Hello!

I'm starting the Shacked City Campaign.
I'm already lvl 4. I'm doing a Cleric that will turn to a Malconvoker.

I'm NOT fun of cheesy builds, therefore my domains are not the best, but they really fit with my character. Basically is a guy that seeks power through his God but he doesn't care much really about helping others.
I'm a NG char. I use the power provided by my God to do what I want. Not evil things, just selfish ones maybe.

So, I'll let you know my stats:

STR 8 DEX 8 CON 14 INT 14 WIS 18 CHAR 12

Skills: Planes, Arcane, Religion, Spellcraft, Concentration, Bluff (of course), Swim (free from campaign 4 ranks)
Languages: Common, Infernal, Celestial (so far).
Got around 21 Skill Points not assigned yet, probably will be used for languages.

Feats: Spell Focus (Conjuration) -  Scribe Scroll

On the Scribe Scroll: Our party is a Halfing Rogue Ranged future Master Thrower, a Barbarian and a Paladin. We used to have a Sorcerer but quitted, so far being played as an NCP by us and maybe we'll get another player (but not sure).
Even if I'm not supposed to cover so many roles, I'm basically the Healer and Crowd Controller of the party. Since I'll need the most flexibility I can get, that's why I got Scribe Scroll, I can always re train it later (my DM is flexible with some rules).

Domains: I got Magic and Trickery. Basically free identify (I cast them as Divine Spells, don't need Material Focus). I'm follower of Boccob, that's why I got those Domains. Which I actually enjoy and I think go well with my char.

Later on I'm gonna need: Augment Summoning.

Do I REALLY need to cast spells in 1 standard action? Is there any rod of rapid spell? Should I bump CHA in any ways? Not sure about that one.

I'm consufed if whether I should take all the levels of the Malconvoker or dip into something else.

I'm not the best optimizer, but I don't like cheesy builds. Even If I'd like to take DMM, I'm thinking maybe it'll be better to take it with Twin Spell or some Reserve Feat, like Repeat Spell, which I find it more convenient.
