I would advise bringing along the ToB NPC for maximum evilness. Replace the multiplayer barb with him. Furthermore, I will do what I always do: recommend a blade over a skald. While the skald may be more useful at first, the blade has two major advantages:
1) His song disadvantage is eliminated by ToB HLAs.
2) He levels up really fast, so has high caster level, and thus has really long lasting combat buffs. Combine that with the ability to throw out skull traps, fireballs, etc, well you get the idea. Also can get proficiencies in all weapons and use everything.
Also, I could be wrong, but I was under the impression the skald's bonuses were not correctly implemented, but they were fixed with the Song & Silence mod.
