Conjure Swarm

4th level conjuration

Casting Time 1 action

Range 60 feet

Components V, S

Duration Concentration, up to 1 hour

You summon swarms of insects, rodents, or other tiny creatures that appear in a space within range that you can see. Choose one of the following options for what appears:

• One swarm of challenge rating 2 or lower
• Two swarms of challenge rating 1 or lower
• Four swarms of challenge rating 1/2 or lower
• Eight swarms of challenge rating 1/4 or lower

A summoned swarm disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.

The summoned swarms are friendly to you and your companions. Roll initiative for the summoned creatures as a group, which have their own turns. They obey any verbal commands that you issue to them (no action required by you). If you don’t issue any commands to them, they defend themselves from hostile creatures, but otherwise take no actions.

At higher levels. When you cast this spell using certain higher level spell slots, you choose one of the summoning options above, and more creatures appear: twice as many with a 6th level slot and three times as many with an 8th level slot.
