 '''Summonings''' is a magical skill that governs your ability at bringing forth monsters and other entities to fight for you, though unskilled practitioners may summon a hostile [[nameless horror]] instead. [[Summon|Summoned monsters]] are very similar to regular monsters, though are temporary and unable to follow you through stairs.

 *Prior to [[0.28]], summons reduced your xp gain, but most summoning spells had much higher summon limits. [[Shadow Creatures]] is removed as a player castable spell, with a new level 6 spell [[Summon Cactus Giant]].

 *In [[0.26]], the last two utility spells were removed from this magic school: [[Aura of Abjuration]] and [[Recall]].
 *In [[0.25]], Summonings miscasts produce [[nameless horror]]s. Monsters summoned by the player dismiss if the player harms them or they would become hostile for some other reason, rather than attacking the player. Also, summoned monsters can get the [[Status_effects#Inner_Flame|inner flame status]] from the [[Inner Flame|spell]] and the [[scroll of immolation]].
