Summoning Orbs

Summoning orbs are handheld spheres usually made of a durable dense substance such as bone, metal, stone, or wood. Carved into the surface of the orb is usually an image or symbol giving a clue as to the creature that may be summoned with the wondrous items. Spellcasters often use these summoning orbs as pawns in magical strategy games not unlike chess. On the other hand, practitioners with the Beastmastery sphere may utilize these as mobile animal allies that can be tucked away or summoned at a moment's notice without the hassle of traveling with an entire herd or circus of animals.

3,600 gp: 1/day, you may activate the summoning orb to conjure forth, an emissary lantern archon into an empty adjacent square, and remains for 3 rounds before disappearing. If the summoner can communicate with the creature (usually by speaking celestial), and is neither chaotic or evil, the summoner can direct it not to attack, to attack particular enemies, or to perform other actions. If the summoner lacks the ability to properly communicate with the archon (such as lacking the celestial language), the archon must be “pushed” with a DC 20 Diplomacy or Linguistics check as if using the Handle Animal skill. If the summoner is of chaotic alignment, the archon will feel under no obligation to follow any directions or orders given by the summoner. If the summoner is of evil alignment, the archon will not only be under any obligation to follow any directions or orders given by the summoner, but may very well turn on and attack its summoner.

3,600 gp: 1/day, you may activate the summoning orb to conjure forth, an emissary dretch demon into an empty adjacent square, and remains for 3 rounds before disappearing. If the summoner can communicate with the creature (usually by speaking abyssal), the summoner can direct it not to attack, to attack particular enemies, or to perform other actions. If the summoner lacks the ability to properly communicate with the demon (such as lacking the abyssal language), the demon must be “pushed” with a DC 20 Diplomacy or Linguistics check as if using the Handle Animal skill. The demon usually has no qualms obeying the directions or orders given by the summoner, regardless of their alignment, however their only true allegiance is to themselves and will turn on or betray their summoner if it would be beneficial to the fiend.
