@DM Zarthrax If I did go the, Synthesist route ( >> here << )and I'm not saying I would. Is it banned?
@DM Vitkyng To be honest, I'm not sure why it would be banned. From what I read, the Master Summoner and just the regular Summoner is considered the most optimum. Melding your move/attack options into one instead of keeping them separate seems a little sub-optimum. Also to cast a spell wouldn't the melded creature have to cast the spell therefore the Eidolon can't attack that round? In this world there's the additional complication of being caught. A summoner has plausible deniability if they remain separate. If they are fused it would be hard to explain how you're not involved with the magic fusing them.
Taking an idea mentioned earlier, I might even say that she thinks she need to get high to be able to summon her Eidolon. It wouldn't be really true but it would be an interesting bit of role playing. When she's high, the devil (or succubus) comes out to play.
