Campaign: Dungeons of Drakkenheim
Researching the Spell: A character who can cast 1st level spells can research Delerium Orb. To complete the research, the caster must spend 2 days of downtime and 100 gp.
Contaminated Spell: When you cast this spell, you gain one level of contamination.

You draw chaotic magical power from the delerium chip held in your hand, and blast a creature you can see within range with paradoxical power. Choose one ability score, then choose cold, fire, lightning, necrotic, psychic, or radiant damage. The target must succeed on a saving throw using the chosen ability score; it takes 6d6 damage of the chosen type on a failed saving throw, or half as much on a successful one.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 2d6 for each slot level above 1st.
