Summon Animal Spirit

You gather energy from the nature around you and sculpt it into a powerful spirit animal, appearing in an unoccupied space you can see within range. It uses the Animal Spirit stat block, and you select either the Earth, Sea, or Sky option when you cast the spell. The creature disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.

The creature is an ally to you and your companions. In combat, it shares your initiative count, and takes its turn immediately after yours. It obeys your verbal commands. If you don’t issue any command, it takes the Dodge action and moves only to avoid hazards.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, certain values increase in its stat block.
