Scroll of summoning

From NetHackWiki

In FIQHack the scroll of create monster is replaced with the scroll of summoning.

In both cases, a monster is created.

The major difference between the two scrolls is that summoned monsters only exist for a limited amount of time, based on the beatitude of the scroll:

  • Blessed: 20 turns
  • Uncursed: 10 turns
  • Cursed: 100 turns

In addition, if the scroll is cursed, the monster will be centered on you, hostile, and hasted.

If you read a scroll of summoning while confused, a random item with the same beatitude as the scroll will be created.

Other than the case of reading a cursed scroll, you will be prompted to select a location for the creation of the new monster.

See the spellbook of summoning for other details on the difference between summon and create monster.
