Version 0.14: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.


Type Scroll
Name Scroll of summoning
Icon Scroll of summoning.png
This scroll calls forth several creatures woven from shadow into the shapes of those beings found within the reader's immediate vicinity.

Reading a scroll of summoning will instantly summon a collection of allied monsters appropriate to the floor you are currently on, similar to the effects of casting Shadow Creatures 2d2 times but with greater duration than the actual spell. These reinforcements can be extremely variable in quality, but the scroll is capable of bringing an immense amount of support to bear instantly and for no cost beyond the scroll itself.

These scrolls are extremely rare, and can be used by sufficiently intelligent enemies against you.

History
