I'm playing in an epic-level one-shot and I have to roll up a character. I want to play a bard with a didgeridoo that might be used as a club. However, I don't know anything about building an effective bard, OR an effective 20th level character.
I have a character sheet and no idea how to start. Help? I can draw you an avatar for your troubles.

There's a guide here. (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/extras/community-creations/treatmonks-lab/test2)

You really have to figure out what role (or roles) you want to fill. Spell casting? Purely buffing? Archery? Melee?

Once you have that in mind, build your character at first level. From there, you might find it easier to map out each level, or to just fill out all your feats, and then your gear, and then your spells, etc. etc.

Pathfinder doesn't really have epic (yet) so one question you'll have to ask is how the class will advance post-20.

As far as a powerful bard though, I would suggest a Sound Striker Magician.
