hee, no...I was too busy blowing all my spell slots on Shield and Magic Missile.
Oh man, this is so much nicer.
Also, what do you want to do about that 'healing' spell she took. The one where she converts damage to nonlethal damage?
Again, I don't think you ever used it so you can change it if you like, or keep it (since otherwise only Growling Ape has healing). No biggie to convert it.

I send you a PM regarding the spell. And all 'cure' spells channel positive energy. See the spell description of CLW:Well, comparing it to the other 8th level Clerical powers in PF, no, I'd say rounds, although checking again I think a number equal to level (they don't have to be consecutive).
Sounds a bit betterit's powerlevel also directly relates to the number of incorporeal foes you are sending after us
I think so, if you give me the details. Although, the PF druid doesn't "channel positive energy" anyway, if you mean like the cleric.
underlined by me.
BTW, I prefer this site for my Pathfinder online needs:
Pathfinder SRD (Pathfinder_OGC)

Spell looks good to me, and that's a much better PF SRD website, thanks.
As for the "channel positive energy" for cure spells, I think that can be considered more fluff than actual rules - I see Ape as not so much a druid in the "sickles and mistletoe" sense, more a magician who works with the natural world (and the Druid class is the closest we can come to model this). So his cure spells could channel the fertility of the earth, or the power of nature, or some such effect. I don't think of Conclave as having planes of positive and negative energy like the Great Wheel cosmology.

It is considered crunch in the way it damages negative energy creatures = undead. But the power of nature abhorring undead is a good explanation as that.
Seconding Shay's question and voting for keeping the attributes as they are, including ignoring the racial ability bonuses from Pathfinder.

Notes on Pathfinder-izing the other characters:
Shakou - rogue hit dice is now d8, so these can be re-rolled (keep highest of old and new values). Skills need to be reconfigured in line with PF ones (you'll get more, essentially), and you have at least on rogue ability, two if you take 4th level rogue.
Mystal Mar - no change to class (although hit dice now depends on BAB - d6 for half, d8 for 3/4 and d10 for full progression). Skills need to be re-jigged. Since Spellcraft now includes Concentration, I'm willing to allow Martial Lore to include Concentration in the same fashion.
Three Flowers - some changes to smite and lay on hands abilities, largely for the better, otherwise no change (check skills, but I don't think any of yours are affected).
Also, don't forget to calculate Combat Maneuvre Bonus (BAB+Str modifier) and Combat Maneuvre Defence (10+BAB+Str modifer +Dex modifier).

I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
There are maneuvers that replace str with dex for tripping (Mighty Throw or clever positioning and some other(s)) and give +4 to the check (essentially size increase)
Should I just note it with maneuver? Or you'd prefer to ban it? To lower bonus to +2 to be more inline with improved trip?
Do you have Tome of Battle?

Swapping attributes is no problem - there are even some feats that do this (Agile Maneuvres, for example). As for the bonus, we may have to examine those on a case by case basis. The Improved Trip etc. feats in PF have a decreased bonus, but they also provide a bonus to defence against such attacks, so we could probably choose between the 3.5 version (+4 , no defence) vs. PF (+2 attack, +2 defence) depending on how the maneuvre is described. I have got ToB, yes.
