[QUOTE="Pixie Barbarian, post: 1252013, member: 5562"] Hey all, I'm trying to construct a half-orc skald character of 5th level with the following rolled abilities (before any racial modifiers): 17, 17, 15, 14, 13, 8. My initial thought was to distribute the abilities as follows (with racial modifiers): Str 17, Dex 14, Con 18 (including 4th level ability point), Int 11, Wis 8, Cha 15 I would take level 1 as bard for the skills and alternate between barbarian and bard every level after. I would add his 8th and 12th level ability points to Cha and Str respectively. I would like some input on which skills besides Perform I should take, which feats, which prestige class (even homebrew if its balanced) would you recommend, and any other advice or changes you can think of. I see the character as a warrior-poet from a Nordic kingdom that will recite epic battle poems (half the fun of playing a bard :D ) to inspire his allies and pick up his sword and shield and enter the fray. Thanks in advance for your help. [/QUOTE]
