A Modern Bard (without magic)
I am trying to create an interesting version of bard for modern settings without magic. I must admit I am a bit stumped as to what 'powers' to give such a character. Any ideas or suggestions?

By "without magic" do you mean "without any abilities that have magical effects" or just "without the ability to cast spells"?
Both I guess... but I also am willing to go to 'extraordinary' effects. Just not magical in nature.
The bard from Dark Sun lost out on magic, but in return they got access to a lot of poisons and poisoncrafting. That might be a good starting point.
@squirewaldo just came across this on DriveThru, it's for White Star:
