Thorakith's Pain

 Wisdom Save

You invoke the tormenting power of your patron, Thorakith, the Lord of Endless Agony. A horrifying aura manifests around you as your visage becomes a grotesque reflection of your patron’s form—shifting between fire-scorched flesh, flayed shadows, and ever-weeping eyes.

Any creature that can see you and is within a 25-feet when the spell is cast must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failure, they take 6d8 psychic damage and are Cursed with Agony for the duration.

On a success, they take half damage and are not cursed.

Caster spends half their health upon successful casting, and can only cast once per short rest.

Cursed with Agony:
While cursed, the target:

• Takes 2d8 psychic damage at the start of each of its turns.

• Suffers disadvantage on attack rolls and ability checks.

• Cannot regain hit points by any means.

A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the initial damage increases by 1d8 and the recurring damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 5th.
