[QUOTE="Stalker0, post: 941951, member: 5889"] Alright, I got to use lesser planar binding for the first time last night. It went alright, but it brought up a lot of questions about the spell I want to clear up. 1) Can you cast spells or attack the creature through the trap? Does mindcontrol work through the trap (magic circle after all) 2) How specific does the contract need to be. Can I ask it to guard me and my party until we are able to get through a particular dungeon? 3) Does the creature take orders from me while in service, or is it as long as it completes its task it can do whatever. Example, I summon an imp to escort me through a dangerous stretch of land. Can I also order it, not to harm certain people, or can it basically go on a killing spree as it likes? 4) If I can not get the creature to agreed to my demands, can I just send it back (using the same mechanic as when it completes its task) or must I send it back through other means. 5) The calling diagram allows me to maintain the magic circl and dimensional anchor for a day/level. Can I renew those spells while the creature is trappeD? 6) Once the creature has agreed, how is it bound to its agreement? Do I chalk it up to "its magic" and it simply cannot disobey, or should I use some kind of geas mechanic? [/QUOTE]
