Dark Lance

A 1-foot lance of pure shadowstuff flings forwards towards a creature within range. Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On a hit, the target takes 1d8 piercing damage and the lance becomes lodged into the target. At the beginning of your turns, a target who was hit by this spell takes 1d4 + your spellcasting modifier additional psychic damage until either 3 rounds pass or the target spends an action to remove the lance as the dark energy of the Shadowfell courses through their veins. In addition, when the target of this spell is in dim light or darkness, you make the attack roll with advantage.

At higher levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you can create 1 additional lance which can target a separate creature for each slot level above 2nd.
