One ability of your minions particularly strong.

Prerequisites: None

Benefit:

Choose a minion from a summoning spell or feature like animal companion, special mount or eidolon. Such creatures are known as signature minion. Name the creature. The minion is unique, multiple animal companions or summoning spells cast can not call the signature minion twice at the same time.

Signature Saves: You may choose to provide your signature minion with your saving throw base bonuses, unless their bonuses are higher.

Signature Durability: Your signature minion has at least a number of hit points equal to half your maximum hitpoints and natural armor equal to your natural armor.

Resurrection: If a signature minion is slain, you need to raise it with a special ritual that takes one hour and can be done once a game session.

Summoning: Whenever use the appropriate summoning ability, you may choose to call your minion. You can equip it with items wearable by the creature and will bring and use those items, when summoned by you in future. Also the DC of checks to dispel signature summons are increased by 2.

Upgrading: When you gain a similar feature of a higher level, you can choose to replace the minion to upgrade the signature minion to the better version. A upgraded minion retains the items, learned feats and attributes. E.g. Once you reach second level spells, a small fire elemental signature summon, could become a medium fire elemental summoned by summon medium fire elemental. However, a summoned cat cannot be replaced by summon snake. A horse could become a celestial horse or pegasus. Ask your DM if you are unsure.

Alternatively, you can also upgrade summoning spells by adding 2 levels of the pathfinder npc class and +2 to all attributes per raised spell level (you cannot raise attributes that are below 10), e.g., a summoned hound archon (first level spell) raised to a third level spell could gain four pathfinder warrior levels and +4 on all attributes. If you choose the adept class, add the level to the CL of their abilities.

Special: You can gain this feat multiple times. You choose a new name and a new creature each time.
