I have a player cast Magic Circle against Evil when a spectre attacked, and he was under the impression that the spectre was an evil outsider or summoned creature entery for this spectre:
(Sinister Spectre (CR 7): The dwarven spectre (Pathfinder RPG Bestiary 256) named Begrundi Stonehold seethes with anger. Originally part of a group of adventurers, this unfortunate soul was betrayed by his companions and left to die in the mountains. Dead for only a day before he rose as a spectre, Begrundi was able to track down his murderous companions before they could leave the valley. As the traitors slept in their camp, Begrundi killed them one by one, draining them slowly of their life force and delighting in their terror. Begrundi still roams the valley, preying on lone travelers. Since spectres abhor sunlight, this result happens only after sundown.)
I said that it only get the normal protection of the +2 deflection bonus and the +2 to the saves vs the Spectre (or a ghost). Am correct, or would it be treated as a summoned creature, and can't attack??
