For no particular reason I decided that Goma's internal dialog with Tuk Tuk (his Eidolon) would be on a higher intellectual plane than his spoken word. Let me know if it's distracting or breaks the mood.

Glab did the slugs first, then the boar, and the marsh last. Only the Rusty Earbiter he didn't do, because it freaked him out.
Thanks for still including the boar riding after the marsh! I like the way you described how Glab rode the boar, as it really suits his personality.
And we all miss something sometimes, no big problem :)

I only just realized having the skill fly doesn't give a character the ability to fly. The skill fly makes a character more adept at flying when using other means to do so, those means being wings or magic. I thought, magic being a way to fly, a caster could simply do it when having the skill fly.
Glab has flown a couple of times up till now, but mostly in roleplay situations. Should I rewrite the part in his background that involves flying, and simply not use it anymore? Luckily we're still at an early point in the story.
Shame for the skill point, but so be it :/
Technically you can't even put skill points into fly unless you have the means to actually take flight. I guess it's hard to practice a skill without the means to use it. Maybe the GM will be nice and allow (require) you to put the skill point elsewhere? ;-)
As far as the roleplaying so far, my vote would be not worry about it. Call it a really cinematic jump.
GM has final word of course...

Yeah, I know you can't fly, but it was far too entertaining to watch you roleplay it. Helecoptergoblin. Plus this isn't a serious serious game. I like that it's fun and silly. You can go ahead and fly around roleplay style but I won't allow for any sort of combat advantage eg. you can't fly over difficult terrain or shoot arrows from high above at a melee character.
If you wish to reallocate the skill point you are welcome do so.

Probably due to Glab being one of my first Pathfinder characters I've made a mistake in his sheet when creating him: I forgot to give him a feat. To correct this I've given him a feat just now.
I thought you should know as the feat I've chosen for Glab (Dodge) gives him +1 to AC, and you may wonder where that +1 suddenly comes from.
I've never played a summoner before so I'm not entirely sure how this works. Normally if you summon a second creature the first disappears. Eidolons are summoned creatures but seem to be treated a little differently in this regard.
Eidolons are treated as summoned creatures, except that they are not sent back to their home plane until reduced to a number of negative hit points equal to or greater than their Constitution score.
However you want to play it is fine with me. Goma cast the summon monster I spell after Tuk Tuk's attack.

I was wondering about the same thing. Once I'm back from work I'm going to look into it. And I'll have a ruling. Either way if you Summon on this turn or cast the spell the creature will only be able to attack during the next round, unless I'm mistaken.

It should be able to attack right away (not that it maters, it's attack rolls weren't that high). The spell-like ability is summon monster 1
This spell summons an extraplanar creature (typically an outsider, elemental, or magical beast native to another plane). It appears where you designate and acts immediately, on your turn. It attacks your opponents to the best of its ability.

Goma - strait from the Summoner Class Description.
Summon Monster I (Sp): Starting at 1st level, a summoner can cast summon monster I as a spell-like ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + his Charisma modifier. Drawing upon this ability uses up the same power as the summoner uses to call his eidolon. As a result, he can only use this ability when his eidolon is not summoned.
Now, you could technically cast the regular spell, but then the Eagle would only get one attack and vanish anyways as the regular spell has a duration of 1 Round per Level. This class ability, if you continue reading, allows your summoned creatures to stay in place for up to 1 minute per level.
EDIT: Just read the upper potion, it didn't state I had new posts in the discussion board. Anywho, the casting time for Summon Monster 1 is a full round action. Normally, when you cast a spell like this, then it takes effect the following round. However, Summon monster was written a bit diffrent, as the spell actually manifests and the creature attack the round you cast as this attack is part of the spell. However, if you can not summon the creature next to an enemy then it will not be able to attack that turn. He only get a free attack, not a move.
Perfect, thanks.

@Lord_Zekk:
About the touch defense: I read the rule concerning it and mentioned it's your AC minus armor bonus, shield bonus, or natural armor bonus. So that obviously leaves size bonus and dexterity bonus.
But what about the dodge bonus, shouldn't that be included in touch defense as well? It seems dodge bonuses are only denied when dexterity bonuses are. So that would make my touch defense 15.
And thanks for mentioning it! :) I never realized I wrote down the wrong touch defense.
