Summon Alien

5th-level conjuration

Casting Time: 1 minute

Range: 90 feet

Components: V, S, M (an organ harvested from an aberration)

Duration: Concentration, up to 1 hour

You call forth an alien from beyond the bounds of reality.

Choose a 10-foot cube within range. In it, a hairline crack appears in reality, gradually expanding as you cast the spell, until it releases an alien. The alien disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.

You are immune to this alien’s horrifying appearance trait.

The alien is hostile to all creatures other than you for the duration. Roll initiative for the alien, which has its own turns. It obeys any verbal commands that you issue to it (no action required by you). If you don’t issue any commands to the alien, you lose control of it and it likely attacks other creatures on each of its turns. If your concentration is broken, the alien becomes hostile to you in addition to other creatures and it might attack you.

An uncontrolled alien cannot be dismissed by you, and it disappears 1 hour after you summoned it.

Statistics for the alien can be found here.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a 7th-level spell slot, you summon two aliens. When you cast this spell using a 9th-level spell slot, you summon three aliens.
