**Unskilled: 5 turns
**Basic: 10 turns
**Skilled: 15 turns
**Expert: 20 turns
*Summoned monsters can summon other monsters, however the summoned monsters will not outlive their summoners.
*Spellbook weight in FIQHack is based on spell level, so this spellbook weighs 35.
*The caster is allowed to select the location for the summoned monster.
*Summoned monsters have no starting inventory and will not leaved a corpse.
*You do not receive experience for killing a summoned monster.
*You do not receive an alignment penalty or bonus for killing a summoned monster.

+==Description==
-*The number of turns that summoned monsters last is based on the caster's clerical spell level:
+Summon monster is a [[clerical spell]]; when cast, the spell creates a random monster much like the spell of create monster, and the caster can select the square they are generated on. However, the monster will only be present for a limited amount of time, dependent on the caster's skill level - the monster will last for 5 turns at Unskilled level, 10 at Basic, 15 at Skilled, and 20 at Expert.
-**Unskilled: 5 turns
-**Basic: 10 turns
+Aside from limited "lifespan", summoned monsters have other limits as well - summoned monsters will not generate with their usual [[monster starting inventory]], do not leave a corpse, and do not benefit from [[lifesaving]]. Killing them does not give experience or alignment penalties or bonuses, and items they pick up will drop when they disappear. While a summoned monster can themselves summon other monsters, those monsters will disappear when their summoners do.
