Medar: /* Glyph not provided by monsterlink script */

==Removed Categories and Templates==
Hey Medar, just wondering what happened to all the categories and templates that are up for deletion. Where they never used, or were they used before but now are no longer needed? [[User:Flun|Flun]] ([[User talk:Flun|talk]]) 14:23, 10 February 2016 (CET)
:Most of them appear to have been used by old versions of monster pages. Some properties have been removed. Some use different names ("No HT wand" vs. "No high tier wand" etc.). There are bunch of other unused templates that I didn't mark for removal, mostly for monster glyphs, see: [[Special:UnusedTemplates]] -- [[User:Medar|Medar]] ([[User talk:Medar|talk]]) 16:55, 10 February 2016 (CET)

== Code diving for unique Louise ==

I like your undo action in [[Louise]] very much, because it was based on code diving and referencing the code spot. Alas, the crawl wiki has not yet been updated to the *thank you*-button script that I know from wikipedia editing. So I tell you here: thank you! -- [[User:Bwijn|Bwijn]] ([[User talk:Bwijn|talk]]) 13:36, 29 April 2016 (CEST)

== Removal of Igni Ipthes ==

Hello, I noticed the stub is still there despite no changes being made to it since 2014. I added a comment on its talk page. How to proceed? --[[User:JStrange|JStrange]] ([[User talk:JStrange|talk]]) 16:37, 29 May 2016 (CEST)
:Only admins can remove articles. I don't know if there is anything else to do after proposing deletion. --[[User:Medar|Medar]] ([[User talk:Medar|talk]]) 14:08, 30 May 2016 (CEST)
::YOu're right, the final deletion is limited to admins. But if at least three of the active wiki workers consent this will influence the admins to act! -- [[User:Bwijn|Bwijn]] ([[User talk:Bwijn|talk]]) 16:53, 30 May 2016 (CEST)

== Glyph not provided by monsterlink script ==

Dear Medar, 
as you are a very experienced contributor for our wiki scripts, I'd wish you could look over [[Unique monster]] page and debug monter link for Bai Shuzen entry. The glyph won't come out. Why? Just b/c we didn't yet rerun the script after a good guy wrote the missing article? Or is sth else failing? -- [[User:Bwijn|Bwijn]] ([[User talk:Bwijn|talk]]) 22:32, 27 December 2016 (CET)
:Looks like it uses templates for each unique, I manually created [[Template:Glyph/Bai_Suzhen]], so it should work now. -- [[User:Medar|Medar]] ([[User talk:Medar|talk]]) 14:31, 28 December 2016 (CET)

Guaranteed damage reduction

2016-12-01T10:23:23Z

Medar: Mark as unknown version.

{{version}}

Wearing any body armour with AC greater than 2 provides you with an amount of '''guaranteed damage reduction (GDR)''' in melee combat. Normally, each attack that hits you is reduced by a random amount up to your AC. GDR is a form of insurance against poor AC rolls; if you have sufficient AC, you are guaranteed to reduce the damage taken by a percentage of the enemy's maximum attack damage equal to your GDR up to half of your AC. As an enemy's damage output is about as variable as your AC, a high GDR will allow you to completely negate an enemy's attacks much more often than normal, and those attacks that do get through will always be significantly diminished.

==Calculating GDR==
In most cases, your GDR% = (14*(Body Armour Base AC-2)^(1/2))%. No other type of armour provides any benefits to GDR.

===GDR of Various Armours===
{| class="wikitable"
! Armour || Base AC || GDR
|-
| [[Robe]], [[animal skin]] || 2 || 0%
|-
| [[Leather armour]] || 3 || 14%
|-
| [[Troll leather armour]] || 4 || 19%
|-
| [[Ring mail]], [[steam dragon armour]] || 5 || 24%
|-
| [[Scale mail]], [[mottled dragon armour]] || 6 || 28%
|-
| [[Swamp dragon armour]] || 7 || 31%
|-
| [[Chain mail]], [[fire dragon armour]] || 8 || 34%
|-
| [[Ice dragon armour]], [[quicksilver dragon armour]] || 9 || 37%
|-
| [[Plate armour]], [[pearl dragon armour]], [[storm dragon armour]], [[shadow dragon armour]] || 10 || 39%
|-
| [[Gold dragon armour]] || 12 || 44%
|-
| [[Crystal plate armour]] || 14 || 48%
|-
|}

There are also two [[Transmutations]] spells which allow you to have GDR in spite of the fact that they effectively disable your body armour: [[Dragon Form]] (34%) and [[Statue Form]] (39%). Finally, [[gargoyle]] characters receive an innate boost to GDR. This boost is inversely proportional to the GDR provided by your body armour.

==What GDR Affects==
GDR only works against one thing: physical damage dealt by monsters attacking you in melee (including via a [[reaching]] brand). It does not work against any sort of ranged attack, be it from a physical launcher or a [[Conjurations]] spell that deals physical damage. Neither does it work against elemental melee damage, such as an [[ice beast]]'s cold damage. However, most such elemental attacks need to deal physical damage to you before their added effects trigger, so high GDR will make them happen less often.

==Guaranteed Damage Reduction Cap==
GDR is '''not''' a form of damage reduction independent from AC. If you have excellent GDR and terrible AC, it will do you little good. The damage reduction is capped at your GDR% of the enemy's maximum damage or 1/2 of your AC, whichever is lower.

For example, let's say you have 48% GDR and 100 AC, and you're facing an opponent capable of dealing up to 50 damage in a single hit. This would give you a guaranteed damage reduction of 24 (48% of 50), taking full advantage of the 48% GDR. The same 48% GDR coupled with 20 AC would only give a guaranteed reduction of 10, a mere 20% of the enemy's max damage, because it is capped at 1/2 of your AC. If you are instead facing an opponent capable of dealing 200 damage, then even at 100 AC, you'd only be guaranteed 50 damage reduction (25%), while the 20 AC character would still be stuck with 10 (which is now only 5%). In each of these cases, the GDR is still helping; even in the case of 20 AC vs. 200 max damage, it still mitigates the worst possible rolls.

This guaranteed damage reduction is effectively a minimum AC roll. If your damage reduction is 24 (as in the first example above) and you roll a 1 on your AC against a given attack, your roll will be boosted up to 24 instead. But if you roll a 36 on your AC, you won't get any bonus from GDR because you're already above the minimum.

==Strategy==
GDR's usefulness depends heavily on how often you find yourself in melee combat, how high your AC is, and how much you're willing to sacrifice your [[ev]]asion defense (in general, the worse an armour is for your evasion, the higher its GDR will be). Unless you intend to wade into close combat whenever possible, ''and'' you have no intention of training [[Dodging]], you'll likely be better off avoiding super-heavy armour which maximizes GDR and focusing on optimizing your AC, EV, spells, and resistances to keep yourself alive. Characters that actively avoid melee, whether it be through fast movement speed or ranged attacks, will barely notice the effect of their GDR.

Background

2016-12-01T10:15:50Z

Medar: /* See Also */ Remove a link to an outdated table.

{{version017}}
A '''background''' (also known as a '''class''') is your character's occupation, what they have learned prior to entering the [[Dungeon]]. Your background determines your starting [[skills]], stats, [[items]], and (in the case of religious backgrounds) your [[god]].

==Backgrounds & Difficulty==
As one might expect, some backgrounds are easier than others, at least to begin with. The best ones for a beginner are probably [[berserker]]s or [[fighter]]s. [[Berserker]]s have an easy early time with their berserk ability. If you would rather play a mage, try a [[conjurer]].

Note also that almost every [[species]] can and should convert to a god in-play, once you find that god's [[altar]]. Indeed, a guaranteed area - the [[Ecumenical Temple]] - was designed to facilitate exactly this strategy. Many gods do not have backgrounds to represent them, so you may decide it best to pick a non-religious background so that you will be free to join one of the "non-starter" gods.

==Classes in ''Crawl''==
An important difference between ''Crawl'' and most other roguelikes (and indeed other video game RPGs) is that your background is only your ''starting package'', not an advancement path that is set in stone.

''Crawl'' was designed to give you a lot of flexibility with how your character develops as they grow, and it does this by giving you a free hand to distribute your experience between your skills however you see fit. Your chosen class has no direct impact on this; it only gives you a starting point to move forward from. Your choice of species, however, will make certain skills easier to learn than others, and your class does determine your starting stats which make certain play styles more viable than others.

For example, your [[fighter]] could potentially learn [[spell]]s until they look more like a [[wizard]], build up their [[Stealth]] and [[Stabbing]] until they're basically an [[assassin]]... or just keep bashing monsters and wearing heavy armour and making your fighter a more talented fighter. As a fighter, your high [[strength]] may not contribute as much to these alternate paths as high [[intelligence]] or [[dexterity]] would, but the choice is there.

==List of backgrounds==
There are 25 different backgrounds in ''Dungeon Crawl'' (plus obsolete backgrounds). More information can be found at the pages for the individual backgrounds. They are broken up here into the categories shown on the initial select screen.

===Warriors===
* [[Fighter]] (Fi) - A heavily-armoured warrior with a good general grounding in melee combat.
* [[Gladiator]] (Gl) - A warrior from the arena who has a good balance between melee and ranged combat.
* [[Monk]] (Mo) - An ascetic warrior with extensive knowledge of [[Unarmed Combat]]. They start off with limited equipment, but their pious ways make the gods look favourably upon them.
* [[Hunter]] (Hu) - A warrior who specializes in long-range weaponry.
* [[Assassin]] (As) - A killer who favours stealth and poison over brute force.

===Zealots===
* [[Berserker]] (Be) - A savage warrior who worships [[Trog]], the violent god of rage.
* [[Abyssal Knight]] (AK) - A warrior-priest of [[Lugonu]], the god of corruption and chaos.
* [[Chaos Knight]] (CK) - A warrior-priest of [[Xom]], an unpredictable and fickle chaos god.

===Warrior-mages===
* [[Skald]] (Sk) - A war-chanting fighter using [[Charms]] to augment their attacks.
* [[Enchanter]] (En) - A spellcaster versed in the subtle arts of [[Hexes]].
* [[Transmuter]] (Tm) - A magician whose [[Transmutations]] can change both themselves and those around them.
* [[Arcane Marksman]] (AM) - A hunter who combines enchantments and missiles to deadly effect.
* [[Warper]] (Wr) - A warrior who uses [[Translocations]] magic to move around the battlefield.

===Mages===
* [[Wizard]] (Wz) - A broadly-educated magician who does not specialize in any one school of magic.
* [[Conjurer]] (Cj) - A magician who wields the destructive art of [[Conjurations]].
* [[Summoner]] (Su) - A magician who calls allies through [[Summonings]].
* [[Necromancer]] (Ne) - A magician who studies the dark arts of [[Necromancy]].
* [[Fire Elementalist]] (FE) - An elementalist who specializes in [[Fire Magic]].
* [[Ice Elementalist]] (IE) - An elementalist who specializes in [[Ice Magic]].
* [[Air Elementalist]] (AE) - An elementalist who specializes in [[Air Magic]].
* [[Earth Elementalist]] (EE) - An elementalist who specializes in [[Earth Magic]].
* [[Venom Mage]] (VM) - A spellcaster who specializes in [[Poison Magic]].

===Adventurers===
* [[Artificer]] (Ar) - An [[Evocations]] specialist armed with wands and rods.
* [[Wanderer]] (Wn) - A fool that somehow ended up in the [[Dungeon]]. Starts off with random equipment and skills.

==History==
Prior to [[0.14]], most backgrounds started with 20 gold.

The [[Arcane Marksman]] was removed in [[0.8]], but reintroduced in [[0.10]].

===Obsolete Backgrounds===
* [[Death Knight (background)|Death Knight]] (DK) - A warrior-priest of [[Yredelemnul]], the god of death. Removed in [[0.16]].
* [[Healer]] (He) - A pacifistic worshipper of [[Elyvilon]], the god of healing. Removed in [[0.16]].
* [[Priest]] (Pr) - A priest of order. They worship either [[Zin]] the Law-Giver, or [[Beogh]] if a [[Hill Orc]]. Removed in 0.13.
* [[Paladin]] (Pa) - A warrior who worships [[The Shining One]], a god of holy war. Removed in 0.8.
* [[Reaver]] (Re) - A warrior who uses [[Conjurations]] to bolster their destructiveness. Removed in 0.8.
* [[Stalker]] (St) - An assassin who uses [[Transmutations]] magic to kill victims. Removed in 0.12.
* [[Thief]] (Th) - A sneaky type, well versed in the working of traps and moving unseen. Removed in 0.7.

Medar: /* Effect */ Fix formula.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Song of Slaying''' is a level 2 [[Charms]] spell which gives you a temporary [[slaying]] bonus based on the number of monsters killed.

==Effect==
While the spell is active +1 slaying bonus is gained from each enemy killed, until a cap of +9. Only killing monsters that give [[XP]] will increase the bonus, so destroying [[summon]]s will not help. Unfortunately, to maintain the spell your character must sing, generating significant [[noise]].

The song lasts ''20 + (1d<power> + 1d(<power> + 1)) / 2 - 1'' turns.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-selfench.cc|329}}</ref> It's possible to end the song at any time. Casting the spell again while still active will renew the duration, but also resets the slaying bonus.

Be aware that Song of Slaying will end immediately if you are affected by [[silence]]. Leaving the affected area does not cause it to restart with its former bonus; you'll have to cast it again and build up your slaying bonus from scratch.

==Trivia==
In late December, online ''Crawl'' servers replace this spell with the '''Song of Sleighing''':

{{flavour|This spell conjures ancient Christmas carols within the caster's mind, which the caster then recites — quite loudly! Each non-summoned enemy the caster slays in combat during this recitation temporarily enhances their melee & ranged skills. The bonus only lasts for the duration of the song; casting this spell while already singing will start a new song, not extend an existing one.}}

This has no impact on actual gameplay.

==History==
Prior to [[0.18]], toughness of monsters controlled how much they could increase the slaying bonus. The bonus wasn't capped.

Prior to [[0.14]], the spell had lower duration and granted less slaying, but had a higher power cap.

Song of Slaying was added in 0.13.

Magic contamination

2016-12-01T10:01:19Z

Medar: /* Miscasts */ Tweak formula representation

{{version|0.19}}
'''Magic contamination''' is a dangerous condition caused by miscasts and some magical effects.

==Overview==
Various activities cause harmful magical energies to accumulate in your body. A small amount of magical contamination (a dark or light grey "Contam" status) is mostly harmless, and will dissipate over time without any further effect. Larger amounts of accumulated magic contamination (a yellow, red, or dark red "Contam" status) will make you start to [[glow]] with magical contamination.

The glow from severe contamination makes you easier to hit and reveals you if [[invisible]] (similar to the [[Corona]] spell). Over time you may also suffer damage and [[mutation]]s.

Any amount of contamination can cause [[ugly thing]]s adjacent to you change their colour.

==Contamination Levels==

While being severely contaminated every 200 to 600 turns<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|timed_effects.cc|949}}</ref> there is contamination / 12<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|timed_effects.cc|800}}</ref> chance of a violent release of energies. Standing in a [[sanctuary]] stops this from happening.

One likely bad mutation (about 95% chance) is gained that bypasses [[mutation resistance]]. If contamination is higher than 10, there is also a damaging explosion. The damage is 3d(contamination / 2), and doubled for the non-living. Explosion size also increases with the contamination level. After the negative effects contamination is reduced by 1 to 1 + (contamination / 4)<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|timed_effects.cc|745}}</ref>.

==History==
Prior to [[0.19]], the light grey contamination level didn't exist.

Prior to [[0.10]], this effect was simply called [[glow]], a term which ambiguously referred either to magic contamination, or to the relatively harmless glow from [[Sticky Flame]] or [[Corona]].

Malign Gateway

2016-12-01T09:46:10Z

Medar: /* Effect */ Fix formula.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Malign Gateway''' is a level 7 [[Summonings|Summoning]]/[[Translocations|Translocation]] spell which summons a portal through which an [[eldritch tentacle]] emerges.

==Effect==
Opens a up a gateway for eldritch tentacle in a random nearby location with floor or shallow water and no adjacent walls. Higher [[spell power]] makes the tentacle remain friendly longer.

It takes ''1 + 1d3'' turns before a tentacle emerges from the gateway.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1317}}</ref> The tentacle stays friendly for ''(1d<power> + 5d(<power> + 1)) / 6 - 1 - (1d4 - 1)'' turns<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|timed_effects.cc|1641}}</ref>, or until the gateway is closed and the tentacle is severed.

There can only be one such portal open at a time. This means that if you cast the spell, enemies who know the spell will be unable to cast it until yours closes (and vice versa).

==Strategy==
*Eldritch tentacles are powerful and fast, capable of hitting the average monster for up to 70 HP of [[chaos|chaotic]] damage per attack and inflicting all manner of extra effects with each hit.
*Although extremely powerful, the tentacle is not summoned instantaneously. Several turns will pass before the tentacle emerges from the portal. Plan accordingly, and use other summoned allies in the meantime.
*This spell requires an open area to cast. Attempts to cast in a narrow corridor will fail.
*The tentacle can attack outside of the player's [[line of sight]].
*Eldritch tentacles cannot be hasted or abjured.

==History==
*Prior to [[0.17]], casting this spell had a 20% chance of causing 1d3 points of temporary [[Intelligence]] damage.
*Malign Gateway was added in [[0.8]].

The game offers 26 different playable '''species'''. Most are essentially humanoid, although some are human-animal hybrids and a few are even stranger.

==Species List==
*'''[[Centaur]]''' (Ce): A humanoid with a horse's lower half. Its four hooves allow it to run very quickly, but it is poor at most things apart from ranged combat.
*'''[[Deep Dwarf]]''' (DD): A cousin of the (now obsolete) [[mountain dwarf]], unable to regenerate but with a strong empathy for the earth and the ability to intrinsically resist small doses of damage.
*'''[[Deep Elf]]''' (DE): A cave-dwelling species of elf, smaller and weaker than others, but with incredible magical ability. A very good choice for [[spellcaster]]s.
*'''[[Demigod]]''' (Dg): A human with divine heritage that prevents them from worshipping any god. They have excellent statistics, but need more experience for both their skills and their leveling.
*'''[[Demonspawn]]''' (Ds): A person with a demonic heritage. Unlike Demigods, they may lend their services to all gods except the good ones. They acquire [[Demonspawn mutations|powerful mutations]] as they mature.
*'''[[Draconian]]''' (Dr): A humanoid dragon that eventually matures into a random adult form, with different aptitudes based on its colour.
*'''[[Felid]]''' (Fe): A sentient house cat that is incapable of using almost all forms of equipment and many items, but is fast, stealthy, and has multiple lives.
*'''[[Formicid]]''' (Fo): A humanoid ant with four powerful arms. They can dig through walls, but have permanent stasis.
*'''[[Gargoyle]]''' (Gr): A humanoid with stone-like skin and a large set of intrinsic characteristics.
*'''[[Ghoul]]''' (Gh): A terrible undead corpse which must eat the flesh of others to maintain its life force. Has manageable (if below-average) aptitudes for magic and is fairly skilled with its claws.
*'''[[Halfling]]''' (Ha): A small humanoid that cannot use large weapons and is poor with most magic, but is otherwise quite hardy and stealthy. They excel with [[Slings]].
*'''[[High Elf]]''' (HE): A species of tall, long-lived elf, with many enhanced aptitudes. They advance in levels very slowly.
*'''[[Hill Orc]]''' (HO): A brutish species, related to the cave [[orc]]s who can be found all over the [[Dungeon]] and in the [[Orcish Mines]]. They make excellent warriors and have [[Beogh|their own god]].
*'''[[Human]]''' (Hu): The basic species against which all others are measured. They have average [[aptitude]]s across the board and no special abilities, but gain levels at the fastest possible rate.
*'''[[Kobold]]''' (Ko): A tiny, hateful lizard-like being with a powerful stomach. They level quickly and are quite good as sneaky assassins.
*'''[[Merfolk]]''' (Mf): An aquatic, magical race of half-humanoids, half-fish that thrive in the water. Great aptitudes for Transmutations, [[Polearms]], and [[Ice Magic]].
*'''[[Minotaur]]''' (Mi): A brawny, bipedal bovine species. Great at all forms of physical combat (both ranged and up close), but horrible with all forms of magic.
*'''[[Mummy]]''' (Mu): Animated by an unholy magic, this dry and bandaged corpse needs no food to survive. However, their skills advance slowly and they fear [[fire]] above all else.
*'''[[Naga]]''' (Na): A humanoid with a serpentine lower half. Exceptionally stealthy and skilled with [[Poison Magic]], but moves very slowly.
*'''[[Octopode]]''' (Op): An amphibious squid-like creature with eight tentacles. Cannot wear most types of armour (only hats), but can wear eight rings and is at home in water.
*'''[[Ogre]]''' (Og): Enormous and bloodthirsty, its interests include hitting things and throwing things.
*'''[[Spriggan]]''' (Sp): A very small fairy-like humanoid. They move swiftly and have high aptitudes for many schools of magic, but cannot eat meat or wear most forms of armour.
*'''[[Tengu]]''' (Te): A somewhat fragile bird-like species with a beak, talons, and a propensity for violence, both physical and magical. They eventually learn to fly.
*'''[[Troll]]''' (Tr): Even larger and stronger than the ogre, with huge claws, incredible regeneration and a near-infinite hunger.
*'''[[Vampire]]''' (Vp): A sneaky, undead humanoid which can become alive by drinking fresh blood. Exceptional at disabling foes, then stabbing them in the back.
*'''[[Vine Stalker]]''' (VS): A fragile creature made of vines. They have a powerful bite attack and regenerate swiftly.

Spider Form (spell)

2016-11-28T15:44:35Z

Medar: Update to 0.19. Use template. Restructure a bit.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Spider Form''' is level 3 [[Transmutations|Transmutation]] spell that transforms the user into a spider-like creature.

==Transformation==
This transformation grants the following:

'''Pros:'''
*A [[venom]]-branded [[Unarmed Combat|unarmed]] attack with base damage 5 and a [[to hit]] bonus
*A +5 bonus to [[dexterity]]
*Tiny [[size]] (improves [[EV]])
*Immunity to [[web]]s

'''Cons:'''
*Melds all equipment except jewellery
*Cannot throw weapons or use wands
*Natural [[AC]] is 2
*-10% to [[spell success]]
*Vulnerability to [[poison]]. Can be negated with a source of [[poison resistance]], but sources do not stack.

The duration of the transformation is ''8 + 2d<power>'' turns, capped at 60.

[[Mummies]] and [[ghouls]] cannot memorize this spell. [[Vampires]] can memorize this spell, but cannot cast it if they are satiated or less.

[[The Shining One]] doesn't mind if you cast this spell, but you will incur penance if you poison a sentient, non-evil monster. Using it against animals, undead, or demons works just fine (though the latter two are immune to poison).

==Strategy==
This spell is quite useful for low-level [[Transmuter]]s, as it is fairly easy to cast and can be made reliably castable with only 1 or 2 levels in [[Poison Magic]] (which can be used for other low-level spells like [[Sting]] or [[Cure Poison]]). Although the base damage is low, most monsters you encounter early in the dungeon are not poison resistant. Monsters will also have a harder time hitting you because of the evasion bonuses, but be aware that when they ''do'' manage to land a hit, you'll have very low [[AC]] to reduce it. [[Octopode]] and [[felid]] transmuters won't have to worry about the AC reduction, as their natural AC is already extremely low.

Be careful about using this spell around enemies with poisonous attacks, as it is impossible to have poison resistance while in Spider Form (and you'll be vulnerable to poison unless you've found a source of rPois). For poisonous enemies, consider upgrading to [[Ice Form]] later, if your skill progression makes it worthwhile. Other hazards to watch out for are high-accuracy effects that target AC, such as [[Fireball]] or [[Airstrike]].

Prior to [[0.15]], Spider Form provided above-average speed and the ability to cling to walls.

Ignite Poison

2016-11-28T15:22:39Z

Medar: Set version to 0.19. Use template. Add info. Restructure.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Ignite Poison''' is a level 3 [[Fire Magic|Fire]]/[[Transmutations|Transmutation]]/[[Poison Magic|Poison]] spell which causes all nearby [[poisoned]] creatures and poisonous [[cloud]]s to burst into flames.

==Effect==
All poison and mephitic clouds in caster's [[line of sight]] are replaced with flame clouds. All poisoned monsters in line of sight take damage and lose their poisoned status. Higher [[spell power]] may increase the duration of the flame clouds and the damage taken by poisoned creatures.

Poisoned creatures take direct damage according to how many poison stacks they have, dealing approximately 200%-300% of the potential poison damage immediately, depending on spell power.

Duration of the flame clouds is ''3 + (1d(20 + <power>) - 1) / 10'' turns.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-damage.cc|1562}}</ref>

==Strategy==
Ignite Poison deals unavoidable heavy fire damage to every poisoned creature in sight. Combine it with ways of applying poison to multiple enemies at once, such as [[Olgreb's Toxic Radiance]] or [[Poisonous Cloud]], for a powerful crowd-clearing tool.

*Ignite Poison works great when used together with [[Mephitic Cloud]]; the noxious clouds generated by the former spell turn into clouds of fire. First confuse them with Mephitic Cloud, possibly casting it a few times to cover a larger area, then (once the monsters are confused) cast Ignite Poison and let the poor guys stumble through the flames. Casting Ignite Poison after casting [[Poisonous Cloud]] creates the "fire version" of [[Freezing Cloud]].

*Also note that monsters which are immune to Mephitic Cloud will happily walk through its noxious clouds to reach you. If you cast Ignite Poison at the right moment you can blast them as well.

==History==
Prior to [[0.18]], Salamander mystics had [[Localized Ignite Poison]] in their spellset.

Prior to [[0.17]], Ignite Poison was a level-5 spell, but affected monsters with poison-branded attacks, chunks, and potions of poison. It did not use the Poison Magic school.

Ignite Poison used to be an amazingly painful way to eliminate poison from one's own system, but as of [[0.8]] it no longer affects the caster or their inventory.

Sticks to Snakes

2016-11-28T15:06:43Z

Medar: Set version to 0.19. Use template. Add info. Restructure.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Sticks to Snakes''' is a level 2 [[Transmutations|Transmutation]] spell which turns [[arrow]]s from inventory into [[list of snakes|snake]]s.

==Effect==
Turns arrows into allied snakes. Higher [[spell power]] may increase the number of creatures created, create stronger snakes and increase their duration. One arrow from inventory is consumed for each snake created.

Possible monsters are:
:{{monsterlink|Ball python}}
:{{monsterlink|Adder}}
:{{monsterlink|Water moccasin}}

These snakes are not real summons, and can not be [[abjuration|abjured]]. They will time out after a while though.

Number of snakes created is ''1 + (1d<power> - 1) / 15'', capped at 7.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|171}}</ref> But of course limited to the amount of arrows in the inventory.

[[Summonings#Duration|Duration class]] ranges from 3 (around 27 turns) to 5 (around 81 turns). The formula is ''3 + (1d<power> - 1) / 20'', capped at 5.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|172}}</ref>

==Tips & Tricks==
* Inscribe wanted ammo with !D to prevent accidentally turning it into a snake.

==History==
Prior to [[0.17]], Sticks to Snakes required arrows to be wielded.

Prior to [[0.15]], Transmutations skill was used instead of spell power for some formulas.

Prior to [[0.14]], this spell worked on melee weapons, like [[club]]s and [[polearm]]s and could create [[black mamba]]s or even [[anaconda]]s, making it much more useful for non-felids.

Summon Forest

Medar: Set version to 0.19. Use template. Add info.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Summon Forest''' is a level 5 [[Summonings|Summoning]]/[[Translocations|Translocation]] spell that summons a section of forest with a friendly [[dryad]].

==Effect==
Some nearby rock [[wall]]s are converted to [[tree]]s. Additionally some unoccupied floor tiles will have trees placed on them (in a way that doesn't break connectivity). Sometimes a pond is created as well. Finally a dryad is summoned, who instantly casts [[Awaken Forest]].

Higher [[spell power]] may increase the duration and density of the forest, and will make the dryad stronger.

The spell may only be cast in an open area. At least one square adjacent to the caster must not have any adjacent solid features.

Dryad's [[hit dice]] is ''5 + <power> / 18'', randomly rounded.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1473}}</ref>

The duration of the spell ranges from ''12 + <power> / 10'' turns to ''200 + <power> * 1.5 / 10'' turns.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1409}}</ref> The dryad has the same duration.

==Strategy==
*The dryad itself isn't very impressive, but the forest and the snaplasher vines will deal good damage to any monster in the area while the dryad is alive. Note that she has no resistances and is vulnerable to fire. This spell works well with other summons which delay the enemy, while the forest deals damage.
*If you really need to dig a space and lack better methods, you can hope that it'll turn into a tree and then burn it.

==History==
Summon Forest was added in [[0.14]].

Summon Butterflies

2016-11-28T14:08:25Z

Medar: /* History */

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

[[Summon Butterflies]] is a level 1 [[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons multiple [[butterfly|butterflies]].

==Effect==
A kaleidoscope of butterflies is created around the caster. Higher [[spell power]] may result in more butterflies.

Number of summons is ''2 + 1d3 + (1d<power> - 1) / 10'', capped at 8.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|98}}</ref>

Duration of the summons is around 27 turns. It is not affected by spell power.

There is a cap on how many creatures created by this spell you can have at the same time. Summoning more than 8 creatures means that the older ones will time out in two or three turns.

==Strategy==
*Summon Butterflies is amazing for making escapes, despite the wimpy name. The butterflies that will block your enemies' movement and ranged attacks. At low power it only summons a few, but at high power it can surround you completely to a considerable radius.
*The butterflies have no attack. They will fly off in random directions at high speed, making them good for detecting magic [[trap]]s, but they will not trigger weapon traps or shafts.
*Note that [[Elyvilon]] doesn't like it when your allies die. A cloud of friendly butterflies being killed by a fireball can quickly ruin your good standing.

==Tips & tricks==
*If you know spells like [[Conjure Flame]] of [[Freezing Cloud]], you can use Summon Butterflies to keep you enemies on top of the clouds for as long as you want.
*For obvious reasons, this spell is also very useful for characters with smite-targeted spells, like [[Lee's Rapid Deconstruction]].

==History==
In [[0.14]] maximum summons per single cast was lowered.

Prior to [[0.8]] the spell always summoned at least 15 butterflies, regardless of spell power.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Malign Gateway''' is a level 7 [[Summonings|Summoning]]/[[Translocations|Translocation]] spell which summons a portal through which an [[eldritch tentacle]] emerges.

==Effect==
Opens a up a gateway for eldritch tentacle in a random nearby location with floor or shallow water and no adjacent walls. Higher [[spell power]] makes the tentacle remain friendly longer.

It takes ''1 + 1d3'' turns before a tentacle emerges from the gateway.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1317}}</ref> The tentacle stays friendly for ''(6d<power> - 6) / 6 - (1d4 - 1)'' turns<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|timed_effects.cc|1641}}</ref>, or until the gateway is closed and the tentacle is severed.

There can only be one such portal open at a time. This means that if you cast the spell, enemies who know the spell will be unable to cast it until yours closes (and vice versa).

==Strategy==
*Eldritch tentacles are powerful and fast, capable of hitting the average monster for up to 70 HP of [[chaos|chaotic]] damage per attack and inflicting all manner of extra effects with each hit.
*Although extremely powerful, the tentacle is not summoned instantaneously. Several turns will pass before the tentacle emerges from the portal. Plan accordingly, and use other summoned allies in the meantime.
*This spell requires an open area to cast. Attempts to cast in a narrow corridor will fail.
*The tentacle can attack outside of the player's [[line of sight]].
*Eldritch tentacles cannot be hasted or abjured.

==History==
*Prior to [[0.17]], casting this spell had a 20% chance of causing 1d3 points of temporary [[Intelligence]] damage.
*Malign Gateway was added in [[0.8]].

==Effect==
When cast a dragon's call (Dragoncall) status is gained during which dragons are summoned adjacent to hostile targets in your [[line of sight]]. Higher [[spell power]] may increase the duration of the spell (not the summons) and result in stronger dragons.

Possible summons:
:{{monsterlink|Fire dragon}}
:{{monsterlink|Ice dragon}}
:{{monsterlink|Shadow dragon}}
:{{monsterlink|Storm dragon}}
:{{monsterlink|Iron dragon}}
:{{monsterlink|Quicksilver dragon}}

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Haunt''' is a level 7 [[Necromancy]]/[[Summonings|Summoning]] spell, which uses [[smite]]-targeting to summon high level phantasms near an enemy.

==Effect==
Between 2 to 6 monster are summoned around the target. Higher [[spell power]] may increase the number of summons. Unlike other summoning spells, Haunt cannot be cast without a valid hostile target.

The composition of the horde is random with the following weightings:<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|2253}}</ref>
:{{monsterlink|Wraith}} (41.67% chance)
:{{monsterlink|Freezing wraith}} (16.67%)
:{{monsterlink|Phantasmal warrior}} (16.67%)
:{{monsterlink|Shadow wraith}} (8.33%)
:{{monsterlink|Phantom}} (8.33%)
:{{monsterlink|Hungry ghost}} (8.33%)

The summoned ghosts will only attack the target selected by the caster, ignoring player commands. When the haunt target dies, the remaining monsters will expire within a few turns, regardless of how much duration was otherwise remaining (though they will be free to attack other targets during this short window).

Unless the target dies the summons have duration of around 27 turns. This does not depend on the spell power.

The amount of creatures you can summon with this spell is not capped.

If you worship a [[good god]], all the creatures summoned will be hostile.

==Strategy==
*Haunt is one of the better spells for dealing with monsters lacking [[negative energy resistance]].

==Monster Version==
Monster version of the spell is almost identical to the player version. Number of summons is 2 to 3, and does not depend on the spell power.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|mon-cast.cc|4466}}</ref>

[[Summonings#Duration|Duration class]] of the summons ranges from 2 (around 18 turns) to 6 (around 171 turns), based on the strength of the caster.

{{monsters with spell}}

==History==
Prior to [[0.17]] this spell inflicted [[sickness]] upon the caster.

Prior to [[0.13]] this spell could summon [[flayed ghost]]s, the ghosts summoned by haunt could attack other targets and it could be cast on friendly targets.

Prior to [[0.8]] the duration of summons created was longer.

Prior to [[0.7]] the spell level was 6.

In [[0.6]] Haunt was added.

Summon Horrible Things

Medar: /* Monster Version */ Mention duration.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Summon Horrible Things''' is a level 8 [[Summonings|Summoning]] spell that summons a horde of [[large abomination]]s and [[tentacled monstrosity|tentacled monstrosities]].

Players colloquially refer to this spell as '''XXX'''.

==Effect==
When cast 2 to 6 large abominations and 0 to 2 tentacled monstrosities are summoned. There is a chance for the caster to lose [[intelligence]]. Higher [[spell power]] may increase the number of the creatures.

Number of large abominations summoned is ''1 + 1d3'' plus spell power in 200 chance for an extra one.

There is ''1 - 121 / <power>'' chance for two tentacled monstrosities, and if that fails an independent ''1 - 51 / <power>'' chance for one monstrosity. If no monstrosities were created, one extra abomination is created instead.

Duration of the summons is around 27 turns, this does not depend on the spell power.

There is a 20% chance that the caster loses one point of intelligence.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1348}}</ref>

[[Summonings#Duration|Duration class]] of the summons ranges from 2 (around 18 turns) to 6 (around 171 turns), based on the strength of the caster.

[[Summon Lightning Spire]] is a level 4 [[Air Magic|Air]]/[[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons a [[lightning spire]].

==Effect==
An immobile lightning spire that shoots bolts of electricity will be placed the targetted location, within two square radius of the caster. The location must be empty, and not [[deep water]] or [[lava]]. Higher [[spell power]] makes the spire more powerful.

[[Hit dice]] of the lightning spire is ''<power> / 10'' (but at least 1).<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|972}}</ref>

The construct lasts for around 18 turns, regardless of the spell power.

==Strategy==
*If positioned correctly, lightning spire can hit [[doublezap]]s on monsters.
*The spire will avoid shooting allies, including you, unless they are electricity resistant. So make sure to position yourself and your allies in a way that allows the spire to remain effective.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Haunt''' is a level 7 [[Necromancy]]/[[Summonings|Summoning]] spell, which uses [[smite]]-targeting to summon high level phantasms near an enemy.

==Effect==
Between 2 to 6 monster are summoned around the target. Higher [[spell power]] may increase the number of summons. Unlike other summoning spells, Haunt cannot be cast without a valid hostile target.

The composition of the horde is random with the following weightings:<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|2253}}</ref>
:{{monsterlink|Wraith}} (41.67% chance)
:{{monsterlink|Freezing wraith}} (16.67%)

:{{monsterlink|Shadow wraith}} (8.33%)
:{{monsterlink|Phantom}} (8.33%)
:{{monsterlink|Hungry ghost}} (8.33%)

The summoned ghosts will only attack the target selected by the caster, ignoring player commands. When the haunt target dies, the remaining monsters will expire within a few turns, regardless of how much duration was otherwise remaining (though they will be free to attack other targets during this short window).

Unless the target dies the summons have duration of around 27 turns. This does not depend on the spell power.

The amount of creatures you can summon with this spell is not capped.

If you worship a [[good god]], all the creatures summoned will be hostile.

==Strategy==
*Haunt is one of the better spells for dealing with monsters lacking [[negative energy resistance]].

==Monster Version==
Monster version of the spell is almost identical to the player version. Number of summons is 2 to 3, and does not depend on the spell power.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|mon-cast.cc|4466}}</ref>

Medar: HD -> hit dice

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Monstrous Menagerie''' is a level 7 [[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons an exotic creature or a pack of [[Harpy|Harpies]].

==Effect==
One beast or up to three harpies are summoned. Higher [[spell power]] gives a chance of a [[Sphinx]], boosts the strength of the creature(s) and increases the number of Harpies summoned.

Possible summons:
*{{monsterlink|Harpy}}
*{{monsterlink|Manticore}}
*{{monsterlink|Lindwurm}}
*{{monsterlink|Sphinx}}

There is a spell power dependent chance for a [[Sphinx]], ''(1 - 61 / <power>) / 2''<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|272}}</ref>. If Sphinx wasn't summoned there is an equal chance of Harpies, a Manticore or a Lindwurm. For [[Dithmenos]] worshippers Lindwurm is replaced by a Manticore.

There are two chances for an additional Harpy. One is ''<power> in 80'', and the other is ''<power> - 75 in 100''.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|280}}</ref>

Summoned monsters gain 0 to 6 additional [[hit dice]] based on spell power. The formula is ''(<power> - 50) / 25'', randomly rounded to an integer.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|289}}</ref>

Duration of the summons is around 36 turns, it does not depend on the spell power.

==Monster Version==
The monster version functions like the player version, except no hit dice bonus is given to the summoned creatures.

{{monsters with spell}}

==History==
In [[0.18]] the spell level was increased from 6 to 7.

Hit dice

2016-11-24T11:46:01Z

Medar: Mark as unknown version.

{{version}}
''HD redirects here. For the long-gone player race, see [[Hill Dwarf]]''

'''Hit dice''' (or '''HD''') is roughly equivalent to a monster's level. It is ''not'' the same as hit points. [[Hit dice]] affects monster's magic resistance, spellpower, experience value, etc. Is essentially the monster's experience level. Affects what a monster polymorphs into, and whether it will be affected by things like mephitic cloud and confusing touch.

Monster melee [[to hit]] is 18+HD*(1.5 or 2.5). The former for non-fighters, the latter for fighters. Beam to hit is 12*HD.

As some examples: [[hobgoblin]]s and other D:1 monsters have 1 HD, [[ogre (monster)|ogre]]s have 5, [[ancient lich]]es have 27, [[Cerebov]] only has 21, despite his fearsome spells. The highest-HD monsters are [[orb of fire|orbs of fire]] at 30: that is why they are so damaging with their fire conjurations.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

[[Summon Ice Beast]] is a level 4 [[Ice Magic|Ice]]/[[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons an [[ice beast]] to attack your foes.

==Effect==
Single ice beast is summoned. Higher [[spell power]] increases the strength of the ice beast, and may result in longer duration.

The [[hit dice]] of the summoned ice beast is ''3 + <power> / 13'', randomly rounded.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|257}}</ref>

[[Summonings#Duration|Duration class]] ranges from 2 (around 18 turns) to 4 (around 36 turns). The formula is ''2 + (1d<power> - 1) / 4'' (capped at 4).<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|253}}</ref>

==Strategy==
Ice Beasts are effective for the early and mid game because they deal decent cold damage and have a long duration. They can traverse [[deep water]] easily, thus they're great in watery environments like the [[Shoals]] or the [[Swamp]].

==Monster Version==
Monster version of the spell creates standard ice beasts without altered hit dice. The summon also has slightly longer duration of around 81 turns.

==Effect==

The [[hit dice]] of the mana viper is ''5 + <power> / 12'', randomly rounded. In this case [[hit points]] are not increased based on the hit dice.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|593}}</ref>

Duration of the summon is around 18 turns, it does not depend on the spell power.

==Strategy==
This is a moderately durable creature with a decent melee attack, but it shines when used against enemy casters; its bite is [[antimagic]] [[brand]]ed, giving its victim a significant chance of failing any spells they attempt to cast.

==Monster Version==
Creates multiple mana vipers based on the spell power, their hit dice is not adjusted. Duration is the same as in the player version.

Call Imp

Medar: Add monster version section.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Call Imp''' is a level 2 [[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons an imp.

==Effect==
Summons a single friendly imp. Higher [[spell power]] can result in a better imp and more duration.

Possible summons:
:{{monsterlink|Crimson imp}} - [[Blink]]s, [[regeneration|regenerates]] quickly
:{{monsterlink|White imp}} - Deals melee and ranged [[cold]] damage
:{{monsterlink|Shadow imp}} - Casts [[Pain]], [[see invisible|sees invisible]]
:{{monsterlink|Iron imp}} - Strong but slow, multi-resistant

There is always 27.8% chance of a White imp. With increase in spell power the probability of a Crimson imp decreases and the probability of getting Shadow or Iron imp increases. It's only possible to get a Shadow or Iron imp once spell power reaches 47.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1016}}</ref>

[[Summonings#Duration|Duration class]] ranges from 2 (around 18 turns) to 6 (around 171 turns). The formula is ''2 + (1d<power> - 1) / 4'' (capped at 6).<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1053}}</ref>

==Strategy==
Call Imp is a versatile and powerful spell that is also cheap and easy to cast. It can be spammed as early as D:2 to quickly defeat early threats such as uniques, [[ogre (monster)|ogre]]s, and [[worm]]s. You only get one imp per cast, but they can be any of four types with varied and useful abilities.

Standard [[crimson imp]]s are difficult to kill. [[White imp]]s are useful for slowing cold-blooded foes, and have strong distance attacks. [[Shadow imp]]s can see invisible creatures like [[orc wizard]]s and can hit things with [[negative energy]]. [[Iron imp]]s are slow, but hit as hard as [[war dog]]s and are tough to take down.

==Monster Version==
Works much like the player version. Odds for different imps are fixed at 44.4% [[crimson imp]], 22.2% [[shadow imp]], 22.2% [[white imp]] and 11.1% [[iron imp]].<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|mon-cast.cc|6024}}</ref>

==History==
Prior to [[0.12]], summoned [[shadow imp]]s could give you permanent undead allies by casting [[Animate Dead]], allowing characters without [[Necromancy]] to create undead armies.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Summon Small Mammal''' is a [[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons one weak monster. Summoners start with this spell memorized.

==Effect==
One small mammal is summoned. Higher [[spell power]] can result in a stronger mammal.

Possible summons:
:{{monsterlink|Rat}} - Low damage and fragile with no redeeming features.
:{{monsterlink|Bat}} - Extremely fast and evasive but does virtually no damage.
:{{monsterlink|Quokka}} - Decent damage and HP. Good all-round.

There is ''1 - 10 / <power>'' chance of a quokka. If quokka was not summoned, there is an equal chance for either a rat or a bat.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|121}}</ref>

Duration of the summon is around 27 turns, it does not depend on the spell power.

==Strategy==
*Summon Small Mammal is only a level 1 spell, but it stays useful for a long time. Packs of mammals can quite handily defeat most normal threats in the dungeon up until the [[Ecumenical Temple]]. Even after the spell loses its killing power, it is still a cheap and useful alternative to [[Summon Butterflies]] for escape if you haven't found that yet.

==Monster Version==
Single cast will summon 1 to 3 creatures, with duration of around 81 turns. Each summoned creature has 33% chance of being a bat, otherwise it will be either a rat, a [[river rat]] or a quokka with equal chances.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|mon-cast.cc|5896}}</ref>

{{monsters with spell}}

==History==
Prior to [[0.14]], this spell could also summon [[grey rat]]s, and had a summon cap of three.

Prior to [[0.13]], this spell could summon multiple creatures, and was known as 'Summon Small Mammals'.

Prior to [[0.12]], a more powerful version of the spell known as [[Vampire Summon]] was used by [[vampire (monster)|vampires]], [[vampire knight]]s, and [[deep elf summoner]]s. It summoned 3-5 mammals (with [[orange rat]]s in place of quokkas).

Prior to to [[0.4.3]], this spell was affectionately called 'Spammals' for its easy ability to flood your surroundings with allied monsters. The spell was nerfed somewhat for balance reasons. In [[0.6]], it was [[nerf]]ed again, limiting the effect to at most two summoned creatures, and [[green rat]]s and [[orange rat]]s were removed from the spell's possible results.

Call Canine Familiar

Medar: /* Effect */ Tweak formatting.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Call Canine Familiar''' is a level 3 [[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons a canine monster.

==Effect==
One canine monster is summoned. Higher [[spell power]] results in a better canine and more duration.

Possible summons are:
:{{monsterlink|Hound}}
:{{monsterlink|Wolf}}
:{{monsterlink|Warg}}

To pick the monster, random value in range of power ± 10 is taken. If this value is at least 60 a Warg is summoned, if at least 40 a Wolf is summoned and otherwise a Hound is summoned.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|228}}</ref>

[[Summonings#Duration|Duration class]] ranges from 2 (around 18 turns) to 6 (around 171 turns). The formula is ''2 + (1d<power> - 1) / 4'' (capped at 6).<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|242}}</ref>

==Strategy==
*[[Call Imp]] may produce more interesting allies than Call Canine Familiar, but they're far less reliable; the tactical usefulness of a [[crimson imp]] or [[iron imp]] is far less guaranteed than that of a fast monster that bites fairly hard. That doesn't mean you should stop using it, however; Call Canine Familiar has a summon cap of only 1, so there's little reason not to use both together.
*Hounds are certainly helpful, but this spell really starts to shine when you manage to get your spell power high enough that you can reliably summon wolves. Eventually reaching warg spell power levels will help further, but that increase in effectiveness is significantly less dramatic.

==History==
Prior to [[0.14]], this spell could also summon [[jackal]]s and its summon cap was 3.

Possible summons:
*{{monsterlink|Harpy}}
*{{monsterlink|Manticore}}
*{{monsterlink|Lindwurm}}
*{{monsterlink|Sphinx}}

There is a spell power dependent chance for a [[Sphinx]], ''(1 - 61 / <power>) / 2''<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|272}}</ref>. If Sphinx wasn't summoned there is an equal chance of Harpies, a Manticore or a Lindwurm. For [[Dithmenos]] worshippers Lindwurm is replaced by a Manticore.

There are two chances for an additional Harpy. One is ''<power> in 80'', and the other is ''<power> - 75 in 100''.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|280}}</ref>

Summoned monsters gain 0 to 6 additional [[HD]] based on spell power. The formula is ''(<power> - 50) / 25'', randomly rounded to an integer.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|289}}</ref>

Duration of the summons is around 36 turns, it does not depend on the spell power.

==Monster Version==
The monster version functions like the player version, except no HD bonus is given to the summoned creatures.

{{monsters with spell}}

==History==
In [[0.18]] the spell level was increased from 6 to 7.

In [[0.16]] the spell got its summon cap reduced by one.

Call Imp

2016-11-23T12:59:22Z

Medar: Set version to 0.19. Use template. Restructure, add formula, add history entry.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Call Imp''' is a level 2 [[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons an imp.

==Effect==
Summons a single friendly imp. Higher [[spell power]] can result in a better imp and more duration.

Possible summons:
*{{monsterlink|Crimson imp}} - [[Blink]]s, [[regeneration|regenerates]] quickly
*{{monsterlink|White imp}} - Deals melee and ranged [[cold]] damage
*{{monsterlink|Shadow imp}} - Casts [[Pain]], [[see invisible|sees invisible]]
*{{monsterlink|Iron imp}} - Strong but slow, multi-resistant

There is always 27.8% chance of a White imp. With increase in spell power the probability of a Crimson imp decreases and the probability of getting Shadow or Iron imp increases. It's only possible to get a Shadow or Iron imp once spell power reaches 47.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1016}}</ref>

[[Summonings#Duration|Duration class]] ranges from 2 (around 18 turns) to 6 (around 171 turns). The formula is ''2 + (1d<power> - 1) / 4'' (capped at 6).<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|1053}}</ref>

==Strategy==
Call Imp is a versatile and powerful spell that is also cheap and easy to cast. It can be spammed as early as D:2 to quickly defeat early threats such as uniques, [[ogre (monster)|ogre]]s, and [[worm]]s. You only get one imp per cast, but they can be any of four types with varied and useful abilities.

Standard [[crimson imp]]s are difficult to kill. [[White imp]]s are useful for slowing cold-blooded foes, and have strong distance attacks. [[Shadow imp]]s can see invisible creatures like [[orc wizard]]s and can hit things with [[negative energy]]. [[Iron imp]]s are slow, but hit as hard as [[war dog]]s and are tough to take down.

==History==
Prior to [[0.12]], summoned [[shadow imp]]s could give you permanent undead allies by casting [[Animate Dead]], allowing characters without [[Necromancy]] to create undead armies.

Prior to [[0.7]], was level 3 spell and could not summon Iron imps.

Summonings

2016-11-23T12:37:57Z

Medar: /* Summoning Limits */ Split to two sections.

{{version017}}
'''Summonings''' is a magical skill that governs your ability at bringing forth monsters and other entities to fight for you (though they may arrive hostile when called into existence by unskilled practitioners). These summoned monsters function much like real monsters, with the following exceptions:
*They are worth no experience or piety, and leave nothing behind when slain. They cannot be targeted by [[Vampiric Draining]] or [[Inner Flame]].
*They have difficulty attacking targets with [[warding]] in melee. Spells and ranged attacks are unaffected.
*They eventually "time out" regardless of their HP, poofing out out of existence in a cloud of smoke. The spells [[Abjuration]] and [[Aura of Abjuration]] greatly shorten the time they have remaining, often causing them to cease to exist immediately. Summoned monsters will be immediately unsummoned on the death of the summoner.
*They will not follow you up or down [[stairs]]. This allows you to flee hostile summoned units and return after sufficient time has passed. Your own summoned allies will disappear immediately when you change floors.
*They will not attack monsters outside of the player's [[line of sight]].

Note that there is one spell in this school of magic that does not create summoned monsters: [[eldritch tentacle]]s, which can be created with the [[Malign Gateway]] spell, cannot be abjured and will fight outside of the player's line of sight.

{{skill aptitudes}}

{{spell table by level|Summoning}}

==Sources==
{{spell sources|Summoning|Book of Beasts,Book of Callings,Book of Summonings,Grand Grimoire}}

==Duration==
Summoned monsters are generated with a duration between 1 and 6. This value roughly corresponds to the following amount in turns:

# 90 [[aut]] (arbitrary units of time; 10 aut = 1 "turn")
# 180 aut
# 270 aut
# 360 aut
# 810 aut
# 1710 aut

Some Summonings spells have a fixed duration. The other spells will increase monster duration with spell power.

==Summoning Limits==
Most Summonings spells also have a fixed cap on how many monsters of that type you can sustain at any one time. Exceeding that cap by casting the spell too often will cause the oldest monsters to time out almost immediately.

* - Not a Summonings spell, but operates similarly.
** - Band members don't count towards the cap.
*** - Can't cast again until duration has expired.
**** - Only one Malign Gateway can exist in the dungeon at time, regardless of who created it.

===Non-standard summoning===
These non-standard methods for summoning allies have no cap on the number of units you can have out at once, but their costs are often prohibitive:

;'''Source : Duration'''
:[[Trog#Given_Abilities | Brothers in Arms]] : 2-6
:[[TSO#Given_Abilities | Summon Divine Warrior]] : 2-6
:[[Qazlal#Given_Abilities | Elemental Force]]: 1
:[[Scroll of summoning]] : Monster's HD dependent, but better than the spell

==History==
Prior to [[0.14]], summoned creatures could exist even after their summoner was defeated, leading to much more cautious behavior around certain enemy summoners. Many enemy summoners were also much more fragile. 0.14 also massively overhauled the Summonings spell list; Summon Lightning Spire, Summon Guardian Golem, Summon Forest, Summon Mana Viper, Monstrous Menagerie, Aura of Abjuration, Forceful Dismissal, and Spellforged Servitor were all added, replacing [[Summon Scorpions]], [[Summon Ugly Thing]], [[Mass Abjuration]], [[Demonic Horde]], and [[Summon Dragon]].

Prior to [[0.13]], Summonings spells had no limit on how many monsters you could summon at a time, barring MP restrictions. This led to players summoning hordes of monsters at all times, rendering them nearly untouchable by most monsters and leading to extremely dull optimal gameplay.

Prior to [[0.12]] summoned monsters could attack monsters outside of the player's [[line of sight]], and you could not recall flying monsters over [[lava]] or [[deep water]].

Call Canine Familiar

2016-11-23T12:36:46Z

Medar: Set version to 0.19. Use template. Restructure and add formulas.

{{version|0.19}}
{{spell info}}

'''Call Canine Familiar''' is a level 3 [[Summonings|Summoning]] spell which summons a canine monster.

==Effect==
One canine monster is summoned. Higher [[spell power]] results in a better canine and more duration.

Possible summons are:
*{{monsterlink|Hound}}
*{{monsterlink|Wolf}}
*{{monsterlink|Warg}}

To pick the monster, random value in range of power ± 10 is taken. If this value is at least 60 a Warg is summoned, if at least 40 a Wolf is summoned and otherwise a Hound is summoned.<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|228}}</ref>

[[Summonings#Duration|Duration class]] ranges from 2 (around 18 turns) to 6 (around 171 turns). The formula is ''2 + (1d<power> - 1) / 4'' (capped at 6).<ref>{{source ref|0.19.0|spl-summoning.cc|242}}</ref>

==Strategy==
*[[Call Imp]] may produce more interesting allies than Call Canine Familiar, but they're far less reliable; the tactical usefulness of a [[crimson imp]] or [[iron imp]] is far less guaranteed than that of a fast monster that bites fairly hard. That doesn't mean you should stop using it, however; Call Canine Familiar has a summon cap of only 1, so there's little reason not to use both together.
*Hounds are certainly helpful, but this spell really starts to shine when you manage to get your spell power high enough that you can reliably summon wolves. Eventually reaching warg spell power levels will help further, but that increase in effectiveness is significantly less dramatic.

==History==
Prior to [[0.14]], this spell could also summon [[jackal]]s and its summon cap was 3.
