When Hexblades want to prove who's better, they just go and try to find dates. Whoever has the worst luck with the ladies wins. Of course, those who have the best luck win too, but that's another story.

Nah, hexblades don't have bad luck. Other people have bad luck around hexblades.

That's actually how I met my hexblade girlfriend, with one foot in a potted plant, a giant ink stain on my shirt, and a handful of lottery tickets.

Also my pants were on fire.

That's not true. It is just proof that I can make a Diplomacy check even with horrible negatives.

You see, my pants were on fire because of a friction spark that ignited some lantern oil that spilled onto my lap after I bumped the lantern stepping in the potted plant on my way back from the lottery store. I quickly asked someone for the phone number of a dry cleaner, but when they lent me a pen it exploded onto my shirt. I shreiked in surprise and they paniced and began to hit me with a burlap sack, causing the friction that sparked my pants. So, having enough HP to not worry about 1d6 damage a round, I sauntered into the tavern for a drink, walked up to the bar, and having spotted a cute girl, proceded to say

Hey baby, wanna see my wand of cure what ails ya?

Then the party carried us both through the forest while we ate grapes and played our harps in the sun. Best. NPC. Evar.

And that was mostly done as part of a running joke.
I have the sudden urge to PC a bard in a party with you. Of course, the last time I was part of Team Bard, my fellow PC and I invented the Kogo Beast, which was some of the most hilarious roleplaying I've ever experienced.

Go Team Bard!

That gives me an idea. Team Charisma! Hexblade as the frontline warrior, Spellthief as the skillmonkey, Bard as the healer and Sorcerer as the boomstick.

Dhavaer, your ideas are like candy from the sky, sprinkled lightly with cinnamon.

That is brilliant. I want in. If we go gestalt, I've been sitting on a Bard//Paladin of Bahamut concept for a while now. Divine Grace FTW!

I do love the idea of a party where everybody gets a turn as the party face.
