Draconic Avatar

Level 9 Conjuration
Casting Time: 1 minute
Range: 1 mile
Components: V, S, M (a dragon's heart preserved in amber and a chalice overflowing with molten gold)
Duration: Up to 1 minute (concentration)

Description: With a whispered invocation and a tremor that runs through the very earth, you rend open the veil between worlds, summoning a majestic entity of draconic power. From swirling clouds of elemental energy, an awe-inspiring avatar of your chosen dragon type – red, white, blue, green, black, or bronze – descends upon the battlefield. This colossal wyrm, woven from pure magic and infused with your draconic essence, stands as a towering testament to your mastery of this ancient magic.

Draconic Majesty: The Draconic Avatar possesses the following attributes:

Imposing Presence: The avatar fills a 100-foot-radius sphere with its draconic might. Each creature within the sphere at the start of your turn must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, a creature is frightened of the avatar for 1 minute. On a successful save, the creature is immune to this effect for the duration of the spell.
Elemental Fury: As an action, you can command the avatar to unleash a devastating breath weapon. Choose one of the following damage types: fire, acid, lightning, or cold. Each creature within a 150-foot cone in front of the avatar must make a Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 14d6 damage of the chosen type and is pushed 20 feet away from the avatar. On a successful save, the creature takes half damage and is not pushed.
Draconic Might: The avatar can make melee attacks with its claws and bite. These attacks are considered magical and deal 5d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier damage of the chosen dragon type. Additionally, the avatar has resistance to all non-magical damage.
Shared Flight: While the avatar is active, you can gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed for the duration of the spell.
Draconic Bond: You share a powerful connection with the summoned avatar. You can:

Use your bonus action to move the avatar up to 60 feet within its sphere of presence.
See through the avatar's eyes as if you were in its space for 1 minute (a concentration spell).
Dismiss the avatar early by repeating the spell's vocal component.
At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 10th level or higher, the damage dice for the Draconic Avatar's breath weapon and melee attacks increase by one die size for each slot level above 9th.
