Well, the first sentence of your hymnal (thanks, Aaron) under Summoning says "A magician may only summon the chosen spirits of her tradition..." so you only get five types of spirits.

Okay, but what is a "Hymnal" ? (Remember: me ain't speaking english as mothertongue....

Where is it written? I can'T find it in the BBB under Conjuring....

edit: Have found it out (nearly) by myself, after looking closer.... Thanks a lot for the fast help!

Hymnal is a very minor sacrilegious way to say BBB. Hymnal is a book of hymns(songs) in reference to Christianity. I haven't any clue why people use it for the BBB. I would think Bible a more fitting word(maybe that is too much of a sacrilege). Last I checked no one sang anything out of the BBB. Though I could be wrong, it is a strange world we live in.

Well personally I've always taken it to add a feeling of religious adherence to RAW as well.

And if I remember correctly I've seen it refered to as Bible a time or two.

You managed to make me laugh - sitting alone in the room in front of the laptop ... this must have looked ridiculous :D
