I recently acquired an interest in min/maxed necromancy as a theoretical exercise (or at least as a threat to wield against my players :smalltongue:), and an idea came to me. However, I'm not sure if it would actually work, so I turn to the Playground's collective wisdom for this, as my google-fu has failed me. Here's the scoop:
The "Animate Dread Warrior" spell from Unapproachable East creates an undead servant that retains many of its class features and feats. Bards who take the Requiem feat (LM 29) can affect undead with their bardic music. If a necromancer killed a bard who tricked out his inspire courage/DFI and who also took the Requiem feat, and then that necromancer animated the dead bard as a dread warrior, would the new undead still be able to use his bardic abilities?
If it works, I envision a shambling undead horde wielding every bardic buff imaginable as a squad of dread warrior bards blasts its alp horns of doom. Hilarity would not ensure for the living.
