You perform an elaborate ritual involving music and incantations, infusing a carefully crafted doll with magical life. The doll must be made of a specific material such as wood, steel, iron, stone, or any other durable substance.

Upon completion of the ritual, you touch the doll, and it animates. It becomes a creature under your control, using the statistics of a Tiny Servant. The doll remains animated until it drops to 0 hit points, at which point it reverts to its original form, and any remaining damage carries over to that form.

As a bonus action, you can mentally command the creature if it is within 120 feet of you. If you control multiple creatures with this spell, you can command any or all of them at the same time, issuing the same command to each one. You decide what action the creature will take and where it will move during its next turn, or you can issue a simple, general command, such as to fetch a key, stand watch, or stack some books. If you issue no commands, the servant does nothing other than defend itself against hostile creatures. Once given an order, the servant continues to follow that order until its task is complete.

Limitations: You can only cast this spell as a ritual, and it takes 10 minutes to cast. It can only be performed once per long rest.

At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you can animate two additional objects for each slot level above 3rd.
