Shroud of Pestilence

Starting at 3rd level, you can use your action to unleash the divine energy within yourself, causing your eyes to turn into pools of darkness and two , ghostly, flightless wings to sprout from your back and a necrotic mist permeates from the wings in a 5 foot radius around you. The instant you transform, other creatures within the mist must each succeed on a Constitution saving throw (DC 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier) or become infected with [Tooltip Not Found]. A creature that enters the mist for the first time must immediately attempt the same Constitution saving throw. A creature that has succeeded on the saving throw is immune to Pestilence for the next 5 days.

Your transformation lasts for 1 minute or until you end it as a bonus action. During it, once on each of your turns, you can deal extra necrotic damage to one target when you deal damage to it with an attack or a spell. The extra necrotic damage equals your level.

Once you use this trait, you can’t use it again until you finish a long rest.
