Lunar Spirit (5e Spell)
| 3rd-level Conjuration | |
| Casting time: | 1 minute |
|---|---|
| Range: | 90 feet |
| Components: | V, S, E (a night with an unobstructed view of the moon) |
| Duration: | Instantaneous |
You call upon the energy of the moon, manifesting its light into a spiritual companion. This creature appears in an unoccupied space that you can see within range, and it uses the Lunar Spirit stat block. The phase of the moon when you cast this spell (Waxing, Waning, New, or Full) determines certain traits in its stat block. The creature resembles an animal of your choice that is associated with the moon such as a wolf, rabbit, or deer. The creature disappears at dawn or when it drops to 0 hit points.
The creature is an ally to you and your companions. In combat, the creature shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. It obeys your verbal commands (no action required by you). If you don't issue any, it takes the Dodge action and uses its move to avoid danger.
If you cast this spell more than once during the same night, there is a 50 percent chance for subsequent castings of this spell to fail, wasting the spell slot used to cast it.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, use the higher level wherever the spell’s level appears in the stat block.
