Awaken Undead (5e Spell)

Design Note: This spell is not to be confused with the older 3.5e spell of the same name from Libris Mortis: The Book of Undead, which had nothing to do with the creation of this spell.

Awaken Undead

4th-level Necromancy
Casting time:	1 hour
Range:	Touch
Components:	V, S, M (An amethyst worth at least 100gp containing the soul of a humanoid, which the spell consumes)
Duration:	Instantaneous

You perform some very visceral surgery on a Medium or smaller undead to spontaneously generate a new soul within it. The creature must have an Intelligence of 5 or less, or no Intelligence score. It gains an Intelligence of 10, and knows one language that you know. Its Wisdom and Charisma scores also increase to 10 if they are not already 10 or higher.

The awakened creature is charmed by you for 1 week, or until you or your companions do anything harmful to it. When the charmed condition ends, the awakened creature chooses whether or not to remain friendly to you, depending how it was treated while it was charmed.
