Sweetsinger

Sweetsinger and Nightsinger originally was a term usual in the Dúnadan Kingdoms of Arnor and Gondor to designate a female Minstrel who is a learned entertainer and companion, however the term soon fell into disgrace and became a synonym for a mistress, courtisan and later an ordinary prostitute.Since prostitution was not allowed or at last not socially acceptable under the Dúnadan rule, sweetsingers often formally work as seamstresses or in bathhouses.

Sweetsingers usually recruit from the lowest and poorest classes of society and are usually common men, not of Dúnadan heritage.
