You call forth a magical swarm. It manifests in an unoccupied space that you can see within range. This corporeal form uses the Swarm Spirit stat block. When you cast the spell, choose from Quippers, Spiders, or Wasps. The swarm resembles the creatures of your choice, which determines certain traits in its stat block. The creature disappears when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.
The creature is an ally to you and your companions. In combat, the creature shares your initiative count, but takes its turn immediately after yours. It obeys your verbal commands (no action required by you). If you don't issue any, it takes the Dodge action and uses its move to avoid damage.
