2. Each creature sourcebook details how each creature type follows their Gods. The example you've given is pretty extreme and would to my mind constitute someone trying to be a bit "special". Anyone choosing "Primane" will receive the Primane sourcebook and where there are living background interactions with other creatures, this will be outlined, along with any other options they have in terms of faith.

1)      Is Dress Wounds a pre-requisite for Basic Healing? It doesn't appear to be.

2)      Can a character use Dress Wounds whilst another character is using Basic Healing:

a)      On the same location?

b)      On a different location? 

3)      With the Druid spell “Imbue Life” can unconscious characters/monsters resist the effect?

2. Yes.

3. No you can't resist something if you are unconscious.

Dude!  You're totally reading my mind here!

I have a very strong feeling that I'm going to last approximately 5 minutes into time in.    Best bring more kit.  This feeling is intensified by the knowledge that you can pretty much permanently coup de grace spell users in under 5 seconds.

Another question:

A pole arm definitely counts as a melée weapon, right?  So you don't need a lammy or a skill to use it?

*shrugs* A short blunt stick and you can do anyone over, plus it'll be a fair while before they regain their will. In the meantime you can turn them into a magical experiment if you want to.

Moral of the story is, bring friends, and be clever.  

Yep polearm is a melee weapon like all other melee weapon categories. Only exceptions are those covered by Bow Use and Claw Weapon types.
