Choose 1 Element - Fire, Cold, Lightning, Thunder, Force, Psychic, Acid, Poison, Radiant, or Necrotic.

Casting - You can either cast this spell as an action and spend a spell slot, or cast as a ritual that takes 1 hour. 

Action Cast - You can use your action to touch a creature and cast elemental clone. It appears in the nearest open square to you. It appears to look exactly like the creature it was created from with all their memories. They can act independently but are friendly to you and your allies and obey your commands. They take their turn immediately after yours. And you gain all their memories as they are happening. (Duration - if the clone was casted this way, it lasts 1 hour unless it is destroyed, dispelled, or the refresh feature is used and it requires concentration.)

Ritual Cast (You can only Ritual cast this spell at 5th level) - You create 2 identical arcane circles. You and the creature you wish to clone sit in one of them and then spend an hour bending your choosen element to your will. You must maintain your focus on the spell, if your concentration is broken, you must restart the spell. After an hour an elemental clone appears completed in the second circle. It appears to look exactly like the creature it was created from and has all their memories. They can act independently but are friendly to you and your allies and obey your commands. They take their turn immediately after yours. And you gain all their memories as they are happening. (Duration - If the clone was created this way, it lasts 24 hours unless it is destroyed, dispelled, or the refresh feature is used. It does require concentration.)

Refresh - The clone cannot regain its hit-points or spell slots after its used them. However if someone touches you or the clone and spends a 5th level spell slot or higher, the clone will regain all its hit-points and spell slots. In addition its time limit is extended by 2 hours times the spell slot level used. If you have multiple clones active, the level of spell slot needed to refresh them needs to equal the amount you wish to refresh.

- Refresh Scale - 1 clone equals a 5th level spell slot or higher, 2 clones equal a 7th level spell slot or higher, and 3 clones equal a 9th level spell slot. 

Unstable - If the clones hit-points are reduced to 0, then on its next turn it all it can do is use its movement. After its movement is spent it explodes with the element that was used to create it. Every creature within a 30 foot radius sphere centered on the the clone must make a DC15 dexterity saving throw or take 5d10 damage of the choosen element.
