Evocation

The power to call upon or summon spirits, demons, deities or other supernatural agents. Sub-power of Summoning, Ritual Manipulation, and Magic. Variation of Materialization. Not to be confused with Theurgy or Invocation.
==Also Called==
* Invoking Prayer/Wisher
==Capabilities==
The user can call upon or summon spirits or other kinds of entities for specific tasks such as gathering information or some practical application aimed at manifestation in the physical world. After the operation, the practitioner dismisses or banishes the entity to leave the room or space of evocation and complete the task. The operant is not offering supplication or service to the entity, and the goal is for the entity to grant the request of the operant. After a successful operation, the magician may choose to supply an offering to the spirit, as this is always good courtesy.
Crucial to evocation is the barrier created by the operant between the entity being evoked and the operant. This is an astral barrier such as the one produced by the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram, or by calling in the four directions. The circle gains power when it is drawn on the ground in the physical realm as well as in the astral. Ceremonial magicians are known for their elaborate circular constructions, but a simple circle cast on the ground with an iron nail, wand, finger, dagger, or crystal point can be just as effective. After the ritual has been conducted, an evocation includes a dismissal to the spirit to fulfill their charge and a clearing of the astral space. They can and can’t not sentient nor instinctual in their abilities. The operant must be very clear and firm when stating their requests.
