You can delegate various actions and physical processes to the individual minds. Unfettered eidolon gains Two-Weapon Fighting as a bonus feat, regardless of whether or not you meet the prerequisite. Additionally, a unfettered eidolon qualifies to take Improved Two-Weapon Fighting and Greater Two-Weapon Fighting without meeting the Dexterity prerequisite, though you must qualify in all other ways to take these feats. It can also select two favored classes at first level and gain +1 hit point or +1 skill point whenever you take a level in either one of those classes. The telepathic tangle between its twin consciousnesses grants a +2 bonus on Will saving throws. If affected by an enchantment spell or effect and fails its saving throw, you can attempt it again 1 round later at the same DC; if it succeeds, you are free of the effect (as if you had made the original save). This trait replaces evasion.

Ability Score Modifiers: Unfettered eidolon have one of four base form: aquatic, biped, quadruped or serpentine. Each base form determines ability scores, speed, and other racial traits.
Unfettered Eidolon: Unfettered eidolon are outsiders with the extraplanar subtype. Unlike most living creatures, an outsider does not have a dual nature—its soul and body form one unit. When an outsider is slain, no soul is set loose. Spells that restore souls to their bodies, such as raise dead, reincarnate, and resurrection, don't work on an outsider.

Hive sense is blocked by 1 foot of stone, 1 inch of metal, a thin sheet of lead, or 3 feet of wood or dirt. A large gathering of formians (a dozen or more) can be sensed up to 1 mile away regardless of obstructions.
Biological Caste: Formians belong to a colony (society) and perform specialized functions predetermined by morphological distinctions. At character creation, choose Worker or Warrior caste, gaining the caste traits of the hive.

Quadruped: Formians possess four legs and two arms, granting them a +4 racial bonus to CMD against trip attempts. Formians are adversely affected by their ability to use standard feet slot magic items. The best way to deal with this is to create variant magic item versions of the various boots, shoes, and slippers that are approved by your GM.

Formians begin play speaking Common. Formians with high Intelligence scores can choose from the following: Draconic, Dwarven, Goblin, Terran, Thriae, and Undercommon.
Biological Caste
Warrior: Composing the fighting caste of the hive, they rank above the worker caste. Allowed independent initiative to better hone their battle skills, formian warriors have more latitude in following commands than many other formians. Owing to this latitude, formian warriors are more likely to chafe under hive strictures than workers and taskmasters. Formian warriors engrave their chitin with insignia depicting their rank and notable deeds.
○ +2 Strength, +2 Dexterity, -2 Charisma: Formian are swift and powerful but are inherently strange and unnerving.
○ Medium: Formian have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.

○ Acrobatic: Formian warriors gain Skill Focus (Acrobatics) feat as a bonus feat at 1st level.

The toxin that is injected is a paralytic venom. It can also be applied to a weapon as a swift action. The Fortitude save DC is 10 + ½ Hit Dice + Constitution modifier. The poison's frequency is 1/round for 6 rounds with an effect of 1d2 Dexterity damage and cure 1 save.
Worker: These lowest-caste formians stand a little taller than a large dog, and their small mandibles are better equipped for slicing leaves, cutting fruit from the vine, and carving into flesh. Regardless, Their iridescent chiti is nearly featureless, marked only by small scarring as they age and a series of markings on their chest. A few more accomplished formian workers bear small gems proudly glued to their carapace, tokens granted them by taskmasters for particularly impressive accomplishments. The backbone of the hive receive the following traits:
○ +2 Strength, +2 Constitution, -2 Charisma: Formian are hardy and powerful but are inherently strange and unnerving.
○ Small: Formian gain a +1 size bonus to their AC, a +1 size bonus on attack rolls, a –1 penalty on combat maneuver checks and to their CMD, and a +4 size bonus on Stealth checks.
○ Bite: Formian gain a natural bite attack, dealing 1d3 damage.The bite is a primary attack, or a secondary attack if the creature is wielding manufactured weapons.
○ Miner: Formian workers gain Skill Focus (Profession - Miner) feat as a bonus feat at 1st level.
○ Burrow: Formain gain a burrow speed of 20 feet.
Note ♦ Pheromone Communication
The natural language of formians relies on a series of chemical excretions detected by scent, rather than sound. When a formian is in another formian’s presence, this communication is every bit as complex and detailed as spoken language. However, unlike spoken language, pheromone communication lingers in the air for several hours afterward, allowing someone to ‘listen in’ on a conversation for which they were not present or allowing a formian to leave messages for others of his kind. Unfortunately, the details of such communication fade quickly. Those not present when the pheromones are first created can only pick up very general details such as the presence of danger, food, enemies and the like. A general sense of direction or distance also lingers, allowing pheromones to be used to leave directions to other formians. The general emotional tone of the conversation can also be gleaned from lingering pheromones. Pheromones continue to linger in an area for up to a week. Heavy rain can wash them away in a matter of hours. Scouring the area with other strong odors in an effort to kill the scent will ruin lingering pheromones. A creature capable of pheromone communication can also use its own pheromones to ‘overwrite’ a lingering message, destroying it instantly.
Alternate Racial Traits
Builder (Worker Only): Formians with this racial trait can excrete a pliable resin that quickly hardens into a sturdy material. While not suitable for weapons or armor, this resin is relatively functional. It can be used as a crude building material or to create simple containers. A formian can produce up to one cubic foot of resin per character level per day. Excreting one cubic foot of resin requires a full round action. The resin remains flexible and sticky for one minute. At the end of this time, it permanently hardens. Hardened resin has 3 hardness and 8 hit points per inch of thickness. This trait replaces natural armor.
Disgraced (Warrior Only): Formians warriors who have fallen from their position and ranking become disgraced warriors, their markings gouged out and stinger torn away. Despite this you carry on in the face of fear and despair. As such, you gain a +2 racial bonus on saving throws against fear and despair effects. Also, once per day, after a natural roll of 1 on a d20 roll, you may reroll and use the second result. This racial build replaces the stinger trait.

Peerless Bearer (Worker Only): Some standout formian workers are able to bear remarkable burdens for their size. They have a +5 racial bonus to Strength when calculating the effects of encumbrance. This ability replaces natural armor.
Severed: Inadvertently the queen passed on the quality of her intelligence and free will to a number of formians that promptly fled the hive rather than being slain. These independent formians, known as exiles, severed their connections to their kind completely and embraced the ways of other mortal races. Formians with this trait gain +2 Dexterity, +2 Wisdom, -2 Charisma instead of their normal ability score modifiers. They also gain a +2 racial bonus to all Diplomacy and Sense Motive skill checks. These traits replace hive sense and pheromonal communication.
Taskmaster (Warrior Only): Exceptional formian of a higher caste operate outside the hive as merchants, traders, diplomats, and spies, and particularly talented taskmasters may even advise the queen. With a stronger connection to the hive, taskmasters are not strong of mind. Formians with this trait gain +2 Strength, -2 Intelligence, +2 Charisma instead of their normal ability score modifiers. Add +1 to the DC of any enchantment spells they cast. Formians with a Charisma score of 11 or higher also gain the following spell-like abilities: 1/day—charm person, detect thoughts, sending (to the hive queen only), suggestion. The DC for the spells is equal to 10 + the spell’s level + the caster’s Charisma modifier. These traits replace the bonus skill feat.

“Highly spiritual creatures and keepers of the world's greatest secrets, the thriae are a race of female, beelike seers coveted for their powers of divination and prophecy. Roughly humanoid in size and appearance, thriae keep to the outskirts of civilization, tending to their mysterious rituals and maintaining a watchful—if passive—eye over the machinations of nearby societies. While possessing an eerie air of mysticism, thriae are nonetheless startlingly beautiful, their slender bodies giving an unexpected grace to the otherwise unsightly mannerisms of giant bees.”

Anticoagulant Gel
Crafted from the saliva of vampire bats, the saliva has a protein that acts as an anticoagulant, this pungent rust-brown gel coats 1 medium weapon, 2 small weapons, or 20 pieces of ammunition per dose. Sabosan use this gel to further wear down their opponents and kill them that much quicker. When a weapon coated in the gel deals damage, it also inflicts bleed damage as well (1d4 for medium weapons, 1d3 for small weapons, 1 point for ammunition). Medium and small weapons lose the gel's effects after 3 such hits, while ammunition only benefits once from the gel.

Physical Description
Dogfolk resemble that of a dog, body covered in fur, along with a tail. Dogfolk have some variation in fur patterns, but they tend to resemble long-muzzles and perky-ears. Pitbull or Cane Corso breeds dwell in Cheliax. Hound breeds are present in Ustalav and further north in Ulfen territory, such as Wolfhounds. Pinschers in Taldan, German Shepherds and Labradors in Absalom. Siberian Husky breeds can be seen around Irrisen and the High Ice. African Wild Dogs are prevalent in Garund. Even Chow Chows in Tian Xia.
Society
Most dogfolk dwell among nomadic packs, natural explorers who rarely tire of trailblazing, though some packs have acclimated well to urban environments. As a culture, dogfolk are predatorial toward suspicious outsiders, yet they exude loyalty and generosity. They like belonging to a group whose members work together to accomplish great deeds and enriching rewards. Most individual dogfolk enjoy attention, and they tend to be expressive in body language in dog-like ways, wagging of the tail, position of the ears, and growling when angry.
Relations
Adaptable and curious, dogfolk get along with almost any race that extends reciprocal goodwill. They can prolong an grudging acclimation to other races upon instinctual or wary predation. Dogfolk and elves share a passionate nature. Humans make natural companions for dogfolk. The feral nature of gnolls stirs revulsion among dogfolk, as they don’t understand savagery and propensity for wanton destruction. Dogfolk are quick to anger by catfolk, as they disdain playful deception and sultry innuendo. Many assert this resentment in accordance with an old tale about extending the first friendship to one catfolk, only to be swiped across the eye, asserting this is the reasoning behind not being able to distinguish some colors.
Alignment and Religion
With community and good-natured at the center of their culture, as well as a willingness to adapt to the customs of many other races, most dogfolk tend toward good alignments. The gods Erastil and Sarenrae speak to the souls of dogfolk, and many packs depict them as dogfolk themselves.
Adventurers
Natural born trackers, the huntergatherer aspect of their packs pushes many dogfolk toward occupations as rangers and druids.While some dogfolk paladins and inquisitors are a common sight due to their mindset of steadfast dedication to a cause. Their impact upon Golarion is far spread and very diverse. Some Dogfolk are guardians for Osirian temples and Katapesh nobles. Others operate under an exclusive and secretive pack or order for the Hellknights. While others are exemplified for their bravery and unflinching resolve deep within the Worldwound.

Has anyone ever had to fight their duplicate self, such as Evil Twin? Any suggestions for running that against the party? Considering an event on the Shadow Plane.

Claws: Kappa receive two claw attacks. These are primary natural attacks that deal 1d3 damage.
Energy Resistance: Kappa have ties to the plane of earth and water. Therefore they have resistances of 5 acid and 5 cold.
Head Bowl (Su): The basin atop a kappa’s head contains water from its home river or lake. The water is emptied only if the kappa willingly tips its head or a creature pinning the kappa forces it to do so (requiring a grapple check while pinned). If the water is emptied, the kappa becomes immobile and staggered. It can still take actions, but it cannot move from the spot on its own.
If the emptied head bowl is refilled with water, the kappa recovers from this condition immediately. This replacement water doesn’t have to be from the kappa’s home, but the kappa refills its head bowl from there at its first opportunity.
Hide in Shell: As a move action a Kappa may retract their extremities into their shell. This allows them to gain DR/5 Bludgeoning. It also allows for 50% concealment from ranged attacks. When they use this ability they immediately fall prone, drop anything they were holding, and any item that isn't directly attached to their skin. While they are in this form they cannot make attacks, use items, or cast spells (unless they are verbal). They must remain in this form for at least one complete round. To come out of their shell they must spend another move action (this does not provoke AoO).
Unusual Body Type: Armor cost Kappas an additional amount due to their unusual body type. 25% more for Light Armor, 50% more for Medium Armor, 75% more for Heavy Armor.

Kappa can hold their breath for a number of rounds equal to four times their Constitution score before risking drowning or suffocation.
Notes: Kappa Total RP = 16; Bite (1 RP) + Armor Spike (1 RP) + Hold Breath (1 RP) - Amphibious (2 RP)
Desert Strider (5 RP): Some Kappa derive from the tortoise and receive a +4 racial bonus on Constitution checks and Fortitude saves to avoid fatigue and exhaustion, as well as any other ill effects from running, forced marches, starvation, thirst, and hot or cold environments.This racial trait replaces Swim and Amphibious but they gain the ability to burrow with a speed of 20 feet.
Notes: Kappa Total RP = 14; Desert Runner (2 RP) + Burrow (3 RP) - Swim (3 RP) - Powerful Swimmer (1 RP) - Amphibious (2 RP)
Grimlock +2 Strength, -2 Wisdom, –4 Charisma: Grimlocks are strong, but destructive and unnerving.
Medium: Grimlocks are medium creatures and have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Axe Bearer: Grimlocks are proficient with the Battleaxe, Great Axe, Handaxe, and Pickaxe.
Blindsight : Grimlocks possess the extraordinary ability to use a combination of non-visual senses to operate effectively without vision. Such senses include acute scent and keen hearing. This makes invisibility and concealment irrelevant to Grimlocks (though they can't see ethereal creatures). This ability operates out to a range of 40 feet. Grimlocks are not able to read, distinguish color or visual contrast. Blinding attacks do not penalize them. Deafening attacks thwart blindsight since they rely on hearing yet Grimlocks function as though they have the Blind-Fight Feat whenever hearing and/or smell are negated. Blindsight works underwater but not in a vacuum. Blindsight negates displacement and blur effects.
Blind: Grimlocks cannot see. The most startling feature is that Grimlocks have the absence of eyes and eye sockets. They are immune to gaze attacks and visual effects. All checks and activities that rely on vision (such as reading and Perception checks based on sight) automatically fail. All opponents are considered to have total concealment (50% miss chance) if they fall outside of the Grimlocks range of Blindsight.
Camouflage: Grimlocks gain a +4 racial bonus on Stealth checks while Underground or among Mountains.
Perceiving: Grimlocks gain a +2 racial bonus on Perception checks.
Scaled and Scarred: Grimlocks gain a +2 natural armor bonus to their Armor Class.
Scent: Grimlocks are able to detect approaching enemies, sniff out hidden foes, and track by sense of smell. They can identify familiar odors just as humans do familiar sights. Grimlocks can detect opponents within 30 feet by sense of smell. If the opponent is upwind, the range increases to 60 feet; if downwind, it drops to 15 feet. Strong scents, such as smoke or rotting garbage, can be detected at twice the ranges noted above. Overpowering scents, such as skunk musk or troglodyte stench, can be detected at triple normal range. When a Grimlock detects a scent, the exact location of the source is not revealed—only its presence somewhere within range. A Grimlock can take a move action to note the direction of the scent. When you are within 5 feet of the source, you can pinpoint the source’s location. Grimlocks can follow tracks by smell, making a Wisdom (or Survival) check to find or follow a track. The typical DC for a fresh trail is 10 (no matter what kind of surface holds the scent). This DC increases or decreases depending on how strong the quarry’s odor is, the number of creatures, and the age of the trail. For each hour that the trail is cold, the DC increases by 2. The ability otherwise follows the rules for the Survival skill. Grimlocks tracking by scent ignore the effects of surface conditions and poor visibility.
Languages: Grimlocks begin play speaking Grimlock and Undercommon. Grimlocks with a high Intelligence scores can choose from the following: Abyssal, Aklo, Azlanti, Common, Dwarven, Elven, and Shadow tongue. -Grimfolk tongue: A mix of Aklo, Azlanti, and Undercommon.
Minotaurs Racial Traits
+2 Constitution, +2 Intelligence, -2 Charisma: Minotaurs are physically tough with innate cunning, and stereotypical attitudes.
Medium: Minotaurs are Medium creatures and have no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
Normal Speed: Minotaurs have a base speed of 30 feet.
Darkvision: Minotaurs can see in the dark up to 60 feet.
Tough Hide: Minotaurs have tough hides which provides a +1 natural armor bonus.
Gore: Minotaurs may gore with their horns as a primary natural attack, inflicting 1d6 damage + strength bonus.
Powerful Charge: When a Minotaur charges, it deals twice the number of damage dice with its gore attack, plus 1-1/2 times its strength bonus.
Natural Cunning: Minotaurs are immune to magical confusion, including daze and the maze spell which prevents them from ever becoming lost.
Languages: Minotaurs begin play speaking Common and Giant. Minotaurs with high Intelligence can choose any of the following languages: Draconic, Dwarven, Gnoll, Goblin, and Orc.
Alternate Race Creation GM Rules:
Large Size: (7 RP) Due to their size, Minotaurs gain a +2 size bonus to Strength and a -2 size penalty to Dexterity. Minotaurs also take a -1 size penalty to their AC, a -1 size penalty on attack rolls, a +1 bonus on combat maneuver checks to their CMD, and a -4 size penalty on Stealth checks. Minotaurs take up a space that is 10 feet by 10 feet and gains a reach of 10 feet. Gore is now increased to 1d8 damage based on Large size.
Powerful Build: (4 RP) The physical stature of Minotaurs lets them function in many ways as if they were one size category larger. Whenever a Minotaur is subject to a size modifier for an opposed check (such as during grapple check, bull rush attempts, and trip attempts), Minotaurs are treated as on size category larger if doing so is advantageous. Minotaurs are also considered to be one size larger when determining where a creature's special attacks based on size (such as grab or swallow whole) can affect him. Minotaurs can use weapons designed for a creature one size larger without penalty. However his space and reach remain those of a creature of his actual size. The benefits of the racial trait stack with the effects of powers, abilities, and spells that change the subject's size category.
I'm making a few evolved Azlanti themed races for a Darklands setting. Similar to races presented in the Forgotten Realms Underdark source material.

Dark Folk +2 Dexterity, +2 Constitution, –2 Charisma: Dark folk are quick and forceful, but tend to be set in their ways and slow to accept new ideas and innovations.
Small: Dark folk are Small creatures, and gain a +1 size bonus to their AC, a +1 size bonus on attack rolls, a –1 penalty on combat maneuver checks and to their CMD, and a +4 size bonus on Stealth checks.
Normal Speed: Dark folk have a base speed of 30 feet.
See in Darkness: Dark folk can see perfectly in darkness of any kind, including that created by spells such as deeper darkness.
Dark Folk Magic: Dark Folk can use Detect Magic as a constant spell-like ability. Dark folk can cast Darkness as a spell-like ability once per day. The caster level of the spells is equal to the user’s character level.
Light Blindness: Abrupt exposure to bright light blinds dark folk for 1 round; on subsequent rounds, they are dazzled as long as they remain in the affected area.
Underground Sneak: Dark folk gain a +2 racial bonus on Craft (Alchemy), Perception, and Stealth checks.This bonus increases to a +4 bonus while underground.
Poison Use: Dark Folk are skilled with poison and never risk accidentally poisoning themselves when applying it to weapons.
Death Throes: When a dark folk is slain, it's body erupts in a release of energy, it's gear and treasure are unaffected by this effect.
Languages: Dark folk begin play speaking Dark folk and Undercommon. Dark folk with a high Intelligence scores can choose from the following: Abyssal, Aklo, Azlanti, Common, Dwarven, Elven, and Shadow tongue. -Dark folk tongue: A mix of Aklo, Azlanti, and Undercommon.
Alternate Racial Traits Medium: Some Dark Folk are taller than their kin. This racial trait replaces small.
Soul Harvest (Su): When a dark folk damages a flat-footed foe or a foe it is flanking with a melee touch spell or spell-like ability that deals hit point damage, the spell does an additional 1d6 points of damage and the dark folk gains an equal amount of temporary hit points. These temporary hit points last for a maximum of 1 hour. This racial trait replaces Dark Folk Magic.
You should be fine. I have seen people add 1d6 every odd level and +1 every even level. I had the PCs use the NPCs alongside caravan combat. Caravan fights caravan monster stat, while NPCs fight caravan monster but using the bestiary stats. Caravan combat ends when the NPCs win or caravan wins, whichever comes first.
I have the party level up the npcs usually staying within the character concept and theme. That stops any grumbling that the PCs are babysitting the caravan and NPCs. Then you save yourself from leveling NPCs for a specific scenario or side quests.
If the party defeated Akinosa already. This could be a good option.
Spirit of Akinosa:
Akinosa, The Ever-Seeking Dreamer CR 11
XP 12,800
NE male aranea spirit
Notice Perception DC 25 (the smell of intoxicating flowers and clicking mandibles)
hp 65
Will Save DC 22
Ongoing Effect
You desire a drug induced torpor. Seeking unawareness of reality and dream, if opium is not available then you search for the indulgence of any alcohol to dull your senses. What better than to forcibly take the endless supply of sake provided by the flask. During this period, you take on an interesting trait and skill set of Araneas.
Bane
Just like drugs, alcohol can be abused and have significant negative effects. In general, you can consume a number of alcoholic beverages equal to 1 plus double your Constitution modifier before being sickened for 1 hour equal to the number of drinks above the maximum. When resolved to drink from the flask of sake upon the first time, make a Fortitude save DC 20 to avoid becoming addicted. You must drink sake every day, or refuse any potion and non-alcoholic drink offered to you.
If or when opium first becomes available, make a Fortitude save DC 20 to avoid becoming addicted. Like Akinosa, you crave opium, a highly addictive drug. While under the effects of opium, you gain +1d8 temporary hit points and a +2 alchemical bonus on Fortitude saves for 1 hour, but you are also fatigued during that time, and take 1d4 points of Constitution damage and 1d4 points of Wisdom damage. You must inhale opium every day, or take a –2 penalty to Dexterity, Constitution, Strength, and Wisdom scores and be unable to heal ability damage caused by the drug until you take another dose.
Rules for drugs and addiction can be found on pages 236–237 of the GameMastery Guide.
Boon
Spinnerets (Ex): As a swift action, you can extrude 20-foot strands of organic cable from the pulse points in your wrists. You may extrude three cables per day. The strands are sticky, and can be used to make a ranged touch attack against a target, giving it the entangled condition for 1 minute per every 2 character levels you possess, on a failed Reflex save, DC 10 + ½ your character level. The stands may also be used as rope, and dissolve after 24 hours. You may also use your spinneret strands as retractable cables, effectively lifting you from the ground to an anchor up to 20 feet, or like a swinging rope to cross obstacles.
Spinneret Tactics
You remember the tactics the Araneas used against you within The House of Withered Blossoms, and turn those same maneuvers upon your enemies. Performing any of these requires the use of one free hand during any spinneret maneuver.
Web-Slinging: This favored tactic involves creating a web and then using that web as a swinging rope to fight from. Generally speaking, you are considered to be on higher ground for these attacks (+1 on melee attacks). To use this tactic, you must first throw a web to a nearby fixed point (usually a ceiling or beam, both of which are generally Large, with an AC of 9).
Angry Falling Leaves: In this attack, you use a web to break your fall and suddenly drop up to 20 feet downward into combat, treating yourself as a falling object, crashing into an opponent from above. This attack requires a melee touch attack, and deals 2d6 points of damage. You receive 1d6 points of damage if this attack is successful.
Attack of the Lotus Whirlwind: In this attack, put yourself into a spin as you descend from your web. If you descend 20 feet using this attack, the descent counts as a charge.
Graceful Descent of the Flying Blade: You can swing up to the web’s length (moving up to your speed) and make a single melee attack action without provoking an attack of opportunity, similar to the Spring Attack Feat. Doing so requires an Acrobatics check with a DC equal to the opponent’s CMD. You then release the web and drop to the ground.
Dismissal
Remove Disease dismisses Akinosa.
The unpleasant crave does not continue even after Akinosa is dismissed. Should you take a dose of opium or alcohol you became addicted to, you immediately relapse, causing the addiction DC to instantly return.

If you are familiar with Radovan and Jeggare from the many Pathfinder Novels detailing their adventures, particularly Master of Devils, how would you build the Shadowless Sword?
I'm thinking temple sword and true seeing ability. Any suggestions?
