You weave together dark threads of fate and partially conjure the wrath of a powerful Remnant, allowing them to reach in to this world at your behest. Until the spell ends, your hands pulse with ominous energy, allowing you to puppeteer shadowy claws that suddenly reach at enemies out of the ether. This attack counts as a melee spell attack, but may originate from anywhere that you can see within 30 feet of you. It deals 2d8 psychic damage plus your spell ability modifier on a hit. In addition, if you would normally have advantage on an attack with the Claws of Uhr, you may choose to forgo the advantage to make two attacks instead.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a 3rd- or 4th-level spell slot, the damage increases to 3d8. When you cast it using a 5th- or 6th-level spell slot, the damage increases to 4d8. When you cast it using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the damage increases to 5d8.

Danger: Entreating with the mysterious entities of the Veil known as Remnants is notoriously dangerous, and the creator of this spell is famous not only for re-discovering the school of Conjuration, but for having gone absolutely insane before suddenly and mysteriously disappearing. The spell itself seems safe enough, but who truly knows?

"If we are to understand the creatures that peer at us- hungry and unseeing- from within the vast Realm Between, we must also understand what they were before their shadow was catastrophically burned upon the fabric of this barrier; When we understand this, we can see the great tragedy of the world, and we are left to wonder even still: Are these shades merely the images of those spirits who fell, and therefore emanations of the Realm itself? Or are they minded, individual, even in their shattered state? Moreover, the question that haunts me in the darkest nights: what has replaced the fallen heaven? What now rests in that empty space? If an absence, a non-being, a space where once something was, can have power and form in and of itself, what then of an entire realm, a world once affixed upon the heavens? What shadow, what empty after-image now moors itself to the branches of the world-tree in place of our heaven?"
