Protection Knight Spell-What do you think?

[-Sky-]

I found this spell and i liked it a lot because i like the idea of invoking the Knights to give protection.But what do you think about it?Maybe it is too much to invoke the spirits of the Knights lost in battle and ask them to be your "army"?

PROTECTION KNIGHT SPELL
Cast a circle on the ground all casters enter. 1-? casters can be used (the more the more powerful).
Hear me knights of past, Knights of the ancient law.
Hear me dead knights of an English tongue.
Hear me knights lost in battle, who's blade did good.
Hear me knights of old, hear me knights of lost souls.
This night I invoke thee . I summon thee to my arms aid.
Hear me knights, a new cause be given.
Your body gone now spirit be.
Hear me Dead Knights I invoke thee.
By your spirit blade I invoke you.
By your might I invoke you.
By your spirit I invoke you.
Come now , follow a new cause, I summon thee.
Each of thee I enlist. I invoke you dead knights lost.
Hear me and come to my aid. Hear me and fight at my side.
Protect me from spirits harm. Fight my battles I say to thee.
Hear me Spirits of lost knights, come to my aid, come to my side.
Protect me from spirits harm. Protect me from spirits light. I invoke you.
I invoke you. I invoke you. I invoke you. I invoke you.
Let my army be done. Let it be. Let it be.

I wouldn't, knights weren't chivalrous, weren't honorable, and generally treated women like possessions so if I were female I wouldn't trust one to guard my back, but if you are working for the idealized knight then that would work even better. Ooo... you could modify it to bring their prowess forth in you... but it looks to me like a defensive thing... I say go for it, but always be prepared for what you asked to help you to turn on you. Yes indeed do it, and if you find one my ancestors tell them to please stay dead.

*Edit* Oh and if it is an invocation then if they want to come they will but I don't think they have to... yeah... it never says I COMMAND THEE! or anything, you shouldn't have to worry about any coming that don't want to come, if you care about those sorts of things that is.

I've seen this thing floating around before. I've never used it. It seems to be to be a very Martial invocation. So Tuesday would be good.

What's in it for them? Why should they do this for you?

Indeed, summonings always require a quid pro quo...

In my opinion, the best one to protect you is you! Your spirit can be counted on, heck its you! And who wants the best for you more than you?
If you feel you need a little help, sure ask for it, but 'asking' I think is the best way to go. :) At least then if the helper says yes, its cause they/it 'want' to be of help. :)

Amelserru_halqu: lol :P I will definately ask your ancestor to stay dead.Seriously,thanks for the suggestions!:)I really like the idea about the prowess,maybe i will modify it a bit.


semicivilizedman: I don't know.If i do the spell,i will let them decided whether there is something in it for them or not.
