Summon Hydra is a level 7 Summoning spell which summons a friendly hydra.
Contents
Effect
A hydra with 4 to 12 heads is summoned. The number of heads depends on spell power, but it's quite rare to get more than 8. There is a summon limit of 2; additonal summons will cause the oldest to very quickly time out. The duration of the summon does not depend on the spell power and is always very short, around 9 turns.
The number of heads is (1d<power> - 1) / 6
, but at least 4 and at most 12. There is always an 83% chance that the number of heads is limited to 8.[1]
