How do you solve summoning and multiform in your campaign? Do you use the Bestairy book or do you invent something new?
In your campaign?

If it is possible please comment on the questions asked there..

The only summoning going on is of things my players made up. In one case I have an inventor who makes an assortment of robots. He created the robots and can "summon" them from the lab. They have the "arrive under own power" limitation.

I have one summon that is roughly based on the bestiary. Didn't like their example in the bestiary, but I found another creature in the "B" that was more like what I wanted. So I use that creature and just give it a different name.

It all depends on how your campaign is set up. If you only allow certain things to be summoned then you better have those ready. If your players want to summon specific things then they better make them and you better analyze them the way you would a player character.

The only known case of Summon being used in my campaign is a villain I made up, who can instantly create poisonous snakes. If someone else wanted to use Summon, I'd have them have those statistics of whatever it was (whether animal or whatever) right along with the character sheet.
