Curse of the Multi-Beam

When you cast this spell upon yourself, you become cursed with the inability to use spells of 1st level or higher, except for this one. You may also not use cantrips, except for the cantrip this spell provides once the curse is activated. This restriction also prevents you from using spells via magic items, potions, or any other method by which you might use a spell besides this one.

While cursed, the name of this spell becomes Multi-Beam, and using this spell again allows you to perform a ranged attack, firing a beam of elemental power. The beam has a range of 120 feet and does 2d10 damage + your spellcasting ability modifier., and if the spell is cast at a level higher than 1st, it deals an additional 1d10 damage for every level above first. The spell's damage type is your choice of acid, cold, fire, force, lightning, necrotic, poison, psychic, radiant or thunder, but you must make your choice at the start of casting the spell.

While cursed, you gain access to a cantrip version of this spell, known as Minor Multi-Beam. It acts in the same manor as Multi-Beam, described above, but its damage is 1d10 + your spellcasting ability modifier.

Alternatively, when using Multi-Beam, you can target yourself with the spell. Instead of taking damage, you instead regain hit points equal to 1d10 + your spellcasting ability modifier, and if this spell was cast at a level higher than 1st, the healing increases by 1d10 for every level above first. (The cantrip Minor Multi-Beam does not have this healing option.)

While cursed, if you do not have the ability to use spell slots, you gain the ability to us one 1st level spell slot, which you regain after a long rest. You lose this spell slot if you gain the ability to use spell slots via another method, or when this curse is removed.

If remove curse is cast on you, or an any affect that removes curses is used on you, this spell ends immediately. When the spell ends, its name returns to being Curse of the Multi-Beam, and this spell's effect returns to what it originally was. You also lose the cantrip Minor Multi-Beam.
