Corpse Puppet

This spell creates an undead servant from a fresh corpse (dead less then 24 hours). Choose a corpse of a Medium or Small humanoid within range that with a Challenge Rating equal to or lower then the spell slot used . Your spell imbues the target with a foul mimicry of life, raising it as an undead creature. The target becomes a zombie. (the GM has the creature's game statistics).

On each of your turns, you can use a bonus action to mentally command any creature you made with this spell if the creature is within 60 feet of you. You decide what action the creature will take and where it will move during its next turn, or you can issue a general command, such as to guard a particular chamber or corridor. If you issue no commands, the creature only defends itself against hostile creatures. Once given an order, the creature continues to follow it until its task is complete.

The creature is under your control for 1 minute, after which the Necrotic energy controlling the corpse dissipates.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the maximum CR that can be raised increases to the spell level used.
