Draconic Wardens

Draconic Wardens
Level 3 Conjuration
Casting Time: 1 minute
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M (a dragon scale and a vial of elemental ichor)
Duration: 1 hour
  Description: With a guttural chant and a flourish of your hands, you weave the raw power of dragons into the weave of magic. Two spectral draconic guardians manifest from the swirling energies, swirling with echoes of your chosen elemental affinity. Choose one of the following damage types: fire, acid, lightning, or cold. The draconic wardens appear within 30 feet of you, resembling spectral wyrms of swirling elemental energy.
  Draconic Guardians: These spectral sentinels possess the following abilities:
  Guarding Presence: Each draconic warden occupies a 5-foot-square space. A creature that enters or starts its turn within one of these spaces must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 3d6 damage of the chosen type and is pushed 10 feet away from the warden. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage and is not pushed.
Elemental Fury: As an action on your turn, you can command one of the wardens to unleash a blast of elemental energy. Choose a point within 30 feet of the warden. Each creature within 10 feet of that point must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 3d6 damage of the chosen type and is pushed 10 feet away from the point. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage and is not pushed.
Draconic Bond: You have a special connection to your wardens. You can:
  Use your bonus action to move one of the wardens up to 30 feet.
See through the eyes of one of the wardens, as if you were in its space for 1 minute (a concentration spell).
Dismiss one or both wardens early by repeating the spell's vocal component.
At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the number of wardens you can create increases by one for each slot level above 3rd.
  Classes: Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer, Dragon Knight, School of Conjuration Wizard
