Parchment of Monster Holding (Magic Parchment)

This 1-foot-square piece of parchment can hold any monster summoned by a monster summoning I spell. The wizard unfolds the parchment and lays it before himself prior to casting the spell. If the spell is successfully cast, the summoned monster is immediately absorbed into the parchment, appearing there as a colored image. The caster can then refold the parchment and carry it with him, holding the summoned monster indefinitely. When the parchment is unfolded and laid on the ground, and the wizard speaks a command word, the monster appears, remaining active for the normal duration of the monster summoning I spell.
Any single parchment of monster holding can be used only once; after the monster is released, the parchment crumbles to dust. The parchment also crumbles if it is torn or defaced in any way.
