You choose a monster type and some key qualities and then the GM summons a monster that fits your qualities list and if one doesn't exist then summons a random one that  fits the type. It is best you don't know the monster's full stats and name.

Yes, this is insane. It's also unclear -- what can you summon at level 1?

Changed to a subcla ss feature so it can cover up 20 levels. There are sone tough low CR monsters but isnt that against adventurers when they dont see the monster coming.
