I was led to believe you set them up like you would a thief, exept that he will need a high Charisma, where the Thief does not.
That is just my opinion, though ------------------  Larry, a Loyal Guardian of the OHF |

Ive never played a bard, and i dont have the game manuals here, but i suppose intelligence will be important for the spells.

I suggest you pump up his dexterity, due to the fact he is limited in armour, strength is not really important, but constitution is, as Bards dont get massive HP levels, Charisma and intelligence are both important: but forget about wisdom. As for weapon proficiencies I strongly suggest missile weapons, the best weapon in the game as far as im concerned is a crossbow, believe it's a +5 Thaco bonus, combine that with the bracers of archery and your gonna be tough, other than that I suggest large swords, as their are plent to choose from.
Hope this helps ------------------  Time is only relevant if you have none ! |

That crossbow is nice, but Long bow of Marksmanship fires twice as fast and your bard will be able to use. I hily recomend it. Also, you get the bow at the end of chapter 3, the crossbow is unavailable until chapter 5.
