Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sejs" data-source="post: 280131" data-attributes="member: 4910">There's a problem with charming purple worms, or really any monster that has low intelligence (int 1 worm) and / or no language skills (purple worms for instance).  Charm Monster makes the target of the spell amiable to the caster.  Only.  Not the caster's friends, not the townsfolks that happen to come into contact with the caster, noone else.  Personally I'd say let him learn this the hard way.  Charm a Purple Worm and the worm'll think ...'okay.. Bard = Friend, don't eat friend.  Small-Fast-Salty Creatures near Friend = Food or Threat. Kill.' and the bard will have no way to tell the beast otherwise.  It understands no speech and is possibly too dim to even understand hand guestures / pantomime.  As for protection from evil - take a look at the spell description more.. it does say that the effect moves with the recipient of the spell, but the rub is ...... so if the person with Prot from Evil attack the summoned creature they're not warded anymore.  And most importantly the spell seems to only ward against creatures that are of the alignment warded against. Good creatures ignore Protection from Evil, .. Evil creatures ignore Protection from Good.  Same with Lawful or Chaotic creatures.  There would be a DM call concerning Neutral creatures.  But if the sorcerer would have some problems with people Prot From X'ing his summoned monsters, just have him know what to summon against what.  Only divine casters will get in trouble for summoning creatures that are of an opposing alignment to their own.</blockquote>
