Note - Sorry if I placed this in the wrong section. Didn't know where to properly put this and saw "character sheet" so I thought it would work I decided to DM a game with my friend, which we agreed on making a completely evil campaign. So that being said he decided to choose a Summoner, giving me a reference from the 3.5e version rather then the 5e version . When I asked him what was wrong with the 5e version, he said he didn't like how you were only allowed to " make " a creature and not really summon different kinds of monsters. I have a few ideas on how I could give him his desires of summoning the undead and other monstrosities, but I wanted to see if anyone else knew of an easier and better solution. Was also curious on another solution because the 3.5e version also has multiple different spells and skills/abilities that 5e either changed or got rid of, which I'm still a bit new to D&D and I don't know which 3.5e spells work fine with 5e without being overpowered/broken. So basically, does anyone know of a Summoner class which allows the character to "summon" different kinds of monsters and not just "create" an entity that you bring forth. Summoning certain monsters from the monster manual.
