Im currently in the middle of making a character focused on the power of the voice. RP mechanics of everything he says has power, so he stays quiet until power is needed.
What i've come up with so far for this is fairly comprehensive, but id have to think that my spell list could be bigger. Anyway, heres what ive worked out.
Bard/Sublime Chord/Dracolexi - Bardic music(oratory) plus power word spell focus is perfect. Added points for the draconic word flavor/use and every social skill under the sun at my disposal.
Words of Creation - Yay more words, the fact that it works with my inspire courage is just gravy to be frank.
Spells, Every power word option, Halt (PHB2), Stand (PHB2) Beckoning Call (Fiendish Codex 1), Herald's Call(MoF) Any core spell of the suggestion/geas/command lines.
All of these fit the build/RP theme perfectly(although some are a little lackluster in use (stand)), the feel, and flavor text on the spell even specify them as clarion, single phrased commands holding power.
on the other end spells like Glossolalia (XPH), Dirge of Discord (CA), Wounding Whispers (MoF), All fit the bill in terms of effect and use, but I truly dont see the character as a blathering idiot, or screaming cries of agony.
In the end what im hopin for help on is expanding on my list of spells/feats/classes, comment on the build, any help or even how you like the character concept. Im not going for serious optimizing here, its more for fun. Also any spell suggestions that i cant inherently get through dracolexi, sublime, bard, or lyric thaumaturge, the only other option i know of is arcane disciple. So feel free to elaborate and thanks for the time
Sources available: any 3.5 i can get my hands on, excluding dragon magazines
