This was my second grey elven bard win.

Skill set was reasonable thanks to find weakness and later got added archery and alertness (which I never managed to max out).
Sadly no concentration.

I got improved fireball but casting cost is a bit high for non mage.

Game was fairly generous and allowed me to boost to and str reasonably in early/midgame.
I didn't bother much with pets other than taming angry cat variety.
Two early scroll shops was nice but lack of water was an issue all through the game despite gravedigging FGJC and casino, I had soo many stat potions to bless.

Found a rods to save Khelavaster, but not much in extraordinary rolled items (as per bard description) the bonkers crystal shield 15/7 was an exception and it was used all through the end.

Crowned with Sun's messenger the FGJC Great Undead Vault was no big deal.
GUV on D46 was no more difficult and somewhere I got a rather large tension room of lich kings.
74 lich kings on kill list.....

Kinslayer was nice but lack of water made it not an option.
Swapped smithed blue dragon armour to shirt of the saints on d46.
Also filled up a nice stack of crappy artifacts (longsting, staff of the archmagi etc).
Got my rods from ring/poe un the way back up

Somehow I got aged 15+ years from a ghost tension room in ud, they hit me several times despite dv100 ...

Edit: Oh and had to use slow monster on self vs the balors on d50 to reach lvl 50.
