Looking for RPG books of Spirits and Summoning


Other RPGs


While I realize any monster manual technically has creatures that could be summoned... I am curious to get a list of books that contain creatures/beings/spirits that are to be *intentionally* summoned.

Jinn are of particular interest.

I'm currently aware of:

1.) M:tAw - Summoners
2.) Exalted 2E - Malfeas, Games of Divinity,
3.) Sorcerors of Ur-Turuk
4.) M:tAsc - Dreamspeakers, Book of Worlds
5.) Ars Magica - (Realm of Power series, The Cradle and Crescent)
6.) ??

Any suggestions would be fantastic, and please note, D20 products are fine too, I put this in the Other RPG section since I know there has got to be more stuff out there. :)


Shadowrun, of course. Shamans in particular are inclined to use a lot of summoning magic, usually for spirits of various types. Street Magic is the book for 5e (the latest edition) that contains more than the basic information on different types, but also a lot of other information about magic.

Different Runequest editions have a variety of summoned creatures, mostly elementals (physical manifestations of an element or sometimes a concept) and spirits (non-physical, though they can affect the world), though there's also summons that don't fit either of those categories. Monster Coliseum is the best source for those, though it also has other types of creatures.


If you can somehow get a hold of it, the magic burner for burning wheel has a nice section on summoning. Also the Sorcerer RPG is all about summoning demons of various sorts.

EDIT: Here is a link to the current Bundle of Holding which has two games that might interest you.
