Summoner job command. Calls forth espers from the highest realms of the spirit world.

Description

Summon (召喚魔法, Shōkan Mahō?, lit. Summon Magic) is an action ability in Final Fantasy Tactics usable by the Summoner job that allows the summoning of espers to aid allies in battle or deal massive amounts of damage. The summon abilities are characteristic for ignoring targets' Magick Evasion (with the exception of Carbuncle, Sylph, and Lich), larger effect area, and distinguishing between friend and foe, so the defensive abilities will only help the allies and offensive abilities will only hit the enemies. In exchange for the convenience, the MP cost and casting time are higher than other magick abilities.

Etymology[]

Evocation is the act of calling upon or summoning a spirit, demon, god or other supernatural agent, in the Western mystery tradition. Comparable practices exist in many religions and magical traditions and may employ the use of mind-altering substances with and without uttered word formulas.
