You speak a word of power that can cause the target to scream uncontrollably for the duration. The target has some ability to influence what they are screaming but it is largely unintelligible.

While screaming, the target is unable to cast any spell that requires verbal components and any creature able to hear the effected creature within 10 feet is also deafened. Creatures who are unable to speak are unaffected by this spell.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, you may target another creature for each slot above 1st. The targets must be within 30 feet of each other when you target them.
