Lesser Planar Binding
This spell has two modes of operation: targeting a single outsider, or summoning a planar ally. Targeted outsiders are paralyzed for 1 round per 2 caster levels if it fails a Will save. If used on the ground, the type of summoned ally is based on the caster's alignment, and the summoned outsider scales with the caster levels:
- Caster Level < 12: Summons a Lower Outsider
- Caster Level < 15: Summons an Average Outsider
- Caster Level < 18: Summons a Strong Outsider
- Caster Level < 21: Summons a Greater Outsider
- Caster Level >= 21: Summons a Legendary Outsider

How it works
Lesser Planar Binding
- Aimed at an outsider the Will save is at your usual DC. Nothing but an outsider can be bound.
- Cast on the ground the ally stays one turn per caster level, and a cleric of the Good or Evil domain summons a stronger one.
Lesser Planar Binding
- The servant stays for 24 hours and cannot be dispelled.
- Only your Blackguard levels decide how strong it is.
Where it comes from
Cast by a feat: Summon Fiend.
Cleric domain: Good (level 5).
