Summoned Monsters - How Long Do They Stick Around?

[TheAuldGrump]

I never did like how short a time summoned monsters would hang around after being summoned. How long are they likely to remain under Fantasy Craft?

For that matter - what are elementals likely to be like? I am currently working on a conversion from my homebrew to my best guess in regards to FC - and have arrived at a scene involving a city ablaze, while fire elementals rampage about. (In the setting major disasters allow the entry of elementals into the world - floods bring water elementals, hurricanes and tornadoes bring air elementals, earthquakes allow the entry of earth elementals - what is required is the death of several sentient beings - creating a sort of natural human sacrifice. The elementals that show up during a disaster are not likely to be nice guys. The idea is stolen, sort of, from Mercedes Lackey.)

My gut reaction is that crittter summons takes longer, but they stick around until the end of the scene (or are killed/dispelled/otherwise made to vanish).

Forgot to reply earlier - that sounds good.
