I would love some help utilizing the Insinuator's ambitious bond for a outsider servant. If this ability is to actually function like the antipaladin's fiendish boon but with the restrictions that I can only summon an outsider that shares the alignment of the patron outsider I invoked that day, then by RAW is there nothing that I can summon if my invoked patron happens to be a devil during when i gain this ability at level 5? (it emulates summon monster 3 in this case to summon a lawful evil outsider).
Are there more generic guidelines I can present to my GM about summon monster that would include devils like imps for earlier progressions of summon monster?
Any help either with my understanding of this ability or how to generalize it so that it actually fills the versatile space it feels like it ought to would be greatly appreciated!
Insinuator archetype is from agents of evil, and antipaladins are in the advanced player's guide if anyone is looking for the sources.
You may summon a lemure as your devil associate, if need be. While the Fiendish Bond ability prohibits you from having more than one creature under your control, nothing actively prohibits you from summoning a lesser creature.
Yeah, you can always summon from the lower spell level summoning lists.
If Summon Monster 3 is lacking LE outsiders on the list, then your only legal option is to go down to Summon Monster 2 for a Lemure.
Personally, I would just strongly recommend against selecting the outsider servant and instead go with the weapon bond. Generally speaking it's much better.
Meh, much less fun. I'm mostly at the class for evil perma-summons.
Check with your GM about taking Summon Evil Monster to flesh out your options, or just using the expanded list.
