Dark energy creeps up on a creature, being particularly malevolent against the weakened.

You point at one creature you can see within range, and the sound of a dolorous bell fills the air around it for a moment, ringing out to a distance of 10m. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or take 1d8 DARK damage. If the target is missing any of its hit points, it instead takes 1d12 DARK damage.

The spell's damage increases by one die when you reach 5th level (2d8 or 2d12), 11th level (3d8 or 3d12), and 17th level (4d8 or 4d12).

For whom does the bell toll? It tolls for thee.
