First off, just want you guys to know I'm really grateful for the responses. Sorry for the delay in response
I'm defintely leaning towards Bard, at least for the first six levels (character I'm making level 8 btw), but as far as what to do with those last two levels I'm undecided on if to go with first two levels of sorcerer or if to keep rolling like normal with Bard. The main thing that is going to decide it honestly is how the multi-classnig works (which I'm looking into now) and if the Staff of the Magi (which I have the option of getting... long story) would apply to Bard spells or even if I can use it as a multiclassed character.
You're very welcome!
For the staff; As long as it's similar to the dmg one you need to be a sorc/wiz/war to attune to it so you will need to multi. My suggestion for that would be Warlock, 2 levels nets you 2 1st level slots on a short rest which is awesome, invocations, a great damaging cantrip and access to things like hex. In short it lets you use your staff, and if you want have a cantrip that does 1d10+1d6+cha each blast and it'd be 2 blasts. There are also a lot of good invocations for non-combat stuff.
