As you could tell from the thread title, I'm looking to re-create the Pied Piper of Hamelin in DnD. Specifically, a 'Face' bard who can fascinate everything under the sun, and then Suggest them into following him around.
Possibly, using Perform (Dance), then Suggest them into joining him with a "Come! Dance with me!" since, surely if there's one guy capering around the battlefield, it must be 'reasonable' enough to qualify, right?
I can finally have my dream of winning DnD through musical numbers and the power of Riverdance.
Is this possible? He would need at least Requiem (undead: Thriller, anyone?), Green Ear (plants), Soothe the Beasts (animals/magical beasts), and Speak to the Masses (x2 as many Fascinated targets). He'd also need to pump up his perform check to keep people from resisting his siren song with a will save.
I've never actually played a bard before, so I could use all the help I could get on this one.
EDIT: Maybe get in some Undersong, Warblade (plus Chaos music) and Diamond Mind maneuvers to beat people to death with my dance, a la Nexus's Lord of the Dance (http://forums.gleemax.com/showthread.php?t=979511)
