Seen Servant

 

Seen Servant (Ritual)

Level: 1st

Casting Time: 1 Minute (Ritual)

Range/Area: 60 ft.

Components: V, S, M *

Duration: Until Dispelled

School: Conjuration

Attack/Save: None

Damage/Effect: Control

This spell creates a visible, dim witted, cowardly, misshapen, Medium greyish lump of mediocre peasantry  named Bort (he/it) .  Bort performs simple tasks at your command until the spell ends, with lack of enthusiasm and much complaints.

Bort springs into existence in an unoccupied space on the ground within range. It has AC 10, unlimited Hit Point, 6 in all stats except constitution (which is so high it cannot be measured) and a peculiar odor.  Bort is a pacifist and will not engage in violence directly (although it could be convinced to be a distraction etc).  Bort might be able to intimidate children, small goblins and people who care about property value.

Once on each of your turns as a Bonus Action, you can mentally command Bort to move up to 15 feet and interact with an object. Bort can perform simple tasks that a human could do, such as fetching things, cleaning, mending, folding clothes, lighting fires, inspecting turnips, serving food, and pouring drinks. Once you give the command, Bort performs the task to the best of its ability until it completes the task, then waits for your next command.  Left to his own device, Bort smokes copious amounts of tobacco, drinks modest amount of beer, attempts to smuggle cabbages and *very occasionally* pulls levers and drinks unatended potions. 

Bort is invulnerable and indestructible.  Despite this, he is a vehement coward and will refuse to endanger himself.

If you command the servant to perform a task that would move it more than 60 feet away from you, Bort gets really anxious and will do whatever is needed to get back to your side.  Bort can be dismissed with remove curse, wish, death of the caster or the perfect cabbage pie.  Other methods, such as hurling into a volcano or fed to a purple worm have failed.

* 1 copper a day, every day. He will get it
