No problem - christmas to new year is usually busy (for me as well)

I started working on leveling up Vadania, and found some entries that look wrong.

He HP is shown as 60, I've been using average HP (I tend to roll badly on HP rolls), and I can't figure out where I got 60. If I'm doing average HP right, it should be 8 + 4 + 5 +4 +5 + 4 + 8 + 5 +2*8 = 59 I'm guessing I made a mistake at some point.

Her saving throws seem to be off.
Fort is +11 but I calculate +10
Ref is +7 but I calculate +5
Will is +12 but I calculate +10
Am I missing some bonuses from magic items? Or did I just make a mistake somewhere in the past?

She's finally going to get up to +6 BAB, I think that allows her to have a second attack regardless that they are coming from different classes. Is this correct?

I would not be surprised to find that you had gained a bonus hitpoint somewhere along the lines.
High averages - right number wrong method. Vadania would have 8 from her first level and 5 from each of the next 7, plus 16 from CON. =59 (plus 1 from somewhere)

Her base saves would be +7, +1, +7.
After stat adjustments +9, +5, +10
Vest of resistance +1 = +10, +6, +11 -I am guessing your current numbers were adding +2 here by mistake, mixing up the capes deflection bonus with a cloak of resistance.

Doesn't matter where you get the BAB from - as soon as you hit +6 from any combination you get the extra attack.

I like the 5 per level, that's much easier than keeping track of alternating 4 and 5. Also the stormlord granted the full 8 HP for the first level (mentioned above in this thread). So using that her current HP should be 8*2 + 5*6 + 2*8 = 62
Next level witll add 5+2 to get up to 69 HP :-)

I had missed the Vest of Resistance, but the numbers were just off. So I'll fix them.

Ah yes, the thematic classes were a special case for hitpoints.
