Interesting.

The concept is fairly interesting in nature; a beetle bard. Could make for some good character development as he begins to learn how to play multiple instruments at once with his four arms (and his feet too if he becomes that good).

Couple of issues though. First, a bard that doesn't speak much is... well, a musician. A bard is a performer in more than just music--stories, jokes, practical performances, and all other things charismatic to intice their audience to watch and listen to them. Aeri sounds more like the drummer who shies away at the back of the stage as opposed to the energetic, epicly enthusiastic bard who takes center stage.

I know the poem-inspired history sounds like a good idea and most definitely fits the bardic feel of the character, but... it's probably not a good thing for a wiki, which is supposed to be written in an informative style as opposed to creative writing like a poem or novel and such.

And that's about it, I guess.
