Update 7/26

Familiars and Animal Companions are taking a break...some things to work out or decide how we want to do a custom system.

Quick notes on summons: confident in function, but not in balancing.

Feedback is requested: are they useful but not overpowering when you get the spell? Does the spell remain useful until the next one becomes available?

Basic summon spells
Summons 1-7 summon specific creature by caster alignment. 8 is random greater elemental, 9 is random elder elemental.

Bonuses applied when not cast in combat for: Spell foci in conjuration; Druid, Ranger, Cleric with Animal Domain. Scaled system that produces a bonus between 1 and 10: this bonus is applied to summons stats, ac, saves. Summons will be created with a bonus to temporary hitpoints in some cases as well. Elemental Swarm is the exception for now...that'll take new code and new headaches.

Undead Creation
Pretty much any spell with dead somewhere in the title. Animates an undead creature raising its level to the caster's (limited by spell, Mummy Dust with no limit).

Bonuses applied when not cast in combat for: Spell foci in necromancy; many class features (i.e. Blackguard or Pale Master abilites). Bonuses as above adding Turn Resistance.

Planar Summons (Planar Binding/Ally series, Gate, Dragon Knight)
Summon by caster alignment.

Bonuses applied when not cast in combat for: Spell foci in conjuration; Cleric with Good/Evil Domain. Scaled system that produces a bonus between 1 and 10: this bonus is applied to summons stats, ac, saves; 3x this bonus added to summons spell resistance. Summons will be created with a bonus to temporary hitpoints in some cases as well.
