Soul Siphon

Effect

Make a ranged spell attack against the target. On hit, the target takes 1d12 necrotic damage, and on each of your turns for the duration, you can use your action to deal 1d12 necrotic damage to the target automatically. The spell ends if you use your action to do anything else or break concentration. The spell also ends if the target is ever outside the spell's range or if it has total cover from you. If the target dies when Soul Siphon is in effect, the target's soul gets trapped into the material component, provided the material component is of adequate quality, depending of the target's CR as noted in the table below.
Unless otherwise stated or decided upon by the DM; Soul Siphon has no effect on Constructs or Undead. The target must also have a score of 2 or more in either Intelligence or Wisdom.

Manifestation

A wispy beam of necromatic energies siphons the target's soul into a piece of arcanite flux between you and the target.

Material Components

A piece of arcanite fit for the target's CR in which the soul of the target will be trapped
