Blade of Pain and Fear (Black Magic)

A three-foot-long column of disembodied gnashing teeth springs forth from your hand. It counts as a simple melee weapon that you're proficient with, but you can use your spellcasting ability modifier instead of Strength for attack and damage rolls. It deals 2d10 slashing damage. A creature that you successfully deal damage to must also make a Wisdom saving throw or become frightened of you until the start of your next turn.

If you drop the weapon or throw it, it disappears at the end of the turn.

At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a 3rd or 4th level slot, the damage is 3d10. At 5th or 6th level, it's 4d10. At 7th level or higher, it's 5d10.
