Grasp of Darkness

You reach out with a hand of decaying shadows. You make a melee spell attack to touch a target creature. A creature you touch takes 2d6 necrotic damage. The touched creature must then make a Constitution saving throw or have its eyes cloyed with darkness, treating all lighting as being one step lower for the duration of the spell (bright light becomes dim light, dim light becomes darkness, and darkness becomes magical darkness).

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 1st.
