A weaker form of conjure minor elementals, this allows the caster to summon a single elemental of CR ½ or less. The elemental appears in an unoccupied space that you can see within range. An elemental summoned by this spell disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.
The summoned elemental is friendly to you and your companions for the duration. Roll initiative for the elemental, which has its own turns. It obeys any verbal commands that you issue to it (no action required by you). If you don’t issue any commands to the elemental, it defends itself from hostile creatures but otherwise takes no actions.
At Higher levels. When you cast this spell with a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you no longer need to concentrate on the spell.
