You summon oozes that appear in unoccupied spaces that you can see within range. You choose one the following options for what appears:
- One ooze of challenge rating 4 or lower
- Two oozes of challenge rating 2 or lower
- Eight oozes of challenge rating 1/2 or lower.
An ooze summoned by this spell disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends. The summoned creatures are hostile to all non-ooze creatures. Roll initiative for the summoned creatures as a group, which has its own turns. At the start of its turn, it moves toward and attacks the nearest non-ooze it can perceive. If two or more creatures are equally near, it picks one at random. If it cannot see any potential enemies, the ooze moves in a random direction in search of foes. As part of casting the spell, you can use the bucket of slime to coat yourself in it. The summoned oozes will not attack the caster if coated in this slime.
The GM has the creatures' statistics.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using certain higher-level spell slots, you choose one of the summoning options above, and more creatures appear: twice as many with a 7th-level slot and three times as many with an 9th-level slot.
