Kobold Bard? 3.5e

[Darius Rae]

With school starting up again soon, so will a new campaign. I have recently decided that the bard is a class made of pure awesome, and I love dragons. In this new campaign (it will be a sandbox game so I can't guess what exactly we will be doing) I want to combine the ideas of the bard and the dragon past the simple DFI builds.

What I really want to know is if anyone has ideas of how to make a kobold (or other draconic race) bard that would be awesome to rp. The group that I will play with will not be optimizers so I am ok with not picking whisper gnome or human for bard like I feel like I should.

edit: I would prefer a snowflake wardance / weapon finesse build over a ranged build, but I will take whatever works
