I’ve had something unexpected come up; I’m going to be offline for a while entirely not sure how long.
I’ll try to get back when I can.

Shiv smiles as he gets into the fight. Move: Move forward to M12
Shiv casts light on his scythe and he and croc both half move towards the battle.
Shiv advances slowly and cautiously along with a bow medium sized croc.
So other than giving someone a swim speed, I’m completely tapped on magic currently, and looks like croc growing Ali’s a 3/day ability (with no duration? So indefinite?) so he can’t do that yet- so my vote is for resting. That said, ultimately I’m a melee character so I can still study target and swing my scythe infinite times if people really want to push ahead as is.
These levels tend to chain together- I’m just worried if we don’t do it now we will keep having to “deal with it now” until we’re utterly spent and dying.
If we have the possibility of resting before more combat we absolutely need to
Shiv holds his position, weapon drawn, and nods at Croc who enters his war form if whatever is down there wants to attack.
Shiv casts light on his scythe and advances slowly into the room.
"If it takes muscle, it's on me then. . ."
I believe RAW it does stack- those Mental +2 and Physical +2s (etc) are meant to replace the Belt of Dex/Headband of Intellect and they are Enhancement bonuses (so won't stack with a cast Bull's Strength for instance), whereas the +1 every 4 is an inherent bonus that goes to your "real" stat.
Yeah, it looks like the best route for me is just going to be to go with power attack- will get furious focus at 5th then.
Yeah, and I get it with my Samsaran magic ability, but I don't know which edition I was thinking where it was 1st level or what lol. With that in mind, I will be replacing Restoration with Inflict Light wounds instead of inflict moderate so I don't crowd myself on 2nd level spells with that ability.
SO, I want to apologize-- I've been playing that Spiritual Weapon is a 1st level spell in this game. I do not know why I thought it was? It's pretty clearly marked 2nd, but somehow I spaced when making the character and inadvertently cheated the first two levels along the way here-- sorry for that, I have corrected it going forward.
"Aye, mine as well. . . a night's sleep and we should be better set."
Now you just need to add Opportune Parry & Riposte to use your AOOs to deflect attacks.
Level 3
+5 HP (+3 for familiar) +1 BaB, +1 Ref Save +1 Climb, Disable Device, Perception, Swim (training in Climb and Swim the first time adding the +3 Class Skill bonus) Familiar also gains +1 STR and the Battle Form abilities Automatic Bonus Progression-- +1 Resistance! I am unsure how to spend my feat. . . power attack maybe, but its not good until I can get Furious Focus to pair with it, so I'm not sure.
Shiv looks at croc, "Sorry, no time to play in the water." Then they follow Lash through the wall.
Shiv tries to scramble over the wall.
Shiv lifts croc up and hands him across, then shouts out, "Come on Marcos- we're the last left!"
Congrats!
Shiv will stand his ground, "Lash! Slim! Get over here!" Standard
Shiv stands by the door, prepared to try to hoist the others across, "Croc, get here!" The dwarf caimon comes over to Shiv.
Shiv motions to Sim, "Here, let me boost you over the top!"
Shiv continues helping with the lock.
Shiv does what he can to help. "Hrm, this a*#&#*~ again!"
"The hammer it is, then. . ."
"No, I guess not. . "
"A. . . chest? That's strange. . . " Shiv cautiously approaches the chest, checking to see if it is locked.
Shiv moves over and attempts to tie the man up.
"Do we need to tie this one up?" Shiv pulls out his rope from his pack.
I'm good either way- I do the spoiler thing for many/most of my games, especially anything published like scenarios. BUT Perception for noticing the start of the encounter I always roll along with Init for simplicity. And when its specifically for identifying qualities of a monster I go back and forth between the spoiler, or saying something like
Shiv follows lash along, letting croc trail behind them.
Shiv nods, following behind Sim and raising his scythe in preparation. He takes a moment to focus on croc and call his familiar to come closer to him.
Shiv takes the packet, and inspecting it, eats it if her determines it is safe.
"Ah, the circle of life. . . uncivilized, perhaps, but why waste resources they would say, I suppose?"
"You there! Please, stop and listen for a minute!"
Shiv edges forward
Unable to particularly sway the people, Shiv begins advancing around the corner to get a better look at what is there.
Shiv advances behind Kahli.
Shiv watches the others, holding his scythe tight in case he needs to use it.
"You can speak to these people?" Shiv asks, while sizing them up. Tentatively he steps out into the room, scythe drawn but lowered.
Shiv nods, and flings the door open with great violence.
"I think you'd better take a look at this one, Lash."
Shiv nods and inspects the doors in the room, choosing the one to the right to look at first.
either way it isn't relevant at 2nd level- this is swapping Restoration (6th level spell) for Inflict Moderate Wounds (2nd level spell), which I will do, but won't gain access to till 3rd level.
I'm not sure if that feature is retrainable? No clue- it's a weird racial feature already, but yes, adding one of the inflicts to my list might be good since I specifically took Animate Dead- I think Restoration would probably be the drop if it is retrainable- That would give me- Spiritual Weapon (big offensive option I wanted for the floating Scythe attacking alongside me with my scythe) Bless Weapon (obvious choice since its only Paladin otherwise and very good) Animate Dead (to bring the dark/evil druid thing full circle of life and death) Inflict (probably moderate?) wounds- to put a heal option for Kahli + the undead on the list (at 2nd level presumably)
