:Each [[Spells#Conjuration|conjuration]] spell belongs to one of five subschools. Conjurations transport creatures from another plane of existence to your plane (calling); create objects or effects on the spot (creation); heal (healing); bring manifestations of objects, creatures, or forms of energy to you (summoning); or transport creatures or objects over great distances (teleportation). Creatures you conjure usually- but not always- obey your commands. | :Each [[Spells#Conjuration|conjuration]] spell belongs to one of five subschools.

It must arrive in an open location on a surface capable of supporting it. | :A creature or object brought into being or transported to your location by a [[Spells#Conjuration|conjuration]] spell cannot appear inside another creature or object, nor can it appear floating in an empty space.

::*'''Creation:''' A creation spell manipulates matter to create an object or creature in the place the spellcaster designates. If the spell has a duration other than instantaneous, magic holds the creation together, and when the spell ends, the conjured creature or object vanishes without a trace. If the spell has an instantaneous duration, the created object or creature is merely assembled through magic. It lasts indefinitely and does not depend on magic for its existence. | ::*'''Creation:''' A creation spell manipulates matter to create an object or creature in the place the spellcaster designates.

::*'''Summoning:''' a summoning spell instantly brings a creature or object to a place you designate. When the spell ends or is dispelled, a summoned creature is instantly sent back to where it came from, but a summoned object is not sent back unless the spell description specifically indicates this. A summoned creature also goes away if it is killed or if its hit points drop to 0 or lower, but it is not really [[dead]] | |||
:::When the spell that summoned a creature ends and the creature disappears, all the spells it has cast expire. A summoned creature cannot use any innate summoning abilities it may have. | :::When the spell that summoned a creature ends and the creature disappears, all the spells it has cast expire.
