The number of clones you can produce equals your DEX modifier (minimum 1) and must roll an attack equal to your proficiency bonus plus DEX modifier. Each clone deals 1d10 + DEX modifier cold, fire, lightning, acid, or poison of choice per use. After each attack the clone then dissipates, this ability can only be used once per short or long rest.

Marked for Death

Starting at 17th level, you become a master of death's call. Each of your afterimages, or even yourself can leave a mark (some sort of small sigil) on the target after a hit. With each tick, your clones now deal an additional die of damage. 

After a max of 6 sigils have been place onto the target, your 6th successful hit causes each mark to explode in a streak of glory. Each dice deals 2d8 worth of force damage. 

 

This ability can only be used once per long rest.
