[QUOTE="Alexemplar, post: 7222353, member: 6874182"] I consider Planar Ally to be your standard "summoning things from beyond" spell and I treat it as such. Which creatures can be summoned, how they react, and what they're willing to do all vary greatly on the setting and the nature of all parties involved. For the most part, the entity that gets sent through is acting on behalf of the cosmic power that you beseeched, with the authority that implies. It's really up to the DM to understand the cosmic powers and monsters and how they all interact. The Silver Flame will send coautls that are helpful to the point of self-sacrifice if they see the purpose for summoning them as worthy. The Undying Court will not likely be able to send anything outside of Aerenal (that's where their power is) and anyone they do send will likely act more in an advisory position as opposed to fighting stuff. In fact, I can't offhand think of any instances in an Eberron game where a creature summoned by the spell would accept simple gold coins as payment. [/QUOTE]
