[QUOTE="ExtremeSIMS, post: 6259, member: 1074"] [b]Thanks for the feedback![/b] Funny you both would mention that the class seems underpowered. I was trying hard not to make it overpowered! I created it specifically for one of my characters in a friend's campaign, but will allow it in my own campaign. Good idea on the performance benefit. A +2 bonus is not too powerful, and it does jive with the +2 bonus a bard gets to join a guild when telling a story in which the audience has specific interest. I was thinking of a +2 bonus to a Knowledge skill, to reflect the bard's current focus, in Arcana, History, Nature, or Religion. Since the type of bard I am striving for would be interested in everything, maybe the addition of another skill bonus at a higher PrC level? As in my original post, I think some people want to play the Bard as the type that creates the basis for his own tales. That's the goal of the class, and your input is welcomed! [/QUOTE]
