Create Bogun

You infuse living magic into a small mannequin that you have created from plant matter, transforming it into a special construct called a bogun. It is your faithful companion, and it dies if you die.

Before casting the spell, a physical form must be fashioned out of plant matter to hold the magical energy. A bit of your own body, such as a few strands of hair or a drop of blood, must also be incorporated into this crude mannequin. You may assemble the body personally or hire someone else to do it. All materials used become permanent parts of the bogun and are sustained by the magic that binds it together. Once the body is finished, you must animate it through an extended magical ritual that requires three consecutive days to complete. You must labor for at least 8 hours each day in complete solitude in a nature setting; any interruption from another sentient creature undoes the magic. If you are personally assembling the bogun's body, that process and the ritual can be performed together. When not actively working on the ritual, you must rest and can perform no other activities except eating, sleeping, or talking. Missing a day causes the process to fail and the ritual must be started anew, though the previously crafted body can be reused. On the final day of the ritual, you cast this spell.

You can have only one bogun at a time. If you cast this spell again while your bogun lives, the spell fails. As long as you are on the same plane of existence, you are aware if your bogun is living or dead.
