Efekjek 03-09-07, 12:15 PM	I'll be starting up a bard for greyhawk ruins, and I would like some different perspectives. I would like to a play a bard that's knowledgeable, and sort of casterish, too. I'm currently looking at: gnome 8 str 8 dex 16 con 16 int 8 wis 16 cha 1 bard trivial knowledge 2 bard 3 bard melodic casting 4 bard 5 bard 6 bard lyric spell (?) 7 lyric thaumaturge 8 lyric thaumaturge 9 lyric thaumaturge (featses?) 10 lyric thaumaturge 11-15 sublime chord Obviously, I don't know what feats to take. Any thoughts, guys? I'm also toying with the idea of dropping a level of bard for marshall because I want to use diplomacy as well. Would that be worth it? I don't care if my BAB is in the toilet.

I would strongly recommend figuring out what your plans are in combat before Sublime Chord is available to you. This might also help to guide your choices of feats somewhat.
