Summon Friends

Summon Friends (サモンフレンズ) is a rarely used arte in the Tales series which summons allies into battle.

Arte Description and History
Summon Friends essentially does what the name implies; it summons one or more allies into battle to attack the enemy.

When Gnome uses it in Tales of Eternia, it is a high-level spell which summons his gnome underlings in a swarm to trample his foes.

During Patty Fleur's use in Tales of Vesperia, it is considerably upgraded, mainly due to its status as her mystic arte. Similar to some of Patty's other artes, the overall effect is randomized into many different outcomes, though all open with a giant roulette wheel falling from the sky and crushing Patty's enemies. She then skips along the outer edge until she trips and lands on one of the faces, activating that particular effect. The outcomes can range from a flock of seagulls encasing an enemy in a block of ice, to Mieu burning all enemies with a concentrated stream of flame, or even a heavenly being raining columns of light upon its foes. A complete list of effects can be found on her arte page.
