I noticed that Pathfinder has many companions for the factions and races. can theses be used in pathfinder society or are these meant to give your character a better background so you can role play your character better?

I've never been a wizard before and had a question with ranged touch attacks. I know with a touch attack you use a normal attack roll but with a ranged touch attack would you use dexterity as you would when using a ranged weapon. And also on skills. In the old 3.4 edition you could take your beginning skills and times them by four to get your full skill points. I've read the new pathfinder book but it doesn't mention this. Does this mean when making a new character you just add your intelligence score to what your class gets. Thanks for anyone's help and any tips on wizards would be awesome.

I do agree that killing 100 babies to stop an evil priest is evil. But still that is an action that defines a character. If you ever come across an LN Cleric wanting to kill innocents to achieve a goal then yes he is evil and should be destroyed. but a more clever LN Cleric would find a way around the babies. Perhaps destroy the talisman he needs or desecrate the unholy site. and then you kill him with undead. Still the undead are nothing more than a weapon. Now also about returning the undead to life. Even as a LN Cleric of Asmodeus just the notion of bringing a ghoul back to life makes my skin crawl. The book says "Ghouls are created upon the death of a living man or woman who savored the taste of the flesh of people.Some believe that anyone of exceptional debauchery and wickedness runs the risk of becoming a ghoul." Now if there is any cleric out there who wants to bring a person like that back to life would need to seriously consider there alignment if they have a good or lawfull descriptor. Now how about Zombies. they are created through dark and sinister magic. From what i see there souls have departed and there empty husks are left behind. And its the magic that makes them walk not there souls or minds. I would personally like to take control of them and have them fight each other and not my fellow pathfinders. Wraiths i dont know about you but they can be very annoying but if commanded can be very helpfull. And since they are born of evil and darkness i dont know anyone that would even attempt to bring them back to life. And last but not least Skeletons. They are just reanimated bones. They are reanimated by magic not there souls or minds. These are the only undead Shaden has come up against so he sees no problem using them to help the cause of the group and his nation. Now like i said before but with a slight variation: IT IS OUR ACTIONS AND OUR MEANS THAT DEFINE US. NOT THE WEAPONS WE USE!

Now go with Asmodeus but be warned for soon the Chelaxian Empire will rise.

I have a character named Shaden and he is a LN Cleric who worships Asmodeus. I have made him so that he can rebuke and command undead. I have read every post and must say i am dissappointed that no one has yet to ask the important question. WHAT TWO REALMS DOES THE LN CLERIC USE. Now Shaden uses the realms Fire and Trickery. He doesn't even touch the Evil realm. He has chosen these realms based on his past. If anyone wants to know his past email: brianturner9@hotmail.com. I warn you though its lengthy. Now when Shaden commands undead he uses them to complete the mission and to aid his comrades. I can't tell you the times his commanded undead has saved the party. And almost everytime the party has killed the undead after the fight that they helped with. Is the party grateful? Probably. But there characters hated undead and decided to destroy them. Was my character mad? Not really he figures there is more undead in the world to control. Every action he takes is not evil and has not used the undead to hurt anyone. He uses them as a fighter would use a sword or an archer a bow. Now yes you can kill an innocent with a sword or accidently kill a child with a misplaced shot from a bow. But still its the act that was evil not the weapon. Undead are nothing more than walking weapons that do as you tell them to do. They are only evil if you use them for evil actions. So dont judge a charcter by the choice of his weapons but by the actions he takes. Is a cleric evil if he commands his undead to destroy a farm? YES! Is a cleric evil if he commands his undead to attack goblins and save a city? NO! IT IS OUR ACTIONS THAT DEFINE US, NOT THE WEAPONS IN WHICH WE USE.

Now go with Asmodeus but be warned for soon the Chelaxian Empire will rise.

I want to make a warrior character that is specialized for mounted combat but was wondering if we are allowed to buy mounts whenever we want or do we have to have access to them through a scenario.

With my character craft alchemy at +11 (4 ability, 4 ranks, and 3 skill focus) i should range from 20gp to 75gp. Which is good because those alchemy labs aren't cheap.
