You command the shadows to rise and serve you. Choose up to 5 corpses within range. These corpses reanimate as Shadow Soldiers, taking the form of shadowy versions of their former selves. The creatures retain their original hit points, AC, and abilities, but their type becomes undead and they gain resistance to necrotic and non-magical physical damage.
Each Shadow Soldier follows your verbal commands (no action required) and takes its turn immediately after yours. If a Shadow Soldier is reduced to 0 HP, it dissipates into shadow and cannot be revived again by this casting of Arise.
At the end of the spell’s duration, all Shadow Soldiers fade unless you use an action to permanently bind one of them to your service. You can have only one permanently bound Shadow Soldier at a time.
