Hello playground dwellers! First off, i do not play DnD, never did. I'd like to try some day, but for now it isnt really possible for me.

Anyways, i still know certain things about the game. Some things i learned on my own, ( wikipedia + boredom is great for general culture, i suppose. ) and other things i learned on this very site.

Now, with that said, i can expose my idea.

Ever saw the great movie "Kung Fu Hustle"? Its an hilarious parody of martial arts movies. Recommand it to everyone looking for a good laugh.

Now, what characters gave me this idea are the Harpists (http://http://youtube.com/watch?v=Oq84WO_zubQ).

Imagine playing one of those guys! Long range dammage, protection, otherwise badass moves ( fire a small army of undead warriors with an oriental string instrument thingie, anyone? ) as well as more standard bardic skills? If i ever play DnD, i'll need to try and remember the Harpists.

Since, as i said, i dont play Dungeons and Dragons, i cant think of stats and more technical bits, so i'll let you guys flesh 'em out, if you want to.

Nifty Idea. You should go to the Homebrew forum, though, and toss it out there.

This isn't bnet chat.

This is a pet peeve of mine, and I'm sure irritates many other people and causes them to not take your post(s) seriously and/or be irritated at you.

Woops, I'll edit my Homebrew forum post. English isn't my first language so I get these little mistakes sometimes.

Glad I could be of help in your education of my language.

Another thing that is annoying to forumers is a double-post. This board allows you to delete a double-post as part of an edit function. I suggest you do so.
