My character is a Cave Druid with a Roc animal companion. The Roc is large, the ooze is medium

1. Can I use ride skill or handle animal to ride the Roc and attack from its back?

2. What is the penalty to ride check if you are an ooze? Can you get a special saddle to mitigate that penalty?

3. If I ride up to a monster can I attack as an ooze from Rocback?

4. Can I vital strike from Rocback, can your mount move more than 5' and still allow you to make a standard action attack like vital strike or cleave?

5. I know vital strike can't be combined with charge/spring attack what if my AC has spring attack though? Could I use vital strike to make an attack while the AC is spring attacking? Maybe ready an action to attack when it gets close enough to a target?

6. Can I direct my mount with my "knees"?

7. Do I need to make a ride check or does animal handling work to direct the pet to move and attack?
