Miscellaneous
Music has been used to influence moods from the time someone figured out how to bang to rocks together rhymically. It inspires warriors to push on in battle, and lulls babes to sleep. It enthralls you with its melody, and weaves itself into your memories. Bards offer excellent role play opportunities and provide a wide range of skills from battle bards to healers. A true support character, a well constructed bard can give your party the edge it needs to succeed. The bard is a charisma class, so you should make sure that is your highest ability. Dex is a good recommended second, but that really depends on what type of a bard you want to make.
