The Summon Creature Thaumaturgy spell calls forth a creature to aid the Thaumaturge in battle.

Spell Description[edit]

The spell calls a creature that fights the caster’s enemies. However, the selection of the creature being called upon is entirely at random and it can either result in a powerful daemon or a weakly ghoul. The caster has no control over which creature it will be. After the battle is over, if the creature survives it will turn against the caster.

Lore[edit]

“ This highly variable spell magically calls a creature to the Thaumaturge’s defense. The type of creature that appears is not automatically under the control of the caster, depending upon creature’s vicinity and the caster’s power.


“ Speaking these words of power calls a creature to arrive and defend the caster. What creature appears is determined not so much by the caster's wishes, but by the caster's power and the proximity of the summoned creature. The necessary components are the spellbook and the following reagents: Bat Wing, Pumice, Obsidian, Bone.
