You create a Large hand of shimmering, translucent force in an unoccupied space that you can see within range. The hand lasts for the spell's duration, and it moves at your command, mimicking the movements of your own hand. When you summon the hand you may have it occupy 1 square, 2 squares side by side, or 2x2 squares. 

The hand is an object that has AC 21 and hit points equal to your hit point maximum. If it drops to 0 hit points, the spell ends. It has a Strength of 26 (+8) and a Dexterity of 10 (+0). The hand doesn't fill its space.

When you cast the spell and as a bonus action on your subsequent turns, you can move the hand up to 120 feet and then cause one of the following effects with it.

Bar Teleportation. This Improved version of Bigby's Hand extends into the Ethereal Plane, blocking ethereal travel through the hand. It stops any teleportation-type spell like Misty Step, Dimension Door, Etc...that requires the caster to see where they are going. Should a caster look through the spectral hand to chose their target location, the caster finds themselves in the same place. The hand also extends into the Ethereal Plane, blocking ethereal travel through the hand.

Clenched Fist. The hand strikes one creature or object within 5 feet of it. Make a melee spell attack for the hand using your game statistics. On a hit, the target takes 5d8+5 force damage.

Forceful Hand. The hand attempts to push a creature within 5 feet of it in a direction you choose. Make a check with the hand's Strength contested by the Strength (Athletics) check of the target. If the target is Medium or smaller, you have advantage on the check. If you succeed, the hand pushes the target up to 5 feet plus a number of feet equal to five times your spellcasting ability modifier. The hand moves with the target to remain within 5 feet of it.

Grasping Hand. The hand attempts to grapple a Huge or smaller creature within 5 feet of it. You use the hand's Strength score to resolve the grapple. If the target is Medium or smaller, you have advantage on the check. While the hand is grappling the target, you can use a bonus action to have the hand crush it. When you do so, the target takes bludgeoning damage equal to 2d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier.

Legendary Interposing Hand. The hand interposes itself between you and a creature you choose until you give the hand a different command. The hand moves immediately and on it's own at any point in any turn to stay between you and the target, providing you with half cover against the target. The target can't move through the hand's space if its Strength score is less than or equal to the hand's Strength score. If its Strength score is higher than the hand's Strength score, the target can move toward you through the hand's space, but that space is difficult terrain for the target. The hand will move out of turn immediately to prevent the target from moving closer to you, it will move through other objects or creatures to achieve this goal. The Spectral Hand can only move up to 120 feet total in a round, so it is possible to out run it. Special Rule: The Legendary Interposing Hand has the ability to move "with" it's target during the target's turn.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the damage from the clenched fist option increases by 2d8 and the damage from the grasping hand increases by 2d6 for each slot level above 5th.
