This spell creates an undead servant within 30 feet of you. Choose a pile of bones or a corpse of a Medium or Small humanoid within range. Your spell imbues the target with a foul mimicry of life, raising it as an undead creature. The target becomes a skeleton if you chose bones or a zombie if you chose a corpse (the GM has the creature's game statistics).
Your initial command is part of the summoning spell. On each of your next turns you can command the servant (using your action) to take 1 action (move, attack, Defend) or a simple command such as "Go to this location". This undead understands your will and does not physically need to know the location as long as you do.
The creature is under your control for 1 minute at which point it returns to death.
At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot 3rd level of or higher, you gain 1 additional servant.
