So, I've decided to sell my soul and the ruler of Hell granted me an Imp. I hope it was a good deal and a quick look at my options seems promising:
"An imp with this ability may choose one additional Tiny, Small, or Medium animal form as if using beast shape II"
Now, beast shape II says tiny or large creature, while beast shape II has the medium option (that was used for the spider in the base statistic box). Do I get beast shape II with medium animals, or I pick a tiny or large animal, or do I use beast shape III to actually pick a medium magical beast like the spider?
Aside from that question, witch animal would you choose, and why? I know the best use of my Imp friend would be a Wand wielder, but I think that might be a bit to much optimizing for my group. If it matters, the master of the Imp is a Evoker Wizard witch the crossblooded dip for the additional damage, I also want to summon later on.
Beast shape II includes beast shape I options, so you got a tiny, small, or medium animal to choose from.
As for the animal form: use what you need at the time; the ability doesn't lock in one form.
Ach well, hoped for a large form (to use as mount). But thanks for the clarification necromancer. I probably should have quoted the whole text:
Alternate Form: An imp with this ability may choose one additional Tiny, Small, or Medium animal form as if using beast shape II. Each time the imp selects this ability, it gains a new alternate form.
So I assume I have to chose one.

I stand corrected. In that case, I'd start with something innocuous like a rabbit or a goat.
