Ive long since hated the name and description of Chill Touch. Im planning on personalizing it as either a bolt/blast or ray type description and have it leave a glowing mark where it hits until the next turn instead of the hand clinging. Im going to keep the mechanics the same. Which do you guys think will fit the theme better, ray or bolt/blast?
I would say a bolt for no other reason that "ray of frost" is already a common spell and might lead to confusion! I know my party has almost made a meme of mixing up ray of frost and frost bite because of similar names and descriptions lol
This isn't actually a signature, just something I copy and paste onto the bottom of all my posts. Or is it? Yep, it is. Or is it..? I’m a hobbit, and the master cranial imploder of the "Oops, I Accidently Destroyed Someone's Brain" cult. Extended sig. I'm actually in Limbo, it says I'm in Mechanus because that's where I get my WiFi from. Please don't tell the modrons, they're still angry from the 'Spawning Stone' fiasco. No connection to Dragonslayer8 other than knowing them in real life.
How about "Death Blot"? You send out a clod of dark energy, making a ranged spell attack. If it hits, it causes necrotic damage and sticks to the target for 1 round, preventing it from regaining HP, etc. etc.

I describe it as a bolt of shadows that clings to the target, but the mark makes sense too.
EDIT: My character is a shadow sorcerer, so that just make sense for them. The mark idea is good otherwise.
