Hi all, I'm a level 9 arcane trickster 7 divination wizard 2 rogue here. The idea behind the character is to loot, extort and pillage everywhere he goes, but under cover and all in the name of his goddess, Auril. So far its going great, stole a large amount of gold and items, change disguises, actor feat and divination for pre-rolled dice means getting away with it is going great. The group suspects I'm wealthy but not much more than that.
However! Last night I managed to procure the Luck Blade, through non thievery means. (I paid for it with gold I had previously stole, then stole the money back that I paid for it. Not the point). Now however I have the ability to cast Wish, each day, and I'm thinking of all the uses I could do. One which I'd like to do but I'm unsure on how to do, is how to make my own guild traveling with me. I currently have a familiar Mimic named Senna, and I can summon 4 imps to me for 24hrs each day via an item I have. However I'd really like to be able to control some other beings for good and have them with me, invisible would be a huge benefit.
Can you think of anyway I can use wish to get a creature, or creatures under my control for good. My loose idea is to summon a creature at 11:59:59, then at 12:00:01 I being to cast Simulacrum and now I have such a creature for good. I do need the creature to be there with me for 12hrs though, which is how it gets tough.
Any ideas what would be best here? I haven't looked through all options yet, I'm just starting and I'm open to any ideas you have!

My current working theory is use Wish to cast Planar Binding, summon a being from there, use a divination role (low) to make it fail its charisma check so the being is under my control for 24hrs, then during that time, use another wish (after midnight) to cast simulacrum and make a replicant of the creature for my own, for good. Thoughts?
A Simulacrum would be a valid method of getting a near-permanent summon that is obedient - but it has to be a Beast or a Humanoid. Beyond Planar Binding not being able to affect either Beast or Humanoid type creatures - there are two main problem with Simulacrum. The first is that they are difficult (read: costly) to heal - and they cannot regain any spent spell slots ever. Because of this you're likely going to want to summon something with a ranged attack that can keep itself out of harm's way.
Having to spend 100g of "rare herbs and minerals" per 1 hit point to heal it is extremely cost prohibitive for a melee creature that will be constantly damaged.

Just a small correction. As per the Luck Blade - you have the ability to cast 1d4-1 wishes in total - with at most one wish per day.
