Can you dispel demon summoned by other demon?


Rules Questions


The summon SLA that demons use to bring another in says:

Quote:
A creature with the summon ability can summon other specific creatures of its kind much as though casting a summon monster spell, but it usually has only a limited chance of success (as specified in the creature’s entry).

And dispel magic can attempt to dispel summon monster, so does it work on the SLA?


Spell-like abilities, as the name implies, are magical abilities that are very much like spells. Spell-like abilities are subject to spell resistance and dispel magic.


thanks, I should have put that together after I looked at the stat block and saw that it was listed as an SLA rather than a special ability or something

of course, looking at the stat block is not something I could have done in play when I was told no by a more experienced player :/

of course even if I had known, dispel is still rather chancy


Perhaps this needs an FAQ flag?
