Controlled.

Living wicks cannot move, attack, or perform actions when they are not lit. Living wicks only respond to the telepathic commands of the individual that lit them.
Light.

Activated living wicks produce light as a torch.
Melting.

A living wick loses one hit point for every 24 hours it remains lit.

Actions

Slam. Melee Weapon Attack: +2 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 3 (1d6) bludgeoning damage.
Consume Self.

A living wick can be commanded to rapidly burn through the remains of its wick, creating a devastating fireball. All creatures within 20 feet of the living wick take 7 (2d6) fire damage, or half damage with a successful DC 13 Dexterity saving throw. The fire spreads around corners and ignites flammable objects in the area that aren’t being worn or carried. The wick is reduced to a lifeless puddle of wax.
