Extra Music, Lingering Song, Requiem, Disguise Spell and Subsonics are all pretty decent feats that extend the bard's abilities.However, I'd also recommend something on a roleplaying level. Most bard players tend to struggle with the whole Perform skill and it's execution in the game. For that, I would recommend you simply look to the campaign setting. It's obvious, I know, but most players don't seem to get it. Take, for instance, the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer. Simply flip to a random page and start reading a random paragraph. If you like what you see or are interested in any way, find the start and read from there, otherwise flip to another page. As you're reading through whatever it is, actually think about the STORIES within the paragraphs. Extract from them and use them in game.For instance, flip to page 139 of the Gazetteer. Read 'Burneal Forest'.Burneal Forest: The Burneal Forest stretches for hundreds of miles, from the shore of the Dramidj Ocean to the bogs of Blackmoor. This sprawling realm of pines and firs harbors great northern elk, giant deer and other game, tempting Wolf and Tiger Nomads to hunt there. Little-known Flan savages called the Uirtag dwell in the interior, living in huts made of green boughs in the brief summer and in burrows dug into the ground during the long, cold winter. A few Chakji tribes on the forests' western fringe trade with Tiger Nomads and inhabitants of the Land of Black Ice (see Tiger Nomads).From that, you can then, sometime later, say something along the lines of, "Ahh yes, much like the Flan of the Burneal, we shall create arbors out of the living trees..." or whatever.Adds loads of spice to a game and makes your character more than just, "Umm... so, what did I get on my Bardic Knowledge roll?"Just a thought.</blockquote>
