You touch a Medium or smaller object and weave thoughts of dread and despair into it. When a creature comes within 5 feet of the object, starts its turn there, or touches the object, it must make an Intelligence saving throw. Creatures with an Intelligence score of 3 or lower are unaffected by this spell, as are creatures that you specify when you cast it.
On a failed save, the creature suffers 4d10 psychic damage and has its speed reduce by half until the end of its next turn. On a successful save, the creature takes only half damage, and its speed is unaffected.
A creature that touches the object affected by this spell makes the saving throw with disadvantage, and if it fails the saving throw by 5 or more, it is incapacitated until the start of its next turn.
* - (a drop of green or black ink, which you smudge onto the object)
