Spectral strings erupt from your fingertips and spread through the air in a 20-foot-radius sphere centered on a point you can see within range. Each creature of your choice in the area must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become magically converted into a living puppet for the duration.
A puppetified creature is restrained, incapacitated, and its speed becomes 0. Its body partially hardens into lacquered flesh and wooden joints while remaining alive and aware of its surroundings.
While a creature is affected by this spell, you can move it up to 20 feet once on each of your turns. This movement does not provoke opportunity attacks.
Additionally, while within 5 feet of a puppetified creature, you can choose for an attack targeting you to instead target one puppetified creature within 5 feet of you.
A creature affected by this spell repeats the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.
A creature can use a magical slashing attack against the spectral strings surrounding a puppetified creature, ending the effect on a hit.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the radius increases by 10 feet for each slot level above 4th.
