It can innately cast the following spells, requiring no material components: At will: detect evil and good, mage hand, magic circle, sacred flame, unseen servant 3/day each: bless, calm emotions, command, dimension door, invisibility, thunderwave 1/day each: banishment, flame strike, glyph of warding
