You have mastered the fearsome spiked chain techniques of the Shadar-Kai Shadow Dancers. When you hit a creature with the spiked chain, you now do an additional 1d4 piercing damage (for a total of 2d4). Additionally, when you hit a creature with the spiked chain, you may use your bonus action to force the target to make a Dexterity saving throw (DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Dexterity Modifier) or suffer one additional effect of your choice:
- The target is grappled (escape DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Dexterity Modifier) if it is a Medium or smaller creature. Until the grapple ends, the target is restrained, and you can’t grapple another target.
- The target is knocked prone.
- The target takes 1d8 necrotic damage. This damage increases by 1d8 when you reach 5th level (2d8), 11th level (3d8), and 17th level (4d8).
