You summon a creature with the undead trait of CR 1/2 from the body of a dead being. The undead obeys your commands; however, it requires the use of a bonus action from the summoner to command it. The undead cannot use Legendary Actions or Mythic Actions if it has them, but retains its legendary resistances. If the summoned creature has reactions and something triggers them, it can use them normally. A creature summoned by this spell cannot summon other creatures, even if it has spells or abilities to do so. The undead acts during its turn in any order of movement or action usage and shares the same initiative as you. An undead summoned by this spell lasts 24 hours or until its life ends. Only one undead can be summoned by this spell at a time.
