Description

You channel necrotic spiritual power to your hand, changing it into a withered specter of itself. Make a melee spell attack against one creature within your reach. On hit, it takes 1d8 necrotic damage, and you can choose to gain temporary hit points equal to half the necrotic damage dealt.

Cantrip Upgrade: The damage of this spell increases by 1d8 at 5th (2d8), 11th (3d8), and 17th level (4d8).
