While you sit on the stool, several voices that sound as sweet as honey behind you catch your attention. You turn around and see several beautiful women, singing their hearts out. The power of these fantasy singers mesmerize you.
Singers are popular in the genre and for good reason. They appear in many different areas of the world, usually bars and taverns, where they use their voices to enthrall the audience and the vast majority are breathtaking to look at. They sing a wide medley of songs, all unique to the world they dwell in.
Who can be fantasy singers? In order to be one, a prospective candidate must possess several qualities. One of which is to have a fantastic voice. What’s the point of being a singer if your voice sounds like fingernails on a blackboard?
There is great power in the voice of singers. They can reach people in their soul and move them in unexpected ways. Some even break down in tears, hearing the majesty of the rhapsodic voices. One reason why people flock to these places is to hear these amazing voices which lets them forget their problems just for a few moments.
Singers serve the world by using the mellifluous power of their voices to captivate those listening to them. They help lift the ambience of the venues they’re in and their voices speak differently to each one of their listeners. They act as a place of refuge for them from a world filled with trouble.

With so many singers found across the world, you might be wondering what does it take to become one? Discerning eyes use the power of observation to see that they all have several things in common, whether they’re just a local one or an acclaimed one who commands the attention of thousands of people.
No matter their level, one thing you’ll soon notice is how fantastic their voices sound. This is kind of important since having a great voice is a requisite to pursue this career. Not everyone has a voice capable of belting the tunes; those that don’t and are considering this occupation ought to look elsewhere for a job.
Sometimes having a mellifluous voice isn’t enough. Looks play a role too. When people enter a bar or tavern at the end of a long day, they expect to see attractive people standing on the stage, singing song after song. They can enjoy watching them as they listen to them. This helps brighten their day.
Another thing you’ll notice is that the majority of fantasy singers are women. The voices of the fairer sex are pleasing to listen to and they’re more attuned to their emotions, meaning it’s easier for them to tap into them to create a performance that’s hard to forget! While it’s true that there are male singers, in many imaginary worlds, women dominate this field.
All singers are extroverts. They have no choice but to socialize with different people, especially when they’re performing. They constantly check the crowd to assess how their performance is going and modify it if they feel like it’s not getting the reaction they hoped.
They also talk with people before and after they sing and while they travel from one place to another.
Patrons congregate to places like taverns because they enjoy the convivial atmosphere. There’s one thing better than drinking ale and eating food to unwind after a long day and that’s listening to a beautiful woman they can’t take their eyes off on singing. A singer whose voice that is so easy to listen to that it practically washes all their troubles away.
The best fantasy singers use the power of their voices to transport their listeners to a world far away from the one they know. They make them forget all their cares away, just for a few moments. Everyone can use a break every now and then.
Another way singers use their voice is to reach people in their soul. This is especially useful when someone is struggling on making a consequential decision such as getting married or moving to another place. The enchanting voice of the singer reaches his soul and help him make the decision he’s been wrestling with for a while.
Fantasy singers form a connection with their audience. As the words flow out of their mouths towards their listeners, the singers smile and wave. When they look out to the crowd, they see some people whose eyes are filled with tears, others whose attention is so fixated on them that they don’t notice the ale dripping down their shirt.
Sometimes people just want to listen to an amazing singer so they go to a place where they know they’ll find plenty. They enjoy listening to them and can’t believe how fantastic they sound. They talk about them with their family and friends and tell them to go check them out.
Where do singers fit in the world? The obvious answer would be that they’re there to serve as a form of entertainment, both for the venues and for their customers. However, just as with any other occupation, the singing profession is full of interesting and dynamic characters.
When they take the stage, fantasy singers croon their hearts out in front of a group of people. They dazzle the crowd with their skillful mastery of their voice as they go through song after song. And they do it all with a smile as their eyes look to the audience where they see everyone whose attention is fixated upon them.
Singers work hard, rehearing for hours on a time to ensure that they know the songs in and out without looking at a sheet and matching the pitch to the beat. They give ample time for their voices to rest, especially before a big show, so that they’re in prime condition when it comes time to work. They do all this because they know the audience expects nothing less than the best from them.
Though their primary role is to entertain others, singers too are people with their goals and dreams. The vast majority of fantasy singers have the desire to show off their voices to people across the world and they do so with great aplomb, even if they’re having a bad day.
Much like the audience, all their cares and troubles in the world melt away like butter when they perform. They are people who have families and friends, their own lives. They’re just singing to make money for themselves and their families and at times, they put their job ahead of them which can, and will, make them occasionally resent it. The resentment is noteworthy when they miss important family events like their children’s birthdays.
There’s nothing better than going to a tavern at sunset and enjoying the evening listening to a beautiful woman singing her heart out. You sit in a trance, listening as her voice constantly shift up and down in pitch and you can’t believe how incredible she sounds. The power of her voice enchants you and before you know it, hours will have gone by!
Women are far more likely to be fantasy singers than men. It’s because they can easily tap into their emotions to create riveting performances that linger long afterwards. They also like to interact with the audience, whether it’s taking special requests or engaging in witty banter in-between acts.
The voices of singers have the power to influence people in different ways. Some are so moved that they break down, others recall happier and carefree days, others have bittersweet memories.
In regard to their role in the world, singers’ main purpose is to entertain the crowd. They do so simply because they have a passion for singing and they want to share it with the world. Though they may be singers, they too are people who have their own dreams and desires. They also have families they help take care of.
Should you include fantasy singers in the world you’re building from scratch? After all, every occupation brings something to the table that the others don’t. Singers are one of the oldest forms of entertainment; they’ve been using what they’ve been blessed with to bring some respite in people’s lives.
