I have a preliminary build for a bard. She is a serpent blooded human who rolled extremely well. Stats as follows:

S12 D18 C13 I14 W12 Ch18

Preliminary build:

1. Bard - Spellbreaker Song Feature, Serpent Blooded, Dodge, Bardic Music
2. Bard
3. Bard - Spell Focus (Enchantment), Inspire Competence
4. Bard - Cha +1
5. Bard
6. Bard - Suggestion, Lingering Song
7. Bard
8. Heartwarder - Cha +2
9. Heartwarder - Heart of Passion, Words of Creation
10. Heartwarder - Cha +1
11. Sublime Chord - Bard Music and Knowledge Progression
12. Heartwarder - Lips of Rapture, Cha +1, Versatile Spellcaster
13. Heartwarder - Cha +1
14. Heartwarder - Voice of a Siren
15. Heartwarder - Melodic Casting, Cha +1
16. Heartwarder - Tears of Evergold, Cha +1
17. Heartwarder - Cha +1
18. Heartwarder - Fey Metamorphosis
19. Sublime Chord
20. Sublime Chord - Cha +1

Character reaches level 20 with a base Cha of 28 and the following spells per day:

Spell Level: 0/1/2/3/4/5/6/7/8/9
Spells Known: 6/4/4/4/6/4/4/4/3/2
Spells per day: 3/6/5/4/7/6/5/4/4/3

Some specific questions:

1. Is there an errata dealing with the Sublime Chord and spellcasting progression?

2. Is there an errata dealing with Heartwarder and spellcasting?

3. The 18th level feat is open. Any suggestions?

4. Any suggestions or comments about the build overall?
