Virtue of Valor Builds


The Tenacious Troubadour by Parshias337 - A bard that can lead from the front. He is full of HP and healing, and can go toe-to-toe with most of the baddies.

The Foolmaker, a ranged Dwarven Valorous Bard by Alphastream1

The Triple Threat by Ranthanas2

The Dashing Swordsman by Thorvald_Grimbjorn - A sweet DEX based build mixing in a dash of Rogue to make a nice striker leader combo. It forces the bad guys to make a difficult choice - get hurt bad or get hurt worse.

If I could, I would make you a raging river, with angry rapids, supplied with rain, so you could always meander and forever be able to run away without contending with myths wrongly interpreted with pain. A harsh wind.

Macbeth:
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

(Vigil Sonnet)

I was perched, patiently in the hawthorn,
Concealed, with my head darting east to west,
With the rest of us singing, so careworn,
To the moon, full and beautiful; possessed
By the graces of the pale light shining
Down here from unimaginable heights;
Silver-voiced in song, mine aimed in pining,
Awaiting images of goodly sights.
Of fields full of thick, long grass, sheathed in dew,
For the quiet, wet early morning air;
The soft, enormous sky, bathed all in blue
Those swarms of insects stirring, far out there

And long shadows receded, found here furled,
And I looked out there, at the whole, wide world.

And, because it would be just wrong not to include it, THE song that represents the group of Genre Savvy musicians.

The Bard's Song, Blind Guardian:

Now You all know
The bards and their songs
When hours have gone by
I'll close my eyes
In a world far away
We may meet again
But now hear my song
About the dawn of the night
Let's sing the bards' song

[Ref.:]
Tomorrow will take us away
Far from home
No one will ever know our names
But the bards' songs will remain
Tomorrow will take it away
The fear of today
It will be gone
Due to our magic songs

There's only one song
Left in my mind
Tales of a brave man
Who lived far from here
Now the bard songs are over
And it's time to leave
No one should ask You for the name Of the one
Who tells the story

[Ref.:]
Tomorrow will take us away
Far from home
No one will ever know our names
But the bards' songs will remain
Tomorrow all will be known
And You're not alone
So don't be afraid
In the dark and cold
'Cause the bards' songs will remain
They all will remain

In my thoughts and in my dreams
They're always in my mind
These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men
And elves
Come close Your eyes
You can see them, too.

PS: On topic, can't wait to see the analysis of bardic powers. I've been thinking about them too.
Mountain Cleave Rule: You can have any sort of fun, including broken, silly fun, so long as I get to have that fun too (e. g., if you can warp reality with your spells, I can cleave mountains with my blade).
