Staff of the Python

{center}{bold}(Requires Attunement by a Cleric, Druid, or Warlock){/bold} {bold}Damage:{/bold} 1d6(1d8) bludgeoning {left}{bold}Action:{/bold} Speak the command word and throw the staff on the ground within 10 ft. It becomes a giant constrictor snake under your control, acting on its own initiative. As a bonus action, speak the word again to revert it to staff form in the snake’s space. On your turn (if not incapacitated and the snake is within 60 ft.), you can mentally command its action and movement, or issue a general order (attack, guard, etc). If reduced to 0 HP, the snake dies and the staff shatters. If it reverts before dying, it regains all HP.
