Ferrous Bleed (Japanese: フェリアス・ブリード, Romaji: feriasu burīdo)[1] is a summoning spell. It does not appear in Encyclopedia Slayers or Slayers Reading.
Most fan sources categorize it into black magic (although these very sources describe the spell's original function incorrectly), while others categorize it as an astral shamanistic spell.
As explained by Lina Inverse in the fourth novel, this spell summons a gargoyle. However, when she was trapped by a mazoku in subspace, Lina altered the incantation a little on-the-fly to make the spell summon a dove instead.[2] This fact had led many fans, especially those who watched only the anime version of the scene, to believe that Ferrous Bleed is used to call animals to the caster's location.
In episode 2 of Slayers REVOLUTION, Lina casts Ferrous Bleed to summon a flock of angry birds to attack Pokota.
