You create a pair of grasping hands made of magical force. Make a ranged spell attack against a creature you can see within range. On a hit, the creature takes 1d6 Force damage and has the Restrained condition until the end of your next turn.

If the target has 1 neck and needs it in order to breathe, they can’t do so while affected by this spell, and they can't use any ability that requires them to speak.

A creature Restrained by the hands can take an action to make a Strength (Athletics) check against your spell save DC. If it succeeds, it is no longer Restrained.

If you hit a target that is already Restrained by this spell, and you didn't roll a natural 20 on your attack, it can use its Reaction to attempt a Dexterity Saving Throw to leap away right before being hit by the next pair of hands. On a success, the attack misses, the target is no longer Restrained by this spell, and it gains 10ft of movement (if their Speed allows it) which it must immediately use during that Reaction to move at least 5ft way from their current location. If they somehow cannot move, your attack still hits.

Using a Higher-Level Spell Slot. If you cast this spell with a level 4 spell slot or higher, you can affect 1 additional target for every 2 slot levels above 2nd. Make a separate ranged spell attack roll for each target.
