This spell creates up to five invisible, mindless, shapeless, Medium forces that each perform the duties of one crew member. They can tie off ropes, hoist sails, swab decks, and other such duties including operating siege weapons. The crew members spring into existence in an unoccupied space on the ground within the confines of a ship. They have AC 10, 1 hit point, and a Strength of 2, and they can't attack. If they drop to 0 hit points, the spell ends.
Once on each of your turns as a bonus action, you can mentally command the crew to move anywhere on a ship and interact with an object. The crew can perform simple tasks that a human crew could do, such as fetching things, cleaning, mending, folding clothes, lighting fires, serving food, and pouring wine. tieing ropes, hoisting sails, and operating siege weapons. Once you give the command, the crew performs the tasks to the best of their ability until they complete the tasks, then wait for your next command.
If you command the crew to perform a task that would move them off the ship, the spell ends.
