You summon a planar force guardian within 5 ft to transport and protect cargo weighing up to 100 lbs to a specific location or creature away from you. If the cargo is multiple objects, it must be placed in one container.

Traveler. It automatically knows where you want it to go and will take the safest, most efficient route to get there, avoiding obstacles and danger, while never leaving its cargo behind.

The spectral guardian has a movement speed of 60 ft, AC 18, hit points equal to 3d10 multiplied by the caster’s level, and can only take the dash or dodge action. If its hit points are reduced to 0, it disappears while dropping its cargo.

Defender. If anything within 30 ft attacks it, shows aggressive intent towards it, or tries to steal its cargo, they must make a Charisma saving throw or become charmed and defend it while within 30 ft, but don’t follow. Otherwise, their speed is reduced to zero until they’re no longer within 30 ft of the cargo.
