Earworm

You create a catchy tune or string of words that affects a target of your choice that you can see within range and is capable of hearing you. The target then takes psychic damage on their turn and spreads the earworm to an additional target within 30 feet of them, provided that the target is capable of hearing.

A target must make a Wisdom saving throw. The target takes 6d6 psychic damage on a failed save and half on a successful one.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the earworm can be spread to an additional target for each slot level above 5th.
