Effect The caster performs a 10-minute ritual to summon and bind an Outsider to their will. This ritual includes the preparation of a summoning circle in an open space at least 8 yards wide. The ritual forms a gate to the caster's chosen plane, and summons a chosen Outsider type to the current plane. Each Rank of Seed Summon allows the caster to learn one type of Outsider to summon for that rank (e.g. Succubus for a Rank 3 Pandemonium summoner). The Outsider chosen may have a rank of the caster's Summon rank or lower.

The caster needs a number of successes to bind the Outsider to their will:

< Seed Rank = Seed Rank +1 Seed Rank +2 Seed Rank +3 Seed Rank
1 2 Outsider Rank + 1 Outsider Rank + 2 Outsider Rank + 3


If the binding is successful, the Outsider is placed under the control of the caster for the duration of the spell. The Outsider may be dismissed to their own plane or manifested (returned from their plane) as a Standard Action. If a dismissed outsider is manifested, they may not act until the following round due to the time needed to adjust to their surroundings. When the spell duration expires, the outsider is sent back to the plane it was drawn from, and the bindings are removed. If the caster is killed with the outsider manifested, it may either return to its home plane, or remain for the remainder of the duration. A maximum of Rank Outsiders may be bound at one time, and only one may be manifested at a time.

If the binding fails, the outsider may either return to its home plane, or remain for up to 24 hours. If the Outsider remains, it may torment, or kill the caster, but it may also return to its own plane at will.
