Animate lesser undead

This spell creates an undead servant. Choose a corpse of a creature that has hands within range. The spell rips the hands from the corpse and animates it as an undead creature. The target becomes a crawling claw

On any of your turns, you can use a bonus action to command your undead minions if those creatures are within 60 feet of you (if you control multiple creatures, you can command any of your minions). You decide whatever your minions do. If you issue no commands, the creature only defends itself against hostile creatures. Once given an order, the creature continues to follow it until its task is complete.

The creature is under your control for 4 hours, after which it stops obeying any command you've given it, and it turns hostile against whatever creature is closest to it.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3th level or higher, you animate or reassert control over two additional claws for each slot level above 3rd. Each creature requires one hand, and the rest of the corpse doesn't matter
