You can buy a Book of Summons in the Peltarch Market. Using this allows you to pick which summon turns up when you cast the spell. Without the book a random summon appropriate to your character’s alignment will be chosen.
Druids cast their summon spells one level higher. So a Summon Creature II spell is set in the book as your third level summons. It is intentional. Just keep in mind you have to set the book as one level higher then your actual spell and you will be fine. Please note that animal domain effectively functions as +1 caster level, however, the duration SCHEME will be equivalent to the NEW spell level. That being said, if you cast a summon IV spell, it will summon from the summon V list, but also give you the round/level duration.
Clerics with animal domain cast their summon spells one level higher. So a Summon Creature II spell is set in the book as your third level summons. It is intentional.

Spell Focus: Conjuration and Greater Spell Focus: Conjuration now give an effective +2 caster level when calculating duration for summons. For example, a level VII summon that lasts round/level as cast by a level 13 caster will last 15 rounds with spell focus, 17 rounds with greater. This is multiplied with an extended spell.
Attacking an evil (looking) minion (zombie, skeleton, shadow etc) must be preceded by: 1. Attempt to contact a DM requesting PK clearance on the minion, if no DM is found continue to step 2 (This does not apply to familiars. At least one (1) message to the DM channel.) 2. Attempt to find the owner of the creature and notify them of the attack on their minion only and give them two (2) clear chances to remove the evil. 3. The aggressor must always set hostile first. 4. Be aware that this counts as a PK attack against the person and they do have the right to defend their minion by attacking you. As per PVP rules, none of this may take place in a hostile area without DM permission.
