Summons a powerful exotic creature to the caster's aid: a manticore, a lindwurm, or, at high power, even a sphinx. Casting the spell at higher power also increases the strength of the beasts themselves.

Monstrous Menagerie is a level 7 Summoning spell which summons an exotic creature.

Effect

One beast is summoned. Higher spell power gives a chance of a Sphinx and boosts the strength of the creature.

Possible summons:

There is a spell power dependent chance for a Sphinx, (1 - 61 / <power>) / 2[1]. If Sphinx isn't summoned, there is an equal chance of a Manticore or a Lindwurm.

Summoned monsters gain from 0 to 6 additional hit dice based on spell power. The formula is (<power> - 50) / 25, randomly rounded to an integer.[2]

Duration of the summons is around 36 turns, it does not depend on the spell power. There is a summon limit of two.

Monster Version

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