The binding circle ritual123 and planar binding spell4 call an unwilling outsider from its planar home in the Great Beyond to the Universe via conjuration magic. The spellcaster can then attempt to trap it in a previously prepared magic circle and convince or force it to perform a task for her in return for its freedom.234
