The Point of Life

The necrotic damage of the shadow-wreathed blade of your scythe can siphon the life force of enemies to heal the wounds of yourself and others. Make a melee spell attack against a creature within your reach. On a hit, the target takes 3d8 necrotic damage, and you can immediately transfer the damage dealt into healing to you or someone you can see by pointing in their direction.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 3rd.
