I submit Nasir Background:
Nasir’s parents own the most successful inn in all of Katapesh hosting talented performers and entertainment of the highest quality. As a little girl, Nasir would silently creep downstairs after her bedtime to watch the beautiful dancers that performed in the common room. By far the most amazing of these was the legendary Halim al’Vizhir, her movements seemed more than human, almost magical. That was where Nasir’s obsession with dance and music began. When she turned 13 her parents finally, after much haranguing, agreed to allow her to study with Halim, the dancer pleased to find a student who approached dance whole heartedly. She thought her to listen not only with her ears, but with every fiber of her being, how to abandon herself to the primal music of life, and most of all, how to express it with her body. Hours they would spend dancing, learning the subtle movements of hands and arms, the sway of the hips and twist of the torso that turned the dancer into a conduit for the primal rhythm of life itself. It would be her other interest however, that would lead her to leave her home. Her father possessed a sizeable personal library, and Nasir grew up devouring the tales of Lucky Farouk and reading of the Pathfinder Society. She dreamed of adventure, a dream that took root in her soul and grew the day Pathfinders stayed at her parents inn. As she mastered her art, the dream grew, unrelenting, until on her 20th birthday she set out for the distant land of Absolom to apply for membership. The application went well, granting her full membership and her first assignment; join Garavel’s group to investigate ancient structures in the area and determine the reason for Kelmarane’s abandonment. Determined to impress her new brotherhood she has set out to discover the secrets of her homeland.
Personality:
Nasir is a creature of passion, living life to its full extent every opportunity she gets. Filled with an insatiable appetite for new experiences and knowledge, she looks at everything with eyes eager to learn something. Her greatest love is music, and she will leap at any opportunity to dance. Spoiler:
If one word were used to describe Nasir, it would have to be luscious. Blessed with sun-kissed skin, scintillating curves and an hourglass figure that boasts a little extra sand in all the right places, her body appeals to the eyes and calls out to the arms. Long dark hair frames a beautiful face featuring dark smoky eyes, a full sensual mouth and the profile of a desert queen. Her walk, her laugh and even her breathing carry a subtle yet intoxicating rhythm, a melody that seems to harmonize with the observer’s heartbeat, calling out to them to join the dance. Male or female all find it hard to look away. Mujahid Al-Asad wrote:
Yeah the characther was built a while ago, I'll happily redesign her if there's interest.Also those are skill modifyers listed, in most cases there'e aren't points in a lot of those skills just ability mods. Interested here's my character from a previous attempt at the adventure path that didn't pan out.Considering retooling slightly to either the Celebrity or Dawnflower Dervish archetypes.

Her fluid movements stops, a sudden jarring end that is a clear indication that something is wrong. Her eyes widen her full crimson lips work onece, twice, alttemplint to produce sound. She sways, a trickle of blood appearing at the corner of her mouth as she looks down at the end of the arrow puckering her bare skin.

An eeirie music fills te air as the nubile dancer hurls her body into a frenzy of scintillatingmovements designed to inspire, callings to the blood and sending a rush of heat with it. Initiating bardic music to Inspire Courage "Perhaps I have a distraction." Nasir closes her eyes for amoment, her body swaying alluringly as he hands trace sigils in the air. Her movements come to an end as she exhales in a puff of air blown towards the indicated location. At the opening a sound, similar to the yipping of a few pugwampis fills the air, echoing throughout the area. ghost sound As Nasir follows the others she is taken by the beauty of the ancient mural. Her eyes drink in the scene, as she searches her memory for any reference of these magnificent images. Knowledge History, Knowledge Planes 1d20+5=7, 1d20+3=17 "There should be more dormitories, and probably a dining hall probably through the archways on the other side of this corridor. The focus of the building will be the chapel. The main part of the building'll be the chapel, the large structure at the north-west corner of the building. I'm pretty sure it's the biggest chamber. It might be more than one level. There's probably another large chamber or space, a scriptorium, garden or courtyard, probably quite centrally located, so North of here." Nasir dances forward her whip whirling around as she flicks it forward at the advancing ape. 1d20=14, 1d6=4 Nasir thanks Farasha for the return of her scimitar. As the group approaches Nasir makes a quick sketch to the temple, taking note of it's condition. She studies the structure intently observing its design and wear, seeking possible hazards, and considering possible entrances that the group or the pugwampi's may use. She spent much time entering old places in her teen years when her parents were busy, and it is this experience she calls upon now. 1st roll Knowledge Engineering; 2nd roll Knowledge Dungeoneering 1d20+2=19, 1d20+2=12 Nasir spends some time trading stories whit the guards she spoke with earlier and flirting heavily.

DM Spoiler:
The potion belt lets her draw it as a free action, but you're right that drinking it is standard not move equivalent. Since everyone used the bonus on their rolls, she'll dance on the first round, and draw the potion and drink on the second round. She'll make any attack of opportunity that come up since her daggerwhip is in her right hand. Perform check to maintain dance while drinking potion(replaces concentration; therefore spellcraft 1d20+7=26, 1d20+7=22
