I'm trying to find a way to justify the Bard spell list including healing spells. I'm new to 3.5, and a vet of 2e, so the thought of a Bard casting cure light wounds terrifies me. I suppose what I'd like to know, in your opinion, why were healing spells added to the Bard spell list?

Additionally, is there a single-weapon feat in a book somewhere? I'm looking for a feat that gives an advantage to someone for using one single-hand weapon and no shield. Ideally I'd like to see what others have done before I try and make my own house rule.

Thanks

For one handed weapon stuff, try taking a look at the Duelist PrC and see if there's anything you like out of there.

The Dueling feat from Knights of the Old Republic (based off the d20 system) comes to mind. It's +1 to attack and +1 to defence if you weild one single handed weapon. You'd need to change it a little for D&D - maybe +1 to attack rolls, not damage, and a +1 bonus to AC.
