Call Spells in AD&D

Home

Call spells are all in the school of conjuration/summoning, and may be in other schools. You have to be a caller to use these - even if you're a conjuration specialist, you can't.

Format:

Name of Summoned Monster: Spell points to use (Equivalent Spell Level)
School(s) other than Conjuration/Summoning (if applicable)
Other spell statistics (if applicable)

14 ||| 3d4 + level
 

Chocobo: 6 (2nd)

Area of effect: Special
The team (Moogle riding chocobo) appears and rides up to 40 yds straight in any one direction. All enemies within 5 ft either way of the chocobo are attacked.

Each target that is hit is paralyzed. They are allowed a saving throw, with a +3 bonus and a penalty equal to 1/3 the caster's level, rounded mathematically.
 

Mist: 11 (3rd)
Water
Casting time: 13 Range: 0
Area of effect: Cone - radius 20 ft, length 12 + level yds.
The mist dragon appears and creates a cone of damaging mist. It is about 10 degrees colder than room temperature (but it's temperature has nothing to do with damage.)
N/A ||| (3 + level)d3
 

Shiva: 14 (4th)
Invocation, Air
Casting time: 1 rd. Range: 10 + level yds
Area of effect: Cylinder - radius 15 ft, length 25 + (2 * level) ft

Ramuh: 16 (4th)
Invocation
Casting time: 1 rd. Range: 10 + level yds (start)
Area of effect: The bolts are as long as 5 yards * the number of d8s of damage thay carry.
Ramuh appears and creates several lightening bolts. The exact number is up to the caster, but can't exceed the caster's level, and can't be lower then 3.
The amount below is the total damage, the caster may assign as many dice as he wants to each bolt, but each bolt must carry at least 2d8 damage. The THAC0 below applies to creatures that are not wearing metal armor (any armor they do have, however, does not apply at all.) Creatures wearing armor with metal in it (at least as much as studded leather) are automatically hit.
7 ||| (level + 4)d8
Saving throw for half damage. People wearing chain mail or heavier metal armor recieve a -4 penalty.
 

Titan: 18 (4th)
Invocation, Earth
Casting time: 2 rds. Range: 15 + level yds

Area of effect: rectangle, the sum of the length and width is at most 20 + level

N/A ||| (2 * level + 8) d6 Saving throw with -2 penalty for half damage.
