Ok, so I've made a tattooed sorcerer. At 7th level his figment familiar can get its second evolution point. This leads to the possibility of it giving one evolution point to the sorcerer.
Not a huge problem. While it's out. But when it changes shape and goes back to tattoo form it loses its SU (manifest dreams). But the evolution given with share evolution lasts until the familiar(Eidolon) is dispelled or sent back to its home plane.
Does the sorcerer keep the evolution until it can touch the familiar? Or does he lose it?
The "shape change" effect of the tattoo familiar would seem it would be just like if you changed it with baleful polymorph or something else that gets rid of SU abilities... So the "gifted evolution" would stay?
Keep in mind that the shared evolution trait is only available to summoners with the twinned summoner archetype.
Shared Evolution (Su) (Legacy of the First World pg. 19): Select a 1-point or 2-point evolution the eidolon has. As a standard action, the eidolon can touch the summoner and transfer the selected evolution to him. This functions as the summoner’s aspect ability, and the same limitations apply. The summoner can touch the eidolon as a standard action to return the evolution. The evolution returns to the eidolon automatically if the eidolon is dismissed by the summoner or sent back to its home plane. Requirements: Twinned eidolon.
Otherwise, IMO the benefits of shared evolution would go away when it loses the manifest dreams ability.
