Summoning Magic

**Summoning Magic** are methods to call upon a being for assistance.

## **Summary**

A form of Teleportation Magic, Summoning Magic is generally used to call upon a supernatural being with the use of Summoning Magic whenever someone requires help, these range from Magicians, Devils and even Familiars so long as they form a pact.

## **Abilities**

A summoning performed by humans is done by preparing a ritual with rune writing and symbols depending on what they're trying to call. Beings who can use magic preform a summoning do so by simply casting a magic circle for their summoning to appear. In modern day, the ritual is now made on a sheet of flyer with the magic circle placed on it by the supernatural being. The flyers can also allow others to summon another's familiar.

### **Dragon Gate**

A special variation of **Dragon Gate** (, *Doragon Gēto*) can be utilized to summon a Dragon to a certain location. To do so, a ritual is required to be prepared and several other Dragons or Sacred Gear users that have a Dragon's soul sealed inside their Sacred Gear have to be present, at the bare minimum 3 Dragons have to be present to forcibly summon another Dragon. The more dragons there are and the stronger they are, the stronger Dragon they can summon. To summon a powerful Dragon God like Great Red would require multiple if not all of the Dragon Kings.

Individuals make a Familiar pact with a Dragon can utilize Dragon Gate magic to summon it.

While initially only Dragons can utilize Dragon Gates to summon other Dragons, it is possible for others to use other methods to summon Dragons. Using the Nine-Tailed Fox along with Kyoto's leylines would allow someone to achieve a similar effect.

### **Blood Contract**

To actually summon an animal, users apply some of their blood to the hand they signed the contract with. Usually they bite one of their fingers to accomplish this, but blood from injuries elsewhere on their body can also be used. They press the hands' five fingers down and channel their power to the hand, summoning the animal to that location. While usually pressing them at the ground, it is also possible to do so on no surface at all, such as midair. The amount of power gathered in the hand determines the size and number of animals that are summoned: if too little power is offered, only a small, young animal will be summoned; by offering large amounts of power, multiple adult animals can be summoned simultaneously. Two people who have signed the same contract can pool their power to summon especially large animals. If an individual has access to the blood of someone who has signed an animal's contract, they can use the blood to summon the animal; the individual will need to provide their own power, however.
