My bad for being late on the response.

Summoning is similar to commanding in foundation because both can order their target to do something. What makes summoning different from commanding however is that summoned beings have more freedom. In some cases when beings are summoned, they allowed to do whatever they wish within their boundaries. The only reason they follow the orders of their summoner is because they bound to them by something such as a key, contract or relationship.

Take Lucy from Fairy Tail for example; she has the keys to summoning the 12 Zodiac beings. The beings can think and act for themselves, but since Lucy owns their keys and they share a good relationship with her, they willingly follow her orders when summoned. Of course there are other rules that apply, but those aren't important right now.

Commanding on the other hand is more like giving an absolute order that your target must follow. If you order a man to do something, they will do it, even if it's against their will. You can even reference it to powers like brain washing or living puppet controlling.

For example of commanding, think of Hitoshi Shinso from Boku no Hero Academia. His power is to allow him to control the actions of anyone who verbally responds to him.

You should know the similarities and differences between the two already right? I was just mentioning it just because. But yes it does sound much more better, generally and situationally, to have summonings rather than simply commanding birds.

Now to the RP, we can go with the second scenario. Since you suggested we do this, I hope you have a good starting post and planned ahead. You can make the page and I'll respond when you have it up.

If you got any other plans or events you want to add to this idea, I'll be happy to discuss it.
