Type of Bug/Exploit: Summoning problem
Area of Bug Exploit (be as specific as possible): Tried in Jialiar’s Lair (Hala) and Farwood just east of Great Divide (Ysgard).
NPCs involved (Be as specific as possible): None.
Chests involved: None.
Timestamp on when it happened: 02:40 GMT / 02:45 GMT 18th September 2012
Frequency of occurrence: Both times I tried.
In amongst Jialiar’s things Jayem found an Umbrella called Umbralella whose connection to the Plane of Shadows allowed it to “Create Shadowfiend”. But when Jayem tried in the Lair so he could see how useful this might be he got a naked male Dwarf. I checked once I had taken him across the Great Divide and had the same result. This probably has the same root cause as the problem with Summon Creature and Gate that sometimes pops up, which seems to be that the spell can’t find the creature so it defaults to the first option which is this. But worth mentioning since this is a different thing being affected.
