I'm ashamed to say I don't seem to remember these rolls, but I thought I should ask now and try to learn the dynamics rather than always using the character generators.

So to work out HP, we roll 5 d6. The first is a 6 automatically, and we keep the two other highest dice.

So I would of had...6, 4, 3 = 13 HP

How many do we roll if we are working out our starting stats, if we want to try it that way rather than the 28/32 point buy system?

I also found psionic classes in Psionics Unleashed, made by Paizo themselves.

Psionics Unleashed is Pathfinder compatible, but it was designed, written, and published by Dreamscarred Press, a third party publisher. I actually did some of the art for the Psionics Unleashed book.

Paizo, for their part, seem to either not give a damn about psionics, or hate it enough that if and when they do write it, they'll likely create an entirely new ruleset for it, likely based off Vancian spellcasting.

5 of your HD, the sixth is maxed out.

4d6, drop lowest result, there's your ability score before adding the racial ability adjustments.

And is our HD always a d6? Or can that change, in which case, what about it can change.

So that would mean I have.

5, 16, 15, 13, 11, 9 before any other modifiers to designate to S/D/C/I/W/C.

And my HP would be 20? (1,4,3,3,3 + 6)

That should fit in with the Cleric I'm hoping to write up.

HD is based on class. As a sorcerer, my HD is d6, but yours may be different

@ECannon , what is standard gold for level 6 anyway? n/m found it

I'm just going for a basic Cleric. Does it tell us in the Players Handbooks?

A quick online search says Clerics have 5 HD. Is that right?

No... HD for clerics are D8. Don't trust google too much it's safer to ask us.

You have one HD per level, clerics use d8 for HD  
BegrudginglyGood rolled 5 8-sided dice: 4, 3, 3, 5, 2 Total: 17 (5-40)

You failed me Google...curses.

Thanks for the help. So for a Lv 6 Cleric I would roll 5d8, since the sixth would automatically be an 8.

Right, lets see if that works.

25!

As a heads-up, we will need people who aren't just magic-users in this campaign. Fighters and the other good BAB classes have undergone serious upgrades. Is there anyone who'd be willing to play one of those?

Well, darn. Wish you'd have told me you liked playing those, I'd have been able to set you up with the SRD and everything for them.

I don't mind playing one this time too. Might help me get better if I practice the same rolls/tactics across a few threads.

Hook me up!
