Let's start with the concept. I've grown to like the Angelic Sorceror scheme, since divine spells might come in handy. The acolyte background sounds appropriate - really lean into the "holy blood" self-image. And let's be human, for ease of use.
So, humans get two free ability boosts, acolyte gets Wisdom/Con and one free, four free for being a player character, and a Charisma boost from sorcerer. That makes for something like:
S 10, D 14, C 12, I 10, W 14, Ch 18
I've also got 8 hp, plus 1 for Con mod, plus 6 for class. 15.
Feats! Ancestry I'll take Skilled for extra versatility, Student of the Canon from background.
I'll do more later. Am I on the right track?

Ok, nice. This is the first time GMing this as well, so I will miss stuff as well or make mistakes.

So I'm trained in Reflex and Fortitude, expert in Will, so my saving throws are respectable.
Let's talk skills. I'm already trained in Perception, so that's cool. I get 5, plus 2 for Skilled since I'm at Int 10 (we are not a party of brainiacs). Let's do Crafting, Diplomacy, Lore twice, Medicine, Religion, Society. I also get free training in the Lore of one deity from the Acolyte background. I'll pick Shelyn, which gives me a good God without the compulsion to fight evil forever. Since Shelyn is a goddess of beauty, I'll take Art History as one Lore, with the other being Planes for interest in the character's heritage.
More to come!

I'm still interested, sorry haven't been active in helping this. Good for a learn to play game or something too, so with a Pre Gen I'm happy to try it

We'll just wait for JW to complete his char, then we begin. As I understand it, you will be using the pregen fighter, V.
