A curiosity: how is the glowing sigil supposed to interact with stealth, invisibility etc.? Is it just there to make it obvious that PC and Eidolon are connected or does it actually interfere with the above mechanics?

I mean, it mentions both being able to do stuff like stealth together, so I think it'll just be to show the link.

A question relating the setting, about something that doesn't seem to be specified in the advert: do the PCs from Ramyasthana simply happen to be both of the warrior cast as well as summoners, or are the two are intrinsically correlated, in the sense that all members of the warrior caste are summoners?

It's just a coincidence they happen to be summoners.

Cap Ut's Application
Name: Pranaweren
Ancestry and Heritage: Sylph Gnome
Eidolon: Vesyuda, Guardian Plant
Alignments: Neutral Good (both)
First Archetype: Medic
Background: Field Medic

Personality: Driven, loyal, affable and good-hearted, he has a strong sense of duty and spirit of adventure, always looking to improve and grow. Even as a dedicated medic, he can be an undaunted fighter when it comes to it, especially since he has adjusted to Vesyuda's more combative nature.

Description: A gnome in his twenties of average height and weight, he has a sky blue complexion, messy white hair and charming hazel eyes.

People:

Viravan's widowed mother Amdha owns and manages a small tavern. She's helped by the daughter Viraga, who was also trained to be a somewhat proficient fighter by her elder brother, before he was exiled.
Svaanij is a wealthy spice merchant Pran traveled with along the way to Ramyasthana.

Two Goals:

To rehabilitate Viravan's name, after the warrior's negligence led to an unfortunate incident in the past.
To become the best medic, greatest adventurer and most powerful summoner he can be, so that he can better aid those in need and hopefully prevent another demise like Viravan's from happening in his presence.

History: Pranawener comes from a people of ardent and independent wayfarers, adventure and gumption doubled in their gnomish and elemental blood. They typically believe that their ancestors in the First World have been originally sent into the Material Word by the Winds of Spring, some say as a punishment for a forgotten offense, while others interpret such opportunity, to explore and behold the wonders of a new plane of existence, as a gift or a mission. Whatever the truth is, most agree that they shall not fall to the gambling and shackles of capricious gods, the Breath of Spring flows in their veins, and hopefully will safely lead the spirit of the dead back to their ancestral home when the time comes. Blessed is who receives the promise of this mercy.

Born in a distant land plagued by war, Pran had to grow up tempering the mercurial inclinations of his kind with discipline and dedication to better face the adversities of a harsh life.
He quickly found a vocation in the medical arts and as soon as he could he devoted himself to aiding on the battle field those defending their home.
One seemingly small thing that helped him get through the most trying times was caring for a miniature cherry tree, a dose of serenity and elegance against a landscape of violence and uncertainty. But that turned out to be more than a mere diversion, when one fateful day the soul he had been pouring into it, all the strife and sacrifice breathed from the air and a spark from beyond bloomed the humble plant into Vesyuda, a warrior avatar of the Spring. That was his guardian eidolon, the reward for his dedication and strength of spirit, the indissoluble promise of an afterlife in the Garden of Spring.
Another indelible bond forged during the war was his friendship with an exiled warrior from Ramyasthana named Viravan, after the two happened to save each other's life. Once the conflict died out, they went on to adventure together, to continue doing good and opposing evil, until one day Viravan's unquenchable quest for expiation led him to his ultimate sacrifice.

To honor the fallen companion, Pran has traveled to Ramyasthana to inform the family and make his heroic deeds known to the institutions the warrior failed in the past. There the combat medic has found a dying city in need of help, another reason for him to stay.
