I was thinking a Halfling Bard. She's a scholar of sorts (She doesn't like the term sage because that implies she's old) who wants to travel the world and unravel mysteries both magical and mundane. She's mainly a spell caster though she is handy with a knife. While she isn't a blaster caster, she can still help out the party with buffs and such and shut down specific enemies with her spells. Mainly I hope to use her for knowledge checks, specifically arcane and history so she'll always be useful delving into ancient ruins and such. She is a bit on the squishy side however, and despite her intellect she's naive and not good at reading people or noticing details.
I'll admit she's better suited as the NPC the party escorts through a dungeon rather than a bonefide party member, since I don't really intend to bolster her combat ability. She'll join up with the Lore College to further expand her knowledge and hopefully be helpful to the party.
