This is another of the 'adventure packs', a set of figures designed to represent a human male Bard player character mounted on horseback and on foot. In 1st Edition AD&D, a bard was a powerful character who had to attain at least 5 levels as both a fighter and a thief before starting as a 1st level bard. For some reason, Citadel produced 2 versions of this figure, one singing and the other with his mouth closed!
Pose 1, variant A. The foot version of this figure wears a chainmail vest over his fancy puff-sleeved shirt. He sports an extravagant feathered hat, and wears a slim-bladed sword at his belt. He is depicted strumming on his lute and singing.
Pose 1, variant B. This is the closed mouth version.
Pose 2, variant A. The mounted bard is identically armed and dressed. He carries his lute slung at his back, and has his sword drawn and raised above his head. The horse is a fine beast, wearing an ornate caparison and harness.
Pose 2, variant B. This is the closed mouth version of the mounted figure.
