conjuration
Spell that summons
Conjuration is the act of summoning something through magic or ritual—especially spirits, demons, or supernatural forces.
A conjurer performs conjurations.
The word extends to any seemingly magical production: With a conjuration of hand gestures, she produced a coin from behind his ear.
In fantasy games and fiction, conjuration is often a school of magic focused on summoning creatures or objects from other planes.
