[QUOTE="Tobold Hornblower, post: 183417, member: 395"] Bards don't get enough skill points, and my Charisma is only 11. I'm taking one level of Bard at eigth level. Since I'm maxing out perform for my storytelling abilities, one level of Bard could be very useful. And when I pick up several ranks in Speak Language as a class skill, the Bard's lack of skills won't be so bad for that one level. IMC, I wouldn't allow the languages given to first level characters, for high intelligence or race, to be shared with the Raven. It doesn't seem to be covered by the rule text for shared 'skills', and I try to follow the rules to the letter, rather than change them to make more sense. My DM may decide differently though. I'm taking the Wiz/Raven next level (5th) and several new languages as a Bard at 8th, anyway, even if my Raven can only speak one language. Checking the Player's Handbook last night, there didn't appear to be a range limit on the shared skills, unlike empathic link (one mile), Altertness (arm's length), and shared spells (5 ft.)
