Sorc question

I have a 1st level sorcerer. I'm supposed to pick a bloodline, and am interested in Elemental Bloodline. However, the description lists SKILL: Knowledge (Planes), and this skill isn't a class skill, so do I have to put ranks into this skill to train it before selecting the Elemental bloodline, or is this skill automatically given upon selection of the bloodline?


it's not a prestige class, under "bloodlines" from general it says that bloodlines grant class-skills.

You get "Knowledge (Planes)" as a class-skill if you take elemental bloodline.

OK!

I have another question about stacking.

Empower Spell is a feat the scorc has. If I take on Heighten Spell, what happens? The Empower makes the level of spell 2 higher; with the Heighten, will this increase to 3 levels higher? Or just stay at 2?

Also, with Maximize Spell, if I have a CHA of 13, allowing only level 3 spells or higher, does this mean if i take on this feat I cannot cast 3rd level maximized spells?

These feats and the maximize spell feat you mention later makes them use up higher spell slots. For example, to cast an empowered magic missle (1st level spell) you would need to be able to cast 3rd level spells (which you can't do until 6th level), and would have to forgo casting a 3rd level spell to get off the empowered 1st level one. So those feats like that are useless to you for a while.

You having a 13 CHA means you can cast 3rd level spells when your level permits it. (have to be 6th level to cast them)

You having a 13 CHA means you can cast 3rd level spells when your level permits it. (have to be 6th level to cast them)

Also note that even if you can not cast spells of x level because your charisma is to low does not mean you do not get those spell slots. If you have a Charisma of 13 and are able to cast up to 3rd level spells, when you get 8th level and gain access to 4th level spell slots you can use those slots to cast lower level spells are metamagic versions of lower level spells.
