Damage/Effect

You summon the souls of creatures recently dead, holding a small object taken from up to two corpses of creatures dead less than 100 days you call their spirit back from death. The process of being dragged back to life is destructive to the soul and those you summon come back as twisted versions of themselves. For each body you have a trinket from you summon one Shadow.

As a bonus action on each of your turns, you can mentally command any creature you summoned with this spell if the creature is within 120 feet of you (if you control multiple creatures, you can command any or all of them at the same time, issuing the same command to each one). You decide what action the creature will take and where it will move during its next turn, or you can issue a general command, such as to guard a particular chamber or corridor. 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 creatures summoned by this spell obey the commands of whoever possesses the trinkets used to summon them, if they are given an order which that creature wouldn't follow in life it can attempt a Wisdom save against your spell save DC ignoring that order on a success, on a failure that creature cannot attempt to ignore orders for twenty four hours.
