Scarab Sages

I am presently playing a Summoner in Organized Play. I hope the following questions don't sound too slimy, I just need clarification.

Do Eidolons receive Favored Class bonus independantly of their summoner? I know that, as a Gnome, I can opt to give my eidolon an extra hit point, but does my eidolon recieve its own extra hit or skill point when it gains Hit Dice in addition to that? I realize the answer to this question would almost certainly mean the same for familiars, companions, and mounts as well.

Eidolons get Craft as a class skill straight out of the box - in Organized Play, does that mean they can make their own Day Job rolls in addition to my own? Being serpentine, my eidolon couldn't do most Crafts, but I could see it doing some delightful sand art....


Eidolons do not receive a favored class bonus as they are considered to be part of the Summoner.

As for the craft skill question my guess would probably be a no. PFS restricts most ways of earning extra gold.

A creature only gets favored class bonuses for levels of a class that it takes. It doesn't get favored class bonuses for increases in racial hit dice. Animal companions and eidolons never get class levels and only advance by racial hit dice.
