"Cursed immortals trapped in decaying bodies, the Summoners of Clan Melchahim have delved into forbidden lore in their attempts to save themselves. Flesh-sculptors graft material from unwilling sacrifices to their own bodies to cover their putrescence, while soul-wrights call on the powers of the Underworld to fuel their battlefield sorceries of destruction, protection, and summoning."
The Summoner class is among the first definite evidence that Kain's empire contained female vampires. Before the reveal of the summoner class only unseen character Lailah hinted at a female presence in the empire and previously it was unclear if the vampires of theevents of Soul Reaver were an entirely male society, though cut content for Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver does depict Kain's brides that have a somewhat similar appearance.
