SPECIAL NOTICE
Malicious code was found on the site, which has been removed, but would have been able to access files and the database, revealing email addresses, posts, and encoded passwords (which would need to be decoded). However, there is no direct evidence that any such activity occurred. REGARDLESS, BE SURE TO CHANGE YOUR PASSWORDS. And as is good practice, remember to never use the same password on more than one site. While performing housekeeping, we also decided to upgrade the forums.
This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Is this homebrew DnD 5e spell OP?

Summoning
You summon summon any monster but only one at a time according the following table where the number is the level. You can't summon or create any other monster or creature while the monster summoned by this spell is alive and present.

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.

You can't control a creature until you pass a Charisma save or otherwise convince the monster to follow you by convincing it or know its true name.

Yes, this is insane. It's also unclear -- what can you summon at level 1?
Battle doesn\'t need a purpose; the battle is its own purpose. You don\'t ask why a plague spreads or a field burns. Don\'t ask why I fight.

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.
