Promethean Alchemists' Homonculi - Magic Item Slots?


Pathfinder Society

Liberty's Edge 1/5

Hi everyone! I see that Promethean Alchemists are surprisingly legal in PFS. Their companions are a bit unusual, so I wanted to know how item slot rules work for Homonculi in Society. For example, Animal Companions get restricted slots, and Eidolons take slots from their Summoner. I'm not sure how Phantoms work, but I imagine it's the same sort of thing. However, I can't find any rules about Prometheans' Homonculi.

I did a forum search using Paizo's own search tool, as well as Google's. Couldn't really find anything. Any help is appreciated!

At the moment, best guess is to use same rules as animal companion, altough I think you could safely say that homonculus companion can also use Ioun stones, as it has rather high Int. Maybe homonculus could also use wands like alchemist.

Thank you Streamwalker! I'm guessing Amulet of Mighty Fists and 0 ACP armor might be the safest choices in terms of legality. But not necessarily, which is the confusing part. I'm hoping we can get clarification or at least have access to Extra Item Slot. I've never seen anyone play a Promethean Alchemist before. I know it's a big corner case, but the number of item slots they get has huge repercussions.

Rules as written oddly enough that would put the Homonculus in the can wield all magic items category. Normally I wouldn't put appearance as a mechanical effect but given that other archetypes actually call out the appearance as looking completely different (ie. cat) its probably on purpose.
