Thanks for the scheme. Piter is getting an appropriate retool.
He's pretty much a blank slate (except for the Bluebeard, Dune & Led Zeppelin reference). But he can be Wade's taxi with an even ridiculouser Con 21, so if you want some authorial input be my guest.

Phantoms: Phantoms are given stats according to the summoner and the summoner's level, and a random Axe, either an Iron Axe, a Killer Axe, a Devil Axe, or a Tomahawk. Their Weapon Rank is A.
I'll be using fixed growths to scale their attributes. They act immediately on summon and enemies will "prefer" them.
@Penguinator
What did you mean? That's the way they worked in-game, though I don't remember the upper MOV value being that stupidly high (I'm pretty sure it was always 5).
If you want to change their weapon to sword/spear I'm okay with that, but they'll always be summoned with the weapon that you choose.
@Ascaloth
I didn't actually anwser your question, but I'd like the shopping list by Saturday, so that I can finalize things by Sunday.
@Illven
I don't know, lol. I just grabbed the stuff from the FE-wiki.
Your shopping list checks out. You don't get any benefits for not spending all your money, so maybe you'll want to buy another Light Rune (Tara has a slot open). :"p
@Penguinator
Okay, just off the top of my head, how about this for summoned phantoms:
15 stat points to distribute and 400% growths.
No more than 5 points or 100% growths can be assigned to a single stat; HP cannot grow.
HP = 1 // cannot be improved
Mov = 5 // can be improved by up to twice for 2 points/step or 20% growths/step
Con = 8 // can be improved by 2 for 1 stat point or 10% growths
Axe/Sword/Lance as per your choice; can trade for bow for 5% growths or magic for 50% growths.
Can "upgrade" equipment up to twice [2x] for 35% growths per tier upgrade; this eliminates a weapon of your choice from the possible weapon list.
Can add +1 max summoned Phantoms for 100% growths.
Caps for all attributes except for LCK (30) are 20.

Okay I can't seem to find how long a light rune lasts, which is great. I'll do some tests later to figure that out.
And alright, phantom looks fine to me.
I'll probably use some kind of devil-axe expy for the other weapon variants as well; a high-mt weapon that has a 30-LCK% chance to backfire and gib you.

Brother to Eric and Thomas Numpton, Jacob was the firstborn son. As such, his training was mostly martial. He spent a term serving in the royal army before the kidnapping of his parents by agents of another house. Jacob petitioned for a leave of absence, but by the time it was granted, Eric had already tracked down the perpitraitors and sent missive to Jacob detailing their wherabouts. Eric, however, was not strong enough to defeat the brigands, and was captured.
Due to the Numpton Family's long history of service to the Crown, Jacob was allowed to take his entire squad to rescue his family.
Jacob and Karena, who was his second in command at the time, managed to fight their way into the hidden stronghold, and killed the conspiritors to the man.
After their terms of service, Jacob married Karena, and they had one son, Nathan.

Brother to Jacob and Thomas, Eric was the second born, and as is custom, was given to the Church. Eric's training was martial and spiritual, and they raised him to become a Paladin. When Eric's noble parents were abducted by a rival house, his position as a Holy Knight allowed him the opportunity to pursue the kidnappers immediately. While not as adept as his older brother in martial combat, Eric's determination and adherance to thorough documentation and regular missives allowed Jacob to pick up the trail easilly when Eric could not handle the Kidnappers alone.

Brother to Jacob and Eric Numpton, Thomas was the third-born, and was allowed to pursue any intrests he fancied. This took him to Arcane study, which was to be a black mark in the Numpton family tree. An incident involving dark magic removed Thomas from the plane mid-way through his studies. His instructors, unable to trace what had happened to him, reported him dead, and refunded half of his tuition.
Thomas, however, ended up on another world. Lost and unable to fend for himself, he was thankfully taken in by the travelling mage, Bold Hallmark. Bold agreed to apprentice Thomas, despite their very different approaches to Magic.
In their travels, Thomas was magically seduced by Miranda LaCay, and fathered Ryan Numpton.

Background:
Spoiler
A Diviner by trade, and a dropout from one of Rashamen's pristegious mage academies, Miranda became obsessed with climbing the social ladder by any means neccesary. The LaCay family was once nobility, but had been disgraced, their lands siezed ant even the name becomming a derogatory slur for hired help (Lackey). Concocting a love potion, and using her powers of divination, she seduced Thomas Numpton, whom her powers had informed her was of a noble house. Sadly, she was not informed that he was from another world entirely. Using their magic, they managed to carve out a rather luxurious state of living anyhow, but an enemy mage from Thay cursed Miranda, ensuring she would only bear a single child, and that he would be half-demon. While this came to pass, and shocked her into a melancholy, she eventually renewed her focus, striking a black bargain with dark forces, her soul in order to ensure her line never died out.
Raised in secret, and cloaked by powerful illusions, Ryan Numpton is the sole son of Thomas and Miranda. He was schooled in magical arts from a very young age, and was the first graduate from the Hallmark Academy of the Arcane Arts. The curse afflicting Ryan would have made him a dangerous killer, afflicting his spirit with a deep hatred for all life. Luckilly, Bold managed to warp the curse, not removing the hate, but channeling and focusing it until it was aimed only at elves. Ryan eventually married a fellow student of the Hallmark Academy, Tavangala Dawnsong. He never found out about her ancestry.

From an ancient unseelie house, Tavangala was sent to the Hallmark Academy when her mother learned of her affinity towards Illusion and Enchantment magic. Tavangala would have been a target for enemies of her kind, but her mother, Nyaelelliess negotiated a deal with Bold. She would be saef so long as she studied in his school, and under powerful illusions masking her identity. Given the atmosphere of seclusion and intensive study, it is of little surprise that she found companionship with another of the students, Ryan Numpton. The two eventually wed post-graduation, and so far have had only one daughter, who they named after their mutual protector and instructor, Hallmark. Given the unnatural nature of both, it is likely they may eventually bear other offspring. Tavangala never found out about Ryan's strange affliction.

Her only praise came from excelling at anima magic, so that became the world which she orbited around. Hallmark aspires to become one of the great sages, reknowned for magical knowledge and aptitude. She eschews most human contact, and recently has found religeon, in a manner of speaking.
