Electric Boogaloo

Make a ranged spell attack against a creature within range. An arc of electricity streams toward that creature, forming a sustained arc of lightning between you and the target. On a hit, the target takes 1d12 lightning damage, and on each of your turns for the duration, you can use a bonus action to deal 1d6 lightning damage to the target automatically. The spell ends if the target is ever outside the spell’s range or if it has total cover from you.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, you create an additional arc that can target the same or up to one additional creature for each slot level above 1st, dealing 1d6 energy with a bonus action for each additional stream.
