Our drummers keep dying in rage-related accidents. One of our long-term band story-arcs is to find one who can survive an actual show.
Or they could just fire Rekkstuff VanHalen, but come on, he deals d8+7 with a guitar. Without Power Attack. Do you wanna be the one to tell him he can't play anymore?

Sad to lose Roach, but that was the best character write-out ever.

Indeed. Damn keyboards are after our drummers jobs!
That was an excellent writeout. Sigh, really wish I could have stayed in. But I will have to be satisfied with lurking from bewyond the grave.
I'd just like to point out that the party is going to look for a new drummer by investigating the sound of a fight in an alley. We have the best ideas. :D
Oh, Mr GM, sir. When Rekkstuff VanHalen gets his second barbarian level (currently planned for at 7th), I was planning in going into the Invulnerable Rager archetype. It doesn't overwrite anything that Urban does, but I didn't mention it before. Is this still okay?
Well, the thug probably didn't need intimidation to want to get away from us, seeing as how Rekkstuff dropped his friend in less than 6 seconds and is still probably really pissed. I could see this guy rolling on the floor, laughing but with tears of terror streaming out of his eyes.
Anyone with Mending, we have a need for that right about now.
-Take Power Attack at 5th
-...No clue what my feat would be at 7th. Possibly Extra Rage?
-Get access to Greater Magic Weapon as high a caster level as possible... somehow. Possibly UMD or a Staff.
-Until then, get standard Magic Weapon on a wand for those pesky DR/magic types.
-Weapon Focus (Improvised) as Archaeologist 4 rogue talent.
-Dazzling Display at 9th. (BAB should be +7, Barb3/Arch6)
-Shatter defenses as combat feat for Archaeologist 8 rogue talent.
-Improvised Weapon Mastery at 11th (Look at your man. Now back to me. The guitar has become a greatsword.)
-Reckless Abandon at Barbarian 2 (It says it increases based on levels the barbarian's attained, not barbarian levels... so this should count the bard levels, and it'll also actually be higher the penalty from Power Attack slightly)
-Superstition at Barbarian 4 (Same text as above, and no morale bonuses already granted by the controlled rage... seems like an ok plan.)
-Smasher at Barbarian 6 (WOO! PARTY!)
These are my plans at the moment, assuming we even get this high.
This seems like a homebrew archetype that would fit Rekkstuff pretty perfectly.
The fluff for it does fit perfectly... but the crunch behind it is definitely a nerf. You basically get a gargantuan perform check and nothing to do with it.
Yeah, I posted that before I read the whole way through. The Fluff was all I read, and I went back and actually looked it over, and thought to myself: "Nevermind"
FYI - I'll be out of town tomorrow, so probably won't get a chance to put in an update until Sunday evening my time (in roughly 48ish hours from this post).
Since it looks like everyone has pretty much agreed to play the gig, should I fast-forward to your arrival, or do you have other things you want to do first?
