Cause Bear

You summon fey spirits that take the form of bears and appear in unoccupied space that you can see within range. Choose one of the following options for what appears:

• One bear of challenge rating 2 or lower
• Two bears of challenge rating 1 or lower
• Four bears of challenge rating 1/2 or lower

Each bear is also considered fey, and it disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.

The summoned bears are friendly to you and your companions. Roll initiative for the summoned bears as a group, which has its own turns. They obey any verbal commands that you issue to them (no action required by you). If you don't issue any commands to them, they defend themselves from hostile creatures, but otherwise take no actions.

The GM has the bears' statistics. Sample bears can be found below.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using certain higher-level spell slots, you choose one of the summoning options above, and more bears appear: twice as many with a 5th-level slot, three times as many with a 7th-level slot, and four times as many with a 9th-level slot.
