So I'm suggesting you don't take it.Insight is more "I sense you're not telling me the whole story", whereas Investigation is more "I poke around and discover that there is a special thing that does X". So they're two different things, insight more for interpersonal hunches and investigate for practical poking around with.iMO you can't be a Bard without Performance. Your whole schtick is that you manipulate the Weave of Magic through channeling musical notes or spoken words (hell, even dance if you want a really hard roleplaying job), so being able to play an instrument or sing or chant or rap or freestyle poetry is basically how you do your magic thing - so I'd have it but as mentioned before you don't need an instrument beyond your voice.Also, your character doesn't need to be a guy that fixes things or fits a practical hole. He can be a weakling, spoiled, naive, upper class noble who doesn't really understand that things don't just magically appear or get fixed (although, with Prestidigitation, they kind of can). Let him be a bit demanding and a bit reluctant to get his ever so pale and delicate hands dirty - it'll suit the character.As for healing spells, your paladin doesn't sound very paladin-y if he only heals himself - sounds a bit selfish if you ask me. So you could choose healing spells and undercut your otherwise quite selfish/spoiled background with a helpful quality like healing. But you'll also want some offensive magics as your Str is mega low.</blockquote>
