I just asked you about the summons and the charcters in Abyss. But thank you for all that other info. Those charcters names are very cool. Did you know that all from memory or look it up. If from memory very impressive!! ^__^

3/4 were from memory... And I feel a little silly now for not realizing what you meant ^_^;
Here are the Abyss Characters (I put them in the order that they become playable in the game):
Luke fon Fabre
Tear Grants
Jade Curtiss
Anise Tatlin
Guy Cecil (Real name... Play the game and you'll find out ^_^)
Natalia Luzu Kimlasca-Lanvaldear
These are the six playable characters of Abyss, obviously there are other non-playable, yet still important characters and there is one more playable character that you meet later.
There are seven main antagonists inthe story, and since some of them are spoilers, that's all I'll say unless you're curious.
As for summons... are you by any chance talking about Mystic Artes? There actually aren't any summoners/summonings in Tales of the Abyss. However, each character has Mystic Artes, which is the equivalent to the special attacks like Falcon's Crest, Indignant Judgment, etc. Only in Abyss they're much much much easier to perform and make use of. And yes, they are much better animated. Each character has one standard mystic arte, and then one hidden one, amounting to 12 Mystic Artes at your disposal (14 if you include the additional character you get to play later).
Actually... Scratch that. The enemy boss characters have mystic artes as well, which sometimes make them a pain in the neck if you're not prepared for them. And then there are other NPC's who have Mystic Artes. One particularly important character eventually gives his Mystic Arte to Luke, the main character, I believe. So... There are actually a lot of them ^_^; I don't think I can remember/write them all...
Also, instead of Unison Attacks, there are Overlimits for each character. In Symphonia, the overlimit was something that just happened over time and was automatically activated. In Abyss, when you're green overlimit bar is full, you press the R2 button whenever you like, and the corresponding character will go into overlimit, during which you can activate mystic artes.
Although I'm sad that the summonings were taken out, when you start playing the game and get acquainted with the setting, it's pretty clear that summonings and summoners would be very much out of place.
