When you hit with a spell attack, you can use your reaction to infuse the arcane of your spell to infect the target’s life essence. While branded, you always know the direction to the branded creature, and each time the branded creature deals damage to you, the creature takes psychic damage equal to your Intelligence modifier (minimum of 1 damage).
Your brand lasts until concentration breaks, or you dismiss it, or you apply a brand to another creature. Your brand counts as a spell for the purposes of dispel magic, and the spell level is equal to half of your blood hunter level (maximum of 9th level spell).
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd or 4th level, you can maintain your concentration on the spell for up to 8 hours. When you use a spell slot of 5th level or higher, you can maintain your concentration on the spell for up to 24 hours. When you use a 6th level or higher, it lasts until dispelled.
