Celestial animals vs. undead


Rules Questions

Liberty's Edge

uncertain and cant find where has been talked about before.
My wizard summons a bear and I know it wont fight an undead or unnatural creature, but what if given celes template? I see nothing that would change it's willingness to attack undead, but was sujested to me that they should be able to do so. please help me figure this out.


The summon monster spell says specifically that the animal will attack your foes. Specific rules, in this case the behavior of extraplanar animals summoned with this spell, override general rules, in this case the general behavior of animals.

so summons would over ride the need for 2 attack tricks. I can see this. I have always played that you have complete control, even to having them commit suicide actions. Dont know why didnt draw this conclusion. Thanks.
