You manipulate the corpse of one creature you can see within range, creating up to two of the following effects:

• The corpse contorts its body in a manner of your choosing, even if it wouldn't be able to do so in life.

• The corpse speaks a short message in a language that you know, even if it lacks the parts that normally govern speech.

• The corpse moves up to 10 feet along the ground in a direction of your choice.

• The corpse grapples or shoves one creature within 5 feet of it. Instead of a Strength (Athletics) check, you can make a melee spell attack instead. If you choose the grapple option, the grapple ends automatically at the start of your next turn.
