[QUOTE="jdavis, post: 682594, member: 8704"] Here I'll quote out of the Bard discription: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Bards are wanderers, guided by whim and intuition rather than tradition or law" This character would have very little intuition not to mention he could never find another town if he left the one he was in, he would have a hard time reading or understanding even a simple map and would be unable to cope with the world alone. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Bards see adventures as opportunities to learn" Well he lacks the ability to learn anything more complicated than "Fire Bad" "They practice their many skills and abilities " Can't do that either..... "and they especially relish the opportunity to enter a long-forgotten ancient tomb " Would have problems with long forgotten ancient tombs as he would not understand things being ancient, not to mention he would probably forget the long forgotten tomb shortly after they left it. "to discover ancient works of magic " see "fire bad" above "to decipher old tomes" yea right, he can't decipher picture books. "to travel to strange places" He has a hard enough time coping with familiar places. "to encounter exotic creatures" I like my dog I'll name him George, and I'll hug him and pet him. "and to learn new songs and stories." Oh come on............. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "He often serves as the spokesman of the party, using his social skills for the party's benifit" I like eating, do you like eating? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Charisma, Dexterity and Inteligence are important for many of the Bard's class skills" Well two out of three isn't bad, I hope he spends his one skill point a level well. He will only get 4 skill points as a starting character (4 + inteligence modifier{-3} x4 = 4). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Bardic Knowledge" Well we will just throw that special ability out the window. He will be at a negative to do something he is supposed to be really good at till 3rd level. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [/QUOTE]
