Keep in mind that with a form like that, you have to work around a very minimal equpment build. You can't carry a backpack, and you don't have much in the name of portage options.
Shouldn't the base faerie dragon be effective character level 3 giving you 4 starting class levels?
You can get a familiar faerie dragon which might be fun
Looks like you thought of anything else I would've recomended. Have fun :)

I think if I were a good aligned faerie dragon, I'd feel kind of strange enslaving my own kind that way. :)
This one I created for the late PathfinderDB website:
Loellia
--------------------
NPC notes
--------------------
Loellia has "adopted" this small out of the way village. Crafters within the village have learned that leaving out treats, especially pies. will sometimes be rewarded with having their work turn out better than usual. She usually deters foes with mischief, but if pressed.. can bring her "inner dragon" out. She has discovered a child with sorcerous gifts like her own and has taken to tutoring her. She also keeps a watch on her charge from afar. She's familliar with adventurers and if she perceives a threat that she can't handle, she's not above geasing to obtain assistance, if other means do not suit.

Keep in mind that with a form like that, you have to work around a very minimal equpment build. You can't carry a backpack, and you don't have much in the name of portage options.I don't see why a Tiny sized Handy Haversack isn't an option. That solves almost all of the carrying issues.
How would you put things in it?
Shrink item might be a useful spell if you need to steal something big (maybe as a scroll or two?), heightened awareness is a great spell for a scout, heroism is likely useful for self-buffing.
Remember with just one level in the actual sorcerer class you won't get any bloodline spells or powers beyond the 1st level one.
I've got to say the monsters as characters rules obviously weren't thought out well, but if your group is good with them more power to you. Literally.
Why do you need to carry anything?
Get a small pack animal, or just another party member to hold your stuff.
As you are Tiny, you could probably ride any of the other party members.
An Intensified Snowball for this character would do 8d6+4d6 damage against touch AC, with no SR allowed, using a level 1 slot.
A Silent Acid Splash would do 1d3+4d6 damage against touch AC, with no SR allowed, using a level 0 slot, so being able to spam them while Invisible.
Can you explain to me where the +4d6 comes from? I don't understand this.

Sneak attack. Rogue 1 +1d6, Accomplished Sneak Attacker +1d6, Arcane Trickster 4 +2d6.
Thank you avr
:-)
Going Eldritch Scoundrel might also work nicely for your purposes.
Ah, forgot it was locked into 3 Sorcerer.
Fiery Shuriken is a mean way to spam lots of attacks, and with Elemental (Cold) you can throw Rime Fiery Shuriken for control/debuff.
On the more directly arcane side of things, Fey Bloodline has a flat bonus to DC that makes specializing in something like Persistent Hideous Laughter (with Wayang Spellhunter) very potent, even if your CHA isn't aggressively maximized and you aren't using Heighten Spell until much later.

As simultaneous attacks, only one would receive the sneak attack bonus.

It's quite possible to fire off another shuriken in the same round with a swift action...
Fiery Shuriken lacks the usual "simultaneous" language, but it's probably a tough sell to claim sneak on all of them for that reason. Still, the precedent is that spells that attack simultaneously say so.
Sounds like a fun concept. Don't forget to pick up Muleback Cords and a Masterwork Backpack.
