Assurancetourix / Cacofonix

According to Wikipedia, Cacofonix is the bard in Asterix village. He loves singing and playing his lyre, and jumps at every opportunity to do so. While he can accompany traditional dances, and conducts a village band, his singing is unbearable. In recent albums his music is so spectacularly horrible that it actually starts thunderstorms even indoors !
Some villagers go to extreme lengths to avoid hearing Cacofonix's music. Most notably, Fulliautomatix, the village smith, bangs him on the head at the merest hint of breaking into a song, and has destroyed his lyre on a number of occasions, at one point being called the "ancestor of music critics". As a running gag, Cacofonix is generally tied up and gagged during the banquet at the end of most albums to allow the other villagers to have a good time without having to keep him from singing.
