Summoning Jutsu

Summoning Jutsu are considered a subtype of Ninjutsu and use your wisdom to determine the attack rolls and saving throws for the techniques.

In order to take summoning jutsu techniques, you must make a contract in blood with a creature or creatures. Once you do so, you learn one of the summoning techniques associated with the animal determined by the GM. You can now select jutsu from the summoning jutsu list.

Contracts 

The following are the beasts you can make contracts with. After you make a contract with a beast, you can select jutsu from the General Summoning Technique list and the list with your associated beast. Pay attention to the requirements for the jutsu as some are limited by the creature you have made a contract with.
