Swarm Of Spores

You release a cloud of spores around yourself that transforms you into a swarm of giant insects. The swarm consists of a number of insects equal to twice your druid level, and you can choose from the following options:

- Beetles: The swarm becomes a mass of giant beetles that are immune to poison and resistant to slashing damage.

- Wasps: The swarm becomes a group of giant wasps that can make a poison sting attack with their attack action.

- Spiders: The swarm becomes a cluster of giant spiders that can make a bite attack with their attack action. A creature hit by this attack must make a Constitution saving throw or be paralyzed for 1 minute.

While in this form, you can move through spaces as small as 1 inch without squeezing, and you have a flying speed of 30 feet. You also gain the benefits of the Giant Insect spell, including increased hit points and damage.

Any creature that starts its turn within 10 feet of you takes 2d6 poison damage. A creature can take this damage only once per turn. In addition, while you are in this form, you can use an action to release a swarm of insects within 5 feet of you. The swarm covers a 15-foot cube and attacks all creatures within it. Each creature in the area must make a Dexterity saving throw or take 4d6 piercing damage. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage.

The swarm can also disperse into a cloud of spores, which have the same effect as the Spore spell. Any creature that starts its turn within 10 feet of the swarm takes 1d6 poison damage. A creature can take this damage only once per turn.

At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, you can choose to summon a larger swarm. For each slot level above 6th, the swarm consists of an additional number of insects equal to twice your druid level.
