The Early Years
According to his ghost written biography, 'The Spice of Life', Bazil grew up in abject poverty, scraping by on the streets of Ul'dah.
It was later revealed that he actually was the black sheep of a prestigious merchant family, yet still grew up wanting for nothing.
He took to playing the harp not as an act of rebellion, but simply because he was bad at math, couldn't be trusted to continue the family business, and thus had no other job prospects.
Music Career
Bazil's traveling band, known as Bazil and the Magnificent Bastards, toured Eorzea for twenty years leading up to the Calamity. Their music consisted of the sort of things popular in taverns—upbeat songs that were typically about drinking, loving, or dying.
Even had their touring ship, the Shrieking Harpy (named for Bazil's second wife) not sank during the disaster, surviving members of the Magnificent Bastards confessed they all planned to go their separate ways once the ship reached port.
