How will you develop this PC?

I meant to attend a 11th-level 4e short campaign in this November. And here is a 5th-level PC I played years ago. And thinking about leveling up this PC into 11th. Would you please give me some suggestions and ideas to level-up this PC into 11th? Say, which Paragon Path (or maybe Paragon Multiclassing) should he take. Some good or must-have feats for him, etc.

He is a son of a priest in a rather primitive tribe which warships Sehanine as the great spirit of moon. In his tribe, he worked as a priest of Sehanine and a leader of tribal warriors. He has strong tie with spirits since his child age and has a companion spirit which resembles a bird of prey.

He wears metal armor (Scale, at this level) and a shield. He uses a Javelin (with Distance power) for using various weapon powers. At this level, one of his strength is that he can use 3 healing powers in a same round, as he has 3 different "Healing" powers from 3 classes.

Edit: I want to avoid acting out of my turn. In my experience, having those kind of powers slow the game down much.

Change Healer's Lore to Battle Cleric's Lore - that gets you Scale Armor and +2 Shield bonus
Change Human's extra at-will to Heroic Effort - +4 to hit or save when you want it, encounter. It is awesome
You might want Paragon of Victory, a Cleric Paragon Path. Soul Igniter is a cool Shaman paragon path. Freedom Fighter is a great Warlord path, but has an off-action attack as its E11.
Power of Skill is a good feat to turn Righteous Brand into a melee basic attack
You might want to change your weapon into a Hungry Greatspear and spend a feat on that+get Spear Expertise in any case.
Improved Defenses, Superior Will, Improved Initiative, all good feats to look at.

Thank you for a lot of good suggestions.

While this feat is good, It is rather annoying for me to let a human PC worship Corellon (he is always the elven god for me) or rather-primitive character worshiping Ioun. Fortunately, the campaign involves inter-planar rifts and DM says a PC may come from other official world settings such as Farune, Eberron, and Dark Sun. Did deities of those world officially got domains in 4e?
