Reading a scroll of summoning will instantly summon a collection of allied monsters appropriate to the floor you are currently on, similar to the effects of casting Shadow Creatures 2d2 times but with greater duration than the actual spell. These reinforcements can be extremely variable in quality, but the scroll is capable of bringing an immense amount of support to bear instantly and for no cost beyond the scroll itself. As such, they are extremely rare.
History
Scrolls of summoning were originally used to create a permanent small abomination pet, but these were eventually renamed to scrolls of unholy creation in 0.11. Scrolls of summoning were returned to the game in 0.12.
