It can help if you talk about things you want to do with this character and what sort of backstory they have and what your attached to. Hard to talk about what to do or how a character looks with no idea what the goal is.

It's a bunch of themes I enjoy. I like divinely inspired characters but I always end up playing a healer so this time I was looking for a Gandalf/Keeper of the Light (Dota2) feel. I even had a Gandalf inside joke floating in my head in regards to the eagle not solving all my quests for me by flying halflings into volcanos.

Animal Companions and Wildshape are my 2 favorite RPG abilities ever but honestly they seem pretty complex in PF. This lets me try out the critter and keep the character pretty basic so not to slow down gameplay.

Barding: how much is the barding for a Roc?

Thanks to all who took the time to reply!

FAQ spoiler:
Can an Arcane Bonded Item be upgraded?

A character with the arcane bond class feature may create a bond with any item he owns, either magical or mundane, as long as the item falls within the categories permitted by the arcane bond ability (the cost for bonding with a new item still applies). If a caster later wishes to upgrade an existing bonded item, he may do so for the cost (not price) of the final item as listed in the item's statblock.

For items which can be enhanced incrementally (such as weapons or a ring of protection), the caster must meet all prerequisites for the item as outlined in the item crafting rules. For example, a nonmagical bonded dagger can be enchanted to a +1 dagger for 1,000 gp instead of the normal 2,000 gp, but the caster must be at least 5th level (a prerequisite for the Craft Magic Arms and Armor feat). To upgrade the item further to a +2 dagger, the caster must have a caster level of 6 or higher (three times the item's enhancement bonus).

A bonded item that is enhanced must still conform to all the campaign rules for access to and upgrading of magical items. The final and total price of the item (not the cost) is used on the Fame chart to determine whether a caster can apply such an enhancement to a bonded item.

Am I correct in reading:

1. To upgrade the MW dagger to +1 the caster must be at least 5th level - So you can't upgrade your dagger until level 5? That's a long time to wait for a + 1 weapon if I'm reading this right. +1 weapons are always available to PFS characters and even if that weren't true the Fame 13 cost requirement would be met by about lvl 3.

Also:
2. The upgrade discount. I see threads mentioning a 1 time "first-only" cost discount but I can't find anything anywhere that states this rule.

Thanks!
