, seeking to bring harmony and structure to the wilder parts of the world. He has spent years perfecting his technique, often practicing for six hours a day regardless of his surroundings. His training as an entertainer allows him to blend in at any gathering, but his heart remains that of a perfectionist who values a well-argued contract as much as a perfectly resolved chord. He joined the adventuring life because he noticed that the world's many injustices were often the result of poorly tuned social structures that needed a firm hand to correct.
