  Description: With a mischievous wink and a playful flick of your wrist, you send a spark of draconic energy dancing through the air. Choose one of the following effects:
  Glitterdust: The spark explodes in a shower of shimmering scales, dazzling a creature of your choice within range. The creature must make a Constitution saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is blinded for 1 minute. On a successful save, the creature is only dazzled for 1 round.
Tickles: The spark dances around a creature of your choice within range, leaving behind a trail of tingling energy. The creature has disadvantage on its next Dexterity saving throw before the start of your next turn.
Distraction: The spark zips and zooms in an erratic pattern, captivating the attention of a creature of your choice within range. The creature must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, the creature is distracted for 1 minute, concentrating on following the spark and unable to take any actions other than moving to stay close to it. On a successful save, the creature is only momentarily distracted for 1 round.
At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 1st level or higher, you can choose two effects from the list above to activate simultaneously. For example, you could blind a creature with glitterdust and then distract them with the erratically moving spark.
