Aaftaab steps forward on Sabz’s back after he notices their bruised knuckles and heavy boots.
“Interesting. The messenger was beaten with fists, and her injuries match the bruises on your knuckles. We found footprints at the crime scene made by several heavy individuals wearing boots exactly like yours, leading from the alley toward the Slave Pits.”
He adjusts his bone crown a little.
“The messenger’s proclamation was stolen after she was searched, along with everything hidden in her pockets and a witness saw three burly attackers beating the messenger before taking something from her body and coming this way… perhaps you would like to explain?!”

Aaftaab’s large eyes narrow as he looks over the scene. He places a hand on Sabz’s neck, and gets closer to the crowd gathered around the slain messenger.
“Someone wanted this message silenced. Let us find out who was afraid of freedom.”
Searching the Body
Aaftaab kneels beside the messenger’s body and examines her clothing, equipment, and belongings.
Perception :1d20 + 15 ⇒ (17) + 15 = 32

Searching the Area Around the Body
He circles the crime scene, and studies footprints, disturbed dirt, discarded objects, and so on.
“Ground remembers every step. We only need to learn how to read it.”
Perception :1d20 + 15 ⇒ (8) + 15 = 23

Examining the Woman’s Injuries
Aaftaab studies the wounds themselves, and looks for clues.
“The dead cannot speak. Their wounds sometimes can.”
Heal :1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20
⸻
Speaking to the Dwarf Tradesman
Aaftaab watches him carefully and asks a couple of questions.
“Before asking questions, it helps to know what happened from your point of view good Sir.”
Sense Motive :1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
⸻
Speaking to the Young Street Urchin
Aaftaab is already eye level, and makes himself appear as non-threatening as possible.
“You have sharp eyes, yes? Sometimes heroes need help from people who notice things adults miss.”

Hello GM,
a couple of points on Aaftaab and his Animal Companion.
I am using the Inquisitor (Sacred Huntsmaster) ability to share Aaftaab's teamwork feats with the animal companion.
Especially, Pack Flanking which allows to almost always flank and Precise Strike which allows to then add +d6 precision damage per hit. And Outflank that allows to increase flank bonus to +4 together with Paired Opportunist to get two AoO vs. an enemy every time Aaftaab or the animal compa confirm a crit.
Please see all these teamwork feats below:
Please note that the Int / Combat Expertise requirements are fulfilled due to the Kinetic Knight Kineticist Archetype.
PACK FLANKING (Combat, Teamwork): Prerequisites : Int 13, Combat Expertise, ability to acquire an animal companion. Benefit : When you and your companion creature have this feat, your companion creature is adjacent to you or sharing your square, and you both threaten the same opponent, you are both considered to be flanking that opponent, regardless of your actual positioning.
Precise Strike (Combat, Teamwork): Prerequisites: Dex 13, base attack bonus +1. Benefit: Whenever you and an ally who also has this feat are flanking the same the creature, you deal an additional 1d6 points of precision damage with each successful melee attack. This bonus damage stacks with other sources of precision damage, such as sneak attack. This bonus damage is not multiplied on a critical hit.
PAIRED OPPORTUNIST (Combat, Teamwork): Benefit : Whenever you are adjacent to an ally who also has this feat, you receive a +4 circumstance bonus on attacks of opportunity against creatures that you both threaten. Enemies that provoke attacks of opportunity from your ally also provoke attacks of opportunity from you so long as you threaten them (even if the situation or an ability would normally deny you the attack of opportunity). This does not allow you to take more than one attack of opportunity against a creature for a given action.
OUTFLANK (Combat, Teamwork): Prerequisites : Base attack bonus +4. Benefit : Whenever you and an ally who also has this feat are flanking the same creature, your flanking bonus on attack rolls increases to +4. In addition, whenever you score a critical hit against the flanked creature, it provokes an attack of opportunity from your ally.
*
GM, also important is that Aaftaab as a Kineticist (Kinetic Knight) has the VOID Kinetic blade that hits TOUCH AC and does NEGATIVE ENERGY DAMAGE for the FIRST attack.
So Aaftaab cannot use this void blade for AoOs etc and has a Adamantine Kukri +1 for AoO attacks in his left hand and he also has two-weapon fighting.
So as Aaftaab has the teamwork feats mentioned above, when he is with his animal companion he is flanking.
*
So due to his Rogue levels he has +2d6 sneak attack and with precise strike that is another +1d6 total.
Aaftaab's attack routine:
Two weapon fighting with kukri slashing attack and void blade negative energy TOUCH attack:
- Void Kinetic blade with outflanking & two-weapon fight +13, negative energy hitting touch AC (1d6+1+3d6; 20/x2) To hit: BAB +4, Finesse +6, Size +1, +4 Flank with ’Outflank’ -2 two-weapon fighting / Damage: d6+ ½ Con + 2d6 Sneak Attack + d6 Precise Strike Feat

Aaftaab slides from Sabz’s back and slowly circles the structure, and his burnt half-face is illuminated by the strange celestial light. The bones fixed atop his head rattle as he studies the fountain. He traces the patterns, and attempts to understand the purpose behind the ancient magical schematics rather than their exact meaning.
Realign the glowing sigils and schematics (Use Magic Device) :1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
“Hmm. Magic likes rules. Ancient magic likes complicated rules.”
Afterward, Aaftaab begins searching every visible surface.
“Hidden things leave signs. They always leave signs.”
As the others work, Aaftaab suddenly hops onto a fragment of fallen masonry and addresses the ancient construct directly.
Improvise a phrase that encourages Gulgamodh to activate (Diplomacy) :1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18
“Gulgamodh! If you are sleeping, now is excellent time to wake up. And if you are deciding whether heroes are worth helping, I assure you we are at least moderately competent!”
Finally, he notices several pieces that appear newer than the rest of the structure, and Aaftaab produces his tools.
Remove parts of the fountain that aren’t part of the original construction (Disable Device) :1d20 + 21 ⇒ (12) + 21 = 33
“Someone changed you after you were built. Let us see what they were trying to hide.”
Beside him, Sabz lets out a curious chirp while watching for any sudden movement.

Aaftaab’s wide eyes brighten as the reports come in one after another, and the small grippli is clearly impressed by how effectively the Pathfinders had answered every crisis placed before them.
Aaftaab accepts a potion of fly from the wagon owner with both webbed hands.
“Chaldira smiles upon clever preparation! If demons and stitched monstrosities truly march upon Absalom, then every small advantage may decide who survives the coming battle. Flying is sometimes important!!”

CATCHING A SPY Acrobatics :1d20 + 12 ⇒ (9) + 12 = 21
Aaftaab leaps silently between the rooftops with uncanny agility, Sabz darting after him as he tries to cut off the fleeing spy’s escape route.
“Run faster, little spy… Sabz enjoys the chase.”
EVACUATION NOTICE (Diplomacy :1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32
Aaftaab tries to calmly convince frightened citizens to abandon their homes, speaking with quiet sincerity rather than threats.
“Bravery is not dying for your home… it is living long enough to return to it.”
RECONNAISSANCE (Perception :1d20 + 15 ⇒ (17) + 15 = 32
Perched silently atop ruined stonework, Aaftaab studies enemy troop movements while Sabz watches for hidden patrols.
“Too many banners… too disciplined for raiders. Something waits behind them.”
STRANGE THINGS (Perception :1d20 + 15 ⇒ (1) + 15 = 16
Aaftaab tries to notice subtle distortions in shadows.
“The darkness here is wrong… it moves like something breathing.”
URGENT REPAIRS (Disable Device :1d20 + 23 ⇒ (6) + 23 = 29
Aaftaab tries to secure broken alchemical containers and tries to repair the wagon mechanisms before anything can explode.
“Please do not touch anything until I finish… especially the glowing parts.”
USEFUL GOSSIP (Diplomacy :1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24
Aaftaab quietly listens to dockworkers, merchants, and refugees, gently guiding conversations until useful information surfaces naturally.
“People speak freely when they feel safe… so let them speak.”

Aaftaab, was your ioun torch purchased normally? If so, I believe that such items always default to the lowest level of the baseline casters (wizards, clerics, druids, bards), in which case it would be treated as a 2nd level spell, not 3rd.

YES! Have fun!!

So to your questions GM regarding if ride is necessary:
Let us start with this from the ride skill description:
"You are skilled at riding mounts, usually a horse, but possibly something more exotic, like a griffon or pegasus. If you attempt to ride a creature that is ill suited as a mount, you take a –5 penalty on your Ride checks."
So riding a velociraptor can be considered by GMs as illsuited so -5 to Ride is what I take into account usually but your call.
.
From the ride skill description:
"Typical riding actions don’t require checks. You can saddle, mount, ride, and dismount from a mount without a problem. The following tasks do require checks."
So riding usually does not require a skill check. The mount moves but you have to have one hand to ride the animal because there is a specific rule:
Guide with Knees: You can guide your mount with your knees so you can use both hands in combat. Make your Ride check at the start of your turn. If you fail, you can use only one hand this round because you need to use the other to control your mount. This does not take an action.
The DC for this is 5. Even if you would rule that a velociraptor is not suited as mount and give -5 to ride then that would be DC 10 and Aaftaab has +10 ride so auto-succeeds and thus I do not make ride checks as Aaftaab is always guiding with knees.
In case Aaftaab has a penalty (e.g. shaken) then I will always roll ride checks.
-
Then it is important that Sabz knows the Attack and Attack/Attack trick so it is combat trained.
From the ride skill:
"Fight with a Combat-Trained Mount: If you direct your war-trained mount to attack in battle, you can still make your own attack or attacks normally. This usage is a free action."
------
Now to handle animal. Normally commanding your mount is a move action but because this is an animal companion with LINK it is a free action.
"Link (Ex): A druid can handle her animal companion as a free action, or push it as a move action, even if she doesn’t have any ranks in the Handle Animal skill. The druid gains a +4 circumstance bonus on all wild empathy checks and Handle Animal checks made regarding an animal companion."
-
To handle an animal and give it a command for a trick that it knows is DC 10. If the animal is wounded or has taken any nonlethal damage or ability score damage, the DC increases by 2.
So the max DC to command my mount is DC 12 for a trick it knows.
My handle animal is +11 so Aaftaab auto-succeeds commanding. In case Aaftaab has a penalty (e.g. shaken) then I will always roll handle animal.
Male NG Grippli | Inquisitor 3, Kineticist 1, Rogue 3 | HP 68/68 | NOW: AC 24 vs. evil | AC 22 T 17 FF 16 | CMB +0, CMD 16 | F: +11, R: +13 (Evasion), W: +9 | Init: +9 | Perc: +15 vs. traps +1, SM: +10, Dipl.: +13 | Darkvision 60ft | Dipl. reroll 3/3 | Chaldira Reroll 1/1 | T-Shirt Reroll 1/1 | Spells 1st 3/4 | Speed 30ft | Active conditions: prot. from evil, ioun torch
Aaftaab is riding Sabz and moves forward.
Moving another 60 ft on Sabz. Aaftaab still has move and standard actions depending on what happens. I will answer ride/handle animal later today in the discussion GM. :-)
A Crit from Aaftaab provokes an AoO from Sabz because of OUTFLANK and this leads to another AoO for Aaftaab because of PAIRED OPPORTUNIST. See spoiler below.
“What are these things that attacked Kala?!?“ he asks.
To hit / Damage calculations and sneak attack legitimation:

A Crit from Aaftaab provokes an AoO from Sabz because of OUTFLANK and this leads to another AoO for Aaftaab because of PAIRED OPPORTUNIST.
OUTFLANK (Combat, Teamwork): Prerequisites : Base attack bonus +4. Benefit : Whenever you and an ally who also has this feat are flanking the same creature, your flanking bonus on attack rolls increases to +4. In addition, whenever you score a critical hit against the flanked creature, it provokes an attack of opportunity from your ally.
PAIRED OPPORTUNIST (Combat, Teamwork): Benefit : Whenever you are adjacent to an ally who also has this feat, you receive a +4 circumstance bonus on attacks of opportunity against creatures that you both threaten. Enemies that provoke attacks of opportunity from your ally also provoke attacks of opportunity from you so long as you threaten them (even if the situation or an ability would normally deny you the attack of opportunity). This does not allow you to take more than one attack of opportunity against a creature for a given action.

Aaftaab nods at Azrael.
“Yes, I’ll step through the hole. You coming?“ the grippli with the bone crown says and he throws an ioun torch up which circles his head with a continual flame spell.
Aaftaab has dark vision. Sabz has lowlight vision.
Sabz and Aaftaab squeeze through the opening and look around.

Aaftaab looks at Guy and Azrael and nods.
“You are new here as well … hopefully we don’t die. I was asked to come by Tofang who I know for the church of
The Calamitous Turn!!“
He looks at Kala and Lucifer and shakes his head.
“You two had to endure a lot. Maybe you’ll let Chaldira into your heart! I am your lucky charm this time!“ he says while petting his velociraptor animal companion. “This is Sabz. Your companion looks strong Kala … sorry your former friend died!“
He jump on his companion’s back.
“I am the crown prince of a proud Grippli tribe but I have to prove myself and find luck in this life so that I can bring all fortune back to my people! Which tribe do you all belong to?“ the grippli with the half burned face asks.

Aaftaab, ok, sounds like some good shenanigans as well. I'll admit that I've never quite wrapped my head fully around the kineticist class, not to mention this particular archetype, so there will probably be things that I'll have to ask you about but no worries for now.
The blade is actually only a ‘use one time per attack’ touch attack with negative energy. I can’t use it for much more and burn is ignored as the archetype guarantees no burn for the kinetic blade. That’s it. ;-) I just have the archetype for ignoring combat expertise.
The charm comes into play when the animal companion also uses all the teamwork feats but with our bard here in the group I think the +6 to damage / hit … well it be crazy.
