In PF1e, Alter Self is like Disguise Self, but it actually changes your body to that of another humanoid. If you have a familiar, you can use their "Share Spells" feature to skip the "self" part of Adapt Self, and cast it on them to give yourself a body double that has all of your skill ranks - and hands, and ability to speak.
Naturally, this means maxing out your Use Magic Device skill to give your little frog buddy akimbo wands to raise all sorts of hell
Now I am going to be wondering if this is possible in Wrath of the Righteous (a PF CRPG).
... does summoning a familiar count as a skill that transfers to the familiar?
Nahh, that'd be a class feature - unlike Use Magic Device, which was just something anyone could put points into like Diplomacy or Perception instead of a feature unique to thieves.
