Summoning portals periodically spawn monsters. They activate after the player has spent a good amount of time moving around in a region, and once activated, the player can interact with the portal to put off the eventual monster spawn or influence what comes out. However, it might not always be the best choice to delay monster spawning, as summoning portals are often the only way for new monsters to spawn in the region. Active summoning portals also activate any crystal monitors in the region. Portals spawn monsters quicker the fewer monsters are in the region, and spawn slower the more monsters are in the region, although certain monsters aren't factored into this counter.

Portal haste and delay

Portal spawning is managed by an internal variable called "charge". The lower this variable is, the close the portal is to spawning a new monster. Performing certain actions while a portal is active will either increase or decrease the time remaining until the next monster spawn.

The following actions affect portals:

  • Offer Jewelery
    • Increases portal charge by the value of the jewel times 150.
  • Offer Pure Totem
    • Increases portal charge by 1000
  • Offer Portal-specific items (see below)
    • Usually increases portal charge by 300
  • Offer Fluid-soaked clothing
    • Decreases portal charge by 50 per fluid unit.
  • Orgasm
    • Decreases portal charge by a random number between 80 and 100
  • Masturbation
    • Decreases portal charge by 20 per turn spent masturbating.

Delaying a portal spawn is more difficult the more time is left until the next summon. The following conditions affect increases to portal charge:

  • Each time a portal's charge is increased without spawning anything, incoming increases to charge are reduced by 10 times the number of resets.
  • If a portal has 900 or more charge, incoming increases are divided by 4.
  • If a portal has 700 or more charge, incoming increases are divided by 3.
  • If a portal has 500 or more charge, incoming increases are divided by 2.

Regional Portals

Every region aside from the School and the Extra Credit Zone has a summoning portal that periodically summons monsters. Each portal shares a couple traits, but all of them summon different sets of monsters. The next monster is usually decided as soon as the portal is activated. Players who know the Divination skill can check the portal's description to find out exactly what will come out next.

Summoning Circle (Dungeon)

The dungeon's summoning portal is found in the Ritual Room in the Dungeon.

Summoned Monsters

The summoning circle will prioritize summoning a Royal Guard if none are in the dungeon, otherwise the selection is random. The "mirror" section of the summoning circle's description changes depending on the upcoming monster

Entering

Entering the summoning circle has a 1 in 3 chance of cursing any clothing in the vicinity (rolled for each clothing individuall), and increases the portal's charge by between 200 and 300. In addition to increasing the portal charge, the portal will trigger one of the following negative effects for the player:

  • Increase Sex Addiction
  • Arousal Increased
  • Increases breast sensitivity and transforming a piece of clothing covering the player's chest.
    • If nothing is covering the player's chest, then their titfuck addiction will be increased instead.
  • Increases the size of the player's hips by 1 or 2 (equal chance)
    • If Weight Gain is enabled, increases the size of the player's ass instead.
  • Masturbate automatically
    • Always happens if the player is very horny when they enter the circle
    • Also, only happens if the player is very horny when they enter the circle.
    • Disables the normal charge gain.

Woods Portal

The giant statue in the woods will always spawn a mannequin first, and then spawns Demonesses, Wasps(Beast and egg fetishes enabled), Aeromancers(Inflation enabled), Fairies, Gladiators*, and more mannequins. Its description has a small bit of text that gives a hint toward the next monster to spawn:

When the statue activates, the player will be aroused by a small amount. If the player is close to the statue, they will be aroused for a much larger amount, fatigued, and forced to their knees. If the vine boss is alive, or the Doom Quest is complete, any pregnancy will progress slightly. Otherwise, the player's lactation rate will increase as long as they have lactation fetish enabled.

Killing monsters, or offering the following items will decrease the time until the next monster spawns from the statue:

The description of the statue will change slightly depending on how close it is to a monster spawn
