You imbue the target with a piece of your soul granting it sapience for a time. If the target is a creature, increase its mental scores as follows: +6 to its lowest mental attribute score, +4 to its second lowest, and +2 to its highest. If the target was flora, it becomes a creature with Str 11 + size modifiers, Con 12, Dex 9 + size modifiers, 8 Int, 13 Wis, and 10 Cha and a base speed equal to 5 feet + 5 feet per size above Fine that it is and a reach equal to 0 + 5 feet per size above Tiny that it is. It has natural armor equal to 1 + 1 more per size above Fine and it has a bite, claw, or slam attack (pick one) dealing damage as an unarmed strike for its size. The target becomes sapient and innately knows one language that the caster knows (chosen by the caster). It has no loyalty to the caster, but having just come to life, it is naive and childish. The target is a level 1 creature for this duration. If you cast this spell on the same target multiple times, it remembers its previous existence.
Rank 2: The duration increases to 1 day.
Rank 3: The duration increases to 1 week.
Rank 4: The duration increases to 1 month.
Rank 5: The duration becomes instant, permanently breaking off a piece of your soul to plant the seed of an entirely new soul into the target. The spell ends but the creature remains with the benefits of the spell as its own independent creature. When you cast at this tier, you become Demoralized, Distracted, and Stupefied until you take a long rest, as your soul recovers from the fracturing.
Rank 6: A short rest allows you to recover from the Demoralized, Distracted, and Stupefied conditions caused by this spell.
Reliable (+1): Each time this upgrade is added, it reduces the failure chance by 25% to a minimum of 0%.
Fast Cast (+1): Casting time reduced to 2 hours. If this upgrade is applied a second time, it reduces it to 10 minutes or 1 minute if applied a third time. A fourth time reduces it to 3 actions.
