| Description = Upon completion of the urgent, commanding phrases of this spell, you summon a single creature from a nearby Lateral Material Plane that is obedient and loyal to you and you alone.    

: The ''Summon Monster II'' spell conjures a creature with a CR based on your character level (not caster level).  This CR can be further modified through the use of [[:Category:Summon Feats|Summon Feats]] and/or some character abilities, but the total modified Challenge Rating (CR) of a summoned monster may never exceed your character level.  If the resulting creature's CR would be greater than your character level, it is reduced to a CR equal to your character level.  Refer to the table below to determine the summoned creature's CR:

: Once you have determined the CR of the summoned monster, click on the link in the table above to bring up its Bestiary entry.  Note that all summoned monsters have regular melee attacks, and also a special ability called "Summoned Strike".  Any attacks of opportunity that the summoned monster makes use its regular melee attack, not its summoned strike.

: You may decide what the summoned creature looks like (subject to referee approval), and this appearance can be the same, or different, each time you cast the spell.  Note that, even if your summoned monsters always appear identical to one another (assuming you choose to make them so), they are not the same creature (probably), merely similar-seeming creatures from some reality other than your own.  You can also describe the appearance and special effects of your summoned monster's attacks, but the damage types inflicted (e.g. {{dmg|bludgeoning}}) cannot be adjusted without a feat, power, or ability that specifically allows you to do so.

: The summoned monster appears in a space you designate within the range of the spell, but this space must be unoccupied, unblocked, and sufficient for the creature's size (usually size medium, unless modified by an ability).  You can give orders to your summoned monster as a free action, but it must spend its own actions (or actions gifted to it) in order to carry out your instructions.  Summoned monsters share your turn in the initiative order, and may act in the same round in which they are summoned.  By default, a summoned monster will attack the enemy creature (hostile to you) nearest to it to the best of its ability, unless directed otherwise. You can direct it not to attack, to attack specific enemies, or to perform other actions.

: Summoned monsters have a single standard action with which to act, over and above your own actions each round. In addition, you may 'gift' some or all of your own actions (standard, move, or swift) to your summoned monster, to allow it to perform more complex activities in a given round (such as moving and then attacking, or making a full attack action).  If more than one summoned monster is present, you must specify which summoned monster gains any 'gifted' actions you provide (i.e. your gifted move action doesn't give a move action to all summoned monsters present, just one).

: In addition to the abilities listed on the monster's bestiary entry, summoned monsters brought into this realm via ''Summoned Monster II'' gain one random movement ability, and one random bonus ability.  Roll 1d20+1 once for each table, and look up your results (note that not all results are possible with ''Summon Monster II''):
