Afflicting Whispers

3rd-level enchantment

Casting Time: 1 action

Range: 60 ft.

Components: V

Duration: Concentration, up to 1 minute

You whisper a painful, arcane message to a creature within range, causing their mind to be wracked with pain.

The creature must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature takes 2d8 psychic damage and you continue your painful whispers against that creature. For the duration, you can use your action to deal 2d8 psychic damage to that creature on your turn.

The creature can repeat the Wisdom saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell at 4th level or higher, the damage you deal both initially and at the start of each of your turns increases by 1d8 for every slot level above 3rd.
