Avatar (Su)

At 1st level, a summoner begins play with the ability to summon to his side a powerful outsider called an avatar. The summoner must choose which avatar to form a pact with, from the following: Alexander, Anima, Bahamut, Bismarck, Carbuncle, Diabolos, Fenrir, Garuda, Ifrit, Ixion, Leviathan, Odin, Phoenix, Ramuh, Shiva, Siren, Titan, Valefor, or Yojimbo.

Once chosen, the avatar forms a link with the summoner, who summons an aspect of the same creature. An avatar has the same alignment as the summoner that calls it and can speak all of his languages. Avatars are treated as summoned creatures, except that they are not sent back to their home plane until reduced to a number of negative hit points equal to or greater than their Constitution score. The summoner may only have one pact with a specific avatar. To change the summoner’s pact, he must defeat an incarnation of the avatar he wishes to form a pact with (up to GM’s discretion on how this comes about). Once the summoner gains the new pact, he loses the old pact.

A summoner can summon his avatar in a ritual that takes 1 minute to perform. When summoned in this way, the avatar hit points are unchanged from the last time it was summoned. The avatar remains until dismissed by the summoner (a standard action). If the summoner is unconscious, asleep, or killed, his avatar is immediately banished. The avatar’s Hit Dice, saving throws, skills, feats, and abilities are tied to the summoner’s class level and increase as the summoner gains levels. In addition, each avatar receives improvements, based on the summoner’s level, which can be used to upgrade the avatar’s abilities and powers. The avatar has a caster level equal to its hit dice for its own spells.
