Summon monster II

Summon monster II, or monster summoning II, (originally called Lucke's 2nd monster summons ) was one of the series of summon monster spells available to spellcasters.

Effects
This spell functions just as all summon monster spells. It could summon a giant bee, giant bombardier beetle, riding dog, or eagle from one of the celestial planes or a lemure, squid, wolf, large monstrous centipede, medium-sized monstrous scorpion, medium-sized shark, medium-sized monstrous spider, or medium-sized viper from one of the fiendish planes. A kaorti from the Far Realm could also be summoned. Clerics of Vhaeraun who had studied the Obsul Ssussun could summon a special servant of their deity called a vhaerath.

Alternatively, it could summon one to three dogs, owls, giant fire beetles, porpoises, badgers, or monkeys from the celestial planes or the same number of dire rats, ravens, medium-sized monstrous centipedes, small monstrous scorpions, hawks, small monstrous spiders, octopuses, or small vipers from one of the fiendish planes&mdash;provided they were within 30 feet of each other.

History
Like most of the other summon monster spells, this one was by the Netherese arcanist Lucke. He completed it in &minus;1984 DR, ten years after the creation of summon monster I.
