Under Construction/Review
The creation of a magical simulacrum of some sort of creature to serve the interests of the caster. The properties of the simulacrum affect the difficulty of casting the spell. Conjuration is a specialized field of Unicorn Magic. The caster can also only control a finite number of conjured beings at once without risking losing control of them.

The simulacrum is considered to have a chosen pony type for the purposes of being able to use pony type specific skills, e.g. Pegasus weather manipulation |
Controlling a Simulacrum: The caster may simultaneously control a number of simulacra equal to his or her WIL without risk of spontaneous control failure. When a simulacrum in excess of this number is created, the caster must make a WIL check against the number of simulacra. If it is failed, a randomly selected simulacrum (not necessarily the newly created one) goes out of control and behaves randomly. Control cannot be reestablished without specialized spells.
A simulacrum that is under control may be dispelled at will as a free action.
A simulacrum that casts magic draws energy from its caster's magical reserve. Simulacra do not suffer from any magical overexertion effects. They do not have instinctive telekinesis or reactive magic.
