How do you summon a demon?

How do you summon a demon? And then how do you dismiss it again? I've had to come up with answers to both of these for my #dnd #5e campaign - feel free to reuse.

A Magical City Guard Force

Religion at the D&D Table in Practice

In an earlier post, I talked about why you should include religion in your campaign, and reviewed Eventyr Games’ publication “Devotion and Divinity”, and then in the next two posts I described two different sets of religion notes I prepared for my campaigns, first my Karameikos campaign, and then my current campaign in Akorros.
