📜 Full Spell Description
You lash out with a faint spectral tether of cold, pale light. Choose one creature you can see within range. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw.
On a Failed Save
The creature becomes Grave‑Tethered:
-
Its speed is reduced by 5 feet.
-
It takes 1d8 necrotic damage immediately.
-
At the start of each of its turns, it takes 1d4 necrotic damage as the tether continues to drain its essence.
-
You gain temporary hit points equal to the necrotic damage dealt.
-
The creature’s shadow flickers unnaturally, granting you advantage on your next Intimidation check made before the spell ends.
On a Successful Save
The creature takes half the initial necrotic damage and suffers no further effects.
🪦 Revenant Synergy (1st‑Level Version)
Because Valerian is undead:
-
When you gain temporary hit points from this spell, your voice briefly echoes with a hollow undertone, causing creatures within 10 feet to have disadvantage on their next attempt to frighten you.
🎭 Visual Casting Description
A thin, ghostly thread shoots from Valerian’s gauntlet, hooking into the target’s shadow. The tether pulses like a dying heartbeat, draining warmth from the air.
