Summon Horrible Things is a level 8 Summoning spell that summons a horde of large abominations and 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. Higher spell power may increase the number of the creatures. Afterwards, the player has a 20% chance to (temporarily) lose one point of intelligence.[1] There is a summon limit of 8 horrible things.
Number of large abominations summoned is 1 + 1d3 plus spell power / 200 chance for an extra one.
There is a 1 - 121 / spell power chance for two tentacled monstrosities, and if that fails an independent 1 - 51 / spell 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.
