Additional Eidolon subtypes: What do you want?


Pathfinder First Edition General Discussion


While I don't mind the unchained summoner as such, I find the subtypes particularly limiting. After all, there are many outsider creatures that don't fit within the subtypes given.
And there are a few character concepts that just don't work with the subtypes as given. And that doesn't even go into all the evolutions that have apparently been dropped entirely.

So, I started wondering, what do people want to see with the subtypes?

Personally I'd like to see some Old Ones types. ie Unknowable things from beyond. Obviously not the old ones themselves (talk about an epic level summoner!) but an avatar or something. Lots of tentacles and bind bending shapes.

An Asura subtype would be cool. More for villian NPCs but still.

Or how about ones from more asian style games? Oni or Kami etc?

What would you guys want to see?

More subtypes would be great, but personally, what I'd love to see is more base forms. How about something with higher mental stats and lower physical ones so we see more skill monkey eidolons instead of the usual array of extraplanar murder hobos?


I'd love fey or First World eidolons being available, although I suppose fey aren't really outsiders.

The one thing I'd want in an Eidolon is a good int score. The lack of that is why I've never made one. Although with the dirty fighter feat I may no longer need the int.


There should really be a flying base form for bird-type eidolons.
