- V, S, M (16 kg of sand)

You manipulate 16 kg of sand, imbuing it with powerful elemental desert energy, forming a Sand Dragon.
The Sand Dragon is an elemental construct under your command. It manifests in an unoccupied space you can see within range. This corporeal form uses the Sand Dragon stat block. The creature vanishes when it drops to 0 hit points or when the spell ends.
The creature is an ally to you and your companions. In combat, it shares your initiative count but takes its turn immediately after yours. It obeys your mental or verbal commands (no action required from you). If you issue none, it takes the Dodge action and uses its movement to avoid danger.
