An amulet adorned with a small blue gem made from condensed spider silk. When attuned to it, the wearer gains limited control over spiders. The wearer is able to communicate with specific spiders and ask them for favors for one hour each day (once per long rest).
The wearer can only communicate with a certain amount of spiders at the time. The choice must be made before using the amulet.
(A) 6 small sized spiders
(B) 3 medium sized spiders
(C)1 large sized spider
Note: The wearer can only communicate with spiders that are in the surrounding area. The amulet does not summon new spiders into existence. This means that the spiders will be different based on the area where they are called upon (e.g., water spiders if used under water, desert spiders if used in a desert, etc.). The spell works through walls, water and the ground, for there are many types of spiders.
When using this item, the wearer's spider sense can call the selected amount of spiders, provided they are currently in a 120 ft radius around the wearer. This means that if there are currently no spiders in the spell's radius, no spiders will come. Using the amulet this way does not expend its one daily charge.
Additionally, the wearer cannot order the spiders to do anything that would directly harm the spiders (e.g., order them to march into fire). The spiders can also participate in combat. They act on the wearer's initiative and use their own stats (found in their respective DnD 5e stat blocks).
Note 2: The wearer does not control the spiders. The spiders are called upon, take a moment to arrive (depending on their size and the area) and are very inclined to help the wearer of the amulet. They see the wearer as sort of a shepherd, a friendly figure. However, the spiders are of their own free will and will not help the wearer if they are treated poorly. In contrast if treated well, the spiders might decide to stick around the wearer for longer than the spell lasts. After the spell's duration however the wearer won't be able to communicate with the spiders any more than any other character. The spiders might still help, but there will definitely be a language barrier.
Calling the spiders into combat is an action.
Notes: Control, Necklace
