Oracle of Life / Bard leadsinger


Advice


So I have this character idea for a campaign that I'm going to be joining soon. The characters are around 8th or 9th level so I'm considering a level 9 character.
The party currently consists of:
Fighter/Paladin/Dualist
Wolf Shaman Druid
Pistolero Gunslinger.

I want to play the lead singer of the band "The Metatrons." He also happens to be the only living member of the band. He's an Aasimar Oracle of Life with the Haunted curse. I'd like to find a way to get the Bard's Inspire Courage ability- I've got a whole list of songs I plan on using for my bardic music, like Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus," Philip Philip's "Home" etc etc. I was hoping to find a Revelation that allowed me to Inspire Courage as per the Bard ability (The DM is pretty lenient towards allowing things for themed characters) Failing that I was thinking of taking 1 level in bard just to pick it up. I want the Positive Elemental revelation to use for his "concert" signature move, where at the end he bursts into a white burning positive elemental. I plan on using a Greataxe (and playing the guitar for my instrument) for my weapon and wearing full plate, or the best medium armor if I don't have the feats for the armor proficiency.

So here's what I've got so far in a nutshell:
Aasimar
Oracle of Life
Bard dip, possibly something else, I was considering Cavalier with the banner archtype to get the heavy armor proficiency and reskinning or just singing along while using the ability.
Greataxe weapon.
15 point buy.
I'd like to take the Aasamir feats Angel Blood, Angel Skin (steel) and Angel Wings at 10th level.

I'm open to suggestions for character portraits, songs, ideas on making the build better/achieving what I want in a more optimized fasion or any other thoughts people have on the build.

Thanks!


Bumping since it got lost in the wee hours of forum traffic.

I'd look at the cleric Evangelist Archetype and see whether you could work out something similar for an oracle. I think giving only Inspire Courage - Not the entire range of Bardic Performance abilities - wouldn't be too powerful for a revelation. I would also put a minimum level of 3 or 5 to help balance it. That wouldn't affect you though.


Yeah i was thinking of offering up a new revelation to the dm similar to battlecry from the battle domain or evangelist cleric.
