Hello all, I would like to make a wayang shadow puppeteer and I have a few questions; primarily about how to improve the Shadow Puppets ability.
1) Can I use Spell Focus (Illusion), Shadow Magic trait and Ability Focus to improve the DC of Shadow Puppets?
2) Can I use feats like Augment Summons and Summon Good Creature on the Shadow Puppet ability, to summon new creatures and improve them?
3) If I have feats or traits that increase the caster level of illusion spells or the Shadow Conjuration spell, would that allow Shadow Puppets to act as a higher level version of Summon Monster? For example, for a 3rd level Shadow Puppeteer with Mage's Tattoo (Illusion), would he be able to use Shadow Puppets as a 4th level caster and create monsters from the Summon Monster II list, instead of from the I list?
4) If I summoned a creature with the ability to use spell-like abilities, e.g. CLW, would it be able to use them?
5) Since I create the monsters with the Shadow Puppets ability, do I have control over what they do, or do I have communicate with them, if possible, as in the Summon Monster spell?
Thanks in advance!
