Hey all.

I made a character for Pathfinder for the first time and wanted to make sure that I did everything right. So here's my methodology. (Note: This is only using the core rulebook)

I decided I wanted to become a Half-Elf Cleric. First, I rolled my ability scores using the classic method which I then aligned as follows:
Strength: 12 (Mod 1)
Dexterity: 11 (Mod 1)
Constitution: 9 (Mod -1)
Intelligence: 7 (Mod -2)
Wisdom: 18 (Mod 4) (yes, I rolled a natural 18)
Charisma: 12 (Mod 1)

Thanks to me being a half elf, I added my +2 Ability score to Charisma, bringing it to 14 and my modifier to 2. After that, I listed all my specials from being a Half-Elf and gave my skill focus to Heal, giving it a +3 modifier.

As a Cleric, I checked off all my class skills. I decided to have my deity be Sarenrae and have my domains be Sun and Healing. This also follows as I am a Neutral Good Character. When I go to my spell slots, I can cast 3 0 Level Spells and 2 Level 1 Spells + 1 Domain Spell (2 Level 1 Because 1 Base + My Wisdom Modifier).

Going to skills, due to intelligence modifier, I could only get one skill point, which I put onto Spellcraft. So Spellcraft gains 1 rank putting it at 1 and, because it is a class skill, it gains a further +3 modifier to it.

For feats, I gave myself Selective Channeling.

Buying equipment: I rolled for gold and got 8, giving me 80 GP. I took Cleric Vestments as a free item, then I bought one leather armor, one buckler, one backpack, one silver holy symbol, 10 rations, one bedroll, two torches and a scimitar. In the end, I was left with 17 GP, 8 SP and 8 CP.

I calculated my AC to be 14, my initiative as 1, Fortitude as 1, Reflex as 1, Will as 6, CMB as 1, CMD as 12, Speed is 30, With Armor Speed is 30.

And that is how I made my character. Please let me know if I missed anything for the character creation and, if I did, what I should do. And if you have advice on how I built my character, please let me know as well.
Thank you!
