  ====== Summoning Spells ======
- Summoning is one of the wizardry disciplines of spellcasting.  Most summoning spells belong to the Paths of Summoning or Creation, but a few belong to other Paths.  The primary use of these spells is to summon monsters to attack your enemies, but there are also spells for summoning walls, food, and other useful items.  The Summoner class is naturally the best at mastering this family of spells.  Worshippers of Mostrai will have a difficult time gaining Summoning skill points, as they will be unable to cast any Summoning spells until increasing their skill level, which can only be done by forming a party with a skilled summoner and sharing XP.

- Summoning monsters to fight for you can help you to stay safe against dangerous enemies, since the caster can stay out of the line of fire while the monsters do the work.  The caster receives all XP gained from enemies killed by his pets.
+ The summoning skill is acquired by learning the skill from a scroll (the summoner class starts with it) or by having a talisman of summoning.

+ ===== Notes =====
+   *I'm not sure what Magehound does, because it isn't mentioned on the Crossfire list and its archetype doesn't have any notes.
+   * I'm not sure exactly how Summon Pet Monster decides which monsters to summon.  I'd like to have a table of what's summoned depending on level and god there, if it's not too complicated.
