Cryosphere of Control

A 6-inch shard of ice erupts from your pointing finger toward a creature that you can see within range that then expands rapidly into a sphere of ice that wraps around the targets body. The creature must make a Dexterity saving throw. The target takes 6d8 cold damage on a failed save, or half as much on a succesful one. On a failed save the target is then restrained until the spell ends.

A creature restrained by the ice can use its action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC. On a success, it frees itself.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the initial damage increases by 1d8 for each slot above 5th.
