Many folks have heard of the Supermount... basically, a build that results in having a rediculous mount. It's cool, but it's very late to get into swing and the main character is pretty darn weak. So here's a simpler version that works with non halflings.
Fey Divine Bard 17/Sacred Exorcist 1/PrC Paladin of Freedom 2 (Varient classes found in UA)
Fey Bard 1 Extend Spell
Fey Bard 2
Fey Bard 3 Persistant Spell
Fey Bard 4
Fey Bard 5
Fey Bard 6 Mounted Combat
Fey Bard 7
Sacred Exorcist 1
PrC Paladin of Freedom 1 Natural Bond
PrC Paladin of Freedom 2
Fey Bard 8
Fey Bard 9 Devoted Tracker
Fey Bard 10
Fey Bard 11
Fey Bard 12 Holy Mount
Fey Bard 13
Fey Bard 14
Fey Bard 15 Divine Metamagic: Persistant Spell
Fey Bard 16
Fey Bard 17
In the end, you have a 23rd level Paladin mount and a 20th level Animal Companion, which are combined into one. Plus, you can use DMM for Persistant spells, and you get all Bard spells plus all Paladin only spells, which is pretty darn handy.
If I could get into Sacred Exorcist faster, this would work better, as I could get into Paladin earlier and thus get Devoted Tracker faster. Not sure how to pull it off though. Not sure what should go in that last feat slot either. But still, it's a fun little build concept.
