Effect: When this
spell is CAST,
the magic-user teleports
some desired item (ie. the area) from virtually any location
directly to his or her hand.
VC1: [Specifically name the object (ie. area) + incant every word, but the last.]
SC: [hold a gem of not less than 5,000 g.p. value in [your] hand + you must touch the object (ie. area) during the incantation.]
MC: To prepare this
spell,
the magic-user must hold
a gem of not less than 5,000 g.p. value in his or her hand and utter all
but the final word of the conjuration. He or she then must have this same
gem available to cast the spell.
MC.DMG: The special
jewel used will have a magically-created inscription naming the object
it will summon.
The inscription is invisible
and readable only by means of a read magic spell to all but the caster
of the spell.
VC2: All that is then
required is that the magic-user utter the final word while crushing the
gem,
and the desired item (ie.
area)
is transported instantly into the spell caster's right or left hand as
he or she desires.
Area:
The object must be singular, can be no larger than a sword is long,
have no more mass and weight
than a shield (about 75 g.p. weight),
and it must be non-living.
The item must, of course,
have been previously touched
during the initial incantation and specifically named,
and only that particular
item will be summoned by the spell.
Effect.exception:
If the item is in the possession of another creature, the spell will not
work,
but the caster will know
who the possessor is and roughly where he,
she, or it is located when
the summons is cast.
Effect.exception.spell.DMG: Items contained within a Leomund's Secret Chest are not subject to this spell.
Other Planes: Items
can be summoned from other planes of existence,
but only
if such items are not in the possession (not necessarily physical grasp)
of another creature.
For each level of experience
above the 14th,
the magic-user
is able to summon a desired item from 1 plane further removed
from
the plane he or she is upon at the time the spell is cast,
Effect.example:
i.e. 1 plane at 14th level,
but 2 at 15th,
3 at 16th,
etc.
Thus, a magic-user of 16th
level could effect the spell even if the item desired was on the second
layer of one of the outer planes,
but at 14th level the magic-user
would be able to summon the item only if it were on one of the Elemental
Planes
or the
Astral or the Ethereal Plane.
Drawmij's Instant Summons: The gem
used as the material component will have
a magickal inscription upon it naming the
object to be summoned; this is invisible
and cannot be read by anyone without a
read magick spell (except the spellcaster).
Also, while the PH notes that wizards
of 15th level and higher may be able to
summon items from other dimensions with
this spell, the DMG specifies that items in
a Leomund's secret chest (which are on
the ethereal dimension) cannot be summoned.
