HARDLIGHT FAMILIAR
FEAT 2
LUMINARY
Your magic has coalesced into a hardlight familiar, a little companion that often serves as both assistant and mascot. You gain a familiar, which has the construct familiar ability; this doesn’t count against your usual limit of familiar abilities (typically 2). A hardlight familiar can Step or Stride into your spotlight and disappear. When you Set a Spotlight on yourself, you can re-form your hardlight familiar in your square or a square adjacent to you.
Can it Step or Stride into a spotlight placed on it in order to vanish out of trouble if you send it out short range scounting or to peak around a corner? Requires LOS and refreshing the spotlight, or maintaining the spotlight on it as your exploration activity, but maybe useful. Definitely something to think about if you have the invisibility role.
Accompanyist ability avoids the issue that Virtuosic Performer only clearly applies its bonus to a handful of abilities where you specifically Peform with a roll against a DC, rather than the things like initiative where you roll Performance. Accompanyist just clearly works on everything that uses the skill.
Familiar Focus is the obvious other one, I think, if your GM allows familiars to ride their master. It's just a 2nd level feat for a flat +1-2 circ bonus on all Performance checks (including initiative, many skill replacement options, and counteracts) and a bonus focus point per day that you can stack on the 1-2 (maybe now 3 with Gap-touched, if there's a 1st level one to steal) ancestry feat options also available.
Free archetype stuff to enhance it via a spellcasting dedication or Familiar Master might make sense for normal familiar play.
If you give it the ability to Manipulate it can spin the Wheel of Superstars, which is funny, but probably only useful for the fireball or heal results, so bad math. I don't see anything else it can interact with on the spell side.
I know re-forming the familiar is with respect to the disappearance, but it makes it very odd for this to take a week to re-summon if it dies. It feels like it should be a daily prep respawn like Animist or Witch.
