Duration: Instantaneous
Choose up to two corpse of creatures that have an undead equivalent. You raise the creatures' bodies as their undead equivalent, as long as the undead forms have a combined challenge rating no higher than 1.
As a bonus action on each of your turns, you can mentally command any creature you animated with this spell if the creatures is within 120 feet of you (if you control multiple creatuers, 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 corrider. If you issue no commands, the creature 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 24 hours, after which it stops obeying any commands you have given it. To maintain control of the creature for another 24 hours, you must cast this spell on the creature before the current 24 hour period ends. The use of the spell reasserts your control over up to two creatures you have animated with this spell a combined challenge rating no higher than one.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a 4th level spell slot or higher, the CR limit increases by one for each level above 3rd.
