Drow Courtesan summon

Emrys will, should he successfully complete his mission, gain a second conjuration companion: A Drow Courtesan. Not as strong in a straight fight as the Puppet, but they get their own set of actions and can operate independently for a bit if he feeds them a spell point. Given his style of magic, they will all take the form of shadowy silhouettes.

This one will in fact be an actual drow soul plucked from an evil aligned afterlife. Curtis gets a semi-disposable minion; the summoned individual gets to “safely” amass power, the only currency that matters in most of the lower planes. They will be heavily encouraged to keep Emrys alive and in good standing, because when he gets stronger so do they. Everyone wins. So, who is it?

The Dancer - Erotic dance is a profitable enough gig that most dancers don’t sleep with their clients at all. That said, if you’re bad enough with money you always need more. Her transformation has turned her into a deadly, agile killer. That said, she’s better at dodging and distracting than killing.

The Black Widow - a live in mistress is the classiest of all courtesans. Of course, an evil one would have quite a web of lies and manipulation to secure the resources she needs for her lifestyle, and poison to remove anyone problematic. Her transformation into a damned outsider has given her a far more literal web, allowing her to entangle and bind her victims, and a venomous bite for when that isn’t enough.

The Ghost: Just a lowborn girl whose desperation led her down multiple dark paths. Where the others can stand up and become more physical, she’s stuck as a true shadow. She’s a tricky sort, a good scout, and can make herself useful in combat mostly by fighting dirty.

The Actress: Showbiz is competitive, and the places that would allow a drow to perform tend to be on the seedy side. She was more than willing to sacrifice her competition as well as her own dignity. By far the worst fighter of the options presented, but she can fake being a living being and is capable of taking on all manner of roles with acting skills bolstered by minor shapeshifting.

Modifier: Familiar. - free summons are great, but they always cost something. This modifier will make the summon drastically weaker, but they won’t need concentration OR a spell point to summon, allowing nearly 100% uptime.

Modifier: Bro? - Who said all courtesans have to be girls? Make them a somewhat shitty dude that sold his body to get by and ended up bound for an evil afterlife instead. This won’t alter their power or skillset at all, but will slightly alter their behavior.

Modifier: Unwilling- This CAN be a mutually beneficial arrangement, but if Curtis is willing to risk them getting violent or uncooperative, the powers that be can hook him up with someone that was already doing fine, probably on their way to becoming an outsider. They will be more like a demon or devil, actively want Emrys dead so they can get back to ascending, and can attempt to break free once per summoning if Emrys isn’t monitoring them. In return, they are stronger.
