[Ronin Arts & ARPress] Fantasy Player's Companion: Summoner Options

Why cast a fireball when you can conjure up a being of elemental fire, one eager and able to serve your every whim?

The summoner is one of the most compelling spellcasting archetypes, but one that has been sadly overlooked in d20 fantasy. There are few feats which deal specifically with summoning, and few options for expanding the role and flavor of what should be one of the most powerful, versatile spellcasters in the game.

Fantasy Player's Companion: A Menagerie of Summoner Options, is here to change that. Written by Patrick Younts, author of the Quintessential Sorcerer and the Visions collection this 18 page PDF includes everything you need to make the summoner truly viable as a character.

Inside this brand new sourcebook you will find a collection of new feats designed specifically with the summoner archetype in mind - feats like Menagerie, a feat that allows you to summon up multiple, different monsters with the casting of a single spell, or Stubborn Summons, a feat that makes dispelling your summoned monsters nearly impossible.

Even better, you'll find optional class abilities which will allow you to alter the mechanics of the bard, cleric, druid, sorcerer, or wizard classes, to better reflect the unique flavor of the summoner. Included in this section is a complete progression of unique, magical abilities that sorcerers can manifest in place of a spell slot. At the highest levels of play, a summoner-sorcerer with these abilities will command summoning magic of staggering power.

The Fantasy Player's Companion: A Menagerie of Summoner Options, also includes handy reference charts for summoners. You'll find summaries of the celestial and fiendish templates, so that you can modify your summoned creatures with ease, and a reprinting of the summon monster and summon nature's ally spells, complete with creature list, so that players won't need to reference their books every time they want to cast their most critical spells.

A Menagerie of Summoner Options also includes numerous sidebars, all filled with information that explains the implications of including new summoner options in your game.

The Fantasy Player's Companion: A Menagerie of Summoner Options is an 18 page, $3.00 pdf, at RPGNOW.com. From Ronin Arts.
