Bad joke

You tell an atrocious joke to an entity within range. The target must make an intelligence saving throw. On a success, the target understands the joke and takes 1d8 psychic damage. In order to target an entity, only knowledge of its presence in range is required, however you cannot target an entity through a wall blocking sound. The target automatically fails the save if the joke is told in a language they cannot understand of they are deaf.

This spell's damage increases by 1d8 when you reach 5th level (2d8), 11th level (3d8), and 17th level (4d8).
