Energy Specialist

Prerequisite: Spellcasting or Pact Magic class feature

You have explored the mysteries of one of the energies of your magic, gaining you the following benefits:

This feat can be taken multiple times, but you must choose a different damage type each time.
Choose one damage type from the table below. You apply half your proficiency bonus to your spells' damage rolls of the chosen type.
Whenever a creature rolls a 1 on the d20 for a saving throw from a spell you cast that deals damage of the chosen type and it fails the save, the spell inflicts a special effect on it. If you critically hit a creature with a spell attack from a spell you cast that deals damage of the chosen type, the spell also inflicts the special effect on the target. The special effect depends on the damage type, as shown in the table below:

Damage Type	Special Effect
Acid	The target grants enemies advantage on attacks made against it until the end of its next turn, and if it wears nonmagical armor, that armor is corroded and loses 3 AC permanently.
Cold	The target is restrained until the start of its next turn, and has its speed reduced by half until the end of its next turn.
Fire	The target is lit ablaze. It takes fire damage equal to your proficiency bonus at the start of each of its turns until a creature takes an action to douse the fire.
Lightning	The target is knocked prone and is unable to take reactions until the end of its next turn.
Necrotic	The target can't regain hit points until the end of its next turn, and if the target isn't an undead or a construct, you gain temporary hit points equal to your proficiency bonus.
Poison	The target is poisoned until the end of its next turn. If it was already poisoned, it becomes paralyzed until the start of its next turn instead.
Psychic	The target is frightened of you or charmed by you (your choice) until the end of its next turn.
Radiant	The target has disadvantage on attack rolls that rely on sight until the end of its next turn.
Thunder	The target is deafened until the end of its next turn, and you can choose to push the target up to 15 feet away from you.
