Dread Strikes

You manipulate the shadows of a creature within range that you can see, causing them to apperate into weapons or stakes made out of shadow and impale the target. The target must make a dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, the target takes 8d10 necrotic damage. A creature that does not cast a shadow and is not near any shade cannot be targeted by this spell.

When you cast this spell with a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for every slot level above 4th.
