You summon an old machine of challenge rating 4 or lower, which appears in an unoccupied space that you can see within range. The old machine disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.
The old machine is friendly to you and your companions for the duration. Roll initiative for the old machine, which has its own turns. It obeys any verbal commands that you issue to it (no action required by you), as long as they don't violate its alignment. If you don't issue any commands to the old machine, it defends itself from hostile creatures but otherwise takes no actions.
The GM has the old machine's statistics.
Heretical Belief: The Old Machine will seek out humanoid creatures to consume. The more humanoids it consumes the more bloated and disgusting it becomes. Once it has consumed 5 or more humanoids it will become immobile and begin to form a cocoon around itself. Once in this state it will be permanently bound to the caster regardless of the expiration of the spell. the caster may then cast this spell once more and summon another old machine. It will take the old machine 1d10 hours to fully transform but once it completes its transformation it changes types from "old machine" to "reaper". All reapers summoned by the caster have an aggressive devotion the the caster and will sacrifice themselves to protect them.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a 9th-level spell slot, you summon an old machine of challenge rating 5 or lower.
