Choose a set of armor worth at least 400 gp, that is not being worn or carried, within range. The spell animates the armor and it becomes a creature under your control until the spell ends or until reduced to 0 hit points.
The creature is friendly to you and your companions. The guardian obeys verbal commands that you issue to it (no action required by you). It can perform simple tasks or it can follow a general command, such as to guard a particular chamber or corridor. In combat, the creature shares your initiative count, but it takes its turn immediately after yours. If you don’t issue any commands, it takes the Dodge and will use its reaction to protect allies, but will take no other actions.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the creature assumes the higher level for that casting wherever it uses the spell’s level in its stat block.
