Primal Companion
3rd-level Beast Master feature
When you finish a long rest, you can magically summon a primal beast, which draws strength from your bond with nature. The beast is friendly to you and your companions and obeys your commands. Choose its stat block-Beast of the Land, Beast of the Sea, or Beast of the Sky. You also determine the kind of animal the beast is, choosing a kind appropriate for the stat block. Whatever kind you choose, the beast bears primal markings, indicating its mystical origin. As an action, you can dismiss the beast to a harmless demiplane as long as you are within 30 feet of it, or resummon it in a space within 5 feet of you.
In combat, the beast acts during your turn. It can move and use its reaction on its own, but the only action it takes is the Dodge action, unless you take a bonus action on your turn to command it to take an action in its stat block or some other action. If you are incapacitated, or not present, the beast can take any action of its choice.
If the beast has died within the last hour, you can use your action to touch it and spend 1 mana. The beast returns to life after 1 minute with all its hit points restored. When you finish a long rest, you can summon a different primal beast. The new beast appears in an unoccupied space within 5 feet of you, and you choose its stat block and appearance. If you already have a beast from this feature, it vanishes when the new beast appears.
