Electric Hold

Blueish-white lightning streaks out from your extended fingertips towards a creature within range, causing their muscles to seize up. Make a ranged spell attack against that creature. On a hit, the target takes 2d6 lightning damage and is grappled. On each of your turns, for the duration, you can use your action to maintain the grapple effect, again dealing 2d6 lightning damage.

The spell ends if you use your action to do anything else. The spell also ends if the target is ever outside the spell’s range or if it has total cover from you. The target can use an action to try to escape the grapple effect by making a Strength (Athletics) check against your spell save DC.

At higher levels: The damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 1.
