"Do not call up that which you cannot put down."
H.P. Lovecraft: The Case of Charles Dexter Ward
"Do not call up that which you cannot put on hold."
― Greg Hill and Kerry Wendell Thornley: Principia Discordia

The power to summon objects or entities. Sub-power of Summoning Manipulation. Opposite to Banishment.

Capabilities[]

Users can transport a person, creature, or object of choice by means of Basic Teleportation, Dimensional Travel, Portal Creation, or some other way. This may also result from a previous summoning contract, which creates a connection between the summon and summoner.

High-level users may not be bound by restrictions such as a contract and can summon anything they want, including powerful beings or "familiar spirits" and often require strong mystic connections to where these entities reside. Users can call upon fairies, angels, demons, or animal spirits, just to name a few.

The summoning can backfire, however, leading to any number of misfortunes, such as the summoned person, creature, or item causing harm to the summoner.
