Jim, I need help with Summoning

Here's how I would handle it:

1. The player of the Magic-User casting the Summon spell must take 2 or more dice from 2 or more people and roll them. Then ignore the roll.

2. Then a random 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th-level Magic-User spell is cast. Make all necessary rolls (saving throws, damage dice, whatever), and last of all apply the result to a random target.

3. Any Clerics present must slay the person present who has the highest Strength score. If the Clerics succeed, they are OK. If the Clerics fail, they disappear into the past or into the future. The players of these vanished Clerics must now roll new characters.

Thanks for the input Geoffrey.  But really, Step 1 has no in-game effect.  Your step 2 and step 3 are cool.  But I think I'll see if Mr Raggi replies, since he'll know for sure.

Ed Dove's response is what I want people to do with the result. Not his conclusions necessarily, but providing personal interpretation. The idea of that result is that nothing makes sense anymore.
