If one of my summoned animals gets 'imprisoned', do I have to release it? If I don't, will I still be able to summon 5 (?) animals or only 4, since one is imprisoned.

Yes you have to release it with a freedom spell. They still exist, just somewhere else while imprisoned.

Its a great spell, isnt it? ;) or at least when you get to be the one using it.

So they don't get unsummoned like usually?

Nope, they're stuck imprisoned until you free them.

If I were you I would be happy that the imprisonment was targeted to my summoned critters and not me!!!
I think that when enough time elapses for the monsters to be unsummoned you can summon others.

Yep.... Summons gt un-summoned as usual, then u can summon more monsters to get imprisoned [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]smile.gif[/img]

<font color="lightgreen"> Nope. You cant. For a summon to get unsummoned, you have to go to the room that they were in, and REALISE that they have been unsummoned. If their imprisoned, then you cant tell that there unsummoned, and infact they are not. They are in suspened animation, thus when the are freed with a freedom spell, you still have to wait however long was left for them to be unsummoned.
There is a way to manually unsummon them, you simply delete a few files in the override directory which represent your summons. I do not know what these files are though.</font>

i thought they would be unsummened
well guess not
