You transmit an arcane disease from you to one creature that you can see within range which must make a Constitution saving throw or be affected by this spell for the duration.
If an affected creature hits another creature with a melee attack, the target must make a Constitution saving throw or be affected by this spell for the duration. At the end of an affected creature’s turn, it takes 3d8 necrotic damage and makes another Constitution saving throw. On a successful save, the effect ends for it.
If a creature affected by this spell dies, the spell ends for that creature. Successfully casting dispel magic or lesser restoration on a creature will end this spell's effects on that creature.
At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 4th.
