Speaker of the Palatine Eye for Carrion crown.


Advice


Hi everybody!
I just saw a few days ago the new bard archetype, Speaker of the Palatine Eye and fell immediately in love with the concept. A bard (because you don't lose anything of real value with this archetype) who casts psychic spells from the mesmerist spell list. And while it requires you to worship Pharasma, it doesn't prevent you from worshipping other deities as well.

I began to imagine a character for Carrion Crown. A nobleman, who presents himself as a diplomat and an erudite.
Oracle of Lore 1 for Cha instead of Dex to AC, Cha instead of Int for Knowledge checks and maybe later Focused Trance as an extra revelation. I like the idea that he learns everything in "Salons" and "dinners".
Then Speaker of the Palatine Eye for the rest.
He could fight and cast while in medium armor and wearing a shield and weapon!
Of course, Noble Scion(war) for Cha to Init, Steadfast personnality is along the way because I don't want to fail a will save.
The first question I have is, if I take 1 level of Sorcerer(Undead)bloodline, does the bloodline arcana works for my Bard spells too?
If so it could be very potent!
If you have feats ideas or other ideas for this kind build I would be really glad!

All your spells are affected by the undead bloodline arcana so it you’re willing to be multiclassed in three different classes you can certainly do that. Not a bad way to go. Just keep in mind it doesn’t affect all undead.

Personally I don’t think steadfast personality is super worth it considering you would be getting the +2 saves from oracle, sorc, and bard for a +6 at level 3, and while this requires you to be neutral good, since you’re a worshipper of Pharasma, you can pick up some scrolls of Bestow Grace for Cha to saves

Thank you! Good news! In fact it doesn't require you any alignment. You need to worship Pharasma they don't require you to be within one step....

Bestow Grace (The spell) requires you to be good for any bonus, sorry if I wasn't clear on that.
Worship in Pathfinder mechanically requires you to be within one step of whatever deity you worship. Veneration doesn't require that but you don't gain any mechanical benefits from veneration.
Thus you have to be neutral good for this build and use of bestow grace.
