I recently began to write up my 3rd level character to send into Iron Crown as asked to in the thread

When I realized for a level 3 guy, I'm using quite a few books and would be using more but my DM said a few of the things I wanted were not available where we are adventuring and stil my character looks like this:
Captain Farnir Redshirt, Privateer, Lord Executioner of Provoka, Hero of Coneria, Wolfslayer, Stout Spearman, Master of the Crystal Viper, and Artist of the Lost Tambourine Brd2/ Ftr1
CR 3; Small-sized Humanoid (Halfling); HD: 2d6+4 + 1d10 + 2 (18 hp); Init: +2; Spd 15 ft (encumbered); AC 17 (+2 Dex, +1 size, +4 masterwork Chain shirt); BAB +2; Grap -3; Attack: Dagger +2 (1d3-1, 19+/x2, melee) or Sling +6 (1d3, x2, ranged) or Tambourine of Death +6 (1d4, 19+/x2, ranged); Full Attack: Dagger +2 (1d3-1, 19+/x2, melee) or Sling +6 (1d3, x2, ranged) or Tambourine of Death +6 (1d4, 19+/x2, ranged); SQ: Halfling traits; SV Fort+5, Ref +6, Will +3; Str 8, Dex 15, Con 14, Int 12, Wis 8, Cha 15
Skills: Perform (Percussion) +8, Climb +1, Concentration +8, Decipher Script +7, Intimidate +3, Jump +1; Knowledge (arcane) +5, Knowledge (history) +5, Speak High Draconic* +4; Use Magic Device +6; Feats: Extra Music, Exotic Weapon Proficiency (Tambourine of Death), Ear to the Gorund
Languages: Halfling, Common, Draconic
Spell Per Day: 4/1 DC 12 + spell level
Bardic Abilities: Bardic Music (6/day): Inspire Courage, Countersong, and Facinate
Bardic Knowledge Checks +3
Spells Known: 0th – detect magic, light, lullaby, read magic, summon instrument; 1st – Summon Crystal Viper
Equipment: Backpack, Sling, 9 sling bullets, 8 silver sling bullets, Tambourine of Death, waterskin, masterwork chain shirt, dagger, 6 sling scones, briar pipe
Treasure: 27 gp, silver pearl, rose quartz
Magic Items: Ventrilliquator
The bard that is known as Farnir to his friends is an exuberant individual. Farnir must always be the center of attentive and has adopted the practice of adding titles to his name for each memorable encounter he has. When meeting new people he always talks first in his party and always refers to himself by his full title. In his youth he met a very young copper dragon who taught him some High Draconic (The true language of power that dragons use to spellcast) but this has taken a toll on this learning and he does not possess as many spells as he should for a bard of his level. He plays the Tambourine of Death which is both a music instrument and a weapon as the tiny cymbals are razor sharp. He has lost this tambourine once while fighting a crystal viper in the desert and had to resort to slapping his tummy to keep a rhythm. After nearly being killed by the crystal viper (a naturally invisible viper) he learned to put his ear to the ground and sense any creature within 30 ft. Farnir’s only magic item is a small cone that allows him to project his voice 30 ft, which he uses to mimic the sounds of dragons and intimidate opponents. Slingscones are a Halfling breakfast item and sling ammunition.

Do other people use this many resources or am I just crazy for a 3rd level character.
