Yay!

Since you've shared so much with us so far, what are the Bard and Ranger's races?

I definitely agree on making sure the Bishop's initiative is good. Both Speed and Senses contribute to that. My default Bishop plan is INT/SPD, then SEN/PIE, which gives pretty good initiative and fairly early Snakespeed for even more initiative. You'll max INT much sooner than SPD, so switch to SPD/SEN after INT maxes and your Bishop will be extremely fast.

I'd head straight for Arnika myself after the Monastery, especially if it's been a long while since you've played the game, but the method discussed of sneaking up to the Umpani Base Camp first can save some time in the long run. If you want anyone in your party to focus on Firearms as their ranged weapon, you definitely want to get to the Umpani Base Camp ASAP. But my two cents is that Arnika has more stuff that is useful to a new party.
