I wanted another shot or two at you (and some others). I even ranked up JUST for it. Now you're all gone.

Your plan might have held up ok if you'd gone elf. Otherwise...not so much.

Inherent bonus to romantic is only high elves, not wood elves. (I think that is the case, might be wrong)
I tried that build twice as a high elf. Once in Fort, once in battle. Still didn't like it.

Romantic is pretty underwhelming in general. The only ones I ever see using it are high elves, because of their innate bonus. But even then, they'll never have a fiend like tragic. Most of those edges raise it 1 level or something from what I found. Plus people will generally just use resist mental against you, so unless you're fighting villagers it gets harder to pull tricks on people once they know you are after them.
Pysch insight really doesn't help unless you're fighting high int people so it sort of negates a bit of their inherent int saves (I'm guessing int is related since singing to high elves is a pain) Pretty much I find even with it, high ints are still fairly difficult to sing to though.
Serenade I wouldn't bother with unless I play a female. Most chars and mobs are male you'll get more mileage out of it probably, and you get a few eq perks from being a woman. Yeah, power gamey I know.
Romantic instruments are fairly hard to come by, but then again, you can buy one of the nicest one's there is, and there are two others that are not legendary (there may be two legendary ones). One I thought was romantic turned out to be epic of all things, so sometimes it's just hard to know until you get them to compare. I think Hell had one or two nice romantics which are now inaccessible. The legendary ones are probably nicest, but I never see them there. Tragic instruments have a benefit of having one of the nicer ones being non-limited.
Apocalyptic for mobs, if they are higher level you will mostly just get illusions which are weaker than the other two. I tended to use it mostly for things vuln fire, ice or mental. I find it actually more useful in PK just because sometimes you hit that eradicate that people are not expecting. With the edge for it, it's pretty decent at hitting the vuln/avoiding the resist.

I had no idea this was you. I had Malawen pegged as more of a newbie.
You might need another run or two at bard to hit your stride with it, but if it doesn't agree with you then it doesn't agree with you.

There are some very nasty scrolls/staves you could have made good use of. But it's possible you'd feel an outlander shouldn't.

And you go up and delete! Like Twist said, stick with it longer to get a real feelign for it.
Anyways, was fun running with you for once!
