  • The Field Guide to Summoned Monsters
    The Field Guide To Summoned Monsters Do you like the idea of playing a summoner in D&D 3.5, but get sick of summoning celestial or fiendish farm animals? Do you crave something more interesting and exotic? There’s good news for you; besides the list of legal summons in spell descriptions in the Player’s Handbook, there are a variety of other monsters that can be summoned by the various Summon Monster spells. This guide covers the additions specifically noted as legal in WotC published books, not including Dragon Magazine, third party products, or arbitrary substitution schemes. In the Monster Manual I and Monster Manual II there are no additional creatures listed as being summonable using summon monster . However, in Monster Manual III-V, Fiend Folio, the Fiendish Codexes, and some other scattered sources there are a number of monsters noted specifically as being summonable with Summon Monster spells. This guide starts talks in depth about notable aspects of all these additional summonable monsters and recommends the best summons for each level. Where you have to make a choice, I make sure to point out which you should probably take. This guide is informed by my playing a malconvoker up to level 14 and exercising the heck out of all these summons. Options in blue are the best all-around options for a given level of summoning spell. Options that are struck through are the ones you don’t want when you have to choose between two monsters to have on your summoning list. Special Notes Many characters have their summoning choices constrained by their alignment since summon spells count as being aligned spells according to their target.
