As stated above, I'm starting a home brewed campaign in a couple of weeks, and I'd like to play a Skald. I've done a little research on this earlier today and would like to see if there are any additional ideas from people who may have made them. I saw a post from 4 years ago and am curious if things have changed. I have a lot of experience in 1E and made a Skald but never got to play them. I played 2e a single time (maybe twice) a few years ago.

It looks like 2e doesn't have a Skald class (or if it has been added I missed it) so I'm thinking of 3 options for the build:

1. Bard with Warrior Muse and Viking/Marshall archetype

2. Barbarian with Bard Dedication and Shared Rage

3)Bardbarian multiclass of both, but I'm not sure the mix yet

I'd love to know what others think/have played. I'm interested in builds of class, race, background, ability point array, etc. I'm also interested in spell selection, feats, and any other thematically relevant information.

I have an ocular motor disorder and read super slowly. I'd like to be able to read through some stuff selectively and not be so overwhelmed by the sheer amount of books and supplements. Are there a few supplements that would be good thematically?

I have sent a message to ask the GM about character creation rules and will update here with that info upon receiving it.

TL:DR I want to play a Skald and read slowly. Would like some areas to focus upon as I am overwhelmed with how much material is available. I read a post here from 4 years ago and not sure if new info has come out

I'm really interested in playing Palworld again with the recent update. I'm generally available from about 9am-4:30pm. Tuesday-Friday. I've been playing it solo and I really miss having a friend to game with during the day for a bit. Doesn't need to be every day but a couple of times a week would be nice. I'm also available on some weekends. I play lots of other Survival Crafting games also but am really into wanting to start a world with someone on a regular basis.

I started a solo run and made a few dumb mistakes on the first mission. Several of which got me almost killed. But as the title hints I didn't get lucky enough to survive all the mishaps. I died doing the first or second (I believe second) mission. The one that opens the cave to a specific swamp area. I'm around most of today and this weekend can plan for a rescue time slot if needed. Will give more info if able to help but don't want to post all the spoilers here.

Hope you're all having an awesome day
