Alliteration aside.
I want to make a bard which focuses on non violent combat and non combative situations.

I would love some suggestions, we will start at level 20. 25 pt buy. no dragon magazine or online supplements. Any 3.5 book is allowed.

One idea I considered was:
Human Bard 3/Paladin of freedom 2/evangelist 5/Warchanter 10. I can use Inspire dread to give enemies -4 to their will saves and follow up with inspire awe/inspire legion. Atonement at will is useful when I'm using vows. I love charisma-->saves. Sacred vow and Vow of poverty at level 1. working up to vow of non-violence and maybe vow of peace(not being able to weaken enemies seems like it would be a huge hindrance).

What other good builds would let a bard be useful in a battle w/o causing damage? I would like it if my cohort didn't kill anyone either.

On an unrelated note: does the Thayan knight need to meet the prerequisites for the level 3 bonus feat?

This is my first post (Yay ^^) and I really hope this is understandable and follows forum guidelines.
