One of the major problems with the new Unchained Summoner is the relative lack of variation and content. For example, I can play with an eidolon of almost any type of outsider, but what if I want to play a summoner followed around by the revenant of his dead wife? What about the son of a mad fleshwarper accompanied by his grotesque bodyguard?
Eidolon Variant: Earthbound Eidolon
Unlike a standard eidolon, an earthbound eidolon is not an outsider but a creature originating on Golarion. It does not have the outsider type and does not need to have an alignment one step away from the summoner, though most do. An earthbound eidolon does not need to be summoned and cannot be dismissed like a standard eidolon, it is not affected by any effect that targets summoned creatures unless it also targets creatures of the eidolon's type. An earthbound eidolon begins each each day with the number of hit points it had at the end of the last day + it's master's summoner level or half of it's maximum hit points, whichever is larger. Unlike a standard eidolon, an earthbound eidolon can die and should this happen the summoner can return it to life as the effects of True Resurrection via a ritual that takes 24 hours to perform and 200 gp per summoner level. This modifies the Summoner's Eidolon ability.
